Legions - John Cacavas
Legions is inspired by what a march might have sounded like in the days of the Roman Empire. It captures the excitement of this era of spectacle, and glory is evident from the opening percussion ostinato to the fanfare-like brass passages.

£59.95Basses Are Aces - Joseph Compello
Designed by a master offeriting for this grade level, Bases Are Aces was written to encourage the low brass and woodwind players, while still being fun for the whole band to play. A great recruitment piece, it will motivate the frequently overlooked members of the low instrument contingent, who anchor the band. Some simple syncopations, such as a spoken line by the other members of the band ("How low can you go?") and a brief, repeated, "cadenza," add to the fun of this clever piece. Duration: 3' 10"

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.

Bold and decisive writing characterizes this strong piece from the pen of Sean O'Loughlin. He makes striking and effective use of the low brass and percussion, but the woodwinds are also given a lovely, lyrical idea in the contrasting middle section. The overall effect offerban Invasion, however, is one of high energy and purpose.

Leviathan - Peter Terry
At times dark and sinister and at others bold and dynamic, Leviathan takes the listener on a journey along with the mythical sea monster that is found in many books and mythology. Peter Terry has crafted a bold new contest work that students will love, with all of the angular rhythms and modern sounds. This piece is at the lower end of the difficulty level and contains many instances of unison low brass that can be helpful for a band with lesser forces in this area of the band.
