Very easy arrangements of well-known works as 'The Blue Danube' or 'Sur le pont d'Avignon' for various instrumentations for the first experiences of ensemble playing. An optional piano part is included, to enhance the ensemble if necessary and parts are included for a wide range of instrumentations. The 2nd movement of Haydn's 'Surprise' Symphony always raises a smile and of course 'The Blue Danube' is a firm favourite. These, together with the French song 'Sur le Pont D'Avignon' and James Rae's own 'Hot Rock', provide a varied choice of styles for school ensemble sessions and concerts.
