Of Strife (1. From A Time Of Strife) - Eric Ewazen

A commission by the U.S. Air Force Band of the West allowed Ewazen to consider the ten years following the events of 9/11/2001, resulting in A Time of Strife, a Time of Peace. The first movement considers the long wars and the losses entailed through soaring lyrical lines above a rhythmic, pounding accompaniment, as Ewazen puts it. The second movement is a bittersweet celebration on the death of the perpetrator and a future of joy, peace, and life. Ewazen says, A burst of joyous energy bringing this chapter in our history to a close.

Of Sun And Wheat - Holsinger

This Slovenian Folksong Fantasy contains all the David Holsinger compositional trademarks: rich sonorities, rambunctious rhythms, soaring lines and a closing fusion of melodic gestures that yearns to be played with wild abandon! Not for the faint of heart! A powerful work for mature bands!

Of the Silent Night Begotten - Matthew R. Putnam

Of the Silent Night Begotten is a more contemplative setting of the Christmas evergreen Silent Night. Composer Matthew R. Putnam uses recurring original music as the glue that holds the setting together and then combines its lush flowing material with the beautiful carol for a lovely effect.

Of Thee I Sing Overture - George Gershwin

Of Time and Change - James Swearingen

A beautiful introduction on a well-established hymn instantly identifies this musical fantasy as the perfect choice for a concert or festival performance. Spirited themes lead us to the beauty of a highly expressive middle section. In closing, a driving rendition of the hymn gives way to a joyous ending that is both bold and dramatic. This wonderful composition has been carefully orchestrated to make your group sound its absolute best! Very impressive!
