l Rain and Snow on the Cedar CliffsEd Kiefer.
Two traditional Appalachian tunes are the basis of
this vivid portrait of a rough and rugged mountain
range. Introducing the piece is the beautiful and
haunting melody of Rain and Snow, a tune that
tells the story of a man and wife struggling to make
ends meet. The second section is the more lively
and widely recognized Old Joe Clark, which is
developed as a fantasy and joined by the first tune
for a hoedown finish.

The Rakes of Mallow (from the "Irish
Suite")Leroy Anderson. Originally this was the
third movement of the "Irish Suite" for orchestra and
was rescored for concert band by the composer.
This marvelous setting of the Irish folksong is a
programming gem, suitable for concerts, festivals,
pop concerts and an obvious must for St. Patrick's
Day celebrations. Vibrant and full of life, it is a true
reflection of this gifted composer's creative talent.

n Reese's Summer DayDavid R. Holsinger. Here
is another exciting work from Holsinger's "GrandKid
Suite." Written for his granddaughter Jacquelyn,
whose days are full of family and friends, doting
adults and just a wee bit of drama with her little
brother, this selection combines them into the
perfect recipe for one super summer day after
another! The music itself is very Grainger-esque,
like a lazy summer afternoon!

n RestFrank Ticheli. A lyric and moving adaptation
of an earlier SATB choral work, There Will Be Rest.
In creating this setting, the harmony, dynamics and
registration of the original have been preserved,
allowing the fragile beauty and quiet dignity to be
maintained. And while the concert band is faithful
to the choral, certain aspects have been enhanced
which keeps it independent, having its own
strengths and unique qualities.

l The Rite of Spring (Excerpts from)Igor
Stravinsky/arr. Robert Buckley. The premier
performance of this masterwork is the stuff of
legends with disagreements whether it was the
music or the choreography that caused the near-
riot of the audience. Considered to be one of the
most influential works of the 20th century, this
work laid the basis for modern jazz, film music and
even heavy metal. It's all here: the driving rhythms,
the haunting Russian folk melodies, the brilliant
scoring, the crunching harmonies and the epic
drama! True to the original, this one is a valued and
important addition to the wind band repertoire!

H River of LifeSteven Reineke. We urge you to
look at this important work! This composer is the
resident composer for the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra
and we feel that this is an incredible composition...
the highs, the lows, the development, the scoring,
the transitions, the themes...all point to a piece that
must be given a place in the band repertoire. Best
of all, is that this work will appeal on several levels,
the melodies and rhythms immediately grab you,
but on a deeper level, the composer's skill is quite
evident. Our highest recommendations!

l Runaway Circus TrainErik Morales. This
highly programmatic work begins with an original
waltz that sets a circus atmosphere. Soon after,
the circus has packed up and the train begins to
move to its next destination, but trouble looms in
the distance and chaos ensues. Using two familiar
melodies, this colorful work uses a myriad of clever
effects as it juxtaposes circus music with impending
disaster. Unbelievably creative!
