All the soloists ornaments have been carefully notated as they appear on the CD. |

Duration: 3:05 |
| For years, trumpet players have aligned themselves with solo singers, especially sopranos, to perform the great Baroque repertoire for trumpet and voice. Organ reductions were created to replace the string parts making this great pairing more portable. Now these terrific trumpet and voice duets can be played by a standard brass quintet. The solo trumpet part remains the same (also allowing for performance on natural trumpet) and the remainder of the quintet performs the string parts. The 2nd trumpet performs on flugel horn to create a greater cohesion within the ensemble allowing for the bright piccolo (or natural) trumpet sound to float above the ensemble in duet with the soprano. |

| For years, trumpet players have aligned themselves with solo singers, especially sopranos, to perform the great Baroque repertoire for trumpet and voice. Organ reductions were created to replace the string parts making this great pairing more portable. Now these terrific trumpet and voice duets can be played by a standard brass quintet. The solo trumpet part remains the same (also allowing for performance on natural trumpet) and the remainder of the quintet performs the string parts. The 2nd trumpet performs on flugel horn to create a greater cohesion within the ensemble allowing for the bright piccolo (or natural) trumpet sound to float above the ensemble in duet with the soprano. |

Brass Quintet |
| BQ965 |
Price: $15.00 |
Duration: 5:20 |
| Originally a popular organ solo, this voluntary is a great addition to the standard quintet repertoire. There is a short chorale prelude played by the ensemble without the solo trumpet then the soloist enters playing a very tuneful and grand piece. The work can be performed without the prelude or the prelude can be played as a piece by itself. None of the parts are too difficult but all have interesting parts with some written ornaments by the arranger to make it all the more fun. The solo part is playable by a good high school player or by a university/professional on E-flat trumpet. This is a great wedding piece that is sure to delight and will take advantage of the acoustics of a church. |

8 Trumpets, Organ and Timpani |
| TE2274 |
Price: $20.00 |
Duration: 4:25 |
| Originally this work was scored for 8 natural or Baroque trumpets, timpani and basso continuo. Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber wrote this piece for choirs of trumpets that were instructed to stand separate to make the best use of the antiphonal effect. This piece was intended for natural trumpets (in C). This arrangement has altered some pitches to allow for better performance on modern trumpets (notes are included that are impossible to play on a natural instrument). There are organ cues in Trumpets 3,4 and 7,8 to allow this piece to be performed without an organ. There must be a bass trumpet (baritone or bassoon) playing to provide the crucial bass line. Also provided in this edition are optional organ and bass trumpet parts in several keys to allow this work to be performed in Bb, C or D. This allows for greater flexibility of performing opportunities ranging from B-flat trumpets to Piccolo and D trumpets in the brilliant key of D. |

| This spectacular piece, commissioned by the Markham District High School Wind Symphony, Bill Thomas conductor, is a large-scale dramatic work for concert band. Chromatic harmonies and dissonant intervals create tension and excitement. Mr. Coakley's brilliant writing for the many band pieces he has done has reached a pinnacle with this new composition. Sonics is around 12 minutes in length and touches on a variety of compositional techniques. Within the sonata-allegro form themes are introduced and developed throughout the ensemble. Contrapuntal elements as well as many meter changes (7/8, 5/8) keeps the pace of the piece quick and energetic. This is a monumental addition to concert band literature and will quickly find it's place with other Grade 6 level band pieces. The composer describes this work as "acidy" and that term seems to best capture the mood of the piece. Sonics is a very difficult work that would prove to be a challenge for a university/college level ensemble. Professional bands may also consider this piece because of the virtuosity that is required from all players. |

| For years, trumpet players have aligned themselves with solo singers, especially sopranos, to perform the great Baroque repertoire for trumpet and voice. Organ reductions were created to replace the string parts making this great pairing more portable. Now these terrific trumpet and voice duets can be played by a standard brass quintet. The solo trumpet part remains the same (also allowing for performance on natural trumpet) and the remainder of the quintet performs the string parts.

Two Early Canadian Marches |

| These two marches are the oldest extant secular music composed in Canada. The Royal Fusiliers Arrival at Quebec was written in honour of the arrival of the newest regiment from England and its commanding officer. An inscription on the manuscript of the Marche de Normandie identifies Charles Voyer de Poligny dArgenson as the composer of that work, and from the available evidence it seems likely that both marches were written by the same person. They are arranged for a woodwind ensemble consisting of piccolo, flute, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 horns and 2 bassoons. |

| This is a huge work arranged for brass band. The original was scored for a concert band with antiphonal trumpet fanfares and a massive sound. This same grand concept has been written into this version. Melody is found throughout the ensemble and all parts are both technically and musically challenging. This is an 11 minute work that contains huge dynamic contrasts and varying sections. The beautiful lyric melody has been given to the euphonium and this section also contains light, cup-muted cornet parts imitating the sound of angels. This is contrasted by a section of brilliant military-style fanfares from the cornets. This is a thrill to both play and listen to. |

