StarlightDavid Gorham. Display a broad pallet
of sonic colors in your concert hall. A light and
spritely opening evokes images of darkening night
skies as one by one the stars appear. Soon, as with
the ever growing stars, the instrumentation grows
into an expansive landscape, filling the halls with
sounds as colorful and full as a clear starry night.
Then, just as it started, the sounds begin to fall off,
gradually fading out just as the stars before the
approaching day. Stunningly beautiful!

n Strange HumorsJohn Mackey. Modal melodies
and syncopated rhythms of Middle Eastern music
with percussive African drumming bring about
a striking blend of musical cultures. The central
focus is the pulse of the djembe, an hourglass-
shaped drum played with bare hands that's a
cultural instrument of West African countries. The
groove of the djembe combined with quirky rhythms
throughout create an impression not soon forgotten.

moods in a setting of motion and drama. Flourishes
in the woodwinds and heroic themes in the brass
are tempered with the colors of summer and built
up with drama to a big, powerful ending. A fine

a recognized name in band music.

n Three Celtic DancesBrian Balmages. Based
on three different Scottish dance forms, this
work explores a wide variety of Celtic styles using
authentic and original material. Lively and spirited,
Movement 1, Reel, is based on the tune The Last
Pint of Ale. Well May I Behold My Faithful Brown-
Hair'd Maid is the basis for the second movement,
Air. It is presented as a slow, lyrical melody. The
final movement, Jig, is loosely based on the tune
Highlander's Jig and uses the most recognized
Celtic dance form. The piece may be performed
as a whole, but each movement stands on its own
if played individually. An excellent selection for
concert or contest.

l Tropes: Variants on an Ancient KyrieJohn
Prescott. This powerful work is composed using
tropes to brilliant effect. Repeated wind and
percussion patterns represent centuries of rituals
while a particularly haunting effect is achieved
in the middle section as "Kyrie eleison, Christe
eleison, Kyrie eleison" is whispered, sounding like
voices echoing from centuries past. This mixture of
old and new celebrates the ageless quality of music
in resounding style.

l Two Preludes by Giuseppe VerdiGiuseppe
Verdi/arr. John Bourgeois. Some of Verdi's most
powerful and dramatic music appears in his
overtures, preludes and ballet scenes. The preludes
before individual acts of the operas foreshadow the
mood and intense drama of the ensuing scenes.
Paired together in this transcription are preludes
from two operatic works, Ernani and Atilla, both of
which are prime examples of these powerful and
expressive musical elements.

4 UndecimRandall D. Standridge. The title
word is Latin for "eleven," which refers to both
the "eleventh hour" (the last opportunity to get
something done) as well as the opening metric feel
of the piece. This high-energy opener creates the
perfect setting to begin your next concert.

lightning that will exhilarate listeners at all levels! An
infectious rhythmic pulse is created with alternating
4/4 and 7/8 measures that drives the work forward
from start to finish. Active percussion parts add to the
overall appeal of this lively and very creative work!

n Unquiet SpiritsJohn Mackey. The third
movement from "The Soul Has Many Motions," this
delightful work begins quietly, like a specter taking
shape from a cloud of mist. Soon, the music begins
swirling, changing to a charming, yet somewhat
haunting waltz infectious with its rhythmic and
lilting style. It then concludes as it began, slowly
and gradually diminishing, disappearing quietly into
the air.

n Variations on Scarborough FairCalvin Custer.
First published in 1989, this work has become a
proven band classic. With the first statement of
the theme played by a solo flute accompanied by
vibes and bells, this very musical, sensitive set of
variations spotlights woodwind and brass choirs
and also includes a Bach-like fugue variation. Truly
symphonic band writing at its best.

VertigoChris M. Bernotas. This exciting concert
opener or closer is sure to take your students on
a dizzying, room spinning ride! Fast and furious,
it features aggressive rhythmic drive, spiraling
melodies and a calm contrasting section that lasts
just long enough to catch your breath before you are
off a whirling finish. A great feature is exciting parts
for every band member, making a terrific teaching
tool that keeps students motivated and excited!

n VesuviusFrank Ticheli. Vesuvius is an
aggressive, rhythmically active work; a dance
representing the final days of the doomed city of
Pompeii. This exciting work displays a variety of
moods ranging from fierce canonic battle to quiet
oases of sinuous melody. For strong bands, this is
a real showpiece!

4 Victorious SoulsAndrew Poor. This could be
considered an overture to the human spirit. The
grandiose opening makes a profound musical
statement before leading to the expressive and
musical material of the middle section. From
there the tempo then picks up speed, driving to a
definitive and triumphal finish.

n Voices of the SkySamuel Hazo. The many
qualities and changes in appearance of the sky
are translated into musical moods through this
expressive work. The opening lyric section flows
between soloistic and full ensemble playing and
leads to a "sinister" fast section of driving rhythms
and mixed meter that crescendos to a powerful new
setting of the original melody to close the work.
Impeccable timing and emotional pacing sustain
and propel this effective work.

H West Highlands SojournRobert Sheldon.
Inspired by the composer's journey through
the western hill country of England and Wales,
this delightful piece borrows from folk melodies
he heard on a river near the Scottish border.
The three sections of the piece provide very
effective contrast and, with Sheldon's artful
scoring, this is an excellent choice for concert or
contest. Splendid!

Curnow. This impressive work is based on an
inspiring poem written by an American pilot in
World War II. The dazzling brass sonorities and
sweeping woodwind lines reflect the young man's

the world. A dramatic, vibrant work for concert
or contest!
