The Old Boatman - Florence Price

Originally for piano, this lyric work is a shining presentation of Price's signature style. The first statement is in E-flat Major, then modulates to F Major. Although short, the piece requires mature musicality, secure intonation and vibrato from your ensemble, with delicate dynamics and rubato. There are brief solos for oboe and euphonium.

The Old Buccaneer - Richard Summers

Fifteen men on the dead man's chest! This phrase will give you an idea of the basis for this delightful new piece from composer Richard Summers that is inspired by the Robert Louis Stevenson book Treasure Island. The piece is bold, yet very playable for the grade level. There are plenty of teaching opportunities too with nice counterpoint in a piece the students will love to play over and over again. Your band will sound its best on this contest style piece that invokes the adventurous spirit of pirates!

The old Fortress of Luxembourg - Georges Sadeler

"The Old Fortress of Luxembourg" is a commissioned work by the Luxembourg Ministry of Culture for the overture of the official ceremony of Luxembourg's National Day. The piece is less concerned with history, but rather draws inspiration from the architecture of the ancient fortress of Luxembourg, known as Lucilinburhuc."The fortress, over 1000 years old and also referred to as the "Gibraltar of the North," primarily consists today of the Bock Rock, the crypt, the casemates (an underground defense system consisting of kilometers of tunnels), and the Holy Spirit Citadel. These elements are portrayed through radiant fanfare sounds, rhythmic orchestral movements, patriotic choral melodies, and at times, somber musical depictions.As an optional highlight, a choir, supported by a boys' choir, interprets the newly composed text of the third verse of the Luxembourgish National Anthem, adding an additional touch of patriotic grandeur to this piece.
