CaptiveEd Kiefer. This sophisticated piece
employees modern compositional techniques that
emulate the sound of electronic instruments so
effectively you'll swear there is a synthesizer being
played. Though the popular carol O Come, O Come
Emanuel is used, this is not a holiday piece but a
most creative and serious concert work for contest
and festival performances. Colorful, unique and
totally refreshing, it's a selection that you won't
want to overlook.

celebratory piece that is full of fanfare and sparkle
from start to finish.

Celtic FarewellMichael Sweeney. Music has
the power to help us heal after the loss of loved
ones. Here the beloved traditional Scottish ballad
The Parting Glass is combined with an original
melody to create a beautifully paced and sensitive
musical memorial. A key element of this work is
the use of Highland bagpipes that adds to the
Celtic flavor. If a pipe player is not available, this
part is cued in multiple band parts or you can use
a synthesizer with bagpipe patch. A moving tribute
for any memorial.

Chant RitualsElliot Del Borgo. Take a close
look at this powerful contemporary work, which
makes use of two contrasting thematic statements
to exploit the many rich timbres and rhythmic
resources of the symphonic band. A highly
chromatic, slow middle section leads to a chant,
sung by members of the band on the syllable Ah
in sustained, exotic-sounding harmony, which adds
remarkable depth to the work! The percussion
writing is also extremely effective. A strong choice
for concert or contest!
