A Certain Slant of Light is inspired by the introspective mood created by the rays of light on a dark cloudy day.  A colorful, murmuring introduction is followed by a rich main theme in a minor key. It is a well-scored and fresh-sounding piece that will help young bands enhance their musicality.
Rays of light against the dark of a cloudy day, or these same rays of light as they penetrate a dark room in late afternoon can create a mood of introspection and make us pause to reflect on the nature of life, loss and hope. A Certain Slant of Light is inspired by the title, but does not depict the actual poem There is a Certain Slant of Light by Emily Dickinson.A Certain Slant of Light opens with a colorful murmuring introduction followed immediately by a statement of the main theme of the piece. The opening briefly returns, followed by a setting of the melody in flute with woodwind accompaniment. The opening then returns and grows to a climax built on variations of the main theme. The piece fades to silence with a soft echo of the opening murmuring material.I enjoyed writing this piece and hope your students will enjoy playing these contrasting styles and that you will find the piece beneficial in teaching important musical concepts.Peter Terry, 2018.

Drummers need to be able to practice, but many times it needs to happen away from the kit, either at low volume or while on the go. Vic Firth's Single-sided Practice Pads set the standard high for drumming practice with a portable, soft rubber pad that helps keep your chops sharp, whether you're perfecting a new piece of music, or working on stick control. Even when played with full force at the loudest dynamic, this pad absorbs the blows and controls the volume for longer and later practice, giving your wrists a complete workout. The natural playing surface provides the realistic feel and response of a drumhead with excellent rebound. Play on any surface, drum or right in your lap. The durable wooden base and underside grip keep this pad in place. The 12″ size also fits most snare stands for convenient practice. The trademark Vic Firth logo is printed on top, showing the world you're playing with the right feel. Made in the USA.

During the Jazz age of the 1920's, the cat's pajamas referred to anything special, unique or cool. Musically speaking, the image of a cat in pajamas might suggest combining low clarinets (reminiscent of Prokofiev's use of a clarinet to describe the cat in Peter And The Wolf) with a jaunty little tune in ragtime style, adding a few instrumental meows, and you have (what else?): The Cat’s Pajamas: A Felicitous Feline Ragtime Novelty!

Woody Woodblocker is a novelty piece featuring the title instrument as a soloist. It is suitable for bands currently in the first year of lessons. It should be performed in a lively manner and played at a tempo deemed suitable by the director. While the typical woodblock is usually struck with a drumstick, the director may wish to explore other types of blocks and mallets which may prove more effective with bands of varying sizes. To overcome the issue of balance, the woodblock notes are primarily sounded while the winds have rests within a measure. Young bands, therefore, with more than a few players in the percussion section may use more than one woodblock player on the solo part without upsetting the balance between woodblock(s) and winds. Thank you for choosing this composition.

This impressive patriotic medley is an outstanding selection for the up-and-coming young band or smaller ensemble with limited instrumentation. Incorporating America, My Country, Tis of Thee, and God of Our Fathers, this energetic work has limited ranges and technical demands which make it an excellent choice as both a teaching tool and concert selection. Highly recommended!
