King Cotton (March)

King Karl King - Henry Fillmore

Originally written for a film (The Big Brass Band) that was never made, this terrific but little-known march turned out to be the last march that Fillmore would write. Unusually rich in harmony, it was not published in Fillmore's lifetime. He had asked that it be named after his friend and fellow march composer, Karl L. King, if the movie was not produced.

Kings of Christmas - Traditional

Kith and Kin

As the title suggests, Kith and Kin will inspire reflection and fond feelings for loved ones. Opening with a warmly lush introduction, the piece features a beautiful, tuneful melody that will take your audience's breath away. Introducing some advanced compositional techniques, the piece is also a perfect vehicle to move students into more sophisticated literature.

Kivgik

Meaning "messenger" in Inuit, Carl Strommen's piece Kivgik was inspired by the composer's observance of a large gathering of the Inuit people in Alaska. Carl has tried to emulate the sound of their drums being used for communication. The piece also contains bold harmonic colors and driving 6/8 rhythms. There is a nice repose section in the middle of the piece that symbolizes the more solemn parts of this annual gathering or Kivgik. This multicultural piece offers many unique, cross-curriculum teaching opportunities and will be perfect at your next contest or festival performance.

Lamplight Village

Lamplight Village evokes the peacefulness and coziness of a fantasy-setting village in mid-evening.

This piece provides the opportunity to work with your students on tone, phrasing, and intonation while improving their musicianship overall. Great for concert or festival, this unique and gentle piece will give your young band a rich and mature sound.
