The Anguish of Nosferatu—Ed Kiefer.
Very programmatic and haunting, this work provides
a nice change of pace selection for your next concert
or festival. The word Nosferatu was the title of an
unauthorized adaptation of Dracula, and also was
a story about the dark world of vampires. Vibrant
harmonies and shifting compound meters create
a mysterious and suspenseful atmosphere in this
musical representation.

Dance of the Trolls—Mike Forbes. Explore this fun
and colorful work that depicts the mysterious trolls of
Mount Horeb coming out at night to dance in the streets.
Written as a dark, magical waltz, the music moves
through a whirlwind of moods before settling into a
haunting and slow lyrical section. The dance then begins
once more as the music moves into an energetic and
fiery ending complete with a surprising twist. A colorful
work that will be a huge hit with students!

Dark Prophecy—Gary D. Ziek. Ancient rituals and
portents of danger immediately take shape, as the
ferocious opening propels the listener to an eerie and
savage time and place. The intensely primal material
eases into a slower, reflective state before concluding
with a violent race to the fearsome finish, as if the
predicted prophecy has come to its frightful and
terrifying conclusion.

Dragon Fire—Darren W. Jenkins. The legend of
dragons exist in cultures throughout the world, both in
myth and literature, and this musical work breaths life
into this fearsome beast. Powerful music portrays the
might of this huge fire-breathing lizard-like creature,
while more reflective sounds echo the belief that these
creatures possessed mysterious and magical powers.

Eyes of the Dragon—Travis J. Weller.
This programmatic work includes energetic rhythms
and massive dissonant chords that depict an epic
battle between a solitary warrior and a dragon who
threatens his kingdom. A large battery of percussion
and nonstop action combine to create a sense of
unending drama as the fearless warrior risks fighting in
close quarters with the immense beast, close enough
that he will meet the Eyes of the Dragon.

Ghost in the Machine—George Sweet.
Highly imaginative and extremely evocative, this piece
has a science fiction quality that will definitely stand
out. Images of an ancient city-size machine inhabited
by a ghost inspired this unique and thoroughly
entertaining work that's definitely out of the ordinary.

Ghosts of the Lost Ship—Tyler S. Grant.
This highly programmatic work tells the story of
buccaneer naval warfare and the ghosts that linger to
this day, haunting the seas and all who pass through
them. After an evocative opening featuring numerous
rattles, the music becomes aggressive and relentless
as it portrays the credo-driven pirates and their
attacks during the height of their power. Intense and
extremely engaging!

Grim Grinning Ghosts—
arr. Douglas. E. Wagner.
Graveyard wailings and
clattering bones are featured in this haunted musical
adventure that's a delight to play and frightfully fun
to listen to! Visitors to Disneyland and the Magic
Kingdom will recognize this spine-chilling theme from
The Haunted Mansion. You get to be the ghost host in
your next spooky concert!

The Haunted Carousel—Joseph Eidson.
Imagine a circus that only comes to life at midnight,
where tents glow in the darkness while ghostly figures
appear and disappear. Strange music, haunting and
off kilter, comes from a creaking carousel, breaking
the eerie silence of the night. Suddenly the music
softens as the sun begins to rise, and the circus fades
like a distant dream. Delightfully spooky!

Haunted Clocks—Brian Balmages.
Simple aleatoric devices and clever effects combine
to tell the story of a haunted clock factory and its
mischievous inhabitants. Beginning with the sound
of a single clock, additional clocks seemingly come
to life and join in, creating a chorus of clock effects
including wind-up, grandfather and cuckoo clocks.
The Dies Irae is presented throughout in various
altered versions, adding to the somewhat diabolical
nature of the scene. Extremely unique and inventive!

The Headless Horseman—John Prescott.
Relive the legend of the of the headless horseman,
as told in "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." Super-
stitious schoolmaster, Ichabod Crane, embarks on a
harrowing night journey, chased through the dark by
this fearsome spectre. The ride begins first as a trot,
then canter and eventually a mad dash to escape as
the ghostly laughter pierces the air, ever closer to the
terrified schoolmaster!

Into The Dragon's Keep—Sarah A. Smith.
Here's an engaging and imaginative work that will have
students feeling like they've just stepped into a thrilling
story. An open drone in the low brass gives it a very
medieval Celtic sound for some exotic musical flair, and
playing in contrasting 3/4 and 6/8 meters provides the
added benefit of teaching and reinforcing opportunities
for a great musical and educational experience.

The Magician's Secret—Joseph Eidson.
Tricks, grand illusions and impossible feats of magic!
The mysterious magician bedazzles us all with
spectacles of flame, smoke and and objects that
appear as if from thin air. All this occurs as the music
builds in intensity, climaxing with a grand finale of
dazzling light and sound!

Marche Diabolique—Brian Balmages.
This sinister-sounding march is perfect for directors
looking for something completely different.
Using elements from a traditional march set in a
contemporary framework, the music is based on
tritone intervals surrounded by expansive, dark
harmonic language. A wealth of percussion adds great
color to the unsettling character of the music. Quite
effective and intriguing!

Revenge of the Swarm—Larry Neeck.
In homage to the "B movie" suspense/horror movies
of the 50s and 60s, here is a fresh, unconventional,
but totally entertaining work for young band. Melodic
themes contrast with jagged phrases and lots of
special percussion effects will create quite the
"buzz." Don't get "stung" by passing up this cool
programmatic piece.

Shadowlands—Gary Fagan. While the title is
of a fictional place, the title evokes thoughts of a
mysterious and forbidding land where dark and
fearsome creatures reside. The character of this
piece reflects the strange and macabre nature of
this imaginary realm that could only exist in a grim,
dreamlike world.

Spirits Awake—Bill Calhoun. Dark and
mysterious, the tone for this suspenseful work is set
during the introduction. Then abruptly, the percussion
section enters dramatically to awaken the spirit world
and introduce the dance-like main theme. This is
definitely a piece that will stir the imagination of both
performers and listeners.

Unquiet Spirits—John Mackey. The third
movement from "The Soul Has Many Motions," this
delightful work begins quietly, like a spectre taking
shape from a cloud of mist. Soon, the music begins
swirling, changing to a charming, yet somewhat
haunting waltz infectious with its rhythmic and lilting
style. It then concludes as it began, slowly and
gradually diminishing, disappearing quietly into the air.

The Valley of Darkness—Barry E. Kopetz.
This musical work tells the story of an expedition
into a strange and eerie land. As imaginary scenes
are portrayed, the music takes on different qualities,
foreboding and suspenseful. As the end of the sojourn
looms, the speed and urgency increases, driving to
the climatic and powerful conclusion.

Zombie Tango—James Meredith. Zombies are
all the craze, showing up in movies on television,
and in this Latin original, on the dance floor. It's a
clash of two worlds, the stylish and elegant tango
being danced by two gruesome creatures. It's a fun
selection with numerous opportunities for additional
special effects and added showmanship.

They're gruesome, they're frightening, they're
everywhere and your students will love bringing them
to their concerts! As frightening as they are, these
spooky creatures will give everyone a thrill as the
music brings them to life - sort of - in search of their
next adventure!
