*Based on Availability – please ask for the add-ons that are available for the show you have chosen.
(The Narrator used on “Another Place, Another Time” and “Dreams” is available through the commissioning school at an additional charge. If you are interested please let me know.)
*All shows can be made available in 3 WIND versions: Full Wind Instrumentation®, Reduced Wind Instrumentation® and Simplified Version®. If you wish to order more than 1 WIND version of a show, it is $1,250 for one version / $1,350 for two versions / $1,425 for all three versions of the winds.
Since these versions are designed to overlap with each other, many directors purchase ALL 3 and pick the parts out they need from each version. For example, if your trombone/baritone section is smaller, you can use the Reduced Instrumentation® for the Trombone/Baritone (2 parts vs. 3 in the Full Instrumentation®). You may need the 3 Clarinet parts from the Full Instrumentation® version and you might have young players in your trumpet section so they can play the parts from the Simplified Version®. The music is designed so that you can pick the parts out of each version that work best for your band and build exactly the instrumentation that you need!
Larger band programs frequently utilize the Simplified Version® for their 2nd and 3rd bands. These parts also work as an overlay to both the Full Instrumentation® and Reduced Instrumentation® versions of our music. The technique and range have been edited for less experienced players. The Simplified Version® also stands on its own so the options are limitless.

The difference in the Reduced Wind Instrumentation vs. Full Wind Instrumentation shows is…
1. The instrumentation is reduced and re-orchestrated as follows…
a. 2 Flutes reduced to 1 Flute part
b. 3 Clarinets reduced to 2 Clarinet parts
c. 2 Alto Saxophones reduced to 1 Alto Saxophone part
d. 3 Trumpets reduced to 2 Trumpet parts
e. 2 French Horns reduced to 1 French Horn part (Bb French Horn parts are also included)
f. 3 Low Brass (Tbn/Bar) reduced to 2 Low Brass parts (Bb Treble Clef Baritone parts are also included)
Simplified Version vs. Reduced Wind Instrumentation and Full Wind Instrumentation shows is…
1. The instrumentation is the same as the reduced instrumentation version.
2. Range is limited. (Primarily, the 1st trumpets do not go above G on the top of the staff)
3. The rhythmic density is watered a great deal in most cases where the 16th notes have been completely eliminated. In other instances where a show might have continuous 16th notes, the players have “anchor points” in those lines. An occasional 8th is thrown in so the players can anchor on the downbeats as well as catching a breath if necessary.
