Handel in the Band is a virtuoso set of symphonic variations on one of Handel's best known keyboard dances, the Sarabande from his Suite in D minor, HWV 437, based on the Spanish traditional dance La Folia. Kenneth Downie's work was commissioned by Brass Band Treize Etoiles, for performance at the 2013 Swiss National Brass Band Championships, where it was conducted by James Gourlay. The title is a reference to Percy Grainger's popular Handel in the Strand, and is indicative of the witty and theatrical nature of the music, which is more playful than conventional competition pieces and as such offers different challenges to brass bands as well as being thoroughly entertaining for audiences. Kenneth Downie is one of the most respected and experienced brass band composers. His music has been widely performed and published throughout the brass band world since the 1960s.

In de jaren zeventig creëerden Kenneth Gamble en Leon Huff de Philly Sound (Sound of Philadelphia), die de weg vrijmaakte voor de latere opkomst van de disco. Het geheim van dit succesvolle duo lag in de enigszins jazzy stijl vancomponeren en een perfect samengaan van strijk- en koperinstrumenten. Soul Train was het muzikale thema van een tv-programma, dat een groot succes bleek. Gamble & Huff besloten daarop om een single te produceren met de titelT.S.O.P. (The Sound of Philadelphia), een nummer dat wereldwijd de hitparades bestormde.

Commissioned to celebrate the sesquicentennial of the state of West Virginia, Forever Free incorporates indigenous elements of the state's musical heritage, capturing a robust and celebratory spirit. Cast in a single movement in three sections, the title is inspired by the state motto, “Montani semper liberi” (“Mountaineeers forever free”). The work is unified at the outset and closing by a ceremonial fanfare that is based on thematic figures from the state song West Virginia Hills. A contrasting middle section features a lyric variant accompanied by a militaristic snare drum and timpani cadence, before all thematic elements are combined for the buoyant and festive conclusion. Duration: 4:25.
