PARP ! - a collection of thirty original compositions.
Set at a Junior Band level, PARP ! follows a flexi scoring formula of mixed brass players; requiring a minimum of 4 brass players - but the maximum number is endless.
The pieces are predominantly groove based and seek to take participants through a wide range of styles and musical identities.
In the instance of using just four brass players, playing just the top part in each case will provide a cohesive performance.
Rush Hour - The very nature of the title suggests pace and a persistent foot-on-the-gas approach.
Of course, the reality can be very different with congestion and traffic at a standstill.
However, looking on the positive side of things, this piece is driven along by a constant rock beat and feel, suggesting that our destination is reached as planned.
