l Hammer and RailTravis J. Weller. Relive the
story of John Henry racing against a steam drill
in this new setting of the American folk song This
Old Hammer. An expressive opening gives way to
whistles of steam and the pounding hammer. All
wind instruments encounter important melodic
lines and the percussion section provides exciting
colors including brake drum and towing chain. A
final powerful statement brings the work (and race)
to an exciting conclusion.

The Haunted CarouselJoseph Eidson. Imagine
a circus that only comes to life at midnight, where
tents glow in the darkness while ghostly figures
appear and disappear. Strange music, haunting and
off kilter, comes from a creaking carousel, breaking
the eerie silence of the night. Suddenly the music
softens as the sun begins to rise, and the circus
fades like a distant dream. Delightfully spooky!

driving rhythms and an array of tonal colors, Heroes
Triumphant is a musical manifestation of vivacity
and high spirits. Beginning crisply, the trumpet

IronHeartRandall D. Standridge. All artists must
call on an inner strength to devote themselves to
their craft, and this work was inspired by that
strength of will. The sounds of a beating heart,
combined with metallic accents in the mallet
percussion, brake drum, and China crash cymbal,
create a uniquely industrial sound as the melody
races through life's obstacles before climaxing in a
beautiful, triumphant fanfare.
