The dragonflies will be buzzing around your concert stage when you select this wonderful piece for your concert program. Ideal to strengthen brass players and teach some elementary ear training, the brass are featured playing the melodic line on mouthpieces. The woodwinds and percussion provide a full background before the brass rejoin the group playing on their instruments through the final half of the piece. An excellent teaching tool.
