Summary of This Book

66 Festive and Famous Chorales for Band offers a varied and timeless collection of 66 famous chorales, arranged for concert band by Frank Erickson. Designed in four parts (SATB), these harmonizations provide particularly rich musical material to work on sound quality and vertical listening, whether in concert band rehearsals, practical ensemble-oriented music classes, or section coaching.

Thanks to clear and balanced writing, the collection becomes an excellent tool to refine intonation and chord stability, while developing phrasing, musical breathing, and dynamic control. The possibility to perform it with a full ensemble or in small groups (from quartet to larger ensembles) also makes it a very practical resource to work on voice balance, attack precision, and legato continuity, with an immediate goal: making the ensemble sing.

Between structured warm-up and musicianship training, these chorales provide an ideal setting to establish good playing habits: active listening, timbre homogeneity, rhythmic alignment, and harmonic construction. An essential resource for conductors and educators seeking chorales for concert band that are both educational and musical.
