H Instant Concert—Harold Walters. Written
almost 25 years before Hooked on Classics,
this amazing novelty presents 30 separate, well-
known melodies in the space of three minutes
and ten seconds! Including symphonic themes,
opera themes, folk songs, spirituals, marches
and even one loud grunt, this very playable
novelty is so bad it's really good! Great "PR" for
any concert!

every rehearsal!

e Junk Funk—Kevin Mixon. Your budding
percussionists are sure to bring in the noise and
the funk with this smokin' feature! Using buckets
and garbage cans as instruments, this piece will
entertain everyone. Not only do your drummers
get to show off their playing, but they also get
to bring a lot of showmanship to the stage. The
band parts are easy and fun, and fit well with the
"Stomp"-style percussion scoring. This is one
jammin' number that will bring the house down!

e Junkyard Jam (for Drums, Trash Cans,
Buckets and Bands)—Kevin Mixon. You'll
have to bring in the trash for this hard-driving
number! While using both rock and introductory
Afro-Cuban styles, there's also and added twist:
percussionists perform on optional "junkyard"
instruments such as 5-gallon buckets and plastic
garbage cans and lids. A spirited middle section
allows other band members to join in the fun too.
Sure to be a favorite for everyone!

H Lassus Trombone (Trombone Section
Feature)—Henry Fillmore/arr. Schissel. This
is the ultimate "good-time" trombone feature,
but you better make sure your trombone
section has plenty of room for their slides! This
is the most famous of Fillmore's Trombone
Smears, and Loras Schissel's edition has been
the arrangement of choice of many of the top
service and professional bands. Now available in
published form for the first time, this outstanding
arrangement should be in the library of every
good band!

a first concert, this light piece will please player
and audience alike when your students pop up
and down just like popcorn. Each section gets

entertaining snack.

trombone feature for students in their first or
second year of band. Their unique ability to play
glissandi is on full display as your section gets to
really shine. Not only a real crowd pleaser, but a
great piece to play on recruiting concerts if you
need trombones.

n Rollo Takes a Walk—David Maslanka. Inspired
by Rollo, a character created by Charles Ives to
represent ultra-conservative musical tastes, the
composer takes us on a musical outing exploring
commonplace musical ideas from a satirical
perspective. A tongue-in-cheek favorite!

H Snakes—Thomas Duffy. This is an incredibly
imaginative piece that utilizes many uncon-
ventional techniques; in fact it's an excellent
way to teach these techniques. A programmatic
description of snakes, it's a fascinating work that
was designed for younger groups, yet works as a
performance selection for high schools.

e Zydeco Cajun Crawdad Dance—Roland
Barrett. The spirit of a festive backwoods jubilee
comes to life with some real Cajun merry-making!

Zydeco dance music. It's time to break out your
washboard and join the fun!

Rarely has a published resource contained
so much invaluable information specifically
for middle school band directors. This
much needed volume provides critical

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
