Holsinger. This exciting, energetic work comes from Holsinger's "GrandKid Suite," in which he has captured his grandson's obsession with anything that flies - be it airplane, helicopter, or...super hero! After a bold, dramatic opening, the soaring super hero theme takes off. Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Kid Cam, the Rocketman! 10449126 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 75.00 10449128 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 10.00 4 AlchemyAndrew Boysen, Jr. An alchemist combines two metals in an attempt to make gold.

This composition is destined to become a blockbuster! Jim Swearingen's music is popular the world over, and All Glory Told will take its place with the best of them. Stirring and emotional, it starts with effective on-stage and off-stage trumpet solos. An exciting vivace section is full of the mixed meter magic you've come to expect, but the lyrical sections show a sensitivity that goes beyond Jim's previous compositions. And the ending...well, all we can say is you owe it to yourself to try it! Highest recommendations! 2323459 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 68.00 2323467 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 5.00 5457726 CD-Exaltation! . . . . . . . . . . 14.95 5657838 CD-Songs of Grace and Songs of Glory . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14.95 4 All the Pretty Little Horsesarr. Andrew Boysen, Jr. The second movement of "Three Folk Song Settings for Band," this hauntingly beautiful setting provides a lyrical contrast to the two outer movements.

Depicting the aftermath of a hurricane, this work starts with just a single note as a single person emerges. Others emerge and the music builds quickly, resulting in a glorious fanfare. If you are looking for something unique as a concert opener, be sure to consider this! 10369947 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 75.00 10369985 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 6.00 n Amazing GraceFrank Ticheli.

Saucedo. Rhythmic and energetic, this lively work contains elements of an early American character that features a poignant, calmer section with lighter texture and interlaced lyric motifs. Building to a dramatic peak with a powerful and majestic statement by the full ensemble, it then becomes more frenzied with mixed meters and relentless percussion figures, racing to an exciting conclusion. Filled with humor and creativity, this unique work will easily find a place in contest or festival repertoire. 10072349 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 75.00 10072351 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 7.50 H American Civil War FantasyJerry Bilik.

A reaffirmation of the strength of the human spirit, this expansive elegy was composed in memory of those who lost their lives at Columbine High School, and to honor the survivors. It's graceful and gentle in its harmonic structure, yet musically probes for a deeper meaning. At the end, a simple, thoughtful solo for trumpet precedes a broad crescendo that lifts our hopes and quells our fears. A strikingly beautiful work both in meaning and in music! 2448918 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . 175.00 2450807 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 18.50 H American FacesDavid Holsinger. Displaying America's exuberance, pioneering spirit and underlying faith, this driving overture uses many diverse themes, both original and borrowed. The work is not a patriotic medley, but rather a tribute to the various qualities that make up the "faces" of America. The piece is full of Holsinger's metrical wizardry and dynamic surprises. Outstanding! 2331254 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 95.00 2353910 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 14.00 5715842 CD-Symphonic Wind Music of Holsinger, Vol. 6 . . . . . . . 15.00 An American FanfareRick Kirby. This dynamic concert opener takes the normally hymn-like strains of America (My Country 'Tis of Thee) and incorporates it into a fast and energetic fanfare. The actual melody is stated only once in its entirety. Many liberties are taken with both melodic and harmonic elements of the original, making a breathtaking presentation! 10072345 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 60.00 10072346 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 7.50 n American FlourishRobert W. Smith. An excellent programming choice that's easy to prepare and extremely effective!

