So Much Fun for Community Band!
So happy to finally play parts of Robert Russell Bennett's Old American Dances! This Grade 3 arrangement by James Curnow is perfect for my community band. The Western One-Step and Wallflower Rag are so much fun and really capture that Americana feel. It's challenging enough to be rewarding, but totally achievable for weekend band practices. Highly recommend for enjoyment!
