4e For Heaven and the Future—Samuel R. Hazo.
The title of this expansive work draws inspiration
from a poem by Robert Frost, and the thematic
material is a creative interpretation of the English
folk song Seventeen Come Sunday. Differing
from Vaughan William's treatment, this setting
remains at a slow tempo throughout, undergoing
a myriad of harmonic and textural variations. It's
beautifully and effectively paced with key impact
points occurring at just the right moments.

Fugue in G minor (The Little)—J.S. Bach/arr.
Caleb Hudson. This intermediate version of Little
Fugue in G minor succeeds in upholding Bach's
mastery as well as remaining accessible to a wide
range of musicians. There are several optional
ossia measures which offer the player a slightly
more challenging opportunity.

and creative work should inspire the imaginations

exhilarating hot-air balloon ride was the inspira-
tion for this concert and festival work for young
band. The opening explosion of energy and sound
that begins the piece will command everyone's
immediate attention. Then the energy subsides
and builds again as we begin our glorious flight,
with the music taking on a soaring quality that
gives the effect of floating on air. A beautifully
expressive middle section follows, invoking

breezes; then the opening theme returns, bringing

4e The Legend of Taum Sauk—Larry Clark. A
strong concert or contest piece that depicts a
classic Romeo and Juliet saga involving two
different Native American tribes. The drama of
this story unfolds through the dramatic music,
beginning in a fast-paced, pulsating 6/8 groove.
This is followed by a tender love song built on the
same musical material which then leads back to
the up-tempo opening for a dramatic conclusion.
A solid work that introduces 6/8 time and gives
you great cross-curricular possibilities.

lightning strikes and creating powerful man-
made electrical storms. This work draws on
