As Moolinght Falls - Travis J. Weller

This beautiful work uses lyrical themes, rich scoring, gentle percussion, and dynamics to paint a picture of quiet reflection of the day that has passed, then builds to a dramatic climax before peacefully fading into the night. There are several opportunities for flute and clarinet solos. A perfect choice for concert or contest, this work provides an excellent opportunity to teach breath control, phrasing, tone, and ensemble playing.

As One Listens to the Rain - Daniel French

As One Listens to the Rain is a marriage of two distinct musical ideas. The first, a solitary, solemn melody, is introduced in the trumpet and cloaked in an aura of slowly shifting transparent harmonies. This idea soon gives wayto flowing lines and falling gestures that invoke an image of cascading rainfall. A hymn-like interlude provides a brief respite before the return of the rain which, in this final form, spins and tumbles over itself. A stirringand evocative work for modern winds. Dur: 6:30

As Tears Fall On Dawn's New Light - Richard L. Saucedo

Even though the ranges and rhythms are quite modest in this beautiful lyric piece for young bands, there is a wealth of musicality to be learned and enjoyed. Delicate and sensitive in the beginning, there is a logical ebb and flowto the music as it builds to a full ensemble climax then back to the quieter texture and harmonic shift at the end. A rewarding setting for your young players. Dur: 3:40

As The Clock Ticks - Barry E. Kopetz

As the Clock Ticks is a musical illustration of several clocks ticking simultaneously. Throughout the piece, the melody aligns with the regular pulse provided by the percussion section, and the woodblock, guiro, triangle and bells provide the clock-like pulse. With eyes closed, it is easy to imagine being within the clockmakers shop!
