The Untitled March - John Philip Sousa
NEVER BEFORE PUBLISHED. Written shortly before his death, Sousa's "The Untitled March" was never performed during his lifetime because a page of the original was misplaced until it was located by Sousa researcher Loras Schissel in 1989. Keith Brion & Loras Schissel have restored the missing music and then edited the march to conform to the standard performance practices of that time using Sousa's original copy. Besides being an exceptional march in the Sousa tradition, this edition includes extensive performance notes and the full and fascinating story behind this historic piece. This publication is an official, authorized Sousa edition of John Philip Sousa, Inc., the family corporation.

The Valley of Darkness . . . eerie . . . overgrown . . . unchartered . . . an echo of an era long past.

As several imaginary scenes are portrayed, a sense of dread and foreboding permeates as the natives of the valley detect the presence of trespassers upon their land. When the end of the sojourn looms, the speed and urgency of the adventurers increases, and escape through the narrow crevice at the end of the valley is now within their reach. However, the inhabitants of the Valley of Darkness think otherwise . . .

Edgar Allan Poe - Barry E. Kopetz
Edgar Allan Poe is perhaps most well known for his writings on Gothic topics, darkness, and early forms of science fiction, and he almost single-handedly created the genre we now call the detective story. This work effectively captures the darkness that so poignantly defines Poe, the writer. The slow, brooding introduction captures the dark moods that characterize so much of his writing. The second section envisions Poe as he desperately writes, one step ahead of the poverty that always seemed just one heartbeat away. A chilling portrait of this famous literary figure.
