LISTEN TO THIS!
"LISTEN TO THIS" is a weekly feature in our newsletter where I challenge each member of the band to listen to some great band music. Today's piece is a relatively new piece that has become a staple of concert band literature. It is short, fun, and energetic. I hope you enjoy Jack Stamp's Gavorkna Fanfare.LISTEN TO THIS!
