Description
Bring your percussionists into the spotlight with the Sandpaper Concerto. This novelty piece by Norman Tailor features the “sandpaper blocks” as a solo instrument, creating a rhythmic and highly entertaining performance. Reminiscent of the classic Leroy Anderson style, the music is jaunty, lighthearted, and guaranteed to bring a smile to the audience. It is an ideal “novelty” item for family concerts or outdoor festivals, showcasing the fun and creative side of the brass band.
