Elements (Petite Symphony)—Brian
Balmages. Four short movements make up
this "petite symphony" constructed in the
same form as the elements of a traditional
symphony: Allegro non troppo; Largo; Scherzo
and Allegro vivace. Each movement also refers
to an element of nature. Movement 1, Air, is
light and breathy, made up mostly of staccato
notes. Water, the second movement, ripples
and flows softly and gently. An homage to
Holst's The Planets can be heard in Earth,
the third movement. The piece concludes in
an intense inferno with Fire. A powerful and
cleverly composed piece!

Traveler will have your ensemble on full
display, with ample opportunity to showcase
your student's musicianship.

Fantasia on Greensleeves (from "Sir John in
Love")—Ralph Vaughan Williams/trans. Merlin
Patterson. Starting with the lovely combination
of solo flute and harp, this distinctly British-
sounding arrangement of a beloved tune is
developed masterfully through the juxtaposition
of legato and staccato passages and dark
timbres. It also introduces another folk tune with
a big, powerful sound. Brilliant!

Fantasy on Capriccio Italien—P.I. Tchai-

a trip to Rome and based on Italian folk
songs, Tchaikovsky composed his Capriccio
Italien in 1880. This fantasy utilizes the
capriccio's themes to capture the essence
of Tchaikovsky's music for concert band.
Although technically reduced for medium to
medium-easy ensembles, it still retains all
the fire and energy of the masterwork. This
is a wonderful selection not only to introduce
a classical composer but also to work on
phrasing, balance, and dynamic contrasts. It
will appeal to performers and audiences alike!
11516633 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . .95.00
Fantasy on Yankee Doodle—arr. Mark
Williams. This is a refreshing and exciting
work! Yankee Doodle seems like such a simple
melody, but it's amazing how well Mark Williams
develops it using a set of variations. Although
opened by a humorous statement of the theme
by solo tuba, you'll soon find that this is not a
novelty piece. The varied styles and moods are
displayed in well-written music that is perfectly
held together by the original theme. Excellent!
2319440 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . .90.00
Fate of the Gods—Steven Reineke. Steven
Reineke has done it again! This riveting
overture is full of the intriguing writing you've
come to expect in Steven's compositions! A
programmatic work, the music portrays tales
from Nordic mythology. Elements of dark
foreboding are masterfully balanced with more
vibrant sections. The intensity of the work will
keep your interest from the first note through
the last!
2469112 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . .90.00
A Festival Prelude—Alfred Reed. With the
music built entirely from one main theme and
two fanfare-like figures that occur throughout,
this is a very widely accepted contest/
festival work.

Festivo—Vaclav Nelhybel. Within each grade

are certain works that stand above the rest.
Festivo is certainly such a work and demands
a place in your library.

Flying Away—Yukiko Nishimura. A musical
depiction of being able to fly like a bird to see
loved ones and friends, this lyrical composition
features soaring melodic lines and intertwined
countermelodies. Delicate percussion helps
to accentuate emotional moments while
developing players' expressive abilities. A brief
faster section contrasts with the initial lyrical
theme before a return to the soaring, birdlike
moments from the beginning. A moving and
beautiful tribute to friends everywhere, this
ballad is a great reflective moment for any
concert or contest.
11399527 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . .75.00

Napoletana. This masterfully scored piece
will transport your audience on an exciting
musical journey. Many teaching opportunities
are presented, including meter changes, divisi,
and shifting styles. It will have your audience
smiling and clapping along!

Away The Morning Dew; High Germany; The
Tree So High and John Barley's Corn. This

students and audiences will love this English
band classic!

Forgotten Tales of the West—Adrian B. Sims.
This powerful work serves as a soundtrack for
the many battles fought between the Native
Americans and Europeans during the early
unsettled history of North America. The music
effectively represents both sides of the conflict,
moving between Native American-influenced
themes and western harmonies before
developing into an amalgamation of the two.
