Mechanical Monsters (Grade .5, Standridge), Concert Band

Check Out My New Album! randallstandridge.hearnow.com/
Mechanical Monsters was born out of my love of two things:
1) B-Monster Movies from the 50’s and 60’s.
2) Teaching Beginning Band
When writing for young band, I always try to ask myself “what would I have LOVED to play at that age?” In this work, the sounds of metal and gears are used to overlay a repeating, plodding groove that suggests something shambling it’s way across a darkened countryside, drawing ever closer to the unsuspecting city dwellers, completely unaware of the havoc that is about to befall them. My younger self would have relished this mental image, and I hope your young band students will too.
Peace, Love, and Music (and imminent destruction, haha!)

[@leah.leah.leah.]

Lemme tell you a story. I, an alto sax and clarinet player, had a friend who was a trombone player. She was the only one. So a couple days before the concert, she told the teacher she couldn’t do the low brass part alone. So me, being the dang near perfect mate I am, volunteered to help. My teacher had an extra baritone sax. My friend convinced me to ask if I could learn the baritone sax in a day for this dang song and I asked, and he said sure. So here I am, the day before the performance, trying to figure out this huge thing.
