Classics Remixed (with Track)

Classics Remixed is a series for beginning band from composer & educator Ed Kiefer, which infuses the best classical music with hip hop, funk, and more. Each piece includes an electronic track with an engaging drum'n'bass beat that complements the arrangements, varying as the piece progresses, yet remains simple enough to make it easy to play along. This is a great way to keep students engaged and help them realize the commonalities between their pop music and other styles!
