Tides - Bill Calhoun

Tides calls to comparison the currents of the sea and our own human emotions. The piece is the perfect vehicle for younger groups to refine their ensemble playing skills. Written in a chorale-like setting, the piece challenges the students' abilities to listen and perform with expression. Filled with emotion, Tides provides the ingredients necessary for contrast in any concert program.

Tides of Change - Bruce W. Tippette

Tides are typically associated with the daily rise and fall of the oceans. Tides of Change revolves around a simple yet evolving two-measure motive that evokes images of lifes triumphs and challenges. The gently moving melodic line ebbs and flows, creating an almost hypnotic effect that immerses the listener in the warmth and peace of this moving work for young band.
