Catawba Crossing - William G. Harbinson
Named for the beautiful Catawba River, this piece begins with a brilliant fanfare, revealing the principle motive upon which the entire composition is based. Shifting tonalities and colorful scoring are the hallmark of the opening section. This is followed by an expressive con moto section that provides the piece with dramatic contrast. Once the opening theme returns, Catawba Crossing develops into a rousing march in 6/8 time, followed by a return to the opening material, bringing the piece to an exciting conclusion. An impressive choice for contest or festival performance.

Triangle of the Tempest - Alan Lee Silva
Triangle of the Tempest is a fast-moving composition with interesting rhythmic challenges and dynamic color shifts. Starting with syncopated figures over a repeated eight-measure progression, the piece builds in intensity as more sections and layers are added. The second part changes tone and is led by a heroic trumpet melody with a soaring woodwind obligato. The themes intertwine and the material develops into a dramatic conclusion with a final explosive ensemble hit. Action-packed and full of rhythmic drive, this piece is a good choice for contest or festival performance.

Next to Stars and Stripes Forever, this march, universally known as "The March King," is probably the best-known march by John Philip Sousa (1854-1932). From its energetic opening through the memorable 1st strain, the tuneful second and memorable trio, this is a beloved example of march writing at its best. A perfect introduction to the 6/8 march style, this very playable version will be a great warm-up march for contest and festival. Duration: 3'

The Picadore - John Philip Sousa
John Philip Sousa wrote this great march when he was the leader of the Marine band in 1889, and it depicts the experience of a horseman during a bullfight. In a distinctive minor key to start, this is a unique Sousa march. Arranger Andrew Balent has tamed this march down in difficulty without loosing the intent of the original. A nice choice for a warm-up march at contest or festival.

It is a tapestry of sounds and marvelously orchestrated colors, not a tongue-in-cheek presentation. This new work for band will fit nicely as a contrasting piece on a concert, contest, or festival program.

Gryphon - Tyler Arcari
New composer Tyler Arcari depicts the mythical Gryphon in this delightful piece. You will hear the contrasting lighter-than-air sounds of a soaring eagle followed by the more dark and aggressive sounds of the lion. This is a fresh new piece from a fresh new composer who we are very excited to be adding to the Carl Fischer Music catalog. Tyler's different approach to composition is refreshing, and his scoring, melodic vision and harmonic choices are so wonderful. We expect great things from this young man in the years to come. Alert your festival music list committee about this piece and the name Tyler Arcari!
