Originally composed to introduce the various instruments of the orchestra, Britten's “Young Person's Guide†follows a set of variations based on a melody by Henry Purcell. In this setting for wind band, Richard Saucedo presents the opening theme followed by Britten's exuberant fugue which culminates in a glorious finale and recap of Purcell's melody. A stunning work for mature ensembles. Dur. 4:40.

Carter Pann’s Richard and Renée was written as a gift for two musician friends of his, Renée Kershaw and Dick Floyd. The first movement, “Renée’s Reply,†is a musical portrait of the time the composer spent with his friend in Italy. According to Pann, “the music strives for a poignancy inspired by this new event in their relationship accompanied by a backdrop so beautiful it defies words. A writer/composer (anyone, for that matter) cannot live on the Amalfi Coast and remain unchanged, unmarked.†The second movement, “Floyd’s Fantastic Five-Alarm Foxy Frolic,†is in a playful ragtime style, with an ending that the composer describes as “over the top.†Duration: 13’.

Drawing inspiration from the haunting beauty of the ring of mist that sometimes surrounds the moon (known as “lunar haloâ€) and also the legends and folklore associated with this phenomenon, Richard has created a masterful work for the concert stage. Into Moonlight's Mist opens quietly with transparent colors, then gradually builds and evolves throughout by adding layers of tonal richness and rhythmic intensity. Dur: 4:30.
