4 Unquiet SpiritsJohn 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.

n Variations on Scarborough FairCalvin Custer.
First published in 1989, this work has become a
proven band classic. With the first statement of
the theme played by a solo flute accompanied by
vibes and bells, this very musical, sensitive set of
variations spotlights woodwind and brass choirs
and also includes a Bach-like fugue variation. Truly
symphonic band writing at its best.

n Voices of the SkySamuel 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.

The Wearing of the Green (from the "Irish
Suite")Leroy Anderson/arr. Wagner. This
wonderful setting was not a part of the original "Irish
Suite" for orchestra but was added later. Unlike
the original four movements, it was not rescored
for band until now and was well worth the wait!
A rollicking dialog between woodwind and brass
sections, it's an excellent addition to concert band
repertoire. Whether used for concerts, festivals, pop
concerts or St. Patrick Day celebrations, it's a sheer
delight to listen to or perform.

H West Highlands SojournRobert 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!

rich phrases until the work reaches and emotional
climax at the powerfully scored key change. While
