Alien - Jerry Goldsmith

Alien Crossfire! - J. McBride

"Alien Crossfire" combines contrasting themes to create powerful and exciting musical moments that your students will be eager to perform. The battle is on in this adventurous and exciting fanfare/opener for beginning bands. Using only the first six notes taught in most beginning band methods, "Alien Crossfire" is a dramatic and accessible work that will thrill students and audiences. Highly recommended!

Alien Marching Machine - John Prescott

This creative work is one more addition to a series of band pieces that musically describe the fictional saga of an alien invasion. In this installment, the mysterious and persistent visitors from outer space are continuing their quest for world domination with a new and formidable weapon, a giant robotic android. Massive and ominous, it clanks along seemingly unstoppable as the alien troops march forward, bent on total conquest. Effective as a standalone piece, you can also combine it with the other works Aliens Landing (In Your Backyard!), Alien Invasion, and Aliens Among Us for a complete musical sci-fi mini series.

Aliens in the Attic - Tyler Arcari

Aliens are attacking! From the attic?! Yep, there are invaders from outer space hiding in the attic, and it's time to run for your lives! Beginning students will absolutely love this creative work and all the literal bells and whistles. Not to mention whirly tubes and sirens. They won't even realize they are learning various types of accents and dynamics as well as minor mode. Sure to be a hit!

Aline - Henry Fillmore

Another classic Harold Bennett (pseudonym for Henry Fillmore) march, first presented as part of the Bennett Band Book series. Every year, more and more band directors choose these little march gems, arranged by Larry Clark, for contest warm-up. They are tuneful, easy to play, and simply sound great!
