Talk:Melodious Thunk
Notes from Small Band Repertoire Initiative
Challenges to the ensemble: rhythmic precision
Successful Solutions: Although the piece has some rhythmic challenges, none are beyond the capability of the players in a typical small college band. Most often the rhythms are played by multiple voices in the ensemble, so there is a some "safety in numbers." The piece comes together really well and is scored in such a way that limited instrumentation is not a big challenge.
