More about this title
About the Composer: Michael Story
Michael Story is a prolific composer and arranger whose catalog spans concert band, jazz band, and wind ensemble repertoire. His writing for young and intermediate ensembles demonstrates a keen ear for what engages student musicians while maintaining musical integrity and technical clarity.
Why we love this
Story writes with infectious energy that translates directly to student motivation. The precise dynamic and articulation markings turn what could be a generic opener into something that demands technical control and musical purpose from every section.
What to expect
Barnburner charges forward with relentless, punchy forward motion. The writing bristles with articulation and dynamic contrast, creating a sense of controlled explosion rather than simple loudness.
Who it's for
Grade 2 bands that have solid foundational technique and are ready for material that demands rhythmic precision and dynamic control. This works equally well for ensembles seeking a high-energy contest selection or a concert piece that leaves audiences energized.
How to get the most out of it
- Lock the rhythmic punctuations across all sections. The furious energy hinges on precision articulation, not just volume.
- Shape the dynamics with intention. Changes in dynamic level should feel deliberate, not accidental.
- Balance clarity in the midst of full-band tuttis. Even at peak energy, individual line integrity matters.
How to use it
Its concise 2:30 duration and attention-grabbing character make it ideal as either a concert opener that establishes energy or a closer that sends the audience out on an adrenaline rush. It's also a strong festival or contest selection for bands ready to showcase technical precision and ensemble control.
Skills your students will build
- Precision articulation in rapid passages
- Dynamic contrast and control across full band
- Rhythmic unison and section alignment
- Reading and executing accents and staccato markings
