Last year we had a concert with our band. The first half we used the tradiotional 
brassband setup. The second half we made a big band setup and played only the 
lighter genre. We had a stage which was like this. (Look from the side.) So it's 
has differents in heights.

percussion, basses trombones
----------------------------------------------  middle section
				-------------------------------------------     cornets		
								----------------------------------  conductor

The audience liked this new setup very much, because it really was something 
new.
