Re: First Suite in Eb-Intermezzo

Our band is also playing First Suite, but without Intermezzo-it's a shame.

I don't understand why your director would want to play that part connected... it would change the style of the entire movement, would it not?

I agree with EEbaum, short with substance. As far as the Bb solo, if you're wondering about style, talk to the first cornet player, seeing as they will have the same thing a little later and it would be best if it was played the same way.

I have a question for you now: Our band also lacks in Eb clarinets, and during Chaconne, our director transposed the Eb clarinet part into Bb for the little oboe-flute solos shortly after C. One of the notes just doesn't seem to fit with the other parts. Any chance your director did the same thing? Does it sound odd to you?

*heh, I've been looking at this site for about a week now, and your post made me get an account. Good luck at contest- we go Tuesday*
