Toboggan—JaRod Hall. The beauty and
fun of a snowy day are captured in this
beautiful cinematic work. A winter scene
is painted gently with bells at the beginning
before the piece takes off in a blizzard of
sparkling flourishes and catchy rhythms.
This versatile work is appropriate for a
winter or holiday concert, but it will also
make a powerful and fun statement at a
festival. Sure to be a hit with your audiences
and adjudicators, whatever the season!

Tree City Triptych—Chris Sharp. This
piece uses the three-note motive G-C-B as
the basis for the entire piece. It features a
driving opening movement, a lyrical middle
section, and a triumphant finale. Great for
concerts and assessments.

Trip the Light Fantastic!—Robert
Sheldon. Tuneful and lighthearted, this
piece features syncopated rhythms and
a touch of Lydian modality to enhance
its playfulness. The title, borrowed from
a poem by John Milton, means to dance
nimbly and land lightly using fancy footwork
- most appropriate for a composition that
also seems to dance nimbly and land lightly
on the listener's ear. (5:00)

Tuttarana—Reena Esmail. The title of this
piece is a conglomeration of two words: the
Italian word 'tutti', means 'all' or 'everyone',
and the term 'tarana' designates a specific
Hindustani (North Indian) musical form,
whose closest Western counterpart is the
'scat' in jazz. The tarana is a place where
musicians can put their greatest virtuosity on
display, leaving an audience in awe. While a
tarana is a solo form, I wanted to bring that
same energy to an ensemble form. This
work was originally written for treble chorus,
then arranged for brass quintet, and is now
in its third iteration for concert band.

Under the Night Sky in the Philippines—
Robert Langenfeld. This interpretation of
two Filipino lullabies, Dandansoy and Sa
Ugoy ng Duyan, invokes the feeling we all
got as children when our guardians sang
us to sleep. But more importantly, it's about
bringing the culture of the Philippines to a new
generation and helping celebrate and honor
it. The collaborators on this project dedicate
this work to the culture and country of the
Philippines and all of the people in our lives
who come from and are descendants of these
islands. If no soprano is available, alternative
instrumental solo parts are provided.

Undertow—John Mackey. A flash of
musical lightning that will exhilarate
listeners at all levels! An infectious rhythmic
pulse is created with alternating 4/4 and 7/8
measures that drives the work forward from
start to finish. Active percussion parts add
to the overall appeal of this lively and very
creative work!

Until We Dream—David Samuel. This
heartfelt tribute in memory of a beloved pet
is an open door into any pet owner's heart.
A lush and soaring work that will inspire
musicians and audiences, stretch musician-
ship, and provide many opportunities for
reflection, understanding, and empathy.

The Veil Nebula—Jennifer Rose.
Mysterious and otherworldly, this Grade
3.5 work is inspired by the remnants of a
supernova in the Cygnus constellation.
Intriguing harmonies, colorful orchestration,
and the eerie voice of a theremin (or
synthesizer) create a shimmering, celestial
soundscape. Shifting textures and mood
evoke the timeless beauty of space, while
stunning NASA imagery of the Veil Nebula
can enhance the performance with a powerful
visual connection. A unique and atmospheric
addition to any concert or festival program.

Vesti la giubba—Ruggero Leoncavallo/
arr. Jordi Ripoll. In 1902, Enrico Caruso's
recording of this aria for tenor from the
opera "Pagliacci" was the first song
in history to sell a million copies. It is
sung at the end of the first act, when
Canio discovers his wife's infidelity but
must prepare for a show by playing
the role of Pagliaccio, the clown. This
arrangement adapts perfectly to the
lyrical characteristics of the trombone and
euphonium as it allows the performer to
show all their expressive potential.

Vielle priere bouddhique (Old Buddhist
Prayer)—Lili Boulanger/arr. Travis
Freshner. Originally for chorus and
orchestra, this work was one of the last
pieces Lili Boulanger composed before
her untimely death at the age of 24 in
1918. It beautifully encapsulates themes
of spirituality and reflection and is notable
for its serene and meditative quality,
which mirrors the contemplative nature of
Buddhist prayers. The arranger expertly
transforms this piece for the modern
concert band (without chorus) while
staying true to the composer's original
intent. A glossary of French terms is
included, as are the original French lyrics
and English translation.

Voices of the Sky—Samuel Hazo. The
many qualities and changes in appearance
of the sky are translated into musical moods
through this expressive work. The opening
lyric section flows between soloistic and full
ensemble playing and leads to a "sinister"
fast section of driving rhythms and mixed
meter that crescendos to a powerful new
setting of the original melody to close the
work. Impeccable timing and emotional
pacing sustain and propel this effective work.

Voyage of the Northern Lights—
Isabella Morrill. This descriptive work is
a musical narrative that comes from an
old Scandinavian folk tale. It explains
that the beautiful, awe-inspiring northern
lights are actually carrying fallen Vikings
up to Valhalla. Other versions say that
the lights were the dying warriors' final
exhales and farewells before entering the
afterlife. Winner of the 2022 National Band
Association Merrill Jones Memorial Band
Composition Contest.

Wayfaring Stranger—arr. Christopher
M. Nelson. This lush and colorful setting
of the folk song Poor Wayfaring Stranger
grabs hold of your heart and doesn't
let go until the final notes of the piece.
Masterful orchestration and innovative
yet sensitive treatment of the original folk
song characterize this arrangement, which
is sure to become a classic work for wind
band. Exquisite!
10535895 Band Set & Score. . . . . .89.00
We May Rise—arr. Preston Hazzard. This
tender melody was originally a choral work
entitled All Praise to Thee with text based
on a chorale written by Martin Luther and
first published in 1524. This wonderfully
musical melody has been beautifully
reimagined for this outstanding work for
wind band. The wide variety of instrumental
colors is extremely effective in capturing
and enhancing the rich harmonies and
haunting melody of the original.

West Highlands Sojourn—Robert
Sheldon. Inspired by the composer's
journey through the western hill country of
England and Wales, this delightful piece
borrows from folk melodies he heard on a
river near the Scottish border. The three
sections of the piece provide very effective
contrast and, with Sheldon's artful scoring,
this is an excellent choice for concert or
contest. Splendid!

When Heroes Campaign—Joshua A.
Idio. Filled with dark harmonies and intense
rhythms, this work is a thrilling campaign
for band with plenty of excitement and
adventure for all!

Winds of Change—Randall Standridge.
Winds that flow across the landscape now
provide energy - and the inspiration for this
piece. The quiet introduction depicts the
great open spaces that stretch for miles as
gentle morning breezes begin. Small gusts
of wind, represented by scale passages
and arpeggiated figures, dance across
the landscape. The pace picks up until
the music soars, much like the wind racing
across the land, turning the turbines and
charging exuberantly towards the future.

Windstorm—Vince Gassi. The forecast:
gusting winds, increasing tempi, with a mix of
powerful brass and thunderous percussion,
and a 100 percent chance of participation.
This will sweep over your audience like a
powerful tempest, the calm before the storm
foreshadowing the gentle zephyr calmly
flowing through the lyrical section. (4:00)

A Winter's Journey—Randall Standridge.
Take your band over the river and through
the wood with this exciting winter work.
Incorporating themes from the classic

explodes with energy and joy as it depicts
a sleigh ride across a snowy landscape.
Driving rhythms, colorful percussion, and
soaring melodies combine to create a
festive secular work, perfect for your next
winter concert or festival performance!
