One of the most dramatic selections ever presented for band, Andrea Chenier has been a staple of mature and professional bands for over a century. This intense and exciting work includes some of the most passionate moments from the Italian opera into a breathtaking tour de force for mature bands. Prominently featuring bel-canto solos for euphonium and cornet/trumpet, the gorgeous melodies and dramatic musical climaxes will both thrill and excite performers and audiences alike. This striking new arrangement includes full score, and is carefully re-orchestrated to be more idiomatic to the wind band medium. Not for the faint-of-heart, and musically challenging, Andrea Chenier is ideal for experienced bands, and is not to be missed!

It’s virtually impossible to visit Ireland without feeling an instant appreciation for the scenic countryside, the endearing charm of its many citizens, and for the deep-rooted history of the country’s many crowning achievements. Solo trumpet/cornet (cued for euphonium) packaged with a brief, but optional, vocal solo highlights the beginning and ending of this beautiful piece. The middle section is pure Irish charm with a light and lively theme performed over the drones of bagpipes along with the rudimental sounds of drummers drumming. Simply stunning!

This rip-snortin' circus march will thrill audiences and performers alike! Composed by classic circus band leader Fred Jewell, this march was dedicated to P. G. Lowery, an African-American cornet virtuoso who was a pioneering headliner in circus bands and is the Jackie Robinson of the American band movement. Walloping low brass, dizzying woodwinds, and screaming trumpets bring the big top to like in this exciting and challenging march. Wow!
