Par SCHWARZ OTTO M.. With this composition, Otto M. Schwarz shows himself totally capable of composing a work with a somber, almost melancholic character. Melody and counterpoint, accompanied by a peaceful harmony, play a kind of question and answer game in this short composition. The piece is written in a rather ABA form, with the perusiion complementing the whole very effectively. / Niveau : 2 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Fanfare

From the hottest movie soundtrack to come along in years, here is the dynamic opening number from The Greatest Showman. The opening anthem-like strains lead to an up-tempo chorus with plenty of excitement and drive. / Partitions classique / Ensemble et orchestre / Ensemble vents / HAL LEONARD

Par VAN DER ROOST JAN. Jan van der Roost’s new work Jubilus will make an ideal opening piece for any event. It is in a classical ABA form, beginning with a rising brass fanfare which is quickly replaced by a contrasting expressive lyrical theme. The two themes alternate for a few seconds until an exciting new atmosphere is created with the lively allegro. This eventful piece lets you show off many aspects of your player’s style and technique without losing overall unity / Niveau : 4 / Ouverture / Répertoire / Fanfare

Alfred Music is pleased to present a three-piece halftime show based on the thrilling music from the hit motion picture Godzilla. Composer Alexandre Desplat has crafted a stunning score that translates perfectly to the marching band medium.

Par CURNOW JAMES. Captivated by the rolling hills, majestic horse farms and beautiful horses of the Central Kentucky Bluegrass region, James Curnow has named this exciting overture after one of the most scenic areas near his home. After a fanfare opening, the Percussion section provides high energy for the main theme. A contrasting middle section showcases the expressive abilities of your ensemble. With a return of the main theme, momentum builds steadily to the exciting conclusion. Exhilarating! / Niveau : 2 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Fanfare

Part 2 of the Godzilla show begins slowly with a beautiful theme that builds to an intense middle section. This transitions into a short percussion feature before the energetic conclusion. / Marching Band

Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten. Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten was composed by Georg Neumark in about 1641 and was subtitled ‘Trostlied’ literally meaning consolation song. Songbooks at the time showed the popularity of this song and it is still well-known today partly due to Johann Sebastian Bach’s use of the melody for one of his own chorals. In Jan de Haan’s arrangement the choral is heard twice, once, alternating with the original motif from the introduction and a second time, without interruption, reflecting the composer’s original intention - a song of consolation. / Niveau : 3 / Hymnes et chorals / Recueil / Fanfare