This arrangement is for Jens Lindemann and has been recorded (with piano accompaniment) on his CD Flying Solo which is available on the Marquis Classics label. |

| The pieces in Fanfare and Procession are taken from the works of two of Englands master composers. The opening fanfare and first part of the processional are taken from Elgars Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1. In contrast, the latter portion of the present arrangement is arranged from Byrds The Earle of Oxford's Marche. These two contrasting pieces were paired together to provide a lengthy, continuous march for use in ceremonial occasions. Through the use of a D.S., the piece can be performed as an ongoing loop, and the piece is scored (for 4 trumpets, 2 horns, 2 trombones, baritone and tuba) with adequate rest in all 10 parts to allow for long processionals even after performing a lengthy prelude. |

Duration: 2:50 |
| The intent of this piece is every drummers dream to just groove and have fun doing it. The entire piece is played on an assortment of buckets and garbage cans (both metal and plastic). Parts can be easily doubled if desired. As well, there is the serious moment of the playful rendering of O Canada near the end on kazoos. Any song can be inserted at that point (as long as it is a piece that is normally taken seriously or is high brow). This is scored for an ensemble of at least 8 players. |

Duration: 2:20 |
| The simple setting of this well known tune was done in my first year of working with the percussion ensemble at a Junior High School. I had quite a few problems finding music suitable for their level of development, so I wrote a simple arrangement for them for the Holiday Season. We were lucky enough to have an Elementary School as a feeder school that had hand bells, so the optional hand bell introduction was written. It is arranged for 2 Bells parts, Chimes and percussion. |

| Cookin With Cheese pokes fun at poorly produced TV cooking shows. It starts with a video of a cooking show (as lame as possible, please), is later interrupted by putting a mini-bag of popcorn in a microwave and starting it; the piece then continues until the musicians break into reciting recipes, and finishes with the reoccurring percussion break (and eating the finished popcorn on stage). |

Price: $25.00 |
Duration: 3:30 |
| It is intended that the piece be performed with the marimba quartet on stage (four players on two marimbas) and the vibraphone in the audience (center or back of hall preferred). The piece will therefore allow the audience to experience the interaction between the cell based groove on stage with the lyrical-ish melody in the audience and will sound different depending on where they sit in the hall. Very effective! |

This is a lush and beautiful ballad and with the trumpeters on flugels and well balanced ensemble playing, this is a sure crowd pleaser. |

Price: $12.00 |
Duration: 4:10 |
| Miles, as the name implies, is inspired by the improvisations and compositional style of Miles Davis during his modal period. With one masked exception, none of the themes presented here are taken from Miles Davis recordings. Instead, the piece is constructed (like Miles solos) around clearly defined rhythmic and melodic motives. This piece requires a good deal of rhythmic independence from players and each person is featured in short solo and lead roles at various points throughout the piece. Range considerations in the piece are minimal to facilitate performances by trumpeters at the high school, collegiate or professional levels. |

Sonata for 2 Trumpets and Brass |

| Petronio Franceschini |
Brass Quintet |
| BQ26232 |
Price: $20.00 |
Duration: 6:15 |
| All music originally written for the natural trumpet (a trumpet with no valves) has a true "sameness" about it because of the limited notes the instrument could play. Franceschini has used many of the less commonly used notes available to the trumpet's harmonic series and, as a result, has created a more interesting harmonic palette for the instruments involved. This arrangement could feature the trumpet players on natural trumpets or piccolos. |

Sonata Piano e Forte |

Brass Choir (3.0.2.2.1) |
| BC2968 |
Price: $25.00 |
Duration: 4:45 |
| This well-known sonata by Gabrieli has been performed and recorded by many brass ensembles. This arrangement utilizes the idea of Renaissance consorts. While modern brass instruments are not generally used in true consorts, one can group instruments according to bore shape thus approximating a consort. To that end, the first choir uses cylindrical instruments (2 trumpets and 2 trombones) while the second uses conical instruments (flugelhorn, 2 euphoniums and tuba). This will yield a well-balanced and blended sound within each choir while allowing the listener to follow the performers through the contrasting timbres of the two choirs. |

| On your mark…get set...ROTATE! Wait, what? That’s right, ROTATE! In this piece percussionists physically move to other positions on stage to play different instruments (and try to stay in the right place musically). The Vibraphone player moves to play Bells, Xylophone to Timpani, Congas to Cymbals. As if the concept of players and mallets-in-motion isn’t challenging enough, the time signature constantly changes. Unless executed with precision, this piece could turn into one giant KERFUFFLE! |

| To call this madrigal chromatic is a drastic understatement. This piece is very striking in its use of chromaticism. All the typical staggered entrances and polyphonic writing found in most madrigals are contained in this piece. The chromaticism takes this work and creates a sound that we may attribute to a composition in the Twentieth Century rather than one from 1611. |

