City of Lights—Brad Ciechomski. Colorful and
descriptive, this piece pays tribute to the first city
to use public electric lights. As such, the element
of electricity is incorporated into the music, starting
with harmonic tensions that create a feeling of
electrical interference. Aleatoric material along with
electric sounds that can be downloaded make for
a decidedly unique selection that will stand out on
any program.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing—arr.

sound, this compelling piece is a great example of
the expressiveness and power that can be achieved
by a fine concert band work. The final statement
of the melody by a solo clarinet wraps up this
memorable hymn-tune arrangement in a reverent,
quiet way.
