Majestic Solemnity - Menno Bosgra
For this impressive opening work by Menno Bosgra, the composer uses a kind of brass band theme which is alternated with a solemn chorale. Both themes are orchestrated differently and each instrumental group takes turns playing. This makes the piece extremely colourful. At the end, both themes are combined with each other. This is a dynamic opening work for your concerts!

Flight - Gregory B. Rudgers
This is a lovely, introspective piece dedicated to the loss of a dear person. Unlike many pieces that have come out of sorrow, this piece is uplifting. At first, you will hear lush, lyrical lines that recall the memories of the one lost, but then the piece soars with a lilting 3/4 time feel that brings this heartfelt selection to a dramatic conclusion.

This will make you band sound wonderful for concert or contest.
