Goddess of Fire
A magnificent programmatic work for symphonic band that is an offering to Pele, the Goddess of Hawaii's volcanoes. The work opens with primordial, mysterious sounds representing the foreboding volcanoes of Hawaii. We are then introduced to Pele as a tall, beautiful young woman. This is one of the forms she can take and it represents her powers of creation and beauty. This gives way to the active and destructive Pele, often taking the form of an old woman, wrinkled and bent with age. The following lyrical section of the piece is the full statement of Pele's theme of creation and beauty. As this theme settles, we begin to hear the ground pop and crack letting us know that new lava is beginning to bubble and flow. Suddenly and violently, one of her volcanoes erupts, creating massive chaos and destruction. After the eruption subsides, Pele's theme of creation and beauty returns again. A wonderful addition to any concert or festival performance by mature bands. Exceptional in every respect!

Festival Fanfare and March - Chris Bernotas
From the brilliant opening fanfare to the noble march, this little masterwork sounds more like an adventure movie score than a young band piece. This is a creative and spirited work for introducing students to 6/8 meter. Sounding a lot harder than it really is, this is a very likeable piece for opening a concert, or music festival.

Conquest - Sandy Feldstein
A true "contest" style piece for the beginning band that uses limited note and rhythm resources, but is very creatively written. Your youngest students will feel like they are playing serious music, as the piece is bold, aggressive and sounds more difficult than it plays. This is the type of exceptional music you have come to expect from two of the most popular composers of beginning band music. This piece is correlated to The Yamaha Advantage band method book 1, but can be used with any band program of study.

Ruminations - Sean O'Loughlin
Lush, "reflective," and "pensive" best describe this emotional piece by composer Sean O'Loughlin. Ruminations is chock-full of opportunities for the young band to play expressively and to learn to stretch and pull a phrase. Playing slow, lyrical music is the best way to improve these skills and this year, this is the piece with which to do it.
