To Absent Friends—R. Christopher Teichler.
It is common to have a toast "to absent friends"
at ceremonies or receptions. While not limited
to military functions, it is in this context that
the toast often seems the most special and
appropriate. This heartfelt piece is a tribute to all
who have served in the armed forces and are no
longer with us.

4 Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing
—arr. Randall Standridge. The arranger chose
this reverent, yet somewhat sad-sounding
hymn to arrange for band in honor of the life and
influence of his grandmother, who passed away
in 2012. Moving from moments of quiet beauty
though hugely magnificent waves of sound,
this powerful arrangement is a great example
of the expressiveness and power that can be
achieved by a fine concert band work. The final
statement of the hymn tune melody by a solo
clarinet wraps up this memorable hymn tune
arrangement in a reverent, quiet way.

ferocious race to the end and freedom.

Teaching Music
through Performance
in Middle School Band
Richard Miles. Rarely has a published resource contained so
much invaluable information specifically for middle school band
directors. This much needed volume provides critical information
on creating an effective wind band program in Grades 6 through 8,
from recruitment, rehearsal, repertoire, and performance. Chapters
by leading middle school band directors focus on organization and administration, developing
proper instrumentation, recruitment and retention, technique, literature selection, rehearsal,
and a comprehensive listing of other resources. Central to this volume is the identification
and analysis of 100 core works organized by difficulty level from grade 1 to 3.5. A separate
section is devoted entirely to marches that, combined with the other selections, make up
core repertoire for middle school bands. As with the other books in this series, information
is included about the composer, the work, historical perspectives, technical and stylistic
considerations, analysis of musical elements and form and structure, suggested listening
references, and cross references to additional resources.
