Apex - Andrew Glover

This snappy march for the Barnhouse "Command" series from the pen of Andrew Glover is an excellent choice for younger bands learning traditional march style. Every section of the band has a chance to shine, and young musicians will sound their best on this mature-sounding toe-tapper. A solid choice for middle school/junior high bands, or high school bands of limited instrumentation and experience. Your band will reach its "apex" performing this delightful march!

Apex Predator - Michael Oare

In every ecosystem, an apex predatory is an animal existing at the very top of the food chain; never preyed upon themselves. Michael Oare's programmatic work opens with a haunting flute solo accompanied by various mysterious effects. The pace then quickens as we explore the intensity, danger, and majesty connected with these magnificent natural hunters. Dur: ca. 3:50

Aphrodite

Aphrodite - Aldo Rafael Forte

A striking musical picture of the Goddess of Love; her birth from the foam of the sea, her other-worldly beauty, and her bewitching power over mortal men. From: "Olympus: Four Mythological Legends." Splendid!

Aphrodite (Clarinet) - Hardy Mertens

Apocalyps II - Piet Swerts

Apocalyps II is an abstract piece of music with a conventional structure (ABA-coda). The work is very energetic, the only rest being a quite short chorale-like middle section which is quickly followed by the finale again rushing ahead at full speed. The composer expresses anger and fire alternating with joy and energy by means of the enormous colourful movements.

Apocalypse - Derek Bourgeois

Apocalypse Now - Richard Wagner

Apocalyptic Dreams - David R. Gillingham

Apollo - Jan Van der Roost

Like previous marches by Jan Van der Roost (Mercury, Arsenal, Helios, Minerva, Artemis, Montana...) the overall character of Apollo is rather stately and noble. Broad themes and a lyrical trio melody offer the opportunity for variousregisters to shine and to display their qualities, making this concert march a captivating experience for players and audience alike! Starting in a minor key, the march soon turns towards the major, reflecting the festive character of a true'jubilee march'.
