Lightning!
“Lightning!” was inspired by the awesome display of beauty and raw energy from a powerful spring thunderstorm that the composer observed in the night sky. Although the storm was almost 100 miles away, the sight of the accompanying electrical show was both an exhilarating and humbling experience. The aggressive parts of this composition attempt to portray the level of energy present in the storm, while the slow interior section provides an opportunity for listeners and performers alike to reflect on its visual beauty.

Concert Band, Concert Band Grade: 2Like a Mighty Stream (for Concert Band and Narrator) (Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.)
Composed in remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the title of this dramatic setting is taken from a biblical passage and quoted by Dr. King in his celebrated “I Have a Dream” speech in 1963. After a fanfare-like introduction, the piece is comprised of three sections. “The Dream” relects on Dr. King’s famous speech. This is followed by “Strife,” which recalls the violence of the civil rights movement, and finally “Hope,” which looks to a brighter future and is a setting of the hymn We Shall Overcome. Performed with or without the narration, this is a stirring work for young bands. Dur: 5:20SKU: HL04004598 -

Loch Lomond
Here are two contrasting treatments of this beautiful Scottish tune in a unique arrangement for young band. The tune is first presented using the lush harmonies, full textures and interesting inner lines that have become a Dave Black trademark. The second treatment is an enchanting dance-like march in 6/8 time that starts with a snare drum introduction, followed by open fifths in the low brass. The tune is developed with the addition of a woodwind countermelody before a final statement of the tune brings the piece to a close. Great for working on phrasing, balance and dynamics.

Ideal as a concert opener or closer, the frenetic energy of “Loco Motion” is sure to start or finish your concert with an exclamation point! (2:30)SKU: AL44203
