Canterbury Overture. Barrie Gott. Beginning.

Original

Canterbury Overture composed by Barrie Gott. For concert band. Standard of Excellence in Concert. Grade 1.5. Score and set of parts. Published by Neil A. Kjos Music Company. KJ.WB235. A fresh and cheerful overture written in simple ABA form. Opening with a strong march-like feel in 2. 4 time, the beginning section has a joyous melody that is first introduced in the trumpet section. The slower B section in 3. 4 time, introduced by the clarinets, contrasts delightfully with the recurring A theme that ends the piece. This exceptional satisfying overture will challenge the early musicianship of the younger and developing players. The Standard of Excellence In Concert series presents exceptional arrangements, transcriptions, and original concert and festival pieces for beginning and intermediate band. Each selection is correlated to a specific page in the Standard of Excellence Band Method, reinforcing and expanding skills and concepts introduced in the method up to that point. Exciting parts with extensive cross-cueing are presented for every player. Accessible ranges, appropriate rhythmic challenges, and creative percussion section writing enhance the pedagogical value of the series. Sold individually, each In Concert selection includes a full Conductor Score and enough student parts for large symphonic bands. Each student part also includes correlated Warm-Up Studies. The Conductor Score comes complete with rehearsal suggestions, a composer biography, program notes, a rehearsal piano part, several ready-to-duplicate worksheets and a duplicable written quiz.
