Flaming Arrow
Flaming Arrow is written for beginning band, and uses only the first six notes learned in most beginning band methods: Bb to G. The piece is cast in C minor; consequently, an alternate trombone part is provided that does not reach out to sixth position. Beginning with mysterious opening material that is used later in the work, the piece then moves to an aggressive up-tempo section with lots of percussion. This is followed by a return of the slow opening material and a gradual accelerando with the sound of tom-toms. The piece ends with a short coda for an energetic conclusion.

The Victors - Louis Elbel
This is the most famous of all college fight songs, but more impottant than that, it is a stellar concert march for contest/festival performance. The lesser known first and second strains are comparible to the great marches of John Philip Sousa and others. Andrew Balent works his magic to make it playable for today's bands.

Spectral Landscapes
Spectral Landscapes is a work for concert band that captures the grandeur, beauty, and energy of the American northwest with its mountains, rivers, and coast. The piece unfolds in two large sections, first slow, then fast. A bold fanfare gesture leads to a stunning lyrical theme before giving way to an aggressive uptempo section. This piece climaxes with a return of the slow theme in the faster tempo. Well done Sean!

Symphony No. 5
This four movement piece was composed around three recognized chorale melodies: Durch Adams Fall ("Through Adam's Fall") in the first movement; O Lamn Gottes, unschuldig ("O Lamb of God, without Blame") in the second movement; and Christ lag in Tdesbanden ("Christ Lay in the Bonds of Death") in the third and fourth movements. Although Maslanka's works usually portray feelings of loss and grief, Symphony No. 5 is filled with a bright and hopeful energy. The music continually speaks to the theme of transformation - the transformation of tears into power, and the victory of life over death.

Enterprise
Here is a dynamic concert overture from composer Jospeh Compello. The first theme is bold and pointed while the second theme is lyrical and somewhat Wagnarian in nature. The warm harmonic prgression of the tranquil middle section creates delightful musical moments. A real winner for contest performance!
