I like Beyond the Cosmos because it never repeats 2 much like Pines of Rome and it changes tempo and volume a lot to keep the odeance interested, and it sounds like every interment has a cool part.

I forgot to add this. The Complete Harry Potter might be a little difficult but would sound amazing. The Magic of Harry Potter is probably too easy for our band and doesn't have all of the more important songs in Harry Potter.

Reply

11/29/2015 08:22:09 am

I agree that the complete Harry Potter is more in depth, but we would probably have to break it into two different parts since it is so long.

Anna Cassady
11/29/2015 12:52:30 pm

That would be one way to do it. I would just rather do The Complete Harry Potter because it is more in depth, as you said, and I think more our level.

Here's a Lion King one: http://www.jwpepper.com/The-Lion-King/2308245.item#.VlfFwVWrTnA (I think it's for younger bands but it sounds pretty cool)
And this a Les Miserables song by Johnnie Vinson (this is really my excuse to make everybody listen to Broadway musicals) http://www.jwpepper.com/Les-Miserables/2230068.item#.VlfHulWrTnA
And Bohemian Rhapsody arr. by Richard Saucedo
http://www.jwpepper.com/Bohemian-Rhapsody/2462596.item#.VlfJc1WrTnA
Mamma Mia! arr. by Robert Longfield (more Broadway trash from yours truly)
http://www.jwpepper.com/Mamma-Mia%21/10061641.item#.VlfJ4FWrTnA
And this is Hallelujah by Micheal Brown (slower and very pretty)

1. Equilibrium - http://www.jwpepper.com/sheet-music/search.jsp?keywords=equilibrium This might be too hard, but I think that it would sound really good if we could play it.

2. Factory Riffs - http://www.jwpepper.com/Factory-Riffs/10522788.item#.VloGcXarRD8 Although it sounds a lot like Foundry at times, I think that this could be a great song to play.

3. Ancient Desert Drone - http://www.jwpepper.com/Ancient-Desert-Drone/10460851.item#.VloHaXarRD8 This one might be too hard also, but I think that it sounds really good.