Hallelujah from Messiah |

| George Frederic Handel |
Brass Band |
| BB2112 |
Price: $35.00 |
Duration: 4:30 |
| Handel's most frequently performed and most famous oratorio is probably best known for the famous Hallelujah. The Hallelujah is the grand chorus that caused the King to rise from his seat and as all good subjects, the entire audience rose with him. This tradition holds true even today reminding us of the great beginnings of this powerful music. This arrangement has been lowered a tone from the original into C concert. The treatment of the Solo Cornet part is quite different here. To allow for a clearer, more balanced line, the Solo Cornet part has been split into 4. This allows for independent playing as well as doubling when necessary. |

The solo trumpet part remains the same (also allowing for performance on natural trumpet) and the remainder of the quintet performs the string parts. The 2nd trumpet performs on flugel horn to create a greater cohesion within the ensemble allowing for the bright piccolo (or natural) trumpet sound to float above the ensemble in duet with the soprano. |

Messiah Suite (10 movements) |
Difficulty: Difficult |

Brass Quintet |
| BQmc |
Price: $100.00 |
Duration: 0:00 |
| The premise of this set of transcriptions was to provide a substantial suite of pieces from Handel's Messiah for the performing brass quintet. The difficulty in the various pieces range from quite easy, which a high school ensemble could play with little rehearsal, to fairly difficult, which could challenge a professional, working quintet. Piccolo and E-flat trumpets are used extensively and the range and technical demands on all players makes for interesting and challenging parts. There have been selected movements that are features for 1 (or more instruments). Each member in the ensemble has at least 1 movement that is their solo and this allows all the talents in a group to be displayed. After a quick glance over the list of 10 pieces one quickly notices that the famous Hallelujah! is not among them. This has been done intentionally. There are many renditions of this chorus already at a brass player's disposal, so any of those arrangements would help to augment this suite. |

| Keefer Quickstep (Keefer being the nickname given to the composers son Keith) was written in the style of the many quickstep marches contained in the American Brass Band Journals from the time of the American Civil War era. With its flashy runs and up tempo, up beat persona, it is the perfect complement to any festive occasion and/or celebration. |

Mystic Runes of Raak |
Difficulty: Grade 1.5 |
| Kevin Kaisershot |
Concert Band |
| CB28135 |
Price: $45.00 |
Duration: 3:00 |
| Buried deep in the TIHEK valley for almost a thousand years were the runes of an ancient people known as the RAAK. These runes were of mythological importance as they showed in great detail much of the tribal life that occurred. The opening section is a description of explorers sifting through the dense jungle valley in search of a lost civilization. They make their discovery and find that music/dancing was a large part of tribal life both as a ritual and as a means to celebrate. While celebrating their find, the explorers determine that it would be wrong to disturb the site and thus retreat similarly back out of the valley leaving behind the Mystic Runes of Raak. |

La Forza Scura - The Dark Force |
Difficulty: Grade 1.5 |
| Kevin Kaisershot |
Concert Band |
| CB28136 |
Price: $45.00 |
Duration: 3:10 |
| La Forza Scura is a follow-up to an overture I wrote a number of years ago entitled Black Tower Overture. Those familiar with that work will at once notice the similarities. La Forza Scura however, was designed to be accessible to less experienced bands while still retaining the sinister undertone of its big brother. Once again the sounds portraying rugged landscapes and fierce battles are found in the Allegro portions of the piece while the sounds of despair and yet glimmers of hope are found in the Andante. In any event, it is a FORCE to be reckoned with. |

Duration: 2:10 |
| Scherzo Diabolique is a diabolical display of notes and rhythms designed to showcase the technical skills of the trio who performs it. It is a relentless foray into a facile-fingered fold. While initially sounding sinister, it takes on a light-hearted respite during the oasis that is the relative major. Not to be outdone, the diabolical nature returns with a vengeance to send this piece to its furious conclusion. The piece is dedicated to Mary Kay Godfrey, who provided the materials necessary to complete this composition. |

Difficulty: Grade 1.5 |
| Kevin Kaisershot |
Concert Band |
| CB18346 |
Price: $55.00 |
Duration: 3:05 |
| A warlock is a male who practices witchcraft. This little tonal caricature seeks to musically portray this enigmatic character in a somewhat less than frightening way. The tri-tone and its usage in the Middle Ages was forbidden, but today has become more associated with its rather devious sound and pops up every so often in music of that nature. The opening is that of the shroud of mystery surrounding the character. The main body of the piece is the swirling cone of energy that the character possesses and the waltz section is a dance related section containing a bit of devious comic relief. |
