Ghost Ship - Michael Story

Inspired by the merchant ship Mary Celeste that set sail from New York City in early November of 1872, bound for Genoa, Italy. The ship never reached its destination and, to this day, no one knows for sure why. This original composition will fill your beginners' imagination with some chilling effects. Highly recommended!

Ghosts of the Lost Ship - Tyler S. Grant

This highly programmatic work tells the story of buccaneer naval warfare and the ghosts that linger to this day, haunting the seas and all who pass through them. After an evocative opening featuring numerous rattles, the music becomes aggressive and relentless as it portrays the credo-driven pirates and their attacks during the height of their power. Intense and extremely engaging!

Gizmo - Ralph Ford

Look up the word "Gizmo," and you will find references to its origin in the slang used by United States Marines and Navy personnel when referring to a "gadget" of unknown origin or design. Ralph Ford's inventive work for your first-year players uses a ratchet in the percussion section to musically depict a gizmo. Great fun! (1:30) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

Glaciers - Scott Director

Five musical vignettes demonstrating this wonder of nature are joined to create this refreshing new work. Opening with sounds that conjure the image of formations, builds to grandiose proportions. As the work develops, listeners are drawn to the destruction of the massive ice structure as it crashes to the sea below and concludes with vivid musical imagery signaling the battle for the glacier's survival and the beginning of the cycle once again. A stunning addition to the concert band repertoire! (5:18) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
