“Playful Joy” is an original piece for Level 1 Brass Band suitable for concert or contest.

This piece was written in memory of Lyle Lundstrom, Tuba player, most recently, for the Pomona Concert Band, Pomona, California; The Golden State British Brass Band, Southern California; and the La Mirada Symphony, La Mirada, California. A member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, he passed away in 2014.

This march in a minor mode is based on the Lutheran Hymn "Washed in the Blood of the Lamb."  It is a teaching piece for the dotted-eighth sixteenth figure and written for the section 4 band.

“Shawnee Summer” is inspired by themes from Berlioz to Hugo and signifies the role the Shawnee had in the French and Indian War of 1754-1763.

This is a charming “clever” song by German actor/writer/singer/composer, Albert Ellmenreich. The secondary theme is taken from the popular song from the 1950’s, “Round, Round, Round.”

This novelty piece presents two well-known Sunday School songs, "Jesus Loves Me" and "Deep and Wide" in an interesting battle much like a group of young children try to argue on what song to sing.  The introduction and the bridge have an intentional flavor of a famous circus march.

This well-known piece by Claude Debussy is the eighth piece in the composer's first book of Préludes, written between late 1909 and early 1910. Each part has a few notes as possible with the goal of six notes.

This is a well-known waltz which has been used for Circus trapeze acts for many years. It is
originally a Mexican song titled, “Sobre Las Olas” (Over the waves). Although very famous in
Mexico, it received a greater public knowledge when used in the film “The Great Caruso”
(1951). A lovely song with a vocal part included to be sung at the end.

This is a wonderful rendition of the Star Spangled Banner with the Horns taking the lead;  the Trombones the third line;  and finally the Cornets on the last line.  It contains the Damerosh insert and a unique ending as well as unique harmonies.  It is a very lovely piece which can be used in the indoor and outdoor concert.
