You won’t be able to resist moving and dancing to the Latin beat of Calle Arriba! Calle Arriba is a real place, and there is a small-town block party happening in the countryside. An infectious pulse driven by percussion calls to all ages to come dance. The sun has set, but the heat has not – and when the samba whistle blows, EVERYBODY DANCES!

This powerful work pays tribute to the many battles fought between the Native Americans and Europeans (often referred to as The American Indian Wars). The music moves between Native American-influenced themes and western harmonies before moving into an amalgamation of the two. Incredible writing by a teenage composer!

Instr umental colors abound in this emotionally moving memorial piece, Solace in the Equinox by Tyler S. Grant. Impressionistic passages float in and out of varied instrumental combinations, creating sonic palettes of pastel colors and swirling shapes. Just as the fall equinox balances darkness and light, the music exhibits a harmonious balance between moments of quiet and delicate textures with contrasting fully scored statements of brightness and joy.

Canadian composer Kenley Kristofferson was commissioned to write The Meeting Place, a work depicting the connection between people and the warmth and security of a shared space – in this case, the band room. The music celebrates these places which can feel like home, welcome all kinds of people, make them feel like a part of something bigger than themselves, and hold special power for us to feel safe and connected. With lush harmonies and song-like melodies, this ballad gives everyone in the band a chance to shine and contribute to a shared story about, for some of them, one of their most cherished spaces. Performers and audiences alike are sure to love this piece. Moving music!

The most important work to date for this fine com poser, and a truly exciting one it is! Jubileus transmits a feeling of exuberance and joy with its constantly rising theme and underlying harmonies. A reflective middle section features solo trumpet and a moving woodwind theme, and the finale is breathtaking. A work that is destined to become standard repertoire for contests and festivals every where.

This innovative work uses optional audience participation to create the sound of a massive stampede moving through the concert hall. Beginning with simple harmonies to depict life on the open range, a distant bass drum roll indicates the beginning of the stampede. Members of the band (and audience) soon join in as the music continues to build. An aleatoric section with temple blocks simulates the sounds of racing horse hooves. Incredibly exciting with a multitude of original sounds!

All the While was inspired by a very special person in Tyler Arcari's life. Director's will be happy to find many opportunities for emotional and passionate playing with plenty of fun in the middle for young bands.  All the While gives students a number of chances to work on expressive playing during the beginning and ending sections, and offers a light rhythmic middle section for contrast.
Program Notes:All the While is a bit of a personal piece for me. I was inspired to write it by a very special person in my life. It might be a young-band piece but I feel that it has the capacity for great emotion and passionate playing as well as a little fun in the middle. Sometimes it is difficult to tell people how you feel, even if you have known them for a long time. I think sometimes we say in our heads that “I have felt this way for a long time,” and all the while never being able to put it to words.About the work:The piece opens with a flute and alto saxophone duet. This melody trades off at m. 10 with the addition of new voices and harmonies building in intensity all the way to m. 28. I personally like to use extended phrases in this section, though it looks like it would just utilize four-measure phrases. I feel this adds to the momentum building in dynamic intensity. Measure 28 is a subito change beginning with a prominent Timpani solo. The following section should be played as lightly as possible to avoid a lumbering feel. In mm. 68- 70, the agogic accents should not be very heavy, but more pointed in their momentum to m. 70.Measures 70–76 should be taken with metric liberty bringing out all of the moving parts in the low brass. The low brass really adds the foundation of momentum for the rest of the band here. Measure 76 to the end, though a repetition of material from the beginning, should be played as the high point of the piece and familiar conclusion.

Commissioned to honor a beloved teacher who had passed away, this eloquent piece both begins and ends with warm and moving chorale sections. The contrasting allegro con brio theme is full of energy and vitality. While this piece is not very difficult, it features close contemporary harmonies and it provides ample opportunities for expressive playing especially in the woodwinds. Includes lots of tasteful percussion parts to keep your drummers involved. A wonderful composition that will pay big musical dividends and it is a wonderful choice for contest or concert performances. VERY VERY NICE!

Perfect for your next concert or contest performance, Code of Honor will inspire feelings of courage and adventure. A robust opening flows naturally into the main theme proposed by the trumpets, accompanied by the dauntless snare drummer. Uplifting harmonies add to the already spirited mood. Things calm down a bit during a moving but dignified lyrical section. We are soon propelled once again into action by the snare drum and our heroic theme carries us to a rousing conclusion.

Soaring is a mode of flight in which height is gained slowly by using air that is moving upwards. Written for music educator’s Randy Heuvelman’s 30 years of service to the Woodland (Illinois) School District, Soaring paints a music portrait of dedication, compassion and intensity, all aspects of this educator’s tenure. A slower middle section alternating between choirs of woodwinds and brass paints a serene portrait with lush harmonies and soaring countermelodies. The extensive percussion scoring utilizes timbres that add and complement the completed musical setting. Soaring is truly one of David’s best works.

Inspired by a sunrise over the water in the composer's home state of Florida, At Sunrise includes a beautiful and memorable melody moving amid changing textures and harmonies, leading to a magnificent full ensemble. It begins gently, with a transparent quality to portray the first signs of light. Breathtaking colors then unfold with the rich, lyric sounds presented here with uncommon sensitivity, leading to a dramatic final climax. From here, the work subsides, ending as it began, leaving a spell not soon forgotten. Ideal for concert and festival use, this is lyric music of the highest quality!

The term passage can variously describe a passageway of travel, a musical phrase, or perhaps the soul's moving on from this world to the next. In this work for band, dark and rich sonorities are contrasted with a lilting, Celtic-flavored melody as it alternates with striking passages from the brass. Later, an alto sax soloist adds a haunting quality to the mood followed by a return of the ethnic drumming heard earlier. This unique and rewarding composition is beautifully paced and skillfully orchestrated using every section of the band.

Although composed for a video game, this African-flavored modern masterpiece has taken on a life of its own in pop culture as well as on the concert stage. This transcription by Matt Conaway matches the original orchestration and is compatible with the composer's own version for chorus. Performed with or without chorus, the effect is dramatic and moving. (MusicWorks).
