A Lafayette Portrait - Mike Hannickel

Modal harmonies evoke images of America as far back as the 1700's. The influence of the Native American tribes in the area is felt in this powerful overture. Rhythmic and contrapuntal action stake a claim to the audience's attention from the opening notes. This one is perfect for festival or concert. Commissioned for massed Middle School band concert, it works great with groups large or small. Cross-curricular potential with History.Bold and decisive!

A Land Remembered - Larry Clark

A Land Remembered is based on the novel of the same name by Patrick D. Smith, which tells the story of pioneering families in the early days of Florida. The piece is set in three continuous movements, each depicting elements of the story, from the open fanfare, "A New Life in a New Land" to the beautiful "On the Prairie" and the strident final movement, "Hardships on the Rugged Frontier." This piece will demonstrate the skill and musicality of your concert-level band.

A Lantern in the Window - Robert Sheldon

Outstanding concert or contest piece for mid-level bands depicting the story of runaway slaves making their way north via the Underground Railroad using " a lantern in the window" as their guide to safe houses along the way. Very dramatic and provides many opportunities for independent and expressive playing by your mid-level students. Much more sophisticated that is usual at this grade level.

A Last Message of Maestro Tchaikovsky - Kamillo Lendvay

A Lasting Legacy - Gary P. Gilroy

A short and powerful percussion statement sets up a celebratory fanfare to open this vibrant salute to the career of an outstanding band director. Following the opening display is a stately ceremonial march-like section that recognizes that it is the teacher that is "graduating" this time. The reverent atmosphere continues with a more solemn and respectful mood before the opening returns for a grand finale and a brilliant display of musical fireworks.
