The Music Makers - James Curnow
What a terrific way to kick off a combined chorus, band and even orchestra concert! THE MUSIC-MAKERS, based on O'Shaughnessy's poem by the same name, by James Curnow works just as well as a closer, pulling your groups together for an all-inclusive grand finale. The rhythmic exuberance from measure number one sets up the inspiring choral entrance and the lovely andante espressivo middle theme contrasts delightfully. Careful scoring ensures successful balance as you thrill the audience with a panoply of rich and colorful sound. Spectacular! (Also works for Orchestra alone, Band with String Section or Full Band and Orchestra combined)

Music Shall Live - James Curnow
Perfect for a combined Choral/Band concert as an opener, closer or anywhere in between. This medley of familiar tunes is tied together by the recurring concept that MUSIC SHALL LIVE. A swingin' WADE IN THE WATER, a soulful NOBODY KNOWS THE TROUBLE I'VE SEEN, and an inspiring BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC make it a crowd pleaser. The unison choral part makes sure the chorus can come through loud and clear and the performance can be prepared without a great deal of combined rehearsal time. Big, bold and powerful! (String parts and Beginning Band (simplified) parts are also available for large, All-City Band, Orchestra and Chorus performances)

When Time Will Be No More - James Curnow
This work was commissioned in memory of Peter J. Swanson, a trumpet and cornet player who tragically died at the tender age of fourteen. Peter's favorite gospel song, Just a Closer Walk with Thee, has been used as the basis for this piece of contrasts which takes the listener through many styles and moods. The spiritual character of the original song resounds gloriously in When Time Will Be No More.

Three Holiday Scenes - Timothy Johnson
An imaginative look at a good old-fashioned Christmas! From aromas of family favorites cooking in the kitchen, to the images of decorated trees, snow scenes, and caroling - all are a part of that wonderful celebration.Rather than just taking the same old Public Domain Christmas carols for one more go 'round, Timothy Johnson has composed the majority of THREE HOLIDAY SCENES using fresh and original melodies. The first scene opens with fragments of "Oh Tannenbaum" but quickly moves into a beautiful Christmas waltz. An "effets de neige," or "Snowfall effect," carries the luscious second and contrasting scene. In the 3rd and final scene, the phrases from well-known carols mergewith one another, creating the effect of "caroling." Finally, melodies serve as counterpoint for one another and bring this delightful vignette to a close. This piece presents an excellent opportunity to work with the Art department in creating drawings and paintings of holiday images. Pull your chair a little closer to the fireplace and sit back for a winsome holiday treat!

The Monument March - David W. Moore
A bright and colorful closer, THE MONUMENT MARCH gives each section of the band an important role to play. The 6/8 meter serves as a nice contrast if your concert is primarily duple-meter based. Nearly every imaginable 6/8 rhythm (without using 16th notes) is included somewhere in this piece, so bands that have had a LOT of experience at playing in 6/8 will enjoy rehearsals as they reinforce those important 6/8 reading skills.A skill-builder for advancing groups!

The fresh timbres and exhilarating melodies will add zest to your next concert whether you choose to program it as your closer or at any other time in the concert. The vitality is contagious!
