Howdy folks,
I’m a bachelors student auditioning for the marching band at my graduate school in the fall, and I’m curious to find some audition pieces. I’m not a music major, but have been playing and practicing for about 11 years now, and have done pretty well for myself.
Anyways, I have typically used the shout section of Count Basie by the Gordon Goodwin Big Phat Band as my audition go-to, but it’s a little too short for this audition, which asks a 3-4 minute etude. I am used to playing jazz, show tunes, funk, and marching arrangements, but I enjoy and am not opposed to playing classical music.
I’ve found the 9 Grand Solos de Concert, which I would love to play, but I am open to other suggestions anyone may have. I don’t mind paying a bit for an online PDF, but I don’t want to order or wait for a book to get shipped to my house. What suggestions does anyone have? Thank you in advance!
