For The Next Thousand - Otto M. Schwarz

Perhaps a strange characteristic, but mankind has always had a fear of changing centuries and millennia. The end of the world and all kind of natural catastrophes has been forecasted, but have never come to pass. In For The Next Thousand composer Otto Schwarz tries to be more positive. In this piece he makes a toast to the new age, in which wind music too has to find a new way of staying attractive. The piece has elements of film music and has a slow-rock middle section, with a sax solo. With this piece, Schwarz hopes to make a contribution to the renewals necessary within the wind band scene.

For Unto You Is Born This Day! - James L. Hosay

A magnificent offering for your Christmas performance! James L. Hosay has taken the story of the birth of Christ, according to the Gospel of Luke, and set it to heart lifting music. A stunning and unforgettable performance can be had with a chorus or with a narrator. Either way, this piece will add to the festive mood of your Holiday concert and help your audience feel the true spirit of Christmas. If you do a concert where a chorus performs half and a concert band performs half, consider programming FOR UNTO YOU IS BORN THIS DAY as a grand finale. If your performance stage is a bit cramped for that many musicians all at once, perhaps having the chorus surround the audiencewill work for you. The "surround-sound" effect can be wonderful.
