Obviously my literary to brass composing comparison was not meant to be exact but to indicate that both the poetic forms and the brass band form have limitations within which the composer must function. In the brass band the form says you write for sop, solo, 1 and 2 cornet, rep, flugal, 3 horns, 2 baritones, 3 trombones, 1 or 2 euphs , Eeflat and Bbflat bass and percussion. You must use all the parts if you are writing for a contest and non contesting players in bands will not be happy if you don't write for them too. In literary terms then, a haiku or a novel. Limitations but in a different form. Dave. --
