​
Swing, Salsa, Blues, Reggae, Rock, Funk—and more! Fun to play!
​
For middle school and high school players on up!
​
The BRASS GROOVES series is designed to encourage young students to get involved in small ensembles, but the books have proven to be a lot more versatile.
​
COLLEGES — Perfect for student quintets to supplement the traditional repertoire; nice recital encores; especially effective on casual gigs. Ideal for faculty quintets on school concerts.
GIGGING QUINTETS — Play the charts down once or twice and they are good to go! Also great for background gigs…maybe even dancing!
COMMUNITY BANDS — Start a quintet within your band. Play before, or within band concerts, or for other community events.

Great idea...Great charts...a nice crossover from concert band to jazz band and a cool way to get kids excited about playing in
small ensembles.

Dallas Brass is onto something really special. Along with gifted writer John Wasson they have created a valuable pedagogical contribution certain to be a popular addition to any music library. Brass Grooves is a win-win for all.

Finally, a collection of program pieces that entertains the audience, challenges the individual student, and motivates student brass ensembles to work independently. Once my students had prepared one piece for a concert, they began planning to continue performing other pieces at future concerts and festivals!
Very cool.
