Symphonic Suite
A suite of five movements with different material. Each movement is associated through the use of one theme. The first, “Intrada,” is fanfare-like, and the second, “Chorale,” features a trumpet solo. “March,” the third movement, is reminiscent of the opening material, followed by “Antique Dance,” which has a modal melody. The final movement, “Jubilee,” is clearly the most intense. The work is an Ostwald Award-Winning Composition of the American Bandmasters Association and is clearly a repertoire standard.

The Banquet…and the poison soup plot
Providing a unique concert experience, this programmatic work depicts the story of what newspapers in 1916 described as “the poison soup plot”! At a Chicago banquet for dignitaries and politicians, a mass murder plot involving poison soup was hatched and nearly successful. However, thanks to a large number of unexpected guests, the dilution of the soup to feed everyone, and a quick thinking doctor with an antidote, tragedy was averted with no loss of life. Musical cues follow the events, and detailed program notes are included with the suggestion of including dancers to help tell the story. Imaginative and entertaining! Recorded by the University of Kansas Symphonic Band (Lawrence, KS) – Matthew O. Smith, conductor. Dur: ca. 7:45SKU: HL48024502 -
