The great Karl King wrote many wonderful marches, and The Caravan Club is one of his most interesting and unusual works. Heavy and ponderous at times, light and frisky at others, this march was used often in the circus to accompany tiger acts. An ominous introduction leads to a lumbering first strain, followed by a delightful contrasting, almost ragtime-like second strain. The trio features a wonderful melody with euphonium countermelody, in the style made so famous by King. The weighty breakstrain returns to a minor key feel, and then concludes with an embellished version of the trio. One of the march King’s very best! Immense!

Imagine an oasis in the desert. Far in the distance a caravan is sighted. The air is filled with excitement and anticipation, the quiet desert becoming louder and more animated as the large caravan approaches and passes. This scene is musically depicted in Larry Neeck’s Desert Caravan, which provides numerous opportunities for your band to work with melody, dynamics, and drama. Transport your audience to a faraway place, as the sounds of the camels and their herdsman slowly die away, and the caravan fades into the distance. A delightful musical journey!

In Book 3, Mary Leaf provides pieces that expand a pianist's concepts of rhythm and harmony. Students experience a solar eclipse with unusual harmonies, express an exotic melody at a caravanserai in the deserts of Africa, play a bit of the blues followed by a Baroque-styled piece, and convey a gorgeous cloudy day. Most of the nine pieces are 3 pages, and teachers will find this a very useful book-good teaching material.
