Gillingham. Set in D locrian mode (with notes of the E-flat major scale), this is a dark, engaging work that plays with the word "centrifugal" - the force that acts on objects within a rotating frame of reference, directing them away from the axis.

An excellent addition to your next concert or festival performance! 11515717 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . . . . 70.00 Earthrise—Steven J. Pyter. Earthrise is the name of an iconic NASA photograph taken on December 24, 1968 from the Apollo 8 spacecraft while orbiting the moon. This historical event is depicted in this evocative tone poem for developing bands. A flute solo (cued in other instruments if needed) floats above rich sonorities. The flute's melody is passed around the band and is eventually accompanied by sparkling aleatoric woodwinds. Correlates with Tradition of Excellence Book 2, page 34. 11521104 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . . . . 75.00 Exuberance!—Jon Bubbett.

This approachable work bridges the gap between Grades 2 and 3 and incorporates ample teaching moments for articulation, technique, sixteenth notes, and musicality. A hit! 11411816 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . . . . 75.00 Fearless—Carol Brittin Chambers. This tour-de- force original work lives up to its title. A bold and regal opening statement quickly transitions into an intense body of work that uses strong melody, creative harmony, driving rhythms, and biting articulations, all building to a dramatic ending that will leave the audience on the edge of their seats! 11501813 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . . . . 85.00 First Snow—Anthony O'Toole. This whimsical and spirited work was inspired by the painting Skating in Central Park by American artist Agnes Tait. Depicting the park in late afternoon, carefree skaters and sledders enjoy their winter activities against the backdrop of the Manhattan skyline. This work evokes that magical feeling, wistful nostalgia, and holiday cheer that begins with the first glimpse of white snow and icicles hanging from the window in the cold morning. An original tone poem that's sure to become a yearly staple in your winter concerts. 11521107 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . . . . 85.00 The Great Locomotive Chase—Robert W. Smith.
