The Zoo Ball - Part 2 in Bb Keith Strachan

[DE]Die Suite "The Zoo Ball", die aus zwölf leichten Stücken besteht, komponierte Keith Strachan für junge Spieler von Holz-, Blechblas- und Schlaginstrumenten. Die Besetzung ist fünfstimmig variabel.

[EN]Zoo Ball is score in five parts with various transpositions for each voice. Parts 1 & 2 are the Soprano parts. Part 1 should 'outweigh' part 2 in sound, if not in numbers, as it is often divided. Trumpets/Cornets and Clarinets should be divided accordingly between the parts. Part 3 is the Alto part. It is occasionally scored as an individual part but frequently doubles part 2 or 4. Part 4 is the Tenor part. Part 5 is the Bass part and frequently doubles part 4, either in unison or at an octave lower.

The Zoo Ball is a suite of twelve light-hearted pieces for the young wind of brass band by Keith Strachan.

It can be seen from the titles that the young player is introduced to a variety of dance rhythms that are both fun to play and enjoyable to listen to.

It is scored in five parts (some of which divide in places) so can be played by ensembles of aroung ten players up to full band. When a fuller instrumentation is available, teachers and conductors are encouraged to vary the scoring as appropriate, particularly in repeated sections. This will allow players to rest occasionally and add changes of colour to the band sound by avoiding excessive doubling.
