Blue Ridge Rhapsody
In A-B-A form, this piece consists of two major themes, both of which are stated in the 16-measure introductory section. Although the composition is in large part romantic in style, it offers young performers an opportunity to experience the spritely 6/8 of the Allegro moderato as well as the romantic legato of the Andante cantabile section.

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.

Bluster
The winds in foothill communities throughout southern California are often unpredictable and sometimes quite fierce. They can come and go in an instant or blow relentlessly all day. Bluster seeks to musically portray these wild winds in this colorful and energetic work. In addition to the rain stick, palm fronds may be shaken in the percussion section to give a visual depiction of the wind.” The minor harmonies create some neat sounds students would not usually encounter until a higher grade level. There is a great variety of articulation and dynamics that captures the energy of fierce winds perfectly”

Bold Journey
Bold Journey opens with an aural snapshot of the early, pristine land of North America- the land of the Louisiana Purchase before the bold and historic exploration that began in 1803 with Lewis and Clark. Immediately following the impressionistic opening of the piece, a robust main theme is stated, signaling the beginning of the journey. This energetic theme and the opening section’s more tranquil melodic material are juxtaposed, varied, and combined carrying the piece and the adventurous journey to its ultimate and exciting conclusion.SKU: AL22260 -
