First Christmas Suite - Mike Hannickel

Beginners LOVE to feel like they are playing "REAL MUSIC", even at that first winter performance. These simple arrangements of well-known carols let your students do just that. AND - the "suite" format let's you draw the beginning band's entire share of that first concert from one arrangement, if you like, saving on scarce music library funds. The sound of "Good King Wenceslas" and "Oh Come Little Children" belies the simplicity of the arrangements, and "Jolly Old St. Boogie-Claus" is just plain "riff-style" fun! They'll love this one!!

First Decree - R.W. Smith

A joyous and authoritative opening statement for the beginning band! Beginning with a flourish of woodwinds and metallic percussion, the brass section follows with a musical fanfare conveying confidence and pride in the band's newfound musical skills. The percussion section provides a bold response completing the features of each instrumental family in the concert band. Composed using the first six notes introduced in most band methods, "First Decree" is an accessible and musical showcase for your beginning band.

First Five Symphony - Timothy P. Stakem

You'll find this a real winner for first-year students. Only the second clarinets and second trumpets play more than the first five notes and they only extend one note to written B natural.
