Adventurous melodies combine with
galloping rhythms to drive away the danger
for a grand and victorious ending.

Sing Hi Down
arr. Barry E. Kopetz.

The original title of this charming folk song
is The Two Little Sisters, and it contains

throughout the song. After a majestic
introduction, the piece begins in earnest at a
brisk tempo with the melody combined with
a lively off-beat accompaniment. Arpeggios

dance-like interlude that leads to the close,
capturing the essence of this joyful tune.

Creepy Crawley Critters
Earl J. Fox, Jr.
Very Easy
Creepy Crawley Critters is an entertaining
piece that beginning bands will enjoy
playing; clarinets don't cross the break,
and ranges are within the limits of first-
year players. The overall effect is one of
a small bug crawling or flying around,
annoying the members of the band. The
use of ratchet and slapstick adds to the
entertainment factor and makes it additional
fun for percussion students. For even more
entertainment value, you may want to
consider conducting with a fly swatter or
providing several swatters to students to
use when they have rests.

Flashpoint
Brendan Van Epps.
Very Easy
This highly energetic work for beginner and
developing bands captures the explosive
nature of a flash point, the temperature
at which combustible vapors ignite when
exposed to flame. Students have the
opportunity to work on articulation and
dynamics, while young percussionists have
many interesting and appealing parts to
draw their interest. A real stand out on first
year programs.

Very Easy
Composed for young musicians to perform
in their very first concert, an old favorite,
Jingle Bells is presented with an upbeat and
decidedly different twist. It's a fun variation

skills a spirited performance of this well
known Christmas carol. Sure to be a popular
programming selection for that very special
first concert.

The Wooden Clock
Gary P. Gilroy.
Very Easy
The Wooden Clock was composed for
students in the early stages of musical
development and employs basic rhythms
and techniques in a creative and fun
manner. Keeping time as a musician is
essential, and this clever work reminds
young musicians of that important
responsibility in music making. Wood blocks
are also used to mimic the ticking of a clock,
and the entire band gets involved as they
whisper "tick, tock, tick, tock" in several
places.
