And I'd love for the current Crown design team and brass section to take a crack at that concept and source material. I'm partial to his Partita. And photos of people holding koalas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I arranged a percussion feature for the GSC corps the King’s Regiment back in 1977 using a short section of a nautical piece Jack Pratt suggested it, and he played it for me from his massive record collection when I was at his home back in late 76. i wrote it for brass quintet and percussion. The younger judges dug it, but some of the older drum judges said it did not count because it had a little brass in it. Jack would go at those judges in critique like crazy! I forget the name of the piece, sad to say. My all time favorite opener is Crown Imperial. I arranged it for my band in 78 as our opener. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
