during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Hampton
Court, with its flowing dance feel, is followed by The
Queen Bess, which is relaxed and stately. Finally,

4 Twittering MachineBrian Balmages. Inspired
by the ambiguous 1922 artwork of Swiss-German
painter Paul Klee, this dark piece depicts a powerful
struggle between nature and machine. The haunting
melody slowly transforms as the threatening
machine around it grows, represented by a series of
layered and varied percussion sounds. A deeply rich
and powerful work for young bands.

l Un Petite Cafe a Paris (A Small Cafe in Paris)
Jeremy Bell. Capture the atmosphere of a small
Parisian cafe with this light and engaging waltz. The
very recognizable style, often heard throughout the
streets of Paris, was inspired by music performed
originally in small dance halls where waltzes were
very popular. Refreshing and lighthearted, this lilting
piece makes a fantastic addition to any concert.

4 VenomRandall D. Standridge. A thrilling work
for young concert band inspired by the predators of
the animal world that use venom to hunt their prey.
This extraordinary selection utilizes a slightly exotic
scale, bombastic as well as varied percussion
instrumentation, and biting, dissonant chords to
create a pulse pounding musical portrait of an
attack by one of these fascinating creatures.

l VirgoGeorge Sweet. A lush and dramatic piece
for concert band that reflects upon loved ones lost,
in this case in remembrance of the composer's
late brother whose astrological sign was Virgo. It's

dissonance tied together by a memorable motive.
Musically, this piece has deep meaning and
will stretch your young players' ability to achieve
musical elegance.

of the unique cultural heritage and history of a
border town on the Rio Grande. The piece imagines
a traveler emerging from the desert and joining
a wild party. As it builds to a raucous close, one
can imagine hearing the shouts of "Viva!" by the
enthusiatic celebrants. A fantastic closer for your
next concert and a great way to feature your
percussion section.

powerfully musical selection that displays this
composer's skill and creativity. Featuring rich and
dark low brass and woodwinds, they echo the
voices of a harmonious men's choir in call-and-
response with the upper woodwinds. The dramatic
arc of the piece will take your breath away as it
ascends to the resounding climax before retreating
quietly back into the darkness.

n Voyage to the Edge of the WorldLarry
Neeck. The voyages of explorers Columbus,
Magellan, Cabot, and Verrazano are portrayed
in this evocative work for concert bands. Their
bold visions of a new world are reflected in the
intense introduction, followed by the tension
and uncertainties of their perilous journeys.
Expressive and majestic, this work is a fitting
tribute to these great visionaries who bravely
explored the unknown.

Walking to the SkyRobert Buckley. An epic,
cinematic approach to celebrate humankind's
collective quest for wisdom, inspired by a
sculpture of a group of people walking skyward
into infinity. With pulsing percussion, heroic
brass, haunting melodies, sudden shifts in
dynamics, and dramatic key changes, everyone

Waltz No. 2 (from "Jazz Suite No. 2")Dmitri
Shostakovich/arr. Curnow. Originally scored for
symphony orchestra, Shostakovich's "Jazz Suite
No. 2" is notable for the addition of saxophones,
accordion and guitar. The appealing second waltz is
in a light classical style and is wonderfully adapted
for young concert bands in this arrangement.

The Water is WideDarren W. Jenkins. One
of the most endearing folk tunes of all time,
also known as O Waly, Waly; this poignant and
moving melody has been a favorite for hundreds
of years. This well crafted and playable setting
brings out all the beauty and lyric qualities of the
melody through the skillful scoring and provides
an outstanding musical work for concert band.
A touching arrangement that will enhance any
concert program.

l The Water Is Widearr. Scott Stanton. This
famous melody has been arranged to be accessible
to bands of virtually any instrumentation. The
melody is presented first for a solo instrument and
then leads to a glorious final chorus by means of
a dramatic modulation. Every instrument has the
opportunity to share in the melody, and it's carefully
scored so even the smallest bands will sound full
and mature.

4 Wayfaring StrangerBill Locklear. The beautiful
simplicity of this moving hymn is given a respectful,
touching treatment in this lyric setting. Rich and
expressive textures introduce a solo presentation
of the melody which is cross-cued for multiple
soloist options. The music grows in volume and
depth before subsiding to a quiet and hauntingly
beautiful finish.

l Westward TrekGary P. Gilroy. The first of
three works from A California Gold Rush Trilogy.
The westward movement of ambitious Americans
changed many lives - this vivid work creates a
soundtrack to their treacherous journey. Dies Irae
(Day of Wrath) is heard often in this exciting concert
opener to signify the danger, while an ostinato
created from the theme provides a positive and
energetic spirit like that of the determined people
attempting the perilous trek. Occasional meter
changes keep the listener guessing as to what
comes next, much like the weary travelers who
never knew what might be waiting ahead.

n When the Spring Rain Begins to FallRandall
D. Standridge. Inspired by the sounds of life-giving
forces of Mother Nature, this lyrical work is truly
gorgeous. A trumpet solo, accompanied by a
masterful blend of wind and percussion sounds,
introduces the lightly syncopated melody. With
thunder rolls in the bass drum and snapping fingers
imitating the sound of rainfall, this impressionistic
work is evocative and compelling.

n Where Eagles SoarSteven Reineke. The
majesty, beauty and strength of the eagle's flight
is portrayed with sensitivity and skill in this uplifting
work! This is a simply magnificent piece that sits
on the upper side of the medium-easy level due
to some brief flourishes in the woodwind parts, but
the result is spectacular. Each section is shown in
a favorable light, with idiomatic parts that show off
what they do best. Not only would this open any
concert with distinction, but it's a natural choice to
take to festival as well. Outstanding!

WhiplashRandall D. Standridge. Young bands
will explore rhythmic and motivic development in a
thrilling and exciting manner. The title has a double
meaning, referring first to the breakneck tempo,
and second to the sharp report of the whip cracking
throughout the piece. All this combines to make a
thoroughly exhilarating experience for students,
conductors and audiences!

4 Wildcat Valley FanfareMichael Sweeney.
Designed as an extended fanfare, this piece
quickly builds in intensity with each subsequent
phrase. Opening with the percussion in a stately
style, the main theme is first heard in a chorale-
like setting that grows, gathering strength
throughout, culminating in a fast-paced and
brilliant-sounding flourish.

4 Winter Milky WayYukiko Nishimura. This

a fascinating interstellar journey. With whimsical
lines and jazz-influenced harmonies, the piece
is both idiomatic and impressive - just right for
intermediate bands. A pure delight for performers
and audiences alike.
