This enjoyable rock-styled piece makes much of a simple syncopated figure and will help to instill good counting habits in a young band. The percussion parts are musically active, but the rest of the band uses only the first 6 notes that are taught to beginners. The resulting piece is great fun to play but easy to prepare. Duration: 2'15"

Northern Lights - Alan Lee Silva
Featuring a lovely and appropriate use of mallet percussion instruments, especially bells and other delicate members of the percussion section, Northern Lights is evocative, melodically distinguished and cleverly scored to help a young band sound its best. The contrast between the natural minor of the woodwind melody at the beginning and the grander, major mode brass theme introduced later is nicely maintained throughout this very effective piece.
