Originally a fiddle tune, this rendition is set in a Cajun groove, and uses a number of compositional techniques to explore and develop the tune in many unexpected ways. Great fun to pla, and certain to delight audiences! Travelin‘ Music was commissioned by the Arkansas Small Band Association, Trey Reely, President, for their 2015 high school honor band.   Doctor Who: Through Space and Time  From the long-running and iconic BBC television series Doctor Who, composer Murray Gold brought a new dimension of dramatic and evocative musical themes dating from 2005 to present. This masterful setting for band features familiar themes for the Doctor, along with the alien monsters Cybermen and Daleks, and also memorable companion themes for Rose and Martha.   Such Small Things From the composer: My favorite moment every morning comes when my 4-month-old daughter, Penelope, wakes up full of smiles and optimism. The title, Such Small Things comes from a StoryPeople print that hangs in her nursery. Brian Andreas's words perfectly capture the anticipation of her arrival into this world.  SUCH SMALL THINGS by BRIAN ANDREAS For a long time, there were only your footprints & laughter in our dreams & even from such small things, we knew we could not wait to love you forever.  X-Factor An X-Factor is a special quality that is essential for success but is difficult to describe. The term can also refer to a variable in a given situation that could have the most significant impact on the outcome. Either way, X Factor is a high-energy piece with often unpredictable twists and turns. Written using both the Dorian and Aeolian (minor) modes, X Factor portrays the mysterious, often difficult to described aspect of an X factor.  Nostalgia The term Nostalgia refers to a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations. This composition, dedicated to the memory of Mason Schultz, incorporates two melodic themes that build to a climatic resolution utilizing the full ensemble. The music is lyrical, joyous, and ultimately hopeful, taking the listener to a place of harmonic bliss. Winds of Change  Winds of Change was commissioned by the Southwestern Oklahoma Band Director’s Association. In recent years, Oklahoma has seen a great increase in the development of wind energy; turbines mark many borders of its horizons, producing energy and change in equal measure. This development in sustainable energy sources and the winds that flow across the great state serve as the inspiration for this work.   The piece begins by depicting the great open spaces that stretch for miles across the Okla-homa landscape. Small gusts of wind (represented by scalar and arpeggiated passages in the mallets and woodwinds) dance across the landscape. The piece picks up pace as the wind races across the land, turning the turbines and charging towards the future.    Thunderbolt Galop Fred K. Huffer was born in the small village of Stewardstown, Illinois in 2879. The family moved to Montana when Huffer was ten, and he studied music with his father, an accom-plished violinist and conductor. He joined the local band at age 16, and four years later moved to Chicago, where he played in bands there. In 1901 he led the band with the W. W. Cole Dog and Pony Show, and later that year joined the Ringling Bros. Circus Band, playing baritone under the baton of George Ganweiller.  After eight years trouping with circus bands, Huffer returned to the Chicago area, where he worked as a bandmaster, composer and arranger. His band works number forty-five, and he published many ar-rangements during his career. Huffer died in 1943.   Thunderbolt Galop was originally published in 1909, just as the composer was finishing his eight-year career as a circus musician. Galops conform to the same form and style of marches, only with a faster tempo, so the usual stylistic rules of marches would apply: notes should be played on the short side (unless otherwise indicated); attacks should be firm; and dynamics exaggerated. Rehearse this gallop at a march tempo to develop tech-nical proficiency; then, increase tempo to suit the abilities of the ensemble. The bass drum and cymbals will play a key role in a successful performance at a gallop tempo.
