CreaTUNEity by Mary Cogswell
​​This 0.5, 3 part, full flex tune (playable with a minimum of 3 musicians of any instrumentation​) was created with the intent of giving  concert band musicians at the earliest stage the opportunity to improvise (with suggested notes) and create.  Basic whole, half and quarter note rhythms are found in the wind and mallet parts to allow musicians to focus on good tone production and creative opportunities (eighth note rhythms are found in the snare and suspended cymbal parts).
