Caravan

Beginning band performed this for adjudication last week. They absolutely loved the song. Very well done, good for teaching phrasing and dynamics. Accidentals throughout also reinforce teaching of accidentals.

Played it at a school function last week after one rehearsal. The beginning band members and the more experienced players gave it their tick of approval. Good piece for linking articulation, expression, rhythm etc. to the exotic picture of long, soft-plodding camel-lines, precious goods, colourful robes and shimmering sand dunes. Used finger cymbals rather than the gong, suggested.
