Originally designed as a response to the rapidly changing creative world of 2020 amidst the unprecedented COVID disruptions; these arrangements were created as a motivational tool for home use over the summer months for students and teachers alike, the intension being that the performer learns to play all the parts to each piece while learning and experimenting how to record themselves, how to make a click-track, how to multi-track, mix, video-edit and much more….

Description

This Tin Pan Alley Pop Song composed by Hanley with lyrics by Ballard MacDonald was first published in January 1917. Although it is not the state song of Indiana, it is perhaps the best-known song that pays tribute to the Hoosier state. Since 1946, it has been performed during pre-race ceremonies before the Indianapolis 500. Now recognised as a jazz standard,

“Every now and again a recording that is both truly outstanding and will have great appeal to brass band listeners appears on the shelves. We are delighted to make it the first recipient of our CD of the Year Editors Award.”

Kenneth Crookston
British Bandsman

“Just wanted to give a general shout-out to SUPERBRASS - who are truly super-bad; for my money, one of the most exciting large brass ensembles EVER.”

Rex Richardson
