Squonk Blues (Mythical Forest Creature)
This quirky, spirited piece is in the style of a blues waltz and based on the mythical legend of the squonk, a forest creature that dissolves into a pool of tears when it is cornered. However, on dark moonless nights when no one is about, they gather together to sing and dance the Squonk Blues! A unique change of pace, this composition uses the first six notes of the B-flat scale.SKU: HL04004733 -

St. Anthony Chorale
This beautiful, unique chorale serves as the basis to Johannes Brahms’s famous orchestral masterpiece Variations on a Theme of Haydn. (Long attributed to Franz Joseph Haydn, recent scholarship indicates that it was probably written by some other composer of the Classical period.) Correlated with Accent on Achievement, Book 2, page 14, this arrangement is an excellent choice for the developing band.SKU: AL20664 -

Star-Rise
Star-Rise is a programmatic work depicting the progress of the stars across the night sky. Bells set the tone with a simple three-note melody as twilight falls and the first stars appear. Percussion effects represent crickets and cicadas chirping in the background. The texture becomes more chorale-like as related but distinct themes reveal themselves, representing rising constellations. As the star themes gently roll by, the harmony grows warmer and the melody becomes more grandiose in preparation for the final star-rise: the arrival of the morning sun.“The work is a great exercise in part layering.”
