Although this haunting tune has the flavor and sentiment of a traditional Irish folk song, it was composed in 1995 by multifaceted artist Padraigin Ni Uallachain. Her inspiration for the song was the idea that when we are happy or sad, the elements and the natural world are aligned with our feelings. From the wistful lyrics of the song; Down by the river there's a tall willow tree, who weeps all night for you and me. This evocative setting for band follows this sentiment through peaks and valleys of sound and emotion. Dur: 3:10.

Händel's opera Scipio was written in 1725 and performed the following year in the King's Theatre, London. After Händel's death his operas fell into obscurity until the 1960s, when they experienced a major revival. This famous march from Scipio has however remained popular since its first performance and has been the Regimental Slow March of the British Grenadier Guards since the 18th century. The march is fairly simple and gives young bands the opportunity to play a well-known baroque melody which should be well within their technical ability.

This work is based on the story of the soldier and the princess from the film Cinema Paradiso. Long ago a poor soldier fell in love with a beautiful princess. He had nothing to offer her, but managed to meet her and declare his love. The princess was very taken by his emotional plea, and told him that if he were to wait under her balcony for one hundred days and nights, she would be his. Waiting patiently, the soldier endured all manner of torment from weather, wildlife and starvation. Finally on the next-to-last night, the soldier took up his chair and disappeared. The music evokes the atmosphere of the poignant story, and the work is divided into three different movements. Duration: 5:00.

The Golden Pass is a train line in the Swiss Alps that leads from Montreux, on Lake Geneva, to Lucerne in central Switzerland. This composition echoes the impressions of the passengers who watch the diversity of the landscape as they make this journey: the green meadows full of grazing cows and traditional chalets, the beautiful mountain lakes, the waterfalls and the mountain tops, including Brunig Pass.

The Hungarian Rondo by Arpad Balazs is a cheerful, good-humored composition structured with a double recurrence of the rondo theme. The first episode consists of increasingly densely woven imitations that chase each other playfully, and the second evokes the mood of bagpipe tunes. In brilliant and skilled fashion, each subsequent section becomes more richly orchestrated and decorative in nature. (Grade 3.5) Dur: 3:00.

Rio Bravo draws on artifacts of iconic western film music to portray the rugged landscape surrounding one of the longest, most fabled rivers in North America. The challenging, arid region along the brave river that divides Mexico from the southwestern United States---depicted in many a song and story---is characterized by mountains, canyons, and desert plains. The river, known north of the border as the Rio Grande, has called to itself settlers, cattle drivers, gunslingers, and outlaws. Rio Bravo transports listeners to a time and place where legends of the Old West were made! (3:00).

Flamenco is a style of music, usually played on the guitar to accompany dancing and singing, that has its home in Andalusia in southern Spain. It has its roots in the years of Moorish rule of the region (711-1492) although the modern flamenco style dates only from the 18th century. La Caracola (which is the Spanish name for the triton sea shell) is an annual festival of flamenco that takes place around the region’s capital, Seville, annually in May. This piece does not contain any traditional flamenco melodies but does capture wonderfully the colour, passion and energy of this seductive music in a ‘must-have’ work for Beginner Bands.Flamenco, een muziekstijl die gewoonlijk op de gitaar wordt gespeeld ter begeleiding van dans en zang, komt uit Andalusië in het zuiden van Spanje. De wortels liggen in de jaren van Moorse overheersing in de regio (711-1492), maarde moderne flamencostijlen dateren uit de achttiende eeuw. La Caracolá (de Spaanse benaming voor de tritonshoorn) is een jaarlijks flamencofestival dat in mei plaatsvindt rond Sevilla, de hoofdstad van de streek. Dit werk bevat geentraditionele flamencomelodieën, maar vangt de kleur en energie van deze verleidelijke muziek in een werk voor beginnende blaasorkesten.Der Flamenco ist in Andalusien in Südspanien zu Hause und wird gewöhnlich auf der Gitarre, zur Begleitung von Tanz und Gesang, gespielt. La Caracolá nennt sich ein Flamenco-Festival, das jedes Jahr im Mai rund um die Landeshauptstadt Sevilla stattfindet. La Caracolá von Philip Sparke enthält keine originalen Flamenco-Melodien. Es versucht vielmehr, die Farbe und die Energie dieser verführerischen Musik in einem Werk für Jugendblasorchester einzufangen.Il flamenco è una musica cantata e danzante, generalmente accompagnata da un gioco di chitarra sontuoso. La culla del flamenco si trova in Andalusia, nel sud della Spagna. La Caracol (nome spagnolo per tritone, una grande conchiglia), è un festival di flamenco che ogni anno si tiene nei pressi di Siviglia. Questa composizione per formazione junior non s’ispira ad alcuna melodia del repertorio del flamenco,ma cerca bensì di esprimere la luce, i colori e l’energia di questa musica seducente.
