Red (from "Autumn Triptych")—Eric
Nathan. Red, from Autumn Triptych,
Eric Nathan (2008) for wind ensemble
Instrumentation: Piccolo 1-2, flute 1-2,
oboe 1-2, bassoon 1-2, clarinet 1-3,
bass clarinet, alto saxophone 1-2, tenor
saxophone, baritone saxophone, trumpet
1-3, horn 1-4, tenor trombone 1-2, bass
trombone, euphonium, tuba, timpani,
percussion 1-4, piano "Autumn Triptych"
was commissioned by the twelve member
schools of the Atlantic Coast Conference
Band Directors Association. It is inspired
by three paintings, each related to autumn:
Jackson Pollock's "Autumn Rhythm"
(1950), John Atkinson Grimshaw's
"Evening Glow" (c.1884), and Georgia
O'Keeffe's "The Red Maple at Lake
George" (1926). My piece does not seek
to represent the paintings, but instead
uses the paintings as a springboard for
inspiration and musical form. It is my
sincere hope that viewing the paintings
will lend deeper insight into the meaning
of the music and the music in some way
may allow the viewer to see the art from
a new perspective. The three movements
may either be performed individually or as
a set (and may also be grouped in pairs).
III. "Red" is inspired by Georgia O'Keeffe's
painting "The Red Maple at Lake George"
(1926). My work is inspired by O'Keeffe's
intensely vibrant and fiery depiction of
a red maple leaf. The music references
different associations with the color red,
from the fiery and sassy to the robust and
vibrantly radiant.

Sesenta—Quincy Hilliard. Celebrating
60 years of leadership of a municipal
band, this piece opens with an exciting
and energetic theme. The tempo stays
brisk throughout, with dynamic shifts
and rhythmic patterns reflecting both the
celebratory nature of the anniversary
and the progression of time. Solos from
soprano saxophone, flute, and euphonium
add color to the piece, while the final
fanfare-like coda provides a majestic
conclusion.

Souvenir de Porto Rico—Louis Moreau
Gottschalk/arr. Michael Brignolo. Gottschalk
didn't live long enough to leave a large
catalogue, but the works he brought to the
public were quite popular in their day. This is
one of his more well-known works, skillfully
rendered for band by Michael Brignolo. It
brings the vivid colors and sounds of the
Caribbean to life.

Spinning Yarns—Ryan Lindveit. Spinning
Yarns, Ryan Lindveit (2015) 10'30" for wind
ensemble Instrumentation: Piccolo, flute
1-2, oboe 1-2, bassoon 1-2, Eb clarinet, Bb
clarinet 1-3, bass clarinet, alto saxophone
1-2, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone,
trumpet 1-3, horn 1-2, trombone 1-3, bass
trombone, euphonium, tuba, timpani,
percussion 1-4, piano, contrabass Grade 5-6
I am fascinated by multi-layered storytelling,
and Spinning Yarns is a result of that
fascination. Margaret Atwood's novel The
Blind Assassin was a particularly rich source
of inspiration. In this novel, each chapter is
part of a different sub-novel. A crime novel
is right next to a memoir which is right next
to a science fiction story which is right next
to a romance novel. The interaction between
each of these layers creates a large and
hugely dramatic narrative. Spinning Yarns is a
collection of diverse narrative threads stitched
together into a dramatic musical tapestry. Like
an Atwoodian multi-layered novel, the music
oscillates between dreamlike uncertainty,
chaotic heroism, sarcastic dancing, pensive
sleepwalking, airy lyricism, and climactic
hubris. As the drama unfolds, these disparate
elements emerge, re-emerge, and inform and
interact with each other.

That Thing—Robert Alexander. Some
things can't be spoken. Some things linger
in the back of your mind, haunting and
restless. This bold and unconventional
Grade 5 band work thrives on tension,
texture, and raw emotion, pulling players
and audiences alike into a sound
world that's unsettling, mysterious, and
electrifying. An unforgettable musical
experience for audience and band alike.

Third Coast Jubilee—Jordan R. Tucker.
Evoke the spirit of festivals along the Gulf
Coast with this vibrant and celebratory
piece. With a lively ABA form, the music
captures the excitement of a grand
celebration, from the anticipation of the
event to a more intimate middle section,
then culminating in a fiery, festive
conclusion. The dynamic range and
rhythmic complexity make this an excellent
showcase for concert band.

We Are Made of Star Stuff—Brooke
Pierson. This work for advanced wind
ensemble, based on a famous quote by
Carl Sagan "we are made of star stuff" is a
reflection on humanity and our place within;
both showcasing stretched out melodies
and chord structures as well as faster
sparkling undercurrent.

When Hope Falls Silent—Aaron D.
McMichael. A deeply emotional piece
inspired by the composer's personal
experience of loss. Written at a slow,
somber pace, the music reflects the quiet
sorrow of a life cut short. The final section,
marked by the timpani's heartbeat-like
rhythms, gradually fades into silence,
symbolizing a peaceful resolutionwith the
inevitable passage of time.
