Using the musical styles and forms of the Medieval and Renaissance periods, Mike Forbes has written a striking and powerful three movement suite that is a major addition to serious band literature. The music is entirely original, but the style and approach is similar to such pieces as the Courtly Dances from Gloriana by Benjamin Britten, and makes effective use of the coloristic possibilities of the modern concert band.

Made possible by the Chamber Music America Classical Commissioning Program, with generous funding provided by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and the Chamber Music America Endowment Fund, Book of Memory is Lansky's conversation with music from the medieval, renaissance, baroque, classical, romantic, early-modern, and modern periods. These dialogs are sometimes obvious, sometimes not. Written for the Janus Trio, Book of Memory consists of seven movements preceded and connected by short interludes that comprise a setting of a poem by William Blake about memory. The seven main movements can also be performed as a group or individually, without the prelude and interludes.
