H Colas Breugnon (Overture)Dmitri Kabalevsky/
trans. Hunsberger. This fabulous overture from the
1930's contains a pulsating and driving rhythmic
force, perfectly balanced by the flowing secondary
theme. As transcriber, Donald Hunsberger
describes, "the orchestral colors are in a class of
their own, ranging from overwhelming fortissimos
to chamber effects to raucous splashes of wind and
percussion energy."

H Emmanuel VariantsRobert E. Foster. Serving a
dual purpose as a contest piece or as a real tour de
force on a Christmas concert, Emmanuel Variants
is an exceptionally innovative setting of the ancient
and well known Christmas carol O Come, O Come
Emmanuel. Beginning with a stirring brass fanfare
leading into a quiet, meditative setting of the hymn,
a series of developments utilizing different voicings,
rhythmic treatments and harmonic developments
follows. This most appealing treatment then
concludes with a return of the brass fanfare for a
brilliant finale!

mature and powerful work explores the dark and

n FusionBrian Balmages. Just as the title
suggests, this three-movement contemporary work
draws from various types of pop music and dance
forms and sets them in a symphonic framework.
The opening movement, Overture, is a short fanfare
based loosely around Irish dance rhythms and
melodies. The second movement, Ballad, gets its
inspiration from a variety of aspects of pop ballads.
Fusion, the final movement, is a combination of
rock, funk, swing and classical music in a modern
setting. Intense and driving!

n Ghost Train-Complete (Score and parts)
Eric Whitacre. An extremely programmatic
work that tells a story from American folklore
of a supernatural train that roars throughout
the Western United States. The first movement,
Ghost Train, is rich in effects in describing the
locomotive. The second movement, At the
Station, replaces the vivid train sounds with more
abstract ideas in depicting departing passengers.
The third movement, Motive Revolution, has the
train resuming its ghostly journey.

H Ghost Train-Movement 1 (Score and parts)
Eric Whitacre. One of the most popular works
of modern band literature; the first movement
is a very effective program piece. Resplendent
in compositional effects that describe a spectral
steam locomotive with the eerie sound of a
train whistle, the gradual start of journey and its
relentless movement throughout the countryside.
A true classic!
2332591 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . . . 150.00
GloriaRandol Alan Bass. Originally composed
for full orchestra and chorus, Gloria is a splendid
transcription of one of the most critically acclaimed
works written for the holiday season. The setting
contains multi-metric, dance-like rhythmic sections
contrasted with passages of singing, romantic
lyricism. A true masterwork!

l GlorianaJay Bocook. Gloriana, commissioned
by Furman University for the inauguration of its
12th president, is based on The Faerie Queene, an
incomplete English epic poem written by Edmund
Spenser and dedicated to Queen Elizabeth I. In
the poem, Queen Elizabeth is represented as the
faerie queen herself, Gloriana. This stately work
for winds and percussion contains a regal quality
enhanced by soaring melodies and punctuated
with fanfare-like brass figures. The optional organ
part provides an added dimension to the overall
uplifting effect.
