Everest - Top Of The World - Elliot Del Borgo
A musical tribute to the tallest mountain on the earth, this brilliant mono-thematic work has striking bell-like effects in the brass and makes superb use of a large percussion section. Contrasts in texture and articulation are numerous and the music is alternately bold, aggressive and haunting. This is another fine selection that can be considered for contest and festival use.

The Legend of Taum Sauk - Larry Clark
A strong new concert/contest piece written to depict the legend of Taum Sauk mountain in central Missouri. It is a classic Romeo and Juliet saga that involves two different tribes of Native Americans. Larry Clark works to bring out the drama of this story through his music. It is at first fast-paced and pulsing, with a 6/8 groove followed by a love song built on the same musical material, then leading back to the uptempo music for a conclusion. A solid work for young band that can introduce 6/8 time and has cross-curricular possibilities.

Arizona Sunset - Stephen Bulla
This gentle, pastorale-style composition portrays the pastel colours of the Arizona desert. It was at dusk that the composer's inspiration for the piece came, as the quiet atmosphere and distant mountain ranges created a sense of peace and tranquillity. In this piece's middle section you may sense the calm, slow-riding cowhand returning to the ranch after a long day's work

First Light - Steven Bryant
The title First Light refers to the arrival of dawn - specifically the composer's experience of dawn in the mountains surrounding Lake Garda in northern Italy. There, the light of the sun arrives in distinct stages: the night sky begins to brighten quite early, though the sun remains hidden behind the mountains for several hours. Abruptly, the first direct ray of sunlight crests the mountaintop, bringing with it intense, palpable heat. The town below, nestled in the narrow space between the water's edge and the steep mountain slope, remains in darkness for a while longer, until the sun ultimately sends light cascading down the mountainside, illuminating everything. (Grade 5) Dur: 8:30
