Arch of Triumph (French March) - Johnnie Vinson

Written in a traditional French style this stately march draws its title from the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Terrific as a change of pace march, this unique work is solidly scored with fanfare-like figures and appealingmelodies. Dur: 2:00

Archrival - Peter Terry

Archrival is a rhythmically driven piece with lots of cinematic excitement. You will hear the mysterious opening followed by angular themes and rhythmic drive that builds up to sweeping majestic moments. A stunning new piece from composer Peter Terry, this is quality sophisticated musical material for highlighting your band at contest or festival.

Arctic Fire - Robert Buckley

The cinematic approach to the music of Arctic Fire portrays many different images of the north - the crimson sunlight glinting off the icebergs, the radiance of the Northern Lights, the blaze of the red twig dogwood, the scarletred sunsets, and the fiery spirit of the people who live there. The piece opens and closes with a series of dramatic musical snapshots. Inbetween, the music evolves and transforms through a wide range of stylistic textures andmoods. A brilliantly scored and effective setting for winds. Dur: 5:15

Arcturus (Guardian Of The Sky) - Michael Sweeney

This incredibly well-written work for beginning players lives up to its title! Your young musicians will absolutelty love this heroic piece that sounds like it was written as the score to a movie about ancient warriors. Broad fanfares, big impact moments, driving rhythms, crisp articulations and perfectly scored and accessible chromatic harmonies will hold players and audience from beginning to end. Who says beginner musicians don't get exciting music?!

Arden Variations - John F. Edmunds

Arden Variations is a theme and variations form in three movements, each replete with melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic variations on the simple 8-measure chorale theme of the opening Prelude. Originally intended as an analytical study for students in the composer's Advanced Harmony course at Louisiana State University, the piece seemed to demand further development as each new harmonic device was introduced. Its frequent distant-key modulations and varied rhythmic excursions keep the simple melody alive and interesting throughout its six-and-a-half minute length. (6:30)
