Onward-Upward (March) - Edwin Franko Goldman

A delightful example of the Goldman style at its most infectious, this concert edition by Edward Lisk will make this charmer from the early 1930s available for a new generation of performers and listeners. Edwin Franko Goldman (1878-1956), who founded the Goldman band in 1918, was one of the great bandsmen who was inspired by the example of John Philip Sousa in creating the modern marching band repertoire.

Orion's Sword

An evocative and mysterious opening, heroic themes and cinematic scoring characterize this varied and musically rich piece by the well-known television and film composer, Alan Lee Silva. The band writing is fresh and the tune from the slow middle section, which is divided among solo flute, oboe and clarinet, is particularly appealing. This piece will be a great choice for contest and concert use.

Oscillation

Osmosis

Out of the Winter

Over Peaceful Horizons

Over There - Randy Navarre

There is a song you can have in any concert and a great salute to our Armed Service people. Written for the men to come home from World War I, it is still a great song to play at any concert. Everyone gets to play the melody. Clarinets do not cross the break. 1st trumpet's highest note is C.

Overlords

Overlords is a dramatic work for the developing concert band. An overlord is a person who is in a position of power or supremacy. The music reflects this with its powerful and aggressive style.

Overture to a Small Town - Cooper Minnis

Written in honor of the victims of the mass shooting that took place at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas on November 5th, 2017, Overture to a Small Town portrays a sense of hope, dignity, and innocence. The piece features movement of sections together as one unified voice, with individual articulations in various parts, such as the flutes, trumpets, and mallets, throughout. A powerful statement.
