What about the new set tune list for Grade 4 in 2010
ByBelow is the new EUSPBA rule for Grade 4 next year that requires the QMM be made up of the selected tunes (Tune list also below). What do you think of this? For example are the judges going to go mad with boredom or will it be easier to compare bands since they will be playing the same level tunes? Are the tunes in general a good choice? Does it take the fun out of picking a QMM or does it take out the misery of picking a new QMM?
EUSPBA 2/4 Set requirements:
Choose any three 2/4 march tunes from the list of approved tunes (See list on EUSPBA Website). A total of six(6) parts of music are to be played. Any of the 2/4s listed that are four parted tunes, the first two parts only shallbe played. The 2/4 Set shall not contain bridges or reprises. The music should be structured traditionally. The2/4 Set is to include a traditional attack of two three pace rolls, with the chanters sounding E on the seventhbeat. There will be no time limits associated with this set.
