Waiting…
“Waiting…” is an excellent accessible piece for developing concert band (grade 2.5 – 3) with level appropriate instrumentation, ranges and rhythms. The work starts with a simple melody over a clock-ticking effect and gradually progresses toward a more intense section, to end with a cozy, intimate feel. A moving, emotional moment for your concert band! Level 2.5 – 3

Noëls en français
Il est né le Divin Enfant
This is the first junior concert band piece from a new series of french traditional carols. Perhaps one the most popular carol from the french tradition, “Il est né…” (He is born, the Divine Child) is a joyful 19th-century French carol published in Airs des Noëls lorrains (1862), celebrating the Nativity with rustic French folk instruments like the oboe and bagpipe. Like all the upcoming pieces in that series, “Il est né… have been part of all my Christmas/Holiday times since my early age.
