A Hymn for Band - Hugh M. Stuart

This gem from 1985 has steadily become one of the classic repertoire pieces for young bands. Even though it is heavily cross-cued making it suitable for smaller bands, this beautiful work is rich in melodic content, variedscoring, and marvelous counterlines and harmonies. An effective performance vehicle that also teaches legato style and musical sensitivity. Dur: 4:00 (Grade 3)

A Hymn For The Lost And Living - Eric Ewazen

A Hymn Of Remembrance - Todd Phillips

Throughout history events have occurred personally, locally, nationally, and worldly that inspire people to stop a moment and remember those affected. May this hymn evoke a sense of peace as those people and events are remembered.

A Hymn To New England - John Williams

Written in 1987 as the accompaniment to New England Time Capsule, an Omnimax travelogue, and recently recorded by the Boston Pops, this three minute concert work adapts wonderfully for band. With true Williams craftmanship, it features brassy fanfares and a rich, sonorous hymn, all based on the same melodic intervals. John Williams' brilliant orchestration is successfully captured, making this a superb concert opener for bands.

A Jazz Flavour - Afonso Alves

This is a very good combination of jazzy melodies and rhythms. Starting with some quartet solo work, the first movement introduces the theme that gradually gets more powerful. Presented by the woodwinds, a beautiful melody in slow rock dominates the whole second movement. The third movement is an explosion of rhythm and emotion powered by the brass section.
