£49.99On a Renaissance Carol - James Curnow
It's sometimes hard to find just the right piece for that middle ground between the grade 2 young band and the fully functioning grade 3 group. The importance of this growth period in the band's musicality is often overlooked byband composers. James Curnow's On a Renaissance Carol is a great intermediate step with its slightly more exposed orchestration and integral independence of parts. Subtle phrasing, dynamics and stylistic considerations helpyou take your group to new heights.
