Calliope - Dominique Lemaître

Callisto - Joseph Compello

A winning and moderately easy concert piece that takes its name from one of the moons of Jupiter, Callisto is a vibrantly scored set of two variations on a fragment of a theme from the Jupiter movement of Gustav Holst's orchestral suite, The Planets. The characteristic flatted-7th of much English folk music is retained in both the quick opening section and the slow, reflective variation that forms the B section of this clever and appealing overture-style piece.

Callisto - Timothy Johnson

A dark and expansive opening leads to the powerful main theme as we explore the moon of a distant planet. An assortment of colorful percussion instruments helps evoke the mysterious second-largest moon of Jupiter. It's a powerful work that is easily within the grasp of young bands. This will be a great contrast piece on your concert. This provides a great cross-curricular tie-in with science, specifically the study of Galileo. (Grade 1/2)

Calots Verts, Batterie Fanfare - Laurent Delbecq

Calvary - Rodney Paul

Calvary Commandery - Herbert L. Clarke

Calypso - Koen de Wolf

Calypso la Rondo - Elliot Del Borgo

The simple melody and harmony creates a background for your percussionists to show off on a variety of instruments. What makes this piece so unique is that the wind parts are involved, serving a more important role than accompaniment. A great way to feature percussion while providing plenty of teaching opportunities for the winds as well.

Calypso Bay - Loest

A light-natured concert work with a light Latin feel that can be the hit of your next concert. Appealing melodies and delightful rhythms give this piece a sparkle that just can't be denied. Excellent program material that your students and audiences will love!

In this fresh twist on the old classic "Jingle Bells," your beginning band students are sure to have fun as the Latin rhythms and percussion instruments combine with the traditional melody. Todd Phillips seamlessly weaves familiar Latin themes with "Jingle Bells" to create a unique holiday arrangement. This arrangement will work well with students who have had two semesters of band.

A welcome change of pace for your next winter concert; "Calypso Bells" is the perfect opportunity to combine the warmth of the Latin sound with the coolness of "Jingle Bells."
