Diversion - Bernhard Heiden
Composed while Bernhard Heiden served as Assistant Bandmaster for the 445th US Army band during World War II, this first-ever print edition has been carefully edited and adapted with modern instrumentation. The influence of the composer's mentor, Paul Hindemith is evident in the tonal yet nondiatonic harmonies, paired with Heiden's own light and tuneful melodic writing. (Grade 4) Dur: 7:00

A Fugal Overture (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Holst, Gustav - Noble, Paul
Gustav Holst began composition of A Fugal Overture in 1922, completing the full score in January 1923. Despite its name, the overture is not strictly fugal. It belongs to the era of neo-classicism, but apparently by coincidence, for Holst had not yet heard some of the Stravinsky and Hindemith works which set this fashion. The fugal subject is full of spiky crossrhythms - Holst grouped the eighth notes (quavers) of his 4/4 into a pattern of 3 + 3 + 2, thus giving a bar of three unequal beats. The piece is intense and exciting, and should make an important addition to the repertoire of the Concert Band.
