Ancient Visions - Roland Barrett

After a brief lyrical introduction, Roland Barrett begins a rhythmic ostinato that sets the stage for the heroic statements made by the brass. Open 5ths become very effective in the simple contrapuntal writing that adds to the overall energy. Brief solo trumpet is used in the lyrical middle section before a climax presented by full band. The final section brings back material from the opening with a key change that adds even more intensity to the exciting conclusion. An easy, yet effective contest or festival work.

Ancient Voices - Michael Sweeney

MusicWorks - Grade 1 Rarely does any single publication have such an effect on band literature as this unique and striking composition from 1994. Individually, the parts are relatively simple. Yet the combined effect is sophisticated and impressive far beyond its easy level. Michael uses a wealth of contemporary devices (including tone clusters, recorders, singing, pencil tapping) to create an aura of prehistoric times. This new edition includes a full recording and is a must for every program. (3:45)

And Grace Will Lead Me Home - Andrew Poor

As with many of the compositions of Andrew Poor, the melody is beautiful with gorgeous harmonies. It is a medium tempo with the quarter note set at 80 beats per minute. It will be loved by your audience. The 1st trumpet's highest note is G. Only the 1st clarinet crosses the break.

And Hearts Shall Weep - Amy Webb

This is the song your audience will be talking about after the concert. It is an easy piece with beautiful harmonies and melodies. It is slow and not complicated. 1st trumpet's highest note is E. 3rd clarinets do not cross the break.
