Composed by John McAllister. Classical,Folk,Instructional,Multicultural,World. Score and parts. 22 pages. John McAllister #694951. Published by John McAllister (A0.1090820).Folk Dance is a simple and joyful piece for beginning band. It only uses the first five notes (typically) learned. The music alternates between tutti and individual sections, giving young players a chance to hear different timbres and practice blending tone. This piece also gives a chance for young players to play through a full page of music without stretching beginning skills too far. There is only one dynamic marked at the beginning. If the performing ensemble is ready for more, add some! Folk Dance is a fun and developmentally sound piece for beginning band. This piece directly correlates with the Foundation Warm-Up Series. This series is designed to follow most beginning band methods. The early sets focus primarily on airflow, common patterns, and reinforcing concepts presented in the method books. As the series develops, the sets become more like a traditional band warm-up, including long tones, flexibility exercises, articulation, scale patterns, and a chorale.
