"New World Symphony"--Grade Three

The music of Dvorak adapts very well for
marching band and makes for a very exciting

more challenging than some of our other
shows, but you may find that it is well worth
the extra effort to bring a classical music show

"Master of Illusion"--Grade Two

The idea for this show is based on a magician and
tricks in his magic act.  It is very mysterious and
at times sounds like the background music to a
Las Vegas style magic show.  The first big "trick"
is "sawing a person in half" followed by the very
mysterious "Levitation".  The show concludes
with an exciting "Disappearing Act" for the grand
finale.

"Rock Phases"--Grade Two

This is a driving contemporary rock show
that your kids will love and maybe have your
entire audience dancing!  This is all original
music, but there are influences of Van Halen,
Nickelback, Aerosmith, Motown, etc.  After
a rockin' percussion intro, we open up with
an exciting "Rock Fanfare".  There is a
half-tempo middle section with a bluesy
melody.  The low brass will have the fans
clapping along on their feature section.  Next,
we move into a beautiful "Rock Ballad"  that
can feature your flute soloist.  Then, we get a
real groove going with "Funky Munky"!  You
can't sit still to da' funk!  We close with a
driving "Rock Finale" that is guaranteed to
rock the house down!  Your students and fans
will love this rock spectacular!

"Phoenix Rising"--Grade Two

This show was commissioned by a band that
had lost their school in a disastrous fire.  The
show is designed to capture the spirit of the
community and their drive to rebuild and
overcome adversity.  We open with "The
Spirit Within", and up-tempo opener with a
slight western feel that represents the spirit
of the community.  The next section is
entitled "Fire and Devastation" and
represents the tragic fire that destroyed the
school.  This seques into "A time for
Mourning", a slower and sadder section.  
However, we hear the heart still beating and
we gradually build into the next section
entitled "Rebirth and Celebration".  We
conclude with "The Spirit Lives On" as the
show ends with a finale of powerful chords.  
This show is very playable by young bands.  
We all have to learn to deal with adversity in
our lives.  Perhaps you can adapt this show
to your own unique situation and make it an
inspiration to your students and community
with your own "Phoenix Rising".
