Leiston Suite to be made available in treble clef

In what is a departure for OBP, we have decided to make a version for treble clef instruments that makes it suitable for players who read music for trombone, euphonium or E flat tuba in that clef. Also a part for E flat tenor horn will be included in this version and the two trumpet parts are suitable to be played by two cornets.

To top this all off will will also produce a full version which includes all of the parts from the original and treble clef versions, making it a perfect product for conservatories, colleges or other education establishments where a large number of different instrumental combinations would be able to perform it.

We will announce when this is ready across our social media channels and if it is successful, we will look at trying the same thing for other pieces in the catalogue.
