Edition Peters Winds & Percussion Sheet Music

Teachers keep coming back to Willson Osborne's Rhapsody for Clarinet Solo and Marcel Moyse's Tone Development Through Interpretation for the Flute, both essential for clarinet and flute students respectively. Antonio Capuzzi's Andante and Rondo for Trombone and Piano and Carl Stamitz's Clarinet Concerto No. 3 in B flat round out the bestsellers, offering the kind of lyrical Romantic repertoire that works equally well in lessons and on stage.

Recent additions include Gloria Coates' Reaching for the Moon for flute, John Cage's Renga and Variations I, and Mauricio Kagel's Dressur for percussion, reflecting the catalog's commitment to 20th-century experimental and contemporary work alongside traditional forms.

John Cage's 107 titles in this collection span from playful ensemble pieces like Living Room Music for Vocalising Percussion Quartet to complex notational experiments. His work here ranges from accessible to avant-garde, making him a major presence for teachers exploring modern music. David Amram brings a composer's sensitivity to wind and brass writing, with works like Blues and Variations for Monk for Horn that blend jazz inflection with classical form. Alan Hovhaness contributed 29 titles exploring world music influences, including the percussion showcase Fantasy on Japanese Woodprints Op. 211. Harald Genzmer's 23 entries focus on solo wind and percussion writing, with the Sonata for Bass Clarinet Solo GeWV 202 representing his gift for extracting serious expressive depth from single instruments.
