SUGGESTED INSTRUMENTATION
The following suggested list is provided to serve as a guide for your part assignments. Any combination of
these instruments can be used at your discretion, as long as all required parts are fulfilled (as few as five
players, one per part, can perform this work).
If possible, don't be afraid to experiment with different instrumental combinations when performing this
work! These experimentations can be used as a learning tool for you and your performers for how color and
texture can change with even the smallest difference in orchestration (example: have the flutes play alone at a
particular passage, then clarinets or saxophones, then a combination of these families. What are the
differences in timbre? Does it affect the mood or emotion of the piece, and if so, how?). Use this piece, in that
regard, as an endless sea of experimentation and creative possibilities for you and your performers.
With all of this in mind, this arrangement of "Summit" should be used as an opportunity to demonstrate how
music isn't just chord progressions, electronic samples, heavy-metal grooves, or even just simply dots on a
page. It's how that music is brought to life with what we have available; what we can create from it; how
decisions of musical intent, listening to each other, and hearing these new sounds/colors/textures can impact
our perceptions of the piece; and finally, how we can use these skills for any performance situation, no matter
what the instrumentation, style, or genre may be.

PROGRAM NOTES
Summit is an energetic Grade 3 work that was originally commissioned by the Indiana Bandmasters
Association. The composition depicts a group of individuals working together as a team to forge its way up
the face of a mountain, dealing with steep cliffs and chilling winds, eventually working its way to the very top.
Thank you to Rick Granlund and IBA for making this work possible.
