ROSEBUD for Flugelhorn solo with big band-  The name ROSEBUD, of course, is the name of Charles Foster Kane’s beloved sled in the film CITIZEN KANE.  There is a sense of nostalgia offered in the piece which is a solo for Flugelhorn with big band.  The Flugelhorn soloist should be at the front of the band on microphone for the performance.  The work is not overly difficult and could be performed by a high school ensemble without difficulty.  It features a long flowing melodic line which is treated to both small ensemble and full tutti during the piece.  Also, there is a section featuring an echo (doppelganger) effect for Alto Sax and Trumpet.  There are no doubles except for the 2nd Trumpet which plays the Flugelhorn part.  An optional Tuba and Vibraphone part can be used.  Lead Tpt Bb5.

A moving, expressive ballad with folklike qualities for big band, featuring trombone. Written as a tone poem honoring the victims of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the piece also has moments for piano, 1st alto, and guitar. The piece starts softly, with piano and first alto playing in duet as the rest of the band slowly enters. As the trombone states the theme and then improvises, the piece crescendos into a massive, Kenton-esque release before winding back down towards an unresolved, tense, final chord, reminding listeners that the threat of war still looms over humanity.
