After the Cakewalk - Robert Nathaniel Dett

Despite his having moved to the United States with his family when he was 11 years old, Robert Nathaniel Dett (1882-1943) was born in Canada where glimpses of his talent had already begun to manifest themselves at an early age. Among Dett's earliest titles was his Characteristic March Two-Step, After the Cakewalk. Perhaps written when Dett was just a teenager, this current edition is wholly based upon its original 1901 band publication that was arranged by Lee Orean Smith. Smith was also responsible for preparing Dett's piano solo version for publication, as well as its form for theatre orchestra and mandolin club. Owing to the fact that Smith's highly idiomatic scoring was prepared for a band of that period, this edition adapts, edits and extends Smith's instrumentation in order to make it possible for Dett's music to become available to a new generation of musicians and listeners alike. (Grade 4)

After the Darkness... - William Owens

After the Darkness... was thoughtfully written to honor and lift up the ten beautiful lives (eight students and two teachers) that were taken by a senseless act of violence in the early morning of May 18, 2018, on the high school campus at Santa Fe, Texas. A heavy work with a lot to learn from and listen to.

After The Storm - Jonathan McBride

"After the Storm" combines graceful melodies and soaring countermelodies with carefully scored dissonances that are rare at this grade level. Rhythms and ranges are accessible for younger players so that you may focus on musical aspects such as intonation, dynamics and phrasing. This delicate work gives your students the opportunity to expressively perform the poignant mix of emotions that come "After the Storm."

Afternoon Games - Eric Ewazen

OLD SETTLERS' PICNIC is a is a four-movement suite for Band by Eric Ewazen, arranged by Virginia Allen; each movement is published separately. Composed with high school performers in mind, the suite was inspired by an 1890s photograph and descriptions of a Wisconsin town's "Old Settlers" celebration. AFTERNOON GAMES are depicted with a Vivace scherzo in 6/8. The running and skipping leads to an extended fugue for a copycat game before returning to the opening theme.
