l Atlas Rising—Carl Strommen. The inspiration
for this regal work came from the statue of the
Titan Atlas lifting the universe on his shoulders.
The opening sounds of the majestic chords relay
remarkable strength of this feat as the texture grows
and intensifies. The monumental effort then leads to
an uptempo and spirited change of tempo, relaying
a victorious sense of splendor and success.

Bringer of War—Brian Balmages. Inspired by
the masterful work "The Planets" by Gustav Holst,
this original piece pays homage to the dramatic first
movement. Using only six notes in all instruments,
the music has the powerfully ominous quality of
Mars that has enthralled generations of listeners with
bold, majestic melodies and rhythmic ostinato.
A unique original by a master composer.

The Dragon—Rob Grice. This descriptive work
for young musicians is as big, bold, and majestic
as the mythical and mighty creature it represents.
Stories of these grand creatures have captivated
audiences throughout history and continue to thrill
us in movies and on television. Written well within
the capabilities of young musicians, this work
portrays these grand creatures in an impressive
manner that befits their legendary status.

Fable—Erik Morales. Having the sound of an
epic movie soundtrack, this work was inspired by
old collections of children's stories such as Aesop's
Fables and Grimm's Fairy Tales. Broad, memorable
themes create images that jump off the page while an
energetic and highly rhythmic pulse drives the work
forward. Just as the written stories did, the music
maintains a veil of darkness and intrigue that captures
the imagination of the listener from start to finish.

Festival at Camelot—David Bobrowitz.
Capture the energy and activity of a festival in
King Arthur's Camelot. Staccato eighths and
quick sixteenth-note figures provide the feeling
of movement, and traditional yet interesting
harmonies provide the atmosphere of the locale.
Written in two distinct sections with active and
engaging material in all of the band parts, the
energetic pace never ceases.

The Gates of Horn—Peter Terry. In the
Odyssey, dreams come into the world through one
of two gates. False dreams come through the gates
of ivory while true dreams enter through gates of
horn that tell the user of things to be, or truth. This
decidedly dramatic piece for band alternates an
echoing syncopated fanfare and a strong yet lyrical
theme, with the two contrasting ideas chasing each
other throughout the piece.

The Legend of El Muerto—Roland Barrett.
An 1800s folk tale from No Man's Land in Texas
provides the backdrop to this haunting adventure
piece. The thrilling music will have imaginations
running wild with images of sinister cattle rustlers
and horse thieves, complete with a trumpet solo
providing the stolen horse's whinny. A delightful and
fun addition to beginning band literature.

l
Morpheus—Randall Standridge. In mythology,
Morpheus is the god of dreams, and this work paints
a peaceful dreamscape of sound where instrumental
colors and textures shift and weave as they blend
into one another. The meandering ostinatos and
chordal shifts represent the sometimes illogical and
often startling way dreams can change and evolve
throughout the night.

Oceanus—Peter Terry. Young students are
fascinated with music inspired by myths and
legends, and this is such a piece. Named for the sea
god of Greek and Roman mythology, he was the
father of rivers and streams, personified as a huge
river that circled the earth. The music begins with
the gentle rippling of water as it endlessly circles the
world, building into a depiction of the growing waves
of the deep ocean and dramatic storms that prowl
the surface of the waters.

Pandora's Lament—Rob Romeyn.
This powerfully poignant work depicts Pandora
unleashing all of life's miseries on the world. A
bold and forceful opening gives way to a beautiful,
haunting melody with lush and mournfully dissonant
harmonies that gradually build to a climax of emotion
and power. As the music ends, we are reminded of
the hope that was also in the box. A meaningful and
significant addition to concert band repertoire.

battles. This exciting concert overture with its bold
themes captures the majesty and beauty of this
mighty mythical creature.

Poseidon: God of the Seas—
Jonathan McBride.
The power and fury of the
Greek god Poseidon comes alive in this thrilling
programmatic epic. Raise the sounds of angry seas
and furious storms with your ensemble as Poseidon

of his son. Pulsating rhythms, heroic melodies, and

Secrets of Area 51—John Prescott.
This intriguing work takes us inside the mysterious
military base in Nevada known as Area 51. Is the
wreckage of alien spacecraft and perhaps even
captured or recovered aliens secretly housed there?
We'll take an imaginary look into that top-secret
facility through music and special effects provided
by pop bottle flutes.

Spontaneous Beings—Brian Balmages.
This work is based on an authentic folk music
tradition and oral history of a large group of
Native American tribes of northeastern North
America. The title is a literal translation of their
name for themselves. The piece relies heavily on
traditional percussion instruments, with optional
substitutes suggested, in an approachable yet
powerful presentation.

Sunchaser—Carol Britten Chambers. The
contemplative opening measures set the mood,
depicting the dawn of a new day. As time passes and
the day progresses, the music picks up momentum,
quickly launching into a spirited adventure full
of energy and life. This beautiful work is rife with
musical imagery, highlighting the strengths of your
young band so they'll sound their best.

This Cruel Moon—John Mackey. This terrific
work is a wonderful adaptation of the middle
movement of the larger work Wine-Dark Sea:
Symphony for Band. It's meant to represent the
song of the beautiful and immortal nymph Kalypso
who saves Odysseus, falls in love with him, and
ultimately loses him. The music is very expressive,
with quiet moments of tenderness that swell to
moving climaxes, finally subsiding to close with a
moving touch of sadness and loss.

Triumphal March of the Titans—
Jerry Nowak.
Add an impressive element of pomp
and majesty to your performances with this regal
original processional march. The impressive writing
for winds is further enhanced by sections that
feature the percussion section in a grand manner.
Perfect for concerts or graduation processionals.

The Winged Serpent—Brian Drake.
The composer wrote this piece to give his band
experience with chromatic music. This edgy
work spins a musical picture of the Mayan
feathered serpent god and uses minor seconds
and trombone glissandi to help give the piece a
slithering sound. Portraying the mythical serpent
who flew to the sun and burned its tongue, it's an
exciting, well-written work.
