This rousing parade processional paints a vivid picture of the Roman gladiators and their entry into the arena. A bold opening statement moves into a more tender middle section before a climactic ending captures the true emotions of the event - from the maniacal excitement of the spectators to the uncertain future of the courageous warriors. Powerful!

Entrance of the Gladiators is a military march composed in 1897 and soon after was also subtitled Thunder and Blazes. It has become a legendary screamer march for circuses to introduce the clowns.The march is in three sections with some very lyrical moments followed by the chromatic break section featuring the low brass. The final trio section is also lyrical and chromatic at the same time. When played as a screamer the tempo is often taken to extremes.Wes Ballenger has done an amazing job of arranging this famous march for a virtuosic Trombone quintet.

Fortune Favors the Bold by David Marlatt is a dynamic and exciting piece that captures the trials, tribulations, and victories in the life of an ancient gladiator. Triumphant fanfares herald him into the great Colosseum as he clashes with many foes. Bravery and skill are what keep him alive. Between battles he is reflective and contemplative. Could this be his final fight? With conviction and courage he rises to meet his next opponent, fighting with all his strength and daring. More fanfares announce his victory, but will this success be the one to grant him his freedom? There are solo opportunities for flute, alto sax, baritone, and bass clarinet. (4:50).
