£57.50Where Mountains Touch the Sky - Robert Buckley
With sensitive scoring and use of colors and textures, this descriptive piece sounds more advanced and sophisticated than its grade level would suggest. Where Mountains Touch the Sky is a tone poem inspired by springtime in thealpine meadows of British Columbia. While the lofty peaks are still covered with snow, the rivers are flowing and the meadows are coming alive with wildflowers. This lyrical work begins quietly and peacefully, building steadily toa soaring climax before returning to a soft and reverent conclusion. Dur: 3:00

£60.99Seconds Out - Samuel R. Hazo
In boxing, the term seconds out refers to the moment when coaches and trainers (or seconds) must be out of the ring, leaving the competitors alone to face the competition. In a similar vein, this composition provides a musicaldescription of the challenges and triumphs of students as they transition from middle to high school, leaving their seconds (parents, mentors, etc.) behind to face life on their own terms. Featuring a strong sense of urgencythroughout, Seconds Out is solidly written for inexperienced ensembles with plenty of tutti scoring, and interspersed with sections of contrasting dynamics and effective percussion writing. (Grade 2) Dur: 3:50

Cloud Nine - Lauren Bernofsky
This spirited work, in 3/4, maintains a quick tempo throughout. The opening, rhythmic motif builds steadily before the full band states the main theme. A lightly scored middle section leads into a restatement of the beginning material. A wonderful piece to challenge your group, as Lauren makes use of some independent lines while staying well within the grade level.

Whirlwinds - John Kinyon
A rhythmic Allegretto theme opens this ABA piece in grand fashion. The first theme will give your band the opportunity to work on a wide variety of 16th-note rhythms while paying attention to dynamics and phrasing. The second theme is in 3/4 time and is slower. It features a swirling melody that gives the piece its distinctive name. The piece then returns to the up-tempo first theme and closes the work with a loud, accelerando ending. (Grade 1---Easy)

Oxford Pointe - Ed Huckeby
Features the appealing melodies, exciting rhythms, and solid scoring that you have come to expect from Ed Huckeby. After an effective Maestoso introduction, the bright Allegro really punches out the main theme. The contrasting Andante section in 3/4 has a beautiful melody first presented in the upper woodwinds and then later with the full ensemble. Huckeby's previous pieces at this grade level have been extremely well received and "Oxford Pointe" is certainly one of his nicest efforts to date.

£59.95Basses Are Aces - Joseph Compello
Designed by a master offeriting for this grade level, Bases Are Aces was written to encourage the low brass and woodwind players, while still being fun for the whole band to play. A great recruitment piece, it will motivate the frequently overlooked members of the low instrument contingent, who anchor the band. Some simple syncopations, such as a spoken line by the other members of the band ("How low can you go?") and a brief, repeated, "cadenza," add to the fun of this clever piece. Duration: 3' 10"

£59.95Heroes Of The Galaxy - Joseph Compello
A grand, Star Wars-style processional march that will enchant sci-fi buffs of all ages, Heroes of the Galaxy uses only the first six notes customarily taught in most band methods (Bb-G). Tuneful and contrapuntally sophisticated for this level, Compello's artistry as a writer is amply displayed in the surprising and colorful musical use he makes of the limited resources available in a grade one piece. Duration: 3'
