To answer the first question about accenting on unexpected beats in Marsalis on Music Sousa to Satchmo, the term you are looking for is "syncopation." Syncopation refers to a musical rhythm in which the emphasis is placed on normally weak beats or off-beats, creating a sense of unexpected accents.
Now, let's move on to the second question about the major sections of a wind band. In a wind band or concert band, there are generally three major sections:
1. Woodwinds: This section includes instruments such as flutes, clarinets, oboes, bassoons, and saxophones. Woodwind instruments produce sound by blowing air across or through the instrument's mouthpiece or reed.
2. Brasswinds: The brasswinds section consists of instruments like trumpets, trombones, French horns, and tubas. These instruments are characterized by a player buzzing their lips into a cup-shaped mouthpiece to create sound.
3. Percussion: The percussion section is made up of instruments that are hit, shaken, or scraped to produce sound. This category includes drums, cymbals, xylophones, marimbas, tambourines, and more.
So, the three major sections of a wind band are woodwinds, brasswinds, and percussion.
