Festive Dances - Robert Thurston
Robert Thurston's enormously attractive writing for band and his sure command of contemporary harmonic and rhythmic devices give this three movement composition by terrific band and audience appeal. Thurston's fondness for mixed meters will keep players on their toes. The 2nd movement (moderato) in particular has a memorable folk-like lilt and charm. The whole piece is bound together by the use of the motto C-E-C, the initials of the composer's teacher, the late great band writer Charles E. Carter, in whose memory Festive Dances was written. Duration: 7'

Uncle Henry - Howard E. Akers
Uncle Henry was the nickname given to Henry Fillmore around the state of Florida by band directors and band students for all that he did to raise the standard of bands in the state. Howard Akers pays tribute to Henry with this stellar march that was originally published one year After Fillmore's death in 1957. Gary Reeves gives this delightful piece a much-needed facelift in this modern edition so that bands can enjoy this tuneful march for many more years to come.

Kinetic Energy - Larry Clark
Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of constant motion. Larry Clark represents this idea with a near constant 8th-note pulse throughout his supercharged piece. Though the piece ends in B flat major, the main idea is in the Lydian mode on E flat. Kinetic Energy is Clark at his most incisive and the scoring is apt and colorful.

A Jubilant Tribute - Barry E. Kopetz
Commissioned by the Orrville Performing Arts Council, Orrville, Ohio, this work was composed as a 'celebration of life---an exuberant reflection of the joy of one's existence.' True to its theme, this positive, upbeat selection is bound to be one of your band's favorites! Each section of the band has an interesting part to play and the catchy syncopated rhythm used throughout really keeps it 'rolling along.' A sensitive middle section provides an interesting contrast to the first theme. (Grade 3)

Elegy - Melvin L. Shelton
A touching and intense memoriam piece, the mechanics are on the easy side of Grade 4, but the demand for tone quality and control in tenuto passages and long slurred phrases calls for the best of musicianship from any group. The "Adagio e Rubato" tempo indication invites the kind of wonderfully expressive ensemble playing that should probably make up a larger part of band literature than it does today. Over a quiet unifying heartbeat from the timpani, the band explores the emotions felt after a tragic personal loss. A soaring F Horn solo (cued in Trumpet. and Alto Saxophone) leads poignantly toward a gentle Orchestra Bells and Wind Chime ending.
