Viva Espania - Larry Neeck
A delightful combination of lyrical themes with rhythmic exuberance and folk-like melodies. "Viva Espania" is based on themes by two 19th-century Spanish composers. The opening theme is from "Recuerdos de la Alhambra" by Francisco Tarrega. That piece is a traditional Spanish waltz and was inspired by the famous Alhambra Castle in Grenada. The second theme is by Isaac Albeniz from a suite of music for the piano, "Songs of Spain", entitled "Leyenda". This section, while still in 3/4 has a fiery exuberance much like one would expect from a flamenco guitarist, yet it's very playable by young players. Authentic Spanish music that's a terrific addition to any concert performance!

Symphonic Celebration and Dance - R. Foster
A composition student of the late J. Clifton Williams, Robert Foster composed this work for symphonic band as a tribute to Mr. Williams. The work begins with a statement of the primary theme as a fanfare. The theme recurs later in the work in the form of a chorale, and returns even later in the energetic and rhythmic dance section. A recapitulation of the chorale follows, and the work concludes with a brilliant fanfare. This is a unique musical work and an ideal contest selection.

The Great Land Run - Anderson
An exciting journey through the old west, "The Great Land Run" paints an exhilarating picture of 1889 Oklahoma. A fanfare-like main theme at the beginning is followed by the night around the campfire. As the settlers rest, a gentle storm washes over them bringing forth the questions of what tomorrow may bring. As morning rises, they head back on their way to stake their plot of land and new life. A powerful recap of the main theme drives this piece to an exciting end. With multiple opportunities for solos in the flute, clarinet, oboe, and trumpet, this piece will offer a fun, yet challenging experience for any concert band! Highly recommended!

Musicians and audience members of all ages will be assuredly affected by the spirit and essence of this extraordinary composition.
