Game of T-Bones

Gayle Force

This spirited and exciting composition lets performers work on accents, articulations, dynamics and the development of a controlled sound in a contemporary feeling work. Use of an ostinato rhythm, interesting percussion parts and the usual Quincy Hilliard compositional surprises makes this a great choice for concert or contest performances.

Generosity - Matthew R. Putnam

Generosity is an original march in standard form, but written with developing players in mind. It is reminiscent of the wonderful marches of Bennett or King, with tuneful melodies, interesting harmonies, and a few chromatic twists thrown in to make it more exciting. Mathew Putnam has written a perfect vehicle to teach the march style and form to developing players.

Genius (March) - Harold Bennett

Ghost Chasers

Ghost Chasers is a perfect selection for Halloween, but great for any time you're in the mood for some spooky fun. In this playful piece, Ghost and Chaser are heard in the simple counterpoint between the two sections. Students will find the independent part playing both challenging and fun. Your ensemble will also gain experience in changing articulation from Marcato to Legato and practicing restraint and balance in the half measure lag between the two sections playing the same theme.

Ghost Dancing

An excellent study and introduction to contemporary compositional techniques, Ghost Dancing will stimulate the students in their exploration of modern music. Some of the dissonances are biting, adding to the excitement of the piece. The contrasting lyrical middle section gives a release from the tension before leading back to the aggressive main theme. You might consider this for performance around Halloween!

Gifted Leadership (March) - Henry Fillmore

Gifted Leadership is a most interesting march with some unique scoring that sets it apart from many more ordinary marches. The woodwind parts are especially intriguing, with much more variety and independence than is frequently found in a traditional march. Fillmore wrote this march to honor the leadership of famed band leader and cornet soloist Frank Simon. It is authentically presented here as Fillmore intended, carefully edited by Robert E. Foster.
