£71.50Predator - Robert E. Foster
Predators are things that prey on others for their existence and come in a variety of forms, both real and imaginary. This predator is one of the scariest of all, that of the imaginary kind, and the music adds to its fearsome presence. The suspenseful sounds are dark and sinister, leading our imaginations to create a menacing image far scarier than any that exist in real life. The music evokes images of this fearsome creature as he prowls an imaginary landscape, striking fear into listeners as he searches for his next victim!

£71.50The Haunted Carousel - Joseph Eidson
The Haunted Carousel is a slightly off-kilter waltz that introduces young players to the concept of meter changes without being overly complex. Imagine a circus that only comes to life at midnight, where tents glow in the darkness while ghostly figures appear and disappear. Haunting music comes from a carousel that turns with faint images on the dusty seats, breaking the eerie silence of the night. As the piece ends, the coda slowly fades out with the rising sun and the circus fades like a distant dream.

Echoes of the Morning Trumpet is based on a hymn tune entitled Morning Trumpet by B.F. White that was first published in The Sacred Harp Hymn Book of 1844, a book that was originally printed in shaped notes.

This piece features a trumpet solo in the opening, accompanied by the singing of the members of the ensemble. Various treatments of the hymn that highlight the ensemble colors follow before the magnificent close.

£71.50Edgar Allan Poe - Barry E. Kopetz
Edgar Allan Poe is perhaps most well known for his writings on Gothic topics, darkness, and early forms of science fiction, and he almost single-handedly created the genre we now call the detective story. This work effectively captures the darkness that so poignantly defines Poe, the writer. The slow, brooding introduction captures the dark moods that characterize so much of his writing. The second section envisions Poe as he desperately writes, one step ahead of the poverty that always seemed just one heartbeat away. A chilling portrait of this famous literary figure.
