life. The bold drama of this doomed island nation

melodies and stark musical contrasts. As the
new day begins, the fateful event ensues, with
the tension building before reaching the ultimate
stunning climax. Truly epic, it's soon to be a

l Attack of the Inanimate ObjectsChris
Campbell. Ever had one of those days where
everything went wrong? The alarm didn't go off,
the car wouldn't start, your favorite baton snapped
for no reason? This work is about such a day, when
it seems like you're under attack from every object
in the room. But don't worry, this tune, which can
be performed with as few as four percussionists or
as many as thirteen, assures you that everything
will get better soon.

accents and exciting percussion lines. Lyrical
woodwind passages precede a nice middle

baritone. The finish is strong and vibrant, making
this the contest winner you are looking for!

The Banks of Green Willowarr. Robert
Longfield. Written by British composer George
Butterworth in 1913, this classic work is based
on two folk songs: The Banks of Green Willow and
Green Bushes, the latter also appearing in works by
Grainger and Vaughan Williams. This composition
remains his most popular and is regarded as an
anthem for unknown soldiers. This masterful
adaptation for winds makes for an outstanding
concert selection.

4 Bayside ReflectionsLisa Galvin. Inspired
by the scenery and colorful lakes of Michigan's
Upper Peninsula, this is the perfect addition to
your developing band's library. The simple yet
strong beginning gives way to a beckoning nautical
section introduced by a solo trumpet, which is then
followed by a recapitulation of the opening themes.

n Be Still, My Soularr. James Swearingen.
This beautiful hymn setting is dramatic, reflective
and musically very powerful. While the band

are included should you desire to provide your
audience with a spectacular performance that
won't soon be forgotten.

as a set of variations, this glorious arrangement
of the Irish hymn is a gorgeous selection for any
concert or contest. A Celtic feel is maintained

Before Their TimeBarry E. Kopetz. The
lives of youth are precious, and when we lose
them abruptly the loss is magnified. This piece
commemorates two such losses. The expressive
opening captures bittersweet emotions before
moving into a more active section that reflects all
the energy and vigor of youth. The natural energy
of the music builds to a glorious moment as two
musical climaxes punctuate the captivating and
poignant conclusion.

BenedictionJohn Stevens. Originally scored
for brass choir, this marvelous version for full band
features flowing melodies and counterlines in a rich
chorale-like setting. The solo part at the beginning
and end is scored for euphonium, but is cued for
clarinet, trumpet or trombone. Great for teaching
a lyric style of playing, and also as an effective
performance piece.

moments makes this a tour de force showcase for
your band on their concert or festival performances.

A Blessed Hymn (Come, Thou Fount of Every
Blessing)arr. Thomas Kahelin. This sensitive
setting of a familiar hymn is careful to keep the
beautiful melody unaltered while adding fresh
harmonies and a emotional tutti climax. The power
of Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing comes from
the simplicity of the melody, and recasting it with a
fresh accompaniment serves to highlight and bring
out its natural appeal.

Blue and Green MusicSamuel R. Hazo.
The stunning artwork of Georgia O'Keeffe is no
more apparent than in her famous 1921 painting
entitled "Blue and Green Music." Subtle and bold
colors are captured in this musical representation
of the artwork. Based on a single theme that is
manipulated and varied throughout, the piece
progresses from delicate mallet percussion
effects up to climactic impact points for the entire
ensemble. Ms. O'Keeffe explained her idea that
"music could be translated into something for the
eye." This piece translates it back into something
for the ear.

n Brave SpiritRandall D. Standridge. This
authentic work captures the spirit of Chinese music
beautifully with the use of a pentatonic scale, a
synthesized mandolin, and solos for flute and
piccolo. Brave Spirit begins with a slow introduction
featuring a flute/piccolo duet, then launches into
a stirring, tom-tom driven fast section. A peaceful
middle section featuring the synthesized mandolin
sound interjects before the fast melody returns to
bring this wonderful Chinese-style band work to a
stirring conclusion!
