Celtic Carol
Robert W. Smith has scored a hit with this Irish treatment, based on the holiday classic “What Child Is This?”. Beginning with a piccolo solo staged over the tuba, the work builds to a frenzy. This year’s most exciting holiday choice. (2:35)SKU: ALBDM02054 -

Celtic Farewell
Music has power to help us heal and cope with the loss of loved ones. Using the beloved traditional Scottish ballad “The Parting Glass” combined with an original new melody, here is a beautifully paced and sensitive musical memorial with a Celtic flavor. A key element of this work is the use of Highland bagpipes. If a pipe player is not available, this part is cued in multiple parts throughout the band (or use a synthesizer with bagpipe patch). A moving tribute for any memorial. Dur: 4:30SKU: HL04004749 -

Celtic Voyage
Inspired by the many hardships of the Irish immigrants, this piece brings hope of a new world, a new lease on life and a second chance. The piece begins with the sound of the ocean in the background (played by the ocean drum) while a solo flute plays the main theme. As the piece develops the theme represents several scenes: first, the knowledge that life needs to change due to the famine and hardships of the time; second, the immigrants begin their move to America; third, the arrival in America and seeing the statue of Liberty, which is the climactic moment of the piece; and finally, ending with the same idea in the beginning of the piece but now as memory and longing for Ireland.SKU: AL31716 -

Centennial March
This uplifting march begins with the clarinets presenting the melody over a single snare drum accompaniment. The textures increase as the melody is developed, leading to a heavier minor section featuring strong lines by the low brass and woodwinds. A modified “roll-off” by the percussion section leads to a seamless modulation and the final presentation of the melody. A dynamic augmentation of the melody brings the march to a stirring conclusion.SKU: AL36676 -

Chant de Noël
This fresh holiday classic arrangement is based on the popular French Christmas carol “Sing We Now of Christmas,” composed in the early 1500s. With the pulse initially established in the percussion, each voice in the band has an opportunity with the melody and the arrangement relaxes to a peaceful conclusion. (2:00)SKU: AL44882 -

Chant Rituals
Cast in three main sections, Chant Rituals makes use of two contrasting thematic statements to exploit the timbral and rhythmic resources of the symphonic band. A highly chromatic middle section leads to a dramatic restatement of the original material. A powerful and dramatic work for concert and contest.

Chanteys
Chanteys is an original work that recalls the music of the sea and its sailors. A jaunty opening sparkles with character and style before yielding to a pensive “Andante.” The piece closes with a spirited juxtaposition of thematic material. Expressive, entertaining and great fun to play, Chanteys is another excellent choice for contests or spring concerts by Robert Sheldon. This piece was also selected by the Yamaha Music Media Corporation of Japan as one of the “100 Best Pieces for Band” for 2001.SKU: AL19542
