On Parade - Edwin Franko Goldman

Edwin Franko Goldman's energetic composition On Parade is both programmatic and descriptive of parades from yesteryear, complete with bugle, fife (piccolo), and drum strains. In addition, a joyful vocal refrain was included in the 1934 edition of the march with lyrics by Goldman. Edward Lisk's meticulous, modern edition brings this wonderful new march to the attention of a whole new generation of band musicians.

A delightful example of the Goldman style at its most infectious, this concert edition by Edward Lisk will make this charmer from the early 1930s available for a new generation of performers and listeners. Edwin Franko Goldman (1878-1956), who founded the Goldman band in 1918, was one of the great bandsmen who was inspired by the example of John Philip Sousa in creating the modern marching band repertoire.

Orion's Sword

An evocative and mysterious opening, heroic themes and cinematic scoring characterize this varied and musically rich piece by the well-known television and film composer, Alan Lee Silva. The band writing is fresh and the tune from the slow middle section, which is divided among solo flute, oboe and clarinet, is particularly appealing. This piece will be a great choice for contest and concert use.
