The Pyramids

Highly descriptive contest music in two movements. "Entrance of the Gods'' is a study in contrasts with bold, powerful tutti phrases followed by soft, lyrical woodwinds and low brass passages. "Tribal Dance'' features many rhythmic woodwind lines accented by sharp brass accents and a variety of percussion sounds.

As the world mourns the passing of Aretha Franklin, we celebrate the enduring legacy of her songs and persona. This powerful medley for the concert stage includes the hits Respect, (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman, and Think.

A distinctive and exciting band work for mature bands that is quite contemporary in nature and will make an outstanding choice for contest or concert performances. The inspirational slower section includes short solo spots for flute, piccolo, F horn, alto sax and trumpet. VERY NICE!

The Quest (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hazo, Samuel R.

Younger bands are showcased to their full potential with this rewarding composition with intriguing minor and major harmonies and interesting suspensions. Each performer is challenged to test the limit of his/her developing range while having the comfort of playing scale-like patterns and unison rhythms with the full ensemble. Simple percussion, including glockenspiel and timpani, provide solid support - plus style and panache!Duration: 4:45

The Quest (Symphony No. 3, 'Don Quixote,' Mvt. I)

At long last, Robert W. Smith gives us another major work based upon classic literature. Symphony No. 3 Don Quixote musically portrays the classic tale of the errant knight, his trusty yet bumbling squire and their adventures in the name of chivalry. The Quest, the first of four movements, is distinctly Spanish in flavor. Using a blend of classic and contemporary techniques, the composer weaves together a sonic tale of the gentleman of La Mancha who takes up his lance and sword to defend those that are helpless and destroy those that are evil. Captivating, musical and full of vivid imagery, Symphony No. 3 "Don Quixote" will be a performance that is memorable for performer and audience alike.

The Quest for Victory Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)

The Quest for Victory sets to music the adventures of a superhero who is locked in an eternal struggle against the forces of evil. The piece begins with the statement of the superhero's theme. We then hear such emotions as jealousy, resentment and hatred, and witness a fierce battle but again and again--and with a happy ending--the majestic hero's theme sounds. As colourful and exciting as a comic book movie! 09:10
