This version of Shine Bright by Patrick Roszell is part of our Belwin FLEX offerings and is designed with maximum flexibility for use by any mix of instruments - wind, strings, and percussion, including like- or mixed-ensembles with as few as 5 players. The suggested instrumentation and a customizable Teacher Map will help you plan out how to best assign parts to suit your ensemble's needs. It also comes with supplemental parts for maximum flexibility. With the purchase of this piece, permission is granted to photocopy the parts as needed for your ensemble. A percussion accompaniment track is also available as a free download. String parts have been carefully edited with extra fingerings and appropriate bowings to support students in mixed ensembles playing in less familiar keys. This musical upbeat celebration of life was inspired in part by the John Steinbeck quote in The Winter of Our Discontent, It's so much darker when a light goes out than it would have been if it had never shone. Beyond the brief introduction with flute solo, the piece is persistently bright and charismatic. Shine Bright by Patrick Roszell can be used at any event, including graduations, concerts, or contests throughout the year.
