North Star - Peter Terry

The North Star appears to the naked eye as a single bright star in a circle of apparent darkness. This has made it a beacon and a guide to explorers and travelers. North Star is a dramatic fanfare for band that celebrates the courageous exploration of the unknown in search of personal discovery and freedom. Composer Peter Terry continues to write interesting music for even the youngest of band musicians.

North Tower - David Gorham

Gorhamss accessible work provides conductors with an exciting work, which will be a very popular festival or concert selection. Written for the University of Arkansas band, this selection is very impressive, yet it is very playable.

North Winds - William J. Schinstine

North-South College All Stars - Henry Fillmore

As a composer, Henry Fillmore (1881-1956), was one of the greatest practitioners of the American style march. Written for the 1952 Orange Bowl game between the North and South College Football All Stars, this march has all the elements of the mature Fillmore style: energy, brilliance and abundant, memorable tunes. Robert Foster's concert edition will liven up any program and would also make a great encore.

Northern Anniversary - Harrie Janssen

Northern Landscapes - Peter Graham

Northern Lights - Alan Lee Silva

Featuring a lovely and appropriate use of mallet percussion instruments, especially bells and other delicate members of the percussion section, Northern Lights is evocative, melodically distinguished and cleverly scored to help a young band sound its best. The contrast between the natural minor of the woodwind melody at the beginning and the grander, major mode brass theme introduced later is nicely maintained throughout this very effective piece.

Northern Lights - Larry Neeck

A dramatic Larry Neeck composition for younger bands which opens with a majestic fanfare. The bold and effective Allegro section gives everyone in the band a chance to shine and Neeck's skillful scoring will allow your young band to attain a new level of musical expression. An excellent choice for contest or concert performances. (Recorded on the CD "Tribute & Triumph")

Northern Lights - Yukiko Nishimura

The northern lights---also known as aurora borealis---are the subject of this stunning piece by Yukiko Nishimura, which weaves together individual musical lines to create a beautiful texture and sonority. The waves of light are similar to the waveform of sound frequencies, and these linear musical sequences depict that concept. Northern Lights is a spectacular work that will captivate your students.
