Energy Wave

Starting with a quick and vibrant introduction based on a two-measure rhythmic ostinato, this piece quickly transitions to a softer exciting section where the percussion section maintains the rhythmic ostinato in the vibraphone and other percussion instruments. Develop the concepts of groove, pulse, transitions, and ostinatos in this driving, energetic concert piece.

Enter, Anew

This piece's triumphant character evokes the excitement, uncertainty, anticipation, and determination of embarking on new chapters in life. It inspires performers to clear their minds, refresh themselves, and enter with confidence.With both triumphant tutti moments and tender, expressive sections, the piece explores a range of textures and styles. Clarinets stay under the break and percussion drives the composition with a solid rhythmic foundation. An exciting and accessible addition to beginning band repertoire that sounds harder than it really is.

Enterprise

Here is a dynamic concert overture from composer Jospeh Compello. The first theme is bold and pointed while the second theme is lyrical and somewhat Wagnarian in nature. The warm harmonic prgression of the tranquil middle section creates delightful musical moments. A real winner for contest performance!

Entry of the Gladiators - Julius Fučík

One of the most popular European-style marches, Entry of the Gladiators is best-known to many listeners as the entry music of the traditional circus. This popular classic, with its oh-so-hummable trio, is presented here in a first-class edition for concert band that will light up any program by a group that can tackle it with the requisite energy and fire.

Error Detection - Student's Edition - Robert Spradling

The Error Detection: Exercises for the Instrumental Conductor texts are designed to improve the critical listening skills of the conducting student through real music excerpts that contain planted errors in the parts for the conductor to find. Both books contain 54 excerpts from standard band literature from grades 2 to grade 6 so students gain knowledge of real music they can use later, not just non-musical etudes. The teacher's edition contains over 350 pages of materials with analysis sheets and answer keys to help the conducting teacher to easily evaluate the student's progress. The teacher's edition also comes with a CD-ROM containing all of the instrumental parts for all of the musical excerpts as PDF files, so the teacher can just print the amount of parts needed for each example, and the examples are arranged to sound satisfying with as little as five players. The Error Detection program has been tested for over 3 years at major university programs like the University of Minnesota, Illinois State University, and the College-Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati.
