Mountains of the United States, but most
probably originated in Scotland. It is a poignant

to return from sea. This stunning setting brings

contribution to young band repertoire.

Byzantine Dances (Flexcel Concert
Works)—Carol Brittin Chambers. This is a
thrilling work that will engage both students
and audiences from the start! The use of
the harmonic major scale gives this work
its Byzantine flavor while a full percussion
section provides plenty of color. A slower and
mysterious B section introduces snapping, and
the recap of the initial theme utilizes clapping
effects. An exciting ending rounds out this
adventure! The adaptability of this piece
allows for it to be played with as few as five
players, which makes it highly flexible for many
performance or rehearsal situations. Includes a
letter for proof of copyright permission as well
as a digital download coupon so you can get
the music to your students.

Call of the Ancient Clans—Amy Webb. This
composition takes players back to earlier times
when neighboring tribes would communicate
with each other not by racing through the dense
jungle or harsh desert but by using drums. With
an interesting, pulsating rhythm and catchy
woodwind lines, use this to catch students'
interest and get them involved in making some
fun musical moments. The notes are easily
played by those with over a year of band, but
the piece also provides a good challenge as the
first clarinets do go over the break a couple of
times. There are plenty of dynamic contrasts,
interesting percussion parts, and plenty of
exciting moments. Perfect for an exhilarating
ending to a concert.

This powerful work depicts the frantic voyage of
the RMS Carpathia racing to the aid of the RMS
Titanic. The whole band is involved in making
the sounds of the ship, from the vibrating hull
to the ship's bell to the hissing boilers, creating
a truly lifelike effect. As Carpathia arrives on
the terrible scene, the music turns into a slow,
mournful hymn for those who have perished.
The music intensifies once more as the rescue
ship embarks on her triumphant yet tragic
journey to safety. A stunning composition! This
version features flexible instrumentation.
