Shout for Joy, All the Earth!

Shout for Joy All the Earth! is a bold fantasia for the advancing concert band based on the composer's choral work of the same name. This work celebrates being alive and captures moments of intense joy and relaxed contemplation. The overall mood of this piece emphasizes the feeling that when we are overcome by joy we feel as if all of nature is celebrating with us.

Silent Midwinter's Noel

This fantasia on three traditional Christmas carol uses "In the Bleak Midwinter," "Silent Night" and "The First Noel" as its foundation. Written in accessible keys to help students achieve excellent intonation, the arrangement also helps players perform with their instrument's characteristic sound. Careful attention to the harmonic cadences will also teach performers about tension and resolution and its place in musical expression. A perfect complement to a faster holiday selection, this carol-based arrangement with a modern setting will be a favorite with all.
