SUDBURY VALLEY NEW HORIZONS BAND

Updated 06/20/10

Soundfiles for your practicing

Novice band

• Largo and Finale - this is an old arrangement of two themes from the symphony, and there is no demo file - Listen to the whole symphony, too.  It is WONDERFUL! "New World" Symphony #9 by Antonin Dvorak.  The largo is the 2nd movement and the Finale is the 4th movement (Allegro con fuoco)
• I can't get a link for Peasant Village Dance, so go to JWPepper.com and search for the piece - there is a streaming sound file there.  YouTube link to a Bulgarian Dance showing dancing to music with the uneven pulse.
• See below for those you are playing with the Intermediates

Combined piece - everyone

• F - we will do this as a combined piece with everyone.  A great march!

Intermediate

• WaltzingFeline Fun!
• Wheatland - A great hoedown!  This is an old arrangement and there is no demo.  I don't have a recording that I can easily digitalize - sorry
• LFB - Spanish March.  This, too, is an old arrangement and there is no demo. I did find a YouTube performance (these performances are usually illegal...) He doesn't do it the way I do, but it is a solid performance (except the 16th notes rush!)  Here is a slower version if you want to work on it and the other is too fast to play along with. (this version is short on dynamics and has a lot of wrong notes and they, too, rush the 16th notes!)
• AC - an exciting piece!  Don't be put off by the 5/4 - it isn't as bad as it seems!
• FotG - this is a standard band piece, rearranged to be slightly easier than the original, taken from ideas in Norse mythology. (this link is now OUR version)
• West Side Story - We don't own the demo, so again, this is a link to the publisher's website.
