Description:
This transcription for band by Randy Earles (edited by the great Frederick Fennell) of Stravinsky's 1919 version of The Firebird Suite owes its existence to the incomparable school band program, long the pride of the state of Texas. It is in the spirit of Texas' competitive band programs that caused Randy Earles to be retained to prepare this transcription, with all of the familiar reed and brass instrumental solos present in this un-cut presentation of this masterpiece. Never an easy piece, this complete presentation will challenge both conductors and players in all aspects of education and performance.
