Blue Bus Workshop by Quincy C. Hilliard Concert Band - Sheet Music

SKU: P3.B160123

BLUE BUS WORKSHOP was commissioned by the Carman-Ainsworth Community Schools Music Department of Flint, Michigan, in honor of Mr. Dan Martin for twenty years of volunteer service. Winston Churchill once said, "We make a living by what we do, but we make a life by what we give." Dan Martin has spent a significant part of his adult life humbly giving back to our C-A community. Throughout our community, Dan and the "Blue Bus" have become synonymous with each other. From moving equipment throughout the district, driving throughout the state for various competitions and Festivals and even a few trips to Disney World in Orlando, Florida, Dan has always been there to ensure our equipment arrives safely. In addition to driving the Blue Bus, Dan has several other talents to offer including: Band Camp Chaperone, prop design and construction, building and re-designing equipment, screen-printing shirts in his basement, re-designing the interior of the bus each year to match the needs of current ensembles and supervision of the painting of the bus in his driveway as part of an Eagle Scout project. In short, Dan has been the volunteer extraordinaire! Elizabeth Andrew noted, "Volunteers do not necessarily have the time, they just have the heart." Dan Martin has a huge heart for our C-A community. Although we commissioned this piece as a tangible show of gratitude to Dan, we believe that the best way we can show our appreciation of Mr. Martin is not through words, but through action. Follow his lead and find a way to serve the students in your community!BLUE BUS WORKSHOP is a work created to allow the percussion players to experiment with sounds. Percussion section feature.
