    1812 1/2 (Novelty Item) (Concert Band - Score Only) - Brand, Michael

    Poor Tchaikovsky! First his music is mixed by with Frere Jaques and then it is subjected to all sorts of indignities from the percussion section. There cannot be many pieces in which the conductor shoots the first Horn player... Perhaps there should be more!

    1812 Overture, Themes from (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Tchaikovsky, Peter Ilyich - Vinson, Johnnie

    Here is an excellent adaptation for younger bands of this famous overture by Tchaikovsky. The arrangement opens with the slow chorale-like theme which is found at the beginning of the original overture. From there, the piece builds to the familiar dymanic fast theme and powerful conclusion.

    Overture 1812 - By Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky / arr. Michael Story

    Most musicians dislike the term "watered-down," so we asked Michael Story to present this classic overture with musical integrity and honesty but to simplify the complicated orchestral writing to be playable by a very young band or ensemble. We think you will agree: This arrangement succeeds admirably! (1:55)

    1812 Overture - By Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky / arr. Mark Williams

    This powerful arrangement makes one of Tchaikovsky's most popular and dramatic orchestral works accessible for grade 3 concert bands. The expressive chorale that opens the work has been reworked for brass and bass clarinet, and its dramatic restatement near the end of the piece has been transposed down a perfect fourth so your trumpets will ring through right to the end. Mark Williams also offers some creative alternatives to achieve the cannon sounds. Close your next concert with this all-time classic!

    Defenders Day

    The march Defenders Day is named for the legal holiday in Maryland which commemorates the successful defense of the city of Baltimore on September 12, 1814 from an invading British force during the War of 1812. This event would lead to the writing of the United States of America's national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner." The form and style follow the standard American march format and is perfect for festival performance.
