Amazing Grace—arr. Charles J. Torian, Jr.
In this arrangement of a classic hymn, the introductory sixteen measures
are melody-only. Most parts show cue notes, allowing the conductor
to choose any single instrument, or combination of instruments, to
introduce the familiar tune. Four variants follow in contrasting styles.

cies of lyrical playing. This work is based on the hymn tune Abide with

My Lagan Love—Bill Locklear.
This Irish folk tune evokes an almost magical beauty. Its melodic
simplicity lends itself to great freedom in choosing from a lush harmonic
pallet. In this setting, the sparse opening harmonies and the solo
presentation of the melody in alto saxophone (cued in oboe) precede a
gradual thickening of the harmonic textures. The full ensemble presents
the melody again with fresh and new harmonic treatment, which leads
to a highly dramatic musical moment, and ends with quiet intensity, like
the beginning.

New Waters, Old Waves—Clif Walker.
This work was written so that the percussion section would have a
constant presence throughout while being achievable in a short amount
of time. The colors of the percussion section give this a unique sound
and an equal voice with the other instruments, all while not turning the
piece into a percussion feature. The forward-moving energy is fueled by
the juxtaposition of syncopation and melody, adding complexity. Each
set comes with a printed and bound score and includes individual parts
in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
