Fronleichnamsfest - Stephan Jaeggi

Front and Center - Gene Milford

Composer Gene Milford is every bit as good of a march composer as any from histories past. His new march Front and Center is no exception. It has all of the traditional flair of the march greats in an approachable difficulty level for young bands. Perfect for festival adjudication.

Front and Center - Robert Buckley

Famed bandmaster Arthur Delamont always started his concerts with a rousing overture, and Front and Center is in this proud tradition. In a non-stop 9/8 rhythm, this piece explodes with energy and effervescence. Full of powerfulfanfares, lively melodies, driving percussion and dynamic contrasts, this exciting concert opener moves through different musical colors without ever losing its relentless drive. An exhilarating tour-de-force showcasing allsections of the band! Front and Center is the first movement of A Tribute to Arthur Delamont and was commissioned by the West Vancouver Youth Band. Dur: 3:15

Front and Centre! - Paul Murtha

Here's a marvelous and appealing first march for any young group. Carefully scored so that every section of the band has interesting parts, Paul uses a nice mix of full ensemble playing, counter lines, a percussion interlude and woodwind melodies.

Front Burner - Dana Wilson

As the title implies, this short yet dynamic work is intended as a fast-paced burner and quite possibly positioned at the front of any concert program. Filled with dynamic twists and turns, along with cascading woodwind passages and splashes of brass and percussion, there is a sense of almost being out of control as it reaches an exciting and dramatic finish. Dur: ca. 3:00 (Recorded live by the Eastman Wind Ensemble - Mark Scatterday, conductor)

Front Section - Bagley
