Hey, thanks... yeah, I thought it might be pushing the edge speed
wise ... but if I can just get the effect, I would be happy. These
are pretty fair players.
Thanks again,
Dean

You won't get much of a shake, maybe only one "battement", but that
would be enough for the effect. But if the band is a "basic" band,
maybe they won't have the chops to do it at that tempo. A pro band
will do it regardless.

I writing a piece for basic stage band instrumentation, wherein
the tempo is a half note gets 84 (swung). Is it feasible for brass
players to do a shake (Jazz Font Symbol # 113) on a quater-note
at that speed? The quarter is followed immediately by an accented
eighth on a downbeat, if that matters.
Thanks,
Dean
