Pacem Noel

Pacheco Pass

Pageant of the Nobles - Rob Grice

Rob Grice has a way of writing melodies that are easy and fun to play. This is playable very early on in the beginning band studies. No clarinet crosses the break. 1st trumpet's highest note is A.

Pageantry

Panoramic

Pantomime - Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky

Paradigm Shift

Paradigm Shift is an energetic and aggressive concert selection that will amp up your band's confidence and wow any audience. Written for bands with at least one year's training, this piece is also sophisticated enough for groups with more experience. Students will have the opportunity to work on articulation, phrasing, and changing rhythms. Joseph Compello has done it again with this piece designed to make your ensemble sound great!

Passerine - Newfoundland Folk Song

Based on a Newfoundland folk song, Passerine refers to "the swallow" found in the lyric of this song of lost love. Carl Strommen gives us an exceptionally beautiful setting of this folk song that contains a transparent orchestration to begin the work, contrasted nicely with the later entrance of the full ensemble. Your ensemble will enjoy reflecting the romantic sentiment of Passerine broadly and with great expression.

Path of Destiny

Sean O'Loughlin's music is highly influenced by music for film, and this piece is meant to depict the action/battle music of the genre. Strong, powerful, and dramatic moments all permeate this piece from start to finish. It is a serious new piece for young bands.
