Arcanes

Arch of Triumph (French March) - Johnnie Vinson

Written in a traditional French style this stately march draws its title from the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Terrific as a change of pace march, this unique work is solidly scored with fanfare-like figures and appealingmelodies. Dur: 2:00

Archduke Albrecht March - Karel Komzak II

Archers of the Forbidden Forest - Joseph Eidson

Imagine a dark forest filled with unspeakable danger where a moving shadow could be a stray branch or hidden danger waiting to strike. Protecting us are the brave souls on horseback that can be heard riding to the rescue with heroic fanfare-like melodies announcing their approach. Adventurous melodies combine with galloping rhythms to drive away the danger for a grand and victorious ending.

Archetypes - Sean O'Loughlin

Sean O'Loughlin brings us an intense and rhythmically stimulating new work for the young band with Archetypes! Full of teachable moments and high-impact areas, this one is sure to keep them in their seats from start to finish! An enjoyable time for both musicians and audiences alike, Archetypes is a winner!

Archrival - Peter Terry

Archrival is a rhythmically driven piece with lots of cinematic excitement. You will hear the mysterious opening followed by angular themes and rhythmic drive that builds up to sweeping majestic moments. A stunning new piece from composer Peter Terry, this is quality sophisticated musical material for highlighting your band at contest or festival.

Arctic Funk - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen

Arctic Funk might just as well have been a flashing sequel to a scene from Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story. Popular music but with a difference, as indicated by the title. The work's quiet section temporarily soothes down the heated passion of its two corner movements, but everywhere else action is required throughout. The work was commissioned in 1991 by Troms? Brass. Situated just above the Polar Circle, Troms? is one of Norway's northernmost towns. Topographically, the town probably comes across as freezing cold, but Troms? is famous for its 'warm' night-life. The Composer: In Arctic Funk you might get a feeling of a party that takes place betweenice-rocks and snow-capped mountains.
