Perhaps the oldest song of friendship, Robert Burns wrote the words to Auld Lang Syne in 1788 and set them to music using the melody of a previously existing Scottish folk song. This tune was later changed to the version most often heard today. Both melodies are presented here in this masterful Paul Clark arrangement that musically evokes warm memories of the past, and a positive feeling of friendship and hope for the future. Opportunities for musicality and expressive playing make it appropriate for bands of a wide range of experience. Auld Lang Syne is the perfect closing selection for your Holiday, or any, concert!

Not well received in its earliest performances, Mennin's Fantasia was impressive enough to engender fondest hopes for the young composer's promise when he would reach his 30s! Its two movements are somewhat darker than Mennin's usual tone, but have held up very well in the decades since. The Fantasia can be especially illuminating to listeners new to Mennin's music because it displays, simply and clearly, virtually all the principles upon which most of his later works are constructed.
