Fanfare And Evocation - John Moss

This striking new work from master composer John Moss uses marvelous band scoring techniques and a distinctive form to achieve a wonderfully effective musical setting. The exciting opening fanfare section ends with a clarinet cadenza which introduces the evocation section. Beautiful sonorities and flowing melodies are heard before the brief return of the fanfare theme and clarinet solo. From there, the work tapers to a quiet and peaceful close. Wonderful writing!

Fanfare And Funk - Oliver Waespi

This work by Swiss composer Oliver Waespi was one of the highlights at the 2006 Eidgenssische Musikfest in Lucerne. The piece opens with a festive fanfare featuring the brass section. The mood changes to a funk passage which develops and grows into a James Brown-like groove. It also includes an ad libitum drum solo. A slow blues lends a calmer feel and the piece culminates with striking interwoven fanfare and funk styles. This work is highly recommended for concert programmes but it can also make a spectacular, unconventional choice for a competition.

Fanfare and Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Adapted from the Mannheim Steamroller CD A Fresh Aire Christmas, this is actually two publications in one! First is a glorious fanfare in the High Renaissance tradition of antiphonal brass choirs echoing one another. Next is a contemporary Mannheim treatment of the familiar carol, complete with a rock groove combining rhythmic and harmonic surprises. Performed individually or as a set, this is a terrific and unique addition to the holiday repertoire for concert bands.

Fanfare and Homage - Richard L. Saucedo

Written for the Kuching Wind Symphony in Malaysia, Fanfare and Homage is a tribute to the work of music educators around the globe. The dynamic opening fanfare section features bold brass statements, short percussion break and a lyric solo for trumpet. A tender and emotional middle section includes short solos for flute, oboe (opt. tenor sax), and clarinet, with expanded harmonies and a beautiful building section. The vibrant fanfare theme returns to cap off this well-crafted work for young players. (This publication includes an optional DroneMap rehearsal aid created by Michael Pote) Dur: ca. 3:50

Fanfare and Hymn for Peace - Marco Somadossi

Fanfare and Hymn of Brotherhood - Jay Bocook

Commissioned by the Gamma Eta chapter of Phi Mu Alpha, at Furman University, Greenville, SC, this impressive work is built around two chorale themes and a recurring fanfare. After the boldly stated opening, a bright allegro developmental section becomes increasingly more intense until a dramatic cadence is reached. At this point, antiphonal brass (3 trumpets, 2 trombones) soar above the ensemble and play a grandiose version of the first chorale. The band re-enters and both ensembles play the climactic ending to the work, in a new key, and with both hymns being heard simultaneously. Marvelous work! (6:00)
