So Fun to Play with the Band!
Playing 'How to Train Your Dragon' with my community band was an absolute blast! The Grade 2 difficulty level meant it was challenging enough to be engaging but totally achievable for weekend rehearsals. I felt like we really sounded like the movie score. Johnnie Vinson did a great job making these powerful and tender themes accessible. Highly recommend for pure enjoyment!
