At Daybreak - Robert W. Smith

This simple, yet elegant melody was inspired by a sunrise over the water in Robert W. Smith's home state of Florida. We are pleased to add "At Daybreak" to our library of quality beginning band literature that focuses on lyrical and expressive performance.

At Ease! - Matt Conaway

Personal stories from two generations of servicemen led to this charming and unique trumpet trio. Written in honor of the composer's grandfather, this setting represents the atmosphere in the barracks "after hours" when the soldiers aren't quite as gung-ho as usual. Unfortunately, inspections can happen without warning, and the troops quickly assemble, clean up their bunks, and display their staunch military discipline... until the officer leaves, and life can return to normal. With just minor tempo adjustments, this delightful piece is effective for players and audiences of all ages. A great, light-hearted bit of fun for your next concert!

At Her Ladyship's Request - Carter Pann

At Kitty O'Shea's - Johan de Meij

For countless years the legendary Kitty O'Shea's, a bar at the Hilton & Towers Hotel in Chicago, has been the favourite meeting place for participants of the annual Midwest Band & Orchestra Clinic. It was at this bar that Johan de Meij met Max McKee, from whom he eventually received a commission to write a work based on the folk music of McKee's Irish forefathers. De Meij immersed himself in the project and received unexpected help when, while purchasing an espresso machine from a neighbour, discovered the owner was Bill Whelan, composer of Riverdance. Time for another round At Kitty O'Shea's!

At Movies With James Horner - J. Horner

James Horner's film scores are fresh, unmistakable, and timelessly melodic. This collection is not so much a medley of tunes as it is a portrait of his styles and moods. Incorporating selections from The Pelican Brief, Troy, and Glory, the piece is a tapestry of the dramatic and emotional cinematic textures only James Horner can provide. (4:15)

At Peace - Conaway

"At Peace" provides bands of all levels an opportunity to show off their sensitive side. Beautiful and memorable themes are carefully balanced with very playable phrasing and doublings, making an expressive performance possible for bands with limited instrumentation. Simplicity of rhythm and range makes this work accessible to very young bands, while rich sonorities and expression help encourage a mature sounding performance. Highly recommended!

At Sight (March) - Harold Bennett

Wearing his Harold Bennett hat, Henry Fillmore turned out some especially delightful marches. At Sight is a particularly breezy example of the Bennett style, and Larry Clark's respectful and adroit young band arrangement is a real winner. The lighthearted and tuneful character of this little gem is a wonderful way to teach young musicians the joys of the March style and form.
