Brand New!
A suite of 3 concise, jazz-influenced movements
I. A Quiet Dance (Quasi Tango)
II. Whirlpool in Blue (3/4 Ballad)
III. Leaping Lizards (Swing)
Duration: 4:32
Approximate AMEB standard: Grade 6
Range: High A flat
Notes: Ideally a suite of 3 movements but each movement can be used as a short standalone work.
Style: Happy Funk
Duration: 3:00
Approximate AMEB standard: Grade 7
Range: High A (with alternatives)
Notes: The emphasis here is on good lip flexibility combined with great 16th note subdivision and feel. Once you master the opening 4 bars you have this one made!
Style: 12/8 Shuffle
Duration: 2:30
Approximate AMEB standard: Grade 6
Range: High Bb (with alternatives)
Notes: A very manageable and fun 12/8 groove with some cool, unison figures with piano accompaniment. Articulation will be key.
