Basic Steps

These exercises and pieces would like to help wind ensembles focus their concentration on the perception and implementation of refined playing techniques. The goal is by practicing music “playfully” to become familiar with and get the hang of contemporary music. “Basic Steps” will talk about the following topics: Warm-up, intonation, chord colours, articulation and rhythm and will be placing particular emphasis on the genre of “Swing”. This will be accompanied by compact orchestra etudes as well as short pieces.
