Come the Brave (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wagner, Douglas E.

Inspired by demonstrated courage, this original work is intended as a confidence-building piece for a young ensemble's first Spring concert. It serves as a perfect gateway into articulation and varying dynamics: the three most commonly occurring articulation marks (staccato, accent, and tenuto) have been included, as have the middle three dynamic markings (mezzo piano, mezzo forte, and forte) building and declining in intensity. These musical concepts can be experienced individually and within the ensemble. A bold musical statement!

Come, Thou Redeemer of the Earth (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Noble & Willcocks

Come, Thou Redeemer of the Earth is an Advent hymn with roots in a Latin hymn attributed to St. Ambrose of Milan (340 - 397), 'Veni Redemptor gentium.' It was translated into English by John Mason Neale in the middle of the nineteenth century and set to music from another old Latin hymn, 'Puer nobis nascitur' in the 17th century by Michael Praetorius (1571 - 1621). This arrangement represents one in the Series of Band Arrangements compatible with David Willcocks' Carols for Choirs. With eight verses (two of which may be omitted), it offers versatility in scoring, allowing the conductor to select the instrumental grouping for accompaniment as desired.

Comedy Overture (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Ireland, John - Steadman-Allen, Ray

A slow introduction gives way to the "chirpy" theme which is developed, inverted, and accents displaced across the bar line to give a 3/2 feel against the written meter. Restlessness leads to a tranquillo presented by the flute and clarinet, weaving a flowing counterpoint around the melody until the original slow introduction returns. A triumphant recapitulation of the main theme brings this wonderful piece to an end.
