Brass Ensemble - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.834019 Composed by Franz Schubert. Arranged by BRIAN W. COPPING. Romantic Period. Score and parts. 18 pages. EMK Music #6074549. Published by EMK Music (A0.834019). During his short lifetime Schubert composed prolifically in many genres.  His original composition of Marche Militaire was for 'four hands' or two Pianos, and all arrangements, including this one, usually present only the first part of the first of three marches that comprise the complete work (Trois Marches Militaire, Op.51).  Among the devices used by Schubert is clever decoration of the opening and closing unison phrases which are suggestive of a bugle call.

Brass Ensemble - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.808646 Composed by Léo Delibes (1836-1891). Arranged by F. Leslie Smith. Concert,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 50 pages. Sweetwater Brass Press #516831. Published by Sweetwater Brass Press (A0.808646).    Among the most noteworthy works by Clément Philibert Léo Delibes are two ballets, Coppélia (1870) and Sylvia (1876). Delibes based the latter on a Aminta, a play written by Torquato Tasso three centuries earlier, and it is populated by characters such as Eros, Diana, Orion, as well as Aminta and, of course, Sylvia. The third act opens in the forest with a celebration of the wine vintage, the Grand cortège de Bacchus (March and Procession of Bacchus). The March is exciting and brassy (enough so that the 1982-1986 television series, Knight Rider, used it for a musical theme!). The Procession is more song-like but ends with a big restatement of the March.    Completed in 2012, this arrangement runs about 6 minutes, 50 seconds. The arranger, Les Smith, will be happy to provide substitute parts (for example, treble clef baritone for trombone) at no charge; contact him directly at lessmith61@bellsouth.net.

Brass Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.954885 Composed by Charles Francois Gounod. Arranged by Rick Rangno. Film/TV,Halloween,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 43 pages. Rick Rangno #4366180. Published by Rick Rangno (A0.954885). Marche Funebre d'un Marionette (Funeral March of a Marionette) was originally written for solo piano in 1872 and orchestrated in 1879, and is perhaps best known as the theme music for the television program Alfred Hitchcock Presents. This would be a welcome addition to add to a Hallowe'en program or any concert of a popular nature. If time is short many of the repeated sections can be played once only. .

Brass Ensemble - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.808691 Composed by James Johnston Stewart and Sergei Prokofiev. Arranged by F. Leslie Smith. Contemporary. Score and parts. 18 pages. Sweetwater Brass Press #4295617. Published by Sweetwater Brass Press (A0.808691).     Sergei Prokofiev’s comic opera, The Love for Three Oranges, Op. 33, was first produced in Chicago’s Auditorium Theatre in 1921. Prokofiev subsequently composed a concert suite from six of the opera’s selections. Of these, the March is probably best known. It was adopted as the theme song for a popular radio series, The FBI in Peace and War, which ran on CBS 1944-1958. Through its use on the program, listeners became familiar with the music and were so impressed that it was recorded and published independently as The FBI March. Because of its bold, driving and rhythmic nature, the March is well suited for a brass group, and makes for an exciting experience for both musicians and audience. This arrangement, written for brass quintet using trumpets pitched in C, was completed in 2012 and runs about 1 minute, 38 seconds. (A Bb-trumpets version is also available.)     The arranger, Les Smith, can be reached at lessmith@ufl.edu.

Published by TLM Music Publishing (A0.990294). This piece utilizes twelve-tone technique and is a march in rondo form that is actually a palindrome. All of the material after measure 45 is everything that has been played up to that point, but in complete reverse, albeit a half step removed, including all inverted iterations of the original tone row. Challenging little piece!

Brass Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.811155 Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Jim Tempest. Classical,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 48 pages. Gordon Cherry #5755591. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.811155). Beethoven wrote five military marches for wind band and they are referred to being works without opus numbers or WoO. He was well acquainted with marches and wind instrumentation. His marches fell out of favor after a while as the instruments called for became antiquated (Piccolo and Flute in F, etc.). With today's arrangements for modern instruments these works are now being performed more often. These Two Marches for Military Band arranged by Jim Tempest were written in 1809-1810 for a military review and are a great example of the style of the day: a simple harmonic style, 2 or 4 bar phrases with lots of dotted notes and snappy rhythms. The instrumentation is for a 14-part Brass Ensemble and Percussion: Piccolo Trumpet in B-flat, 3 Trumpets in B-flat, Flugelhorn, 3 Horns, 3 Trombones, 2 Euphoniums, Tuba, Bass Drum, Snare Drum and Cymbals. They are appropriate for moderately advanced performers and are about 3 minutes in length each.

Published by Roman Benedict (A0.931069). This march, in C minor, was originally written for a quartet of flatt trumpets, which could play notes outside of the harmonic series and thus in a minor key. Here it has been adapted for a modern brass ensemble, with marching drum. Following the march is the canzona, also in C minor. A beautiful and sombre ensemble work, good for ceremonies and concert performance. .

Sweetwater Brass Press #439497. Published by Sweetwater Brass Press (A0.808621). Brilliant and exciting, this arrangement shows off the brass quintet at its best. Delibes’ opening Marche for the Cortege De Bacchus from Act 3 of his Sylvia ballet suite is always a crowd pleaser, and this version makes it seem as though the piece was composed specifically for five brass instruments. Completed in 2012, this arrangement runs about 2 minutes, 4 seconds. The arranger, Les Smith, can be reached at lessmith@ufl.edu.
