The Awakening - Brian Balmages
This captivating composition was inspired by that 'breakthrough' moment when people start to realize there is much more to life than they originally thought. Opening with a woodwind ostinato, the horns introduce the melody thatbecomes the focus of the work. The pace continues through a beautiful lyrical section that soon explodes into a triumphant ending of brass under a flourishing woodwind ostinato. An ideal concert opener.

Court of the Noble Trumpeteers - Timothy Loest
This innovative trumpet feature gives you the unique option of using two groups of antiphonal trumpets set up on either side of the band. All instruments use just six notes in this excellent opener or trumpet feature for your next concert. The piece uses only two dynamic levels and helps you teach accents and staccatos. For added visual splendor, consider having your "trumpeteers" hang colorful pennants from their instruments. Very easy.

Of Men and the Sea (Grade 4) - Roland Barrett
Woodwind flourishes set the stage for the heroic main theme, which establishes the pace of the work. The quiet middle section reflects the sailors' isolation from land and loved ones before the feeling of triumph emerges once again, as the thrill of sailing on the high seas comes crashing right into your concert hall. A great concert opener!

Flight - Brian Balmages
Premiered at Carnegie Hall, this minimalistic fanfare celebrates SpaceShipOne, the first privately manned spacecraft to exceed an altitude of 62 miles twice within two weeks. The three sections explore the launch to space, reaching the apogee (weightlessness), and the return to the atmosphere. Punctuated by incredible brass fanfares and woodwind flourishes, the entire work is a bundle of energy from start to finish, and is the perfect opener for any concert. Monumental! (4:21)

Prairie Winds Festival is a fast, happy-go-lucky concert opener. It is very carefully scored and cross-cued, so that almost any size band can perform it. The Piccolo, 2nd Oboe, 2nd Bassoon, Contra-Alto Clarinet, 3rd Trombone and Double Bass parts are all optional, but if you have these instruments, it will sound more full.

£64.99A Hymn To New England - John Williams
Written in 1987 as the accompaniment to New England Time Capsule, an Omnimax travelogue, and recently recorded by the Boston Pops, this three minute concert work adapts wonderfully for band. With true Williams craftmanship, it features brassy fanfares and a rich, sonorous hymn, all based on the same melodic intervals. John Williams' brilliant orchestration is successfully captured, making this a superb concert opener for bands.
