The Norwegian champion Stavanger Brass Band has launched its 'Corona Virus Vibes' music challenge through its Facebook page.

Being the brainchild of Musical Director Allan Withington it is certainly a little different (as can be seen by his introduction).

Accept the challenge

All bands have to do is accept the 'challenge' of trying something as equally different — just keep the melody, but add all you own variations of key, tempo, harmony, style and even instrumentation on the theme!!

Variations on a theme

So why not try it with a your band, a small ensemble or even go for the wackiest most inventive offering you can think of such as cornet, euphonium, side drum and ondes-martenot, or violin, bass trombone and the Vienna Children's Choir adding back up?

Come up with the best ideas — be as inventive as you possibly can — and simply enjoy yourselves making music.
