All things mysterious happen between midnight and dawn, and composer Mike Hammonds has captured the feeling of dreams and nightmares in From Midnight ‘Til Dawn. Creative use of the key of g minor along with generous use of open fourths and fifths gives the music an air of medieval mystery. With cross-cueing between sections and minimal demands on your players, this piece will stand out for any young ensemble. Exceptional programmatic music for the very young band!

The modest solo changes (suggested solos are included) will encourage your students to give it a try. This appealing holiday chart is perfect for that jazz moment in your holiday concert!
