VE 50.00 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! 10066717 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . . E 55.00 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! 2438240 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . ME 60.00 n Popcorn Prelude—Mike Hannickel. Perfect for a first concert, this light piece will please player and audience alike when your students pop up and down just like popcorn.

ME 60.00 4e Rock Your Bones!—Michael Story. A novel trombone feature for students in their first or second year of band.

Not only a real crowd pleaser, but a great piece to play on recruiting concerts if you need trombones. 10453339 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . VE 50.00 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! 2146223 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . ME 75.00 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. 2274959 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . ME 55.00 e Zydeco Cajun Crawdad Dance—Roland Barrett. The spirit of a festive backwoods jubilee comes to life with some real Cajun merry-making!
