Things to consider
These arrangements work best for bands with reliable saxophone sections and the reading level to handle classical material. Order the full score first to assess balance and voicing, then order part sets for your specific instrumentation. If your group is unfamiliar with these classical works, consider pairing rehearsals with recordings so students understand the original context.
