Benediction
Originally scored for brass choir, composer John Stevens brings us this marvelous version for full band featuring flowing melodies and counterlines in a rich chorale-like setting. The solo part at the beginning and end is scored for euphonium, but is cued for clarinet, trumpet or trombone. Great for teaching a lyric style of playing, and also as an effective performance piece.

Blue and Green Music
The stunning artwork of Georgia O’Keeffe is no more apparent than in her famous 1921 painting entitled Blue and Green Music. Fittingly commissioned by the Patrick Marsh Middle School in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin (O’Keeffe’s birthplace), Samuel Hazo does an amazing job of portraying subtle as well as bold colors into musical terms. Based on a single theme that is manipulated and varied throughout, the piece progresses from delicate mallet percussion effects up to climactic impact points for the entire ensemble. O’Keeffe explained her idea that “music could be translated into something for the eye.” And Mr. Hazo succeeds wonderfully in translating it back into something for the ear!

Blue Tango
At the height of his career in the mid-1930s, Leroy Anderson began arranging for Arthur Fiedler’s Boston Pops Orchestra. Later, Fiedler encouraged him to write his own tunes for the Pops. His compositions, more than 50 in number, virtually define the sound of the contemporary American pops orchestra.Blue Tango was a #1 hit in 1951, juxtaposing the charismatic melody over a traditional tango pulse. The work captured the spirit of an era. This new edition was originally arranged by the composer for concert band and has been freshly re-engraved with a full score for the first time, permitting a uniformity of articulation throughout the work.
