Description
This version of Rock This Band!, by Robert Sheldon is part of our Alfred FLEX offerings and is designed with maximum flexibility for use by any mix of instruments---wind, strings, and percussion, including like- or mixed-ensembles with as few as 3 players. The suggested instrumentation and a customizable Teacher Map will help you plan out how to best assign parts to suit your ensemble's needs. It also comes with supplemental parts for maximum flexibility. With the purchase of this piece, permission is granted to photocopy the parts as needed for your ensemble. A percussion accompaniment track is also available as a free download. String parts have been carefully edited with extra fingerings and appropriate bowings to support students in mixed ensembles playing in less familiar keys.
Rock This Band!, by Robert Sheldon, has a catchy bass line and handclaps start the piece, then the melody joins in, followed by a countermelody---and this all happens using only the first six notes the students have learned! (2:00) (Correlates with Sound Innovations, Book 1, Level 2).

I used to play the trombone back in 2022 for band class, and we played this song at our winter concert. I can still remember the slide positions for the starting notes, they were 6,6,3,1
