Not hard, but very impressive, this David Shaffer original is perfect concert or contest material for mid-level bands. It starts with a stately fanfare introduction which leads directly into the furious section. This section features a fast tempo where several playable yet independent melody lines are intertwined to create a very busy yet pleasing musical landscape. An adagio section follows before a reprise of the furious section leads to a big finish. A rewarding work that is a welcome addition to any performance!

A very exciting and contemporary work that is descriptive of the tragedy that occurred in Central America in 1541 when a long quiet volcano that had filled with water suddenly erupted, sending mud and water covering the city of Ciudad Vieja killing many and completely wiping out the city. The name of that volcano was Agua, which on that day brought whelm on to everything that its waters touched. This is the second published work by young composer Cory McBride and was written when he was a 16 year old high school student. Bold, unique and distinctive, includes solos for flute, tenor sax, bari sax & horn and it’s an excellent programming choice for any festival or concert performance by better bands.

A great new edition of Karl L. King’s classic circus piece with a happy ragtime beat. Originally written to accompany a trick horse act with the Barnum & Bailey’s Circus, the tune soon became so popular that it was used for a wide variety of acts including clown walk-a-bouts. Bob Foster’s arrangement retains all of the color and excitement of the original while making it playable with the modern concert band instrumentation. It’s not easy, but it sure is fun!
