Dragonfire - Paul Lavender

Explorer Level (correlates with Book 1, p. 11) Dark and sinister are not words normally associated with music for beginning bands. However, this well-written Paul Lavender original provides powerful and dramatic sounds even atthis very easy level. With nothing faster than a quarter note (8th notes in percussion), your players will be eager to tackle this one!

Dramatic Overture (US Air Force 80th Anniv.) - James Barnes

Dramatic Overture is a lively, celebratory piece commissioned to mark the 80th anniversary of the band. It begins with a stark, powerful introduction of the main theme by the trombones and percussion, soon joined by the other brass before the music moves into a dance-like allegro section. Dramatic brass statements, scampering woodwinds and long, soaring melodies dominate this allegro section until the band slows once again, to present a dramatic fanfare based on the basic intervals of the opening theme. The work then ends with a flashy, energetic coda.
