The Road to Chancellorsville - Bryan Kidd
This is one to get excited about! In the style of a "patrol" march, THE ROAD TO CHANCELLORSVILLE takes us back to that pivotal point in history, the American Civil War. The Battle of Chancellorsville is regarded as Confederate General Robert E. Lee's most brilliant victory, but the cost was so high that the Secessionist forces never really recovered. They were forced to surrender less than two years later.Opening with light percussion and just two piccolos (substitute two flutes if necessary) this bright and easy march builds relentlessly from beginning to end. March into history with THE ROAD TO CHANCELLORSVILLE.

Andante from the Surprise Symphony - Franz Joseph Haydn
"He alone has the secret of making me smile, and touching me to the bottom of my soul," said Mozart about "Papa" Haydn and his music. The "Surprise" Symphony (No.94), incidentally written during the final year of Mozart's short life, has become one of Haydn's most memorable works.Since this symphony was written during the zenith of the Classical period, Timothy Johnson's skillful arrangement gives you a perfect opportunity to teach your young band "lightness" and control as essentials of Classical style playing. You can introduce the concept of making the staccato notes "separated" instead of just "short" in order to best approximate the sound of the times. It's a naturalselection for your next festival or concert! Why not give your young band a chance to meet "Papa" Haydn through this charming arrangement?
