Bundeslied - Jacob de Haan
The melody of Bundeslied originates from Mozart's' Frimaurerkantate (KV62) from 1791. However research has shown evidence that it was probably composed by Johann Holzer, a freemason brother of his, but there is no definite evidence for this. Following the Second World War this melody was used as the basis for the new Austrian national anthem. Micheal Bilkes has adapted this beautiful, stately hymn for concert band. The result is a captivating work for both performers and audience.

Purple Mountain Majesty (America, The Beautiful) - Samuel A. Ward
Purple Mountain Majesty is an arrangement of Samuel Augustus Ward's beloved patriotic anthem America, the Beautiful. While the band arrangement by Carmen Dragon remains a classic in its own right, this setting is designed to provide younger bands with a more technically accessible yet still harmonically interesting version. The woodwind exposures surrounding the original melodic material are intended to place the piece in a more pastoral environment, hence the title.
