Inferno in the Lost Pines - Larry Clark
Larry Clark does it again, with a bold new piece for young students, using only the first 6 notes of the Bb scale and two eighth notes on the same pitch as the most difficult rhythm. The piece is meant to depict the struggle that firefighters go through when trying to tame an out of control brush fire. The piece goes right into the main theme without introduction and then moves into a more subdued second theme, in contrast. After a short development of the themes with interplay between the winds and percussion, the piece builds to a strong coda: a great way to showcase your beginning band at a concert or festival.

Old Glory - Les Taylor
Although composed in a traditional march style, Old Glory is much shorter and written with the skills of the beginning band student in mind. Ranges are very limited and rhythms are simple and repetitive. The interlude features the percussion and unison trumpets. There is a short tag based on the familiar strains of America (My Country 'Tis of Thee). Great opener for your spring concert or festival. (1:46)

A lush lyrical section provides for some more interesting harmonies, yet is very approachable by bands at all levels. Use this section to work on balance and musicality with your ensemble. A D.C. al Fine completes the framework of this piece.
