Named in tribute to the powerful Atlas rocket that carried the first Americans into orbit during the space race, Atlas Rising is a surprisingly mature-sounding work that only uses the first six notes learned in most band methods. Atlas Rising is carefully composed in an ABA overture style, with the success of young players in mind, while memorable themes will make it a favorite with students and audiences. Blast off with Atlas Rising!

Get Off My Housetop – A Christmas Felony provides a unique and somewhat twisted musical perspective on the concept of Santa Claus. When we review all the lore surrounding St. Nick, it is easy to interpret him and his job as kind of creepy. This student-approved arrangement uses Up On the Housetop and Jolly Old St. Nicholas - along with a host of fun percussion effects - to offer some new thoughts on Santa. You’ve never played a Christmas piece quite like this before!
