Eine Kleine Christmas
The lights dim, the audience is hushed, the baton is aloft, and ‘away we go!’ ‘Tis a musical romp with tongue in cheek, and we hope that Mr. Mozart’s attorney is not in the house. Smiles will turn to giggles, and even an embouchure or two may fall prey to the humor. Relax . . . it’s the season to be jolly! (duration 2:34)

El Relicario
“El Relicario” is a well-known pasodoble by Spanish composer José Padilla (1889–1960).

An enchanting Spanish flourish for your developing band . . . Olé! (2:30)SKU: AL38335 -

El Tango
The Tango is a well known and recognizable style of music that originated in Argentina in the mid 19th century. El Tango is a fresh and creative example of this style, as the music gives the effect of building intensity from beginning to end. Lots of imaginative and “tasty” percussion parts add to the effect. A fun, “surprise” ending brings this enjoyable and stylistic work to a close. This is a wonderful change of pace for any concert or festival performance!SKU: AL33848 -

Escapade at Twilight

Perfect as an opening or closing selection, your students will enjoy performing this work . . . but let’s be careful out there!SKU: AL46624 -

Escape!
Try to picture extracting yourself from a maze with someone closely in pursuit, darting here, there and everywhere as quickly as you could to find a way out of. “Fleet afoot” would be an appropriate way to describe how the music in this piece should be approached—played lightly and with a sense of direction leading to the next phrase or rhythmic pattern. This tuneful and rhythmic offering provides some delightful twists and turns along the way! (3:00)SKU: AL41947 -

España Cañí
The familiar melody of this paso doble is more recognizable by ear than by title. With a Latin flair, Michael Story has masterfully scored this traditional double step for young band with energy and pizzazz. Right in the pocket . . . all we can say is Ole!SKU: AL30771 -

Española
Astound the audience and add some flash to your next program with this fiery and energetic concert opener. Written in a “bravura” style, with a Spanish flare, and change in modal preferences, this fascinating original composition will certainly defy the characteristics of the traditional march as a concert opener.
