Deep Dish Concert Band - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: HX.444385

"Deep Dish" is an engaging new piece for band inspired by the quintessential pizza in Chicago, from where composer James M. Stephenson hails. "Deep Dish" serves up a bluesy feel with challenging chromatic passages and saucy harmonies, and gives students the opportunity to create their own percussive sounds with kitchen utensils. A free downloadable interdisciplinary curriculum for teaching Deep Dish is available for download at www.BandQuest.org: https://composersforum.org/bq-compositions/deep-dish/ Learn more on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ComposersForum/search?query=stephenson BandQuest, an exciting series of new music and accompanying curricula for band, is a program published by the American Composers Forum. The series was started as a response to feedback from music educators that there is a pressing need for new, fresh band music. The heart of this program is new works written by a diverse group of leading American composers who have created challenging pieces that are a true departure from standard middle school repertoire. Every BandQuest project includes a residency component in which the composer works collaboratively with a middle school as they create their new piece.Many BandQuest pieces are accompanied by an interdisciplinary curriculum designed to assist students as they learn the music and to integrate each piece with non-music studies.