Perfect as a concert opener or any concert that requires an American patriotic selection. 10071278 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 68.00 10071279 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 7.00 10071453 CD-Night Ride Through Metropolis . . . . . . 14.95 H American Folk Rhapsody No. 1Clare Grundman. The first of four American Folk Rhapsodies, this superb work, originally written in 1948, is a wonderful example of both U.S. school band literature and the exceptional writing/arranging skills of Clare Grundman. Including: My Little Mohee (more commonly known as On Top of Old Smokey); Shantyman's Life; Sourwood Mountain and Sweet Betsy from Pike, this is an outstanding, proven work for both concert and contest. 147249 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 90.00 4865432 Full Score . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11.95 10072366 CD-Music of Clare Grundman . . . . . . . . . 14.99 H American Folk Rhapsody No. 2Clare Grund- man. With light-hearted yet tasteful settings of Billy Boy and Skip To My Lou played off against a lyrical yet moving setting of Shenandoah, it is easy to understand why this ingenious work by Clare Grundman continues to be so popular. An exceptionally nice work! 147330 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 85.00 4837456 Full Score . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11.95 10072366 CD-Music of Clare Grundman . . . . . . . . . 14.99 H American RiversongsPierre La Plante. This marvelous work is a moving tribute to an earlier time, when our rivers and other waterways were the lifelines of our growing nation. Featuring Down The River; Shenandoah (Across The Wide Missouri); The Glendy Burk and a delightful Creole bamboula tune, this piece is an inspiring program selection that will give an emotional, nostalgic touch to your program. 2255933 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 85.00 5178660 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 8.00 5837364 CD-Teaching Music Through Performance In Band, Vol. 3 3-CD Set: Grades 2-3. . . . . 39.50 American Salute (based on When Johnny Comes Marching Home)Morton Gould/ arr. Wagner. This monumental work has been a staple in orchestra and band repertoire for over 50 years. Easily recognizable, highly energetic, and immensely popular, this arrangement retains all the fervor of the original, and by rescoring the instrumentation, allows many more groups the opportunity to enjoy this outstanding composition. Highly recommended! 10094837 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 75.00 10094838 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 10.00 l Ancient Hymn Tune Variantsarr. John Pres- cott. The medieval plainchant Divinum Mysterium begins in a slow, stately tempo as it might have been heard in a cathedral in the middle ages. This initial setting ultimately gives way to fast, driving rhythms, the most dramatic of which occurs near the end as the piece reaches its exciting and triumphant conclusion. 10449826 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 70.00 10449827 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 10.00 l The Anguish of NosferatuEd 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. 10457116 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 90.00 10457117 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 15.00 H Anthem for Winds and PercussionClaude T.

Don't miss this stunning exploration into the world of Greek mythology. A powerful work encompassing drama, emotion and stark musical contrasts, destined to become a classic for concert and festival use.

Prepare yourself for a journey to a mysterious, tranquil imaginary world deep under the sea. The composition opens with dream-like beauty as you float in a serene lake, a calm sea, or an eerie underwater scene. A brief, meditative transition suddenly bursts into a spirited theme that will have you racing through the waves, playfully skimming the water in a fun- filled dash to shore! 10453131 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 75.00 10453191 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 10.00 n Arabian DancesBrian Balmages. Explore Middle Eastern sounds with this work that combines authentic traditional melodies and rhythms with original music. After a haunting opening, authentic Middle Eastern percussion instruments create the groove that accompanies the folk song Ala Dal'ona. As the orchestration builds, original themes are intertwined before the percussion ensemble becomes the focus of the third section. The final melody, Tafta Hindi, develops until it morphs into an ostinato over a magnificent presentation of the original theme that is found throughout the work. A riveting ending brings this thrilling work to a dynamic close! 10070445 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 85.00 10070446 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 11.00 l Arctic FireRobert Buckley. The cinematic approach to the music of Arctic Fire portrays many different images of the north - the crimson sunlight glinting off the icebergs, the radiance of the Northern Lights, the blaze of the Red Twig Dogwood, the scarlet red sunsets, and the fiery spirit of the people who live there. The piece opens and closes with a series of dramatic musical snapshots. In between, the music evolves and transforms through a wide range of stylistic textures and moods. A brilliantly scored and effective setting for winds. 10460869 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 75.00 10460871 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 7.50 n Ascend (Movement III of "Georgian Suite") Samuel Hazo. Driving and energetic, this work is designed to sound great with developing bands. The combination of mixed meters and syncopation gives the main theme a unique edge, and there is a brief three-part fugue woven into the texture of the piece. It is sure to provide a rewarding and varied musical experience for your players! 2481702 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 60.00 2481703 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 10.00 AscendingLarry Clark. It is all too common for pieces to be written for the loss of band members and while this is such a piece, it is an uplifting and inspiring tribute. A touching piece, it takes the listener on a journey through the stages of grief using a popular hymn as the basis. 10368082 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 90.00 10368134 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 12.00 H Australian Up-Country TunePercy Grainger/ arr.
