More about this title

About the Arranger: Paul Murtha

Paul Murtha has built a career arranging accessible, high-energy music for marching ensembles and concert bands. His arrangements consistently balance musical substance with the realities of school programs, making contemporary hits engaging without overwhelming student musicians.

Why we love this

These arrangements capture the infectious grooves that make Black Eyed Peas tracks irresistible to audiences while staying playable at Grade 3.5/4. The collection gives you four distinct stand tunes with genuine pop credibility, so your band sounds current and relevant rather than retro.

What to expect

Contemporary urban pop energy translated into marching band textures. The grooves sit in that sweet spot between hip-hop rhythm and brass band punch, with enough danceability that your students will feel the momentum in their bodies.

Who it's for

Directors programming football season entertainment who need repertoire their students actually want to play. These arrangements work for bands confident at Grade 3.5 and above, especially those serving communities where popular music is the musical baseline.

How to get the most out of it

  • Keep the rhythm section locked and driving. These tracks live on pocket and forward motion, so your drumline and bass need to be relentless about staying together.
  • Let the horns carry the melodic hooks with confidence. Don't over blend them; let the recognizable riffs cut through.
  • Manage the energy arc across all four pieces. Since these are designed as stand entertainment, vary the intensity so you're not peaking on the first tune.

How to use it

Deploy these during football halftime entertainment or pep assembly performances where you need quick hits that land hard with non-specialist audiences. The collection also works as a cluster during concert programming if you're building a pop-influenced set.

Skills your students will build

  • Feeling and maintaining straight-eighth grooves and syncopated rhythmic patterns
  • Executing clear articulations that define modern pop style rather than traditional march style
  • Balancing ensemble blend while keeping melodic lines prominent and recognizable
  • Responding to contemporary musical phrasing and dynamic shaping
