Charm - Concert Band

Charm by Kevin Puts. For Concert Band (Score & Parts). BandQuest. Grade 3-4. Published by American Composers Forum.

Composed by 2012 Pulitzer Prize-winner Kevin Puts, Charm is a short, joyful piece written in the meter 7/8. Of the title, Puts writes, “I decided to call it Charm because, for me, the music conjures up magic, good-luck charms and such, and I was also thinking of the other meaning of the word, that intangible quality possessed by certain people and places that truly can cast a spell.” Free interdisciplinary curriculum for the piece is available for download at http://www.BandQuest.org.
