Railroad Ramble - Peter Kleine Schaars

This composition was commissioned by the Concert Band of the NS (the Dutch railroad company) and is intended as an opening piece, bringing the band and the audience on track for an exciting concert! The ascending chords over theostinato bass of the introduction represent the energetic pulling away of the train. The main theme in 10/8 time makes one drift away in the rhythm of full speed. The clownish middle section reflects the seemingly disorderlyactivity in a station hall during rush hour. This is followed by a reprise of the main theme and the introduction, which brings this fascinating musical rail journey to an end.

Rain and Snow on the Cedar Cliffs - Ed Kiefer

This wonderful new contest and festival piece is based on two folk songs, Rain and Snow and Old Joe Clark. It starts out with the lush Rain and Snow and builds to a beautiful climax before leading into the up-tempo variants on Old Joe Clark.

Rain Dance - Molter

A multi-cultural piece for the youngest bands which is full of appeal for players and audiences alike. While the composition strongly suggests a Native American theme, it uses musical concepts such as the slur, legato tonguing and dynamic contrast as a means to aid young musicians in understanding the importance of playing "musically".
