Concert Band (Score & Parts) - Grade 1
SKU: HL.4286262
Composed by Anne McGinty. MusicWorks Grade 1. Contest, Festival, Graduation, Overture. Score and parts. 74 pages. Hal Leonard #4286262. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.4286262).UPC: 073999862621. 9.0x12.0x0.335 inches.
Ingeniously built on a single melodic fragment first stated by the trumpets, the opening section of this very easy overture alternates between a bold full band statement and a more lyrical melody in the woodwinds. A contrasting slow section features a flowing melody in the woodwinds with trumpet answering statements before returning to the fast tempo. First published in 1984, this is a proven winner for beginning bands.

Reliable Entry-Level Concert Band Piece
For a Grade 1 concert band piece, 'Queenwood Overture' delivers. It's a proven winner for a reason—straightforward, easy to learn, and effective for school concerts or festivals. The score and parts are clear, allowing for quick rehearsal prep. While not groundbreaking, it’s a dependable choice to get a beginning band sounding cohesive, and the melodic fragment idea keeps it interesting enough for the audience.

So Much Fun for a Beginning Player!
I absolutely loved playing Anne McGinty's 'Queenwood Overture' with my community band! As an adult learner, finding pieces at a Grade 1 level that still sound grand and rewarding is a real treat. The way it builds from a simple melody, alternating between bold and lyrical sections, makes you feel like you're truly contributing to a proper overture. Highly recommend for any beginning band member looking for enjoyment.
