Check out the best-selling titles in this valuable series:
The Spirit of an Eagle by Larry Clark, Grade 2.5
This is one of Larry Clark’s most successful and performed pieces. It is a standard overture with a glorious slower B section.
Courage by Harold Bennett/arr. Larry Clark, Grade 2.5
“Courage” march is one of the most popular of the Harold Bennett marches. Tuneful and very fun to play, it will make every band sound their best, and is a good choice for smaller groups.
Visigoths by Sean O’Loughlin, Grade 2.5
One of Sean O’Loughlin’s most successful pieces, the Flexible Performance Series arrangement can be performed with as few as five players and percussion. This bold and aggressive piece will make any band sound good.
