Viva Noel is a medley of glorious holiday favorites in a fast/slow/fast form. Opening with a musical fanfare based on the French hymn He is Born the Holy Child the arrangement transitions quickly into a fanciful rendition of Deck the Halls. The following section opens with a beautiful brass choir adaptation of It Came Upon A Midnight Clear and develops into a lush, full band setting of this charming carol. The finale begins as a quick, light version of Here We Come a-Wassailing ending with a declarative brass fanfare with small bits of Bring a Torch, Jeannette Isabella and Angels We Have Hear on High. This high-energy holiday arrangement features all sections of the ensemble with exceptional emphasis on the percussion writing. Viva Noel! will be a solid opener or closer for any holiday concert!

King Arthur was the first of 28 scores Benjamin Britten composed for radio between 1937 and 1947. It was an ambitious dramatization of King Arthur's life and times; part pageant, part play, part cantata; written by D.G. Bridson. This colorful suite incorporates the Introduction, a dramatic Wild Dance, some of the music underscoring the scenes for Galahad and The Holy Grail, and two vivid battle scenes, ending with The Final Battle and Apotheosis. King Arthur (scenes from a radio drama) for brass band should not be confused with a much longer orchestral suite, which Paul Hindmarsh devised from the same source in 1995.
