Arizona Sun: Conductor Score & Parts

This multi-level piece includes a full set of parts for grade 1 as well as a full set for grade 2 ensembles. Mix and match the parts as you need—perfect for mixed-ability ensembles! Representing one of Mark Wood’s favorite places to visit, Arizona Sun was inspired by the sheer beauty and power of the American southwest, specifically that of the Grand Canyon State. The work is in the key of A major, and based on a traditional blues progression that can be found in early rock and roll. Arizona Sun features two sections that allow the players to improvise. For string orchestra with optional rock rhythm section parts. (3:00)
