l Anthem for Peace—Ed Huckeby. This beautiful
ballad is a wonderful example of effective lyrical
writing style. The masterful orchestration serves to
enhance the flowing melodic lines and colorfully
unique harmonies. A sensitive alto saxophone solo
in the middle section provides a great opportunity
to highlight your soloist or sax section. A subtle
cultural, social, and musical "declaration for peace"
at your next performance.

Fantasia on Bogoroditse Devo—
arr. Frederick Speck.
Inspired by the beautiful
choral original, the chant-like gracefulness of the
melodic source serves as the musical cornerstone.
The music unfolds from a quiet opening, inviting the
listener into a distant, reserved first statement of the
main melody. The work then develops as a broad
arch, becoming increasingly vivid until an exuberant
arrival and release by the full ensemble. A very nice
setting for mature bands.

For Heaven and the Future—
Samuel R. Hazo.
The title of this expansive
work draws inspiration from a poem by Robert
Frost, and the thematic material is a creative
interpretation of the English folk song Seventeen
Come Eleven. Differing from Vaughan William's
treatment, this setting remains at a slow tempo
throughout, undergoing a myriad of harmonic and
textural variations. It's beautifully and effectively
paced with key impact points occurring at just the
right moments.

Grace—Brian Balmages. This stunning and
emotional work is based on the single word "grace."
Largely original, the music weaves a tapestry of
solitude, tension, patience and peace. Toward the
end of the work, the melody of Amazing Grace
emerges subtly and draws the audience in further.
An emotional rollercoaster that explores great
musical depth.

The Heart's Reflection—Daniel Elder.
Originally written for eight-part mixed chorus as a
sort of tone poem, the composer has adapted this
profound work to the vibrant colors and textures of
the modern concert band. Broad and symphonic in
nature, it incorporates these tonalities to express the
underlying emotions of the original. The variety of
textures and instrumental colors enhance the tonal
spectrum of the original and bring out the expressive
nature of the work.

In These Last Days of Autumn—
Randall D. Standridge.
This emotionally charged
piece was written in memory of an aspiring rock
musician. At times nostalgic and triumphant, this
work for concert band brings together elements
of symphonic and pop music to create both a
memorial for a young life lost as well as a portrait of
the final days of autumn, fading in their golden glory.

This serene and introspective work is based on
