The Vindicator - Kevin Kaisershot
There are likely many examples of a person's beliefs or actions that, at first, may have been questioned, but over time have been proven to be right or justified thereby providing vindication. This march is written as a means to teach the standardized march format. It begins in G minor but transitions to E-flat major.

The Uprising - David Marlatt
provides ultimate flexibility for ensembles with incomplete instrumentation or odd combinations. These pieces are playable by as few as 5 woodwind, brass, or string players with or without percussion. This creates the opportunity for a mixed quintet to perform these titles but also allows for performance for 10-15 players up to full a band/orchestra with parts doubling. Great for music camps, contest use or any band room that has non-standard instrumentation. is a bold and daring work portraying a group challenging the people in power. This has been staged in 6 programatic sections: "The Current Regime" is noble and confident in character---perhaps too confident. "Next Is the Planning"---the rebel forces begin planning quietly but with purpose and drive. This builds as "The Forces Gather"---louder, stronger, and passionate about their beliefs. This inevitably leads to "Battle!" where the forces collide in combat. Short aggressive bursts of sound lead to "Victory Is Ours," where a new order takes their place in charge. "Celebration" begins and builds to a joyous conclusion.

Ticonderoga March - Leroy Anderson
Ticonderoga is the only work that Leroy Anderson composed exclusively for band, which is certainly odd given his beginnings as a bandmaster at Harvard. First sketched in 1939, the piece was scored and published in 1945. The first edition had no full score, a condensed score being not only faster but also the tradition of the time. This edition of the march changes none of Anderson's music or scoring but does provide for the first time a full score for the convenience of the conductor.

Something Modal - Ryan Meeboer
provides ultimate flexibility for ensembles with incomplete instrumentation or odd combinations. These pieces are playable by as few as 5 woodwind, brass or string players with or without percussion. This creates the opportunity for a mixed quintet to perform these titles but also allows for performance for 10-15 players up to full a band/orchestra with parts doubling. Great for music camps, contest use or any band room that has non-standard instrumentation. Something Modal is a laid back jump swing chart. The melodies and backgrounds are very simple yet catchy. Every section gets an opportunity to play something interesting and fun, but also contribute to the overall feel of the piece. Chord changes are easy enough to open up opportunities for players to practice and show off their improvising abilities. (2:30)

Dancin' on the Bayou - Ralph Ford
It's real fun, but real music as well. Your percussion section will crave the focus on special effects requiring a washtub, washboards, and jugs (a number of the percussion parts are optional but certainly enhance the entertaining effect). Special guests can also join in the fun! This work provides a wonderful opportunity to introduce cut time and perform authentic Cajun or Zydeco styles. (1:16)

Fortitude: A Fanfare - Ronald C. Knoener
by Ronald C. Knoener is as much a processional march as it is a fanfare. The theme is of a bold, fanfare nature but it is followed by a secondary theme of a melodic style that will please the ear. The percussion writing is exposed but not difficult. (2:00)

A Ceremonial Occasion - Kenneth Bray
A terrific fanfare opening sets the tone for this short but rhythmically interesting original band composition. Colourful percussion adds to the majesty of the wind parts. The brass carry the majority of the melodic material with flourishes from the upper woodwinds. This is another creative Canadian work that is not a "typical band" piece but a unique and exciting addition to the repertoire.
