This is nice! With a bold opening theme reminiscent of the American "Wild West," this spirited yet easy overture by Ed Huckeby will present your young band in a most positive light either in concert or at contest!

Based on the Appalachian folk tune Flow Gently, Sweet Afton, this work is full of subtle beauty. Phrasing is an important aspect of the piece, and is brought out by lyrical solos and lush chord progressions. It's a lovely ballad for contest.

Be sure to consider this very creative work when choosing concert literature. As the title implies, the use of layered lines of contrasting rhythms creates a fascinating work that's both fresh and appealing.

Here's a fresh approach to one of the standards in band literature, great for that patriotic number for contest or as a warm-up march for contest.

Limited ranges and minimal technical requirements make this one a great choice for your young band.

Two beloved folk songs combine here, America's Simple Gifts and Korea's Ahrirang, to create a lovely, well-crafted work for your concert. East meets West in a gentle rendition that brings out the tuneful qualities of both selections. Phrasing, balance and blend are just some of the many skills this piece can help you develop in your band. Nicely done!

Fans of David Shaffer will welcome this sparkling work for concert or contest. The opening bell-tones by the brass and brilliant woodwind figures create an electric atmosphere to introduce the work. A broad and majestic middle section makes an appealing contrast before closing with a high-energy dash to the finish!
