And Hold in Memory... - Johnnie Vinson

This beautifully constructed tone poem features a memorable lyric melody stated first by the horns and clarinets, and later by a trumpet duet accompanied by the brass section. Johnnie uses a nice blend of lighter textures with the woodwinds prominent, alternating with fuller sections voiced for the entire ensemble. This touching composition is carefully paced and masterfully scored. Dur: 4:00 (Includes full performance CD)

And Stars Remain... - Robert Levy

And Still, the Spirit - Philip Sparke

This work was commissioned by Dr. Robert Oertli from Mhlin, Switzerland, and is based on an earlier composition called Spirit of the Sequoia. The piece is inspired by how the human spirit can gain from setbacks: we become stronger after adversity. Sparke used the Californian redwood tree as a metaphor for this basic idea. The remarkable life cycle of these amazing trees involves them dropping seeds to the ground, which require heat to open their shells and germinate; the seeds require destruction in order to procreate. This piece is particularly suitable for younger bands - one of the last wishes of the initial commissioner.
