Labyrinth
The term “labyrinth” refers to an intricate and confusing maze of pathways. In similar fashion, William Himes’ somewhat devious, yet delightful musical representation takes the listener (and performer) on a journey of increasing complexity and musical twists and turns before ultimately revealing the familiar path leading to the exit. Composed using a single tempo, Labyrinth offers a unique and effective setting for band. Dur: 3:20SKU: HL04003290 -

Lament and Tribal Dances
Commissioned by the Iowa Bandmasters Association, this dynamic work from Michael Sweeney is written in three contrasting sections. The opening “Lament” features a plaintive horn melody and expansive harmonies. The mood then shifts to an intensely rhythmic dance using an unusual modal scale. In the final section, the flutes switch to recorders and a driving percussion ostinato figure helps propel this magnificent piece to a dramatic ending. A rewarding and satisfying work from one of today’s best composers for young bands.SKU: HL4001926 -

Lanier Variants
During his brief lifetime, Sidney Lanier (1842-1881) was at one time or another a soldier, musician, teacher, lawyer, and a college professor. He is perhaps best remembered as a poet and for the middle school in Fairfax, Virginia which bears his name. Inspired by a favorite Lanier quote (“Music is love in search of a word”), Johnnie Vinson has fashioned a musical theme which captures the essence of this sentiment. With a bit of early American flavor, this main theme progresses through a series of contrasting variations, culminating in a grand and heroic closing statement. Dur: 4:50SKU: HLPC21000 -

The contrasting middle section pulls back to a reflective and mysterious solo for recorder (or optional flute), accompanied by exotic percussion instruments. Then, the beautiful theme is continued by solo trumpet, making for a truly incredible moment.SKU: AL19546 -
