A set of 50 short compositions for wind band
Each miniature is between 45 seconds and 3 minutes in duration.
There are approximately 80 total minutes of music.
I've been thinking that you can mix and match them, do miniatures in between longer compositions, use them as an opener or closer on a concert (or on either side of intermission), use the longer ones as standalone works, or even use them as sight reading or as a way to build up a new/challenging piece with limited time.
Payment can be made with Venmo ( @Michael-Mikulka ) or with Credit Card
