Stay—Randall Standridge. "The world
is better with you in it." This simple yet

health. At times dark but ultimately hopeful,
this work combines symphonic lyricism with
pops sensibilities to create an accessible
yet mature work for young band. Careful
ranges, colorful orchestration, and engaging
percussion are used to great effect - this is
sure to have a strong impact on performers
and audiences.

Inspired by the "spirit army" of 6000 clay
statues created for the tomb of the first
emperor of China, this fascinating work

humorous composition to aid in the

provide appropriate accompaniment.

Tripwire (Flexible Instrumentation)—
JaRod Hall. This clever work offers some
extraordinary colors as a spy attempts to
infiltrate enemy defenses. From the sneaky
beginning melody to the loud and raucous
rips that follow later on, this is an incredible
change of pace for any concert. With this
flexible arrangement, conductors no longer
need to choose between function and
texture. Ensembles with instrumentation
challenges still have numerous options
to cover all parts, yet orchestration is
elevated significantly to be faithful to the
composer's original intent. Musicians have
more opportunities to rest, and timbre once
again becomes a central element of the
work. It's the best of both worlds: flexible
and colorful! (3:00)
