We’re stepping it up a notch with some more Shared Repertoire, this week it’s Parallel Universe by Red Hot Chili Peppers

It’s fast-paced and energetic, challenging players to maintain precision while navigating driving rhythms. It’s a great track for encouraging students to listen across the ensemble rather than concentrating solely on their own part.
