a) doesn't have critical sax parts (alto and/or tenor)
b) doesn't require low woodwinds
We cannot do the following (we've done them recently):
Danza de Espana
Colliding Visions
Expectations
Japanese Pictures
Looking Up
I looked at every single grade two in the PML since the we were made aware of these changes (well, the ones I could since not every thing is online yet in 2025) and can'd find anything. Surely, I'm missing some. Here's what I have:
Flutes - Strong (don't lack any confidence)
Clarinet - Strong-ish (also don't lack confidence)
Alto Saxes - Weak is being generous, and I'm losing my strong ones
Trumpets - Decent but lack confidence
French Horns - Strong, confident
Trombones - Decent but lack confidence in upper range (top line Bb and above)
Euphonium (only 1) - same as above but may not have them for much longer
Tuba - Do their job, but only have two and it may only be one soon
Percussion - Can play anything you put in front of them.
No double reeds or low woodwinds and I don't have any to spare to switch.
