South of the Border is a colorful five-movement suite featuring a Bossa Nova, Samba, Tango and other musical treats inherent of Latin American dances. This original work is designed to be played in its entirety, though single movements can be performed, with success, as well. The woodwind and brass parts are more challenging than the string parts.

Rhythmically exciting and fun, this exhilarating holiday selection by Linda Spevacek reflects the music of the Andes and Pampas regions of South America. Even though it is written in a minor key--like much of the music from these regions--this piece is happy, joyful, and sure to add that festive Latin American spirit to your holiday concert.

Notes The Teton Range is part of the Rocky Mountain chain just east of the Idaho border and south of Yellowstone National Park. The name of this majestic range has its roots in the Shoshone teewinet, meaning many pinnacles. Performance Suggestions: The opening measures of The Grand Tetons should be played broadly and majestically. At m. 14, the tempo is indicated at q = 132 and is introduced by a light snare drum figure. The low brass figures at m.18 are to be played softly and broadly in contrast to the lighter and slightly louder high woodwinds. This entire section builds to a climax at m.44. Note the dynamic contrasts in the mixed meter section after m. 53. at 67, the trombone and horn figures should be evident but not overbearing against the lightly played trumpet solo. The 2 measure mixed meter (6/8) (3/4) theme introduced at m.88 should be performed by exaggerating the dotted 8th-16th rhythm, thereby creating a slight swing and dance-like feeling. At m.109, the 8th notes become even and the theme more strident and energetic, with the ritard returning Tetons to the opening theme at m.129.Notes The Teton Range is part of the Rocky Mountain chain just east of the Idaho border and south of Yellowstone National Park.

Mountain Beauty was written for the Greenville, South Carolina Concert Band and portrays the mountains along the North and South Carolina border.The opening section is played in a steady allegro with attention to proper dynamics and articulations. At m. 13 the legato melody contrasts with the rhythmic accompaniment. The slower middle section lets the ensemble focus on tone quality and phrasing. The final section should build to a glorious ending.
