No Stop Rock

A Grade 1 rock anthem! It's a perfect way to keep your beginners motivated while you drill them on that new concept called 'eighth notes. ' Lots of repetition of simple eighth note figures will help your young band players enter the fascinating world of the divided beat with ease. This solid minor key rock-type piece will also help to keep your audience attentive by letting them hear a bit of a style they are so accustomed to. The overwhelming rhythmic nature of the piece also makes it a possible choice for use with an elementary level massed band. When faced with more than 100 beginners at a time, one likes to do music that has a beat they can hang on to! Whether it's for a small one-school band or a giant massed group, this one is sure to work for you.
