Beyond The Challenge

Designed to assist your ensemble in advancing to the next level, the opening section of this unique work combines lively and energetic mixed-meter melodic lines with syncopated underlying harmonic structures to create a distinctive musical flavor your students and audiences will love! Additionally, the middle section provides beautiful lyrical opportunities to enhance musicality development. Breaking out of the mold of the standard band keys, 'Beyond The Challenge!' challenges your students to improve their music literacy and technical skills while, at the same time, creating great music. Outstanding selection for contest or concert! ('Beyond The Challenge!' is correlated with the key development competencies presented in Ed Huckeby's Core Competencies for the Successful Development of Sightreading Skills, Book Two.)
