In recent years, Oklahoma has seen a great increase in the development of wind energy. This development in sustainable energy sources and the winds that flow across the great state serve as the inspiration for this composition. The piece begins by depicting the great open spaces that stretch for miles across the Oklahoma landscape. Small gusts of wind (represented by scalar and arpeggiated passages in the mallets and woodwinds) dance across the landscape. The piece picks up pace as the wind races across the land, turning the turbines and charging towards the future. (5:30) / Concert Band

This piece starts with immediate exhilaration and velocity, and is full of energy, with uplifting syncopated rhythms and strong melodic lines that will engage both the students and audience.

Par ANDERSON JULIAN. A collection of eight engagingly quirky miniatures from 1997, Julian Anderson’s Poetry Nearing Silence was inspired by the work of artist Tom Phillips. The highly contrasted, often bizarre juxtapositions of Phillips’s The Heart of a Humument – whichsees him ‘treating’ an obscure late Victorian novel by selecting certain words and phrases, and then painting over the rest of each page – are mirrored in vividly imagined music whose pithy energy creates a playful, virtuoso tour de force for allseven instruments.

Par ARNOLD MALCOLM. Ivan March of Gramophone says '. . .a bleak unease in the unrelenting energy of the first movement, which becomes even more discomforting in the desolate start to the Lento. This leads to a forlorn suggestion of a funeral march, which then ironically quickens in pace but is suddenly cut down - the drum strokes become menacingly powerful and the despairing mood of the movement's opening returns. . . and grips the listener in the music's pessimism. . .' This is a Study Score of Arnold's Symphony #6 Op.95. / Niveau : Elémentaire / Répertoire / Conducteur

The compelling basic chromatic themes have been intergalactically scored with delicious sci-fi flavor especially for your beginners, and is charged with energy and intrigue. The existence of Planet X was rebuked by NASA as early as 1993. Or was it? (2:30) / Concert Band

Composer/arranger Carl Strommen has proven he has the right stuff to write for younger bands. This light and easy Latin original starts simply and builds. As it builds, you may recognize the chord progression to the classic pop tune, Sunny. The cowbell helps maintain the energy and drive for this chart, the solos for alto sax and trumpet are written or ad-lib, and the brass ranges are modest. Additional percussion parts can be added if desired. The lower instruments have an easy yet meaty part in this chart. The bottom line is a quality chart that's fun to play, educational and well received by the audience. This title is available through SmartMusic. (3:50)

Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo is an emerging star in the realm of choral works, and also with music for wind band. Similar to his earlier band works Meridian and The Spheres, Serenity is based on a successful choral work. Beautifully arranged by J. Eric Wilson along with the composer, this version for wind band maintains all the wonder and magic of the original work. The opening is ethereal and somber, with sustained chords in clarinets and bowed percussion supporting a delicate oboe solo. The middle section shifts the principal modality from minor to major, and the layering orchestration and rising tessitura creates a tremendous rush of energy that leads to a triumphant climax. The closing section returns to the timbre of the opening, but now painted with hopefulness and healing. / Ensemble A Vent Partition Et Parties
