Your band will enjoy this concert march with the majestic march style at the beginning, a slightly slower and legato middle, and a grand finale at the end. The middle section features the brass section with either solos or by sections. The upper woodwinds have a chance to play a trill which leads into the finale and the dotted eighths and sixteenth notes give it a really precise feeling of a steady march tempo. If you don't have the full instrumentation, parts are doubled so you can pick what you need to fill in. Enjoy. .

( Òran Sìth na Gàidhlig ) Truly a gorgeous melody with wonderful harmonies that will let your musicians shine! Ranges, key and technical aspects are just enough to help a younger band grow but this piece has room for the most mature sounding older band to sculpt and add the emotion the music demands. Starting with a solo flute and building into a large and warm ensemble sound allows all sections to add to the progression. The perfect piece to grab the hearts of your audience!

O Come, O Come, Immanuel is a Christian hymn for Advent. While it is most commonly known by that English title, it is in fact a translation of the original Latin - Veni, Veni, Emmanuel.  This setting for young bands captures the phrasing form as well as the modal feeling of the work. It has been set to a light Latin background giving the arrangement a solid harmonic and melodic feeling. .

     Composed in honor of women's history month, First Symphony for Beginning Band is a unique piece that depicts four important women throughout our history. Movement 1 depicts the harrowing tale of Sojourner Truth's escape from slavery. She went on to become one of the most influential abolitionists in history- both an icon for racial justice and women's rights.The second movement depicts the innocence of a young Malala, who stood up against the Taliban's exclusion of women's rights to education. At the age of 15, she was shot in the head three times on a school bus as she was on her way home. Miraculously, she survived and went on to win a Nobel Peace Prize (she is the youngest person to ever earn this prestigious award. Still alive today, Malala is currently studying at Oxford and runs the Malala Fund, which advocates for quality education for all girls.

     Movement 3 captures the energy, cunning and adventurous nature of Amelia Earhart. She was the first woman to fly the Atlantic, and her disappearance is one of the greatest mysteries of our time. Rehearsal D represents her flight over the open seas and Rehearsal E depicts the unresolved tragedy of her disappearance. Finally, the 4th movement honors the only person to win Nobel Prizes in two separate sciences, Marie Curie. Her scientific, methodical approach to exploration and discovery are depicted here via the fragmented eighth note motifs and methodical percussion writing.

     I hope your students will enjoy the catchy hooks and melodies, and I hope that this piece can serve as a valuable reminder of the infinite capacity of the human spirit. Most importantly, may we continue to strive to make this world a better place for all!

Onward,
Aaron Fonzi.

Composed by Traditional. Arranged by John McAllister. Contemporary,Contest,Festival,Folk,Multicultural,Spiritual,World. 55 pages. John McAllister #912325. Published by John McAllister (A0.1324133).

Down to the River is a traditional American spiritual deeply rooted in the African-American religious tradition. In this arrangement for young concert band, the music is taken on a journey through multiple settings, evoking a sense of Americana throughout.

The piece commences with melodic and harmonic elements that delicately capture the beauty of a calmly flowing river. This tranquil texture becomes a recurring motif, weaving its way through various sections of the ensemble. As the arrangement unfolds, listeners are taken through different treatments of the main melodic line, each iteration offering a new perspective on the source material.

A noteworthy moment arises in the third setting of the main theme, where the melodic line is deconstructed, giving rise to a completely new theme. This inventive twist adds a layer of intrigue and creativity, demonstrating the transformative potential of musical expression. The deconstructed theme gradually reassembles, leading the ensemble to a triumphant climax.

Throughout the arrangement, young musicians are given the opportunity to explore expressive playing, dynamic contrasts, and collaborative interplay. The piece serves not only as a musical exploration but also as an educational experience, encouraging the development of ensemble cohesion and individual musicianship.

OTHER ASSOCIATED SERIES: LIMITED OR FULL BAND SERIES

WHAT IS THE LIMITED OR FULL BAND SERIES FROM C.DURIGG MUSIC?

Do you have intermediate or advanced students in a very small band program? Are your students ready for more intermediate or advanced band repertoire, yet the band’s limited instrumentation holds them back?

My Limited or Full series is geared toward the success of small bands with limited instrumentation. These pieces aim at giving small bands more advanced music within the framework of a young band arrangement. If you like the music, these pieces also sound great with a larger full instrumentation.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, soulful is defined as full of or expressing feeling or emotion. In a soulful manner, the piece begins with the familiar song When Peace Like a River. This soulful hymn insists on finding peace, regardless of the world’s sorrows. The music then moves to a majestic trumpet processional. Entitled Soulful Peace, this tune honors those who made it possible for us to feel peace: parents, caregivers, family members, mentors, teachers, friends, and veterans who have served our country. Whether we feel the soulful melody in honor of them or in their memory, they remain an important part of our peace. After shifting to a calming woodwind verse, the processional then crescendos to a very emotive, full band verse. After the climax, the processional settles and gives way to a delicate chorus of It is Well With My Soul. The hymn tune begins delicately in the flutes, yet the brass echo the stately processional. The hymn majestically builds toward its own climax, accompanied by a trumpet fanfare. This triumphant piece reminds us that it can indeed be Well With My Soul!.
