£54.99As The Clock Ticks - Barry E. Kopetz
As the Clock Ticks is a musical illustration of several clocks ticking simultaneously. Throughout the piece, the melody aligns with the regular pulse provided by the percussion section, and the woodblock, guiro, triangle and bells provide the clock-like pulse.

£71.50In The Forest Deep - Barry E. Kopetz
A musical depiction of the sense of mystery and wonder that one experiences while walking deep within the forest. The sky is blocked out by the thickness of the foliage and every shadow seems to have an ominous quality. In short, the forest seems to be alive with a somewhat dark, reserved personality. Silence seems more sinister as every little sound seems to be meaningful and important. The longer one stays, the faster one walks so as to not prolong ones presence "in the forest deep..."

Much of the melodic material for the piece is taken from the French Canadian folksong, Weaving in the United States.

£104.50Pet Of The Petticoats - John Philip Sousa
When Sousa became the fourteenth leader of the United States Marine Band he immediately began to add his own works to the bands repertoire, including Pet of the Petticoats March. This delightful and interesting march is in a different form than that of Sousas later marches, having no introduction, as it begins right with the first strain. Originally written for a stage play of the same name, Pet of the Petticoats March provides a musical window into another era in a simpler, less complex America.

£54.99Chase Through The Midnight Forest - Darren W. Jenkins
Chase Through the Midnight Forest was written for the 2010 Chisholm Trail Junior High Area 5th Grade Band (which includes the bands from Arbor Creek, Madison Place, and Sunnyside Elementary Schools) in Olathe, Kansas. The piece is meant to create the suspense of a harrowing chase and pursuit through a deep, dark, and eerie forest at midnight, never quite sure who or what might be close behind. Friend or foe... the only thing that is for sure is that the chase is on... and stopping to look behind you could be the biggest mistake you ever make...

£82.50Elegy For The U.S.S. Arizona - Larry MacTaggart
Elegy is a tribute to the lasting legacy of the members of the U.S.S. Arizona Band, entombed with over 1,100 other sailors in the sunken wreckage of the Arizona. A solemn snare drum begins and ends the piece, and the familiar strains of Eternal Father Strong to Save are used to create a moving tribute to all veterans who have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

£82.50The Legend Of Greensleeves - John Prescott
The well-known song Greensleeves was written in 15th century England, quite possibly by King Henry VIII himself. The wistful quality of this legend is captured here by the use of lush harmonies and a rhythmic ostinato that gets transferred to different colors within the ensemble. With a hauntingly beautiful ending, this unique arrangement will be the highlight of programs at Christmas and throughout the year as well.
