Ye Olde Dance Musicke (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Fraser, Bruce
This piece reflects the style of Elizabethan dance music. The opening tempo should be quite steady, though played with energy. Good balance is required to achieve the contrasts. The change of tempo should be easily achieved, again taking care with the balance, dynamics and accents to produce an energetic performance.Titles in the Prelude Series are specifically scored for bands with few, if any, bass instruments but will sound well on larger ensembles. The bass line is playable by any combination of bass clarinet, bassoon, baritone saxophone, trombone, euphonium or tuba; in the event that none of these is available, the part for trombone/euphonium (B flat TC) can be played by tenor saxophone. The tuned percussion part is entirely optional and can be played by any available instrument(s). Each piece also includes a preliminary exercise. This is always in the same key as the accompanying piece and consists of a scale and chord progression that can be used for improving ensemble, balance, intonation and instrumental facility by changing tempo, articulation and dynamics.Duration: 1:45

Totally Tropical! (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Barry, Darrol
Totally Tropical! is in bright Caribbean mood and will benefit from good, rhythmic playing. Flutes, oboes, clarinets and trumpets all have to play the little chromatic figure that starts the main tune and this may need slow practice to become fluent. Additional percussion instruments may be added to give a 'Calypso' sound.Titles in the Prelude Series are specifically scored for bands with few, if any, bass instruments but will sound well on larger ensembles.

Courtly Dance and Procession - Brian Balmages
You'll be surprised to know that this great sounding work uses only six notes in all instruments, with the exception of the clarinets, which use a low written B to involve the right hand. The piece has a Renaissance quality to it and includes a middle processional theme (at the same tempo) to work on legato playing. Optional parts are included for clarinet 2 and trumpet 2. There is something for everyone in this dynamic addition to the repertoire!

Grenade
A pop R&B ballad by recording artist Bruno Mars, this hot chart was nominated for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and a track on Album of the Year by the Grammys in 2011. The arrangement begins with an introduction featuring the clarinet section and rapidly develops to the easy driving pulse of the melody initiated by the trumpets and the entire ensemble. Recognizable and energetic! (2:00)

Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of constant motion. Larry Clark represents this idea with a near constant 8th-note pulse throughout his supercharged piece. Though the piece ends in B flat major, the main idea is in the Lydian mode on E flat. Kinetic Energy is Clark at his most incisive and the scoring is apt and colorful.
