Transcribed from the notorious Russian composer, Anton Stepanovich Arensky, this overture to his ballet suite is reminiscent of his predominantly romantic and classical repertoire. Scored with vivid colors and timbres for concert band, this charming work will be well received as a concert or contest work. (6:30).

UPC: 196288219101. 6.75x10.5x0.036 inches.
The pieces contained in Arensky's Three Quartets, Opus 57 are quaint and accessible. These editions contain transliterations of the Russian (along with pronunciation guide), and an English translation which intentionally is more to the essence of the original poetry and a truer translation, rather than forcing a rhyme scheme at the expense of the integrity of the original text. The expressive imagery, with colorful depictions of nature and the stars, is heightened by the lyric solo cello. From soaring lines reflecting the mountains in “Serenada,” to the use of the cello's upper register in “To the Extinguished Stars,” to the running sixteenth notes mimicking “The Boiling Hot Spring,” the cello does not play a mere accompaniment role. The pieces can be performed together or individually, a cappella in the absence of a cellist. However, employing the solo cello gives the performer and the listener the full visual and aural range of the expressive quality of these choral gems.

Experience the brutal energy of the Roman Colosseum in this larger-than-life work by Timothy Loest. Heart-pounding drums and sword-clashing sound effects tell the heroic story of St. Telemachus, a frail monk whose bravery brought the gladiatorial games to an end. Exhilarating and epic, The Last Gladiator will absolutely be a student and audience favorite! (1:00).

Originally written for piano, this work translates well for young bands. Written in 3/4, but intended to be performed in a bouncy one, its light texture, melodic contour, and playful nature will be an outstanding addition to any contest or festival program. (3:00).
