Whirligigs
This attractive suite of three concise movements depicts various types of “whirligig” contraptions, or “wind-toys” which were popular in Europe as early as the 16th century. Marching Soldier features an optional “marching machine” creating the effect of soldiers on parade, while Flower Lady depicts a figure in constant fluid motion moving up and down while picking flowers. The concluding movement, The Flying Horse, describes a very active whirligig with moving feet and flapping wings. A unique and descriptive programming option for young players.

Whisper to Their Souls (based on “Greensleeves”)
Here is a unique and creative setting of the familiar tune Greensleeves (What Child Is This?) that opens with the melody scored softly for the woodwinds.

While this is certainly effective as a holiday offering, it can be performed as a memorable tone poem any time of the year. Dur: 4:10SKU: HL04002667 -

Wild Rose Jamboree
Wild Rose Jamboree conjures up the pioneer spirit and the big-sky panorama of Alberta, Canada’s heartland. The cinematic approach to the music captures the essence of life in “wild rose country” – famous for its rodeos, warm-hearted people, majestic mountains and wide-open spaces. With a high-spirited hoedown and a rich, reverent theme that features a trumpet solo and a flute/clarinet duet, this composition could be a dynamic show opener or festival piece. Wild Rose Jamboree can be effectively performed by a mixed group (junior band and senior band, for example), the upper parts being at a medium level and the lower parts (flute 2, clarinet 3, alto saxophone 2, trumpet 3, horn 2 and trombone 2) at an easier level.

Designed as an extended fanfare, the piece quickly builds in intensity with each subsequent phrase, and culminates in a fast-paced and brilliant sounding ending flourish. Effective as a concert opener. Dur: 3:15SKU: HL04005054 -
