This monumental piece for concert/military band works very well for this instrumentation. To balance colours and dynamics, the piccolo trumpet and e-flat trumpet are used to perform the original woodwind parts and 2 cornets, 2 horns and euphonium represent a warm, mellow inner choir. The original writing of Holst has been maintained and the lower three voices can still enjoy the driving bass line.
This piece was written in the thirteenth Century by an unknown composer. It was set as a single melodic line as many Gregorian chants were constructed. Lush, modern harmonies have been added to make it the popular Christmas piece it is today. The first clarinet is the featured player in this arrangement and first states the melody alone. This is to emulate the call and response between a soloist and congregation at a church service found in many denominations. It has been adapted here for 2 flutes and 2 clarinets.
Lyric Essay is written in a neo-romantic style. It is a slow, reflective work with much opportunity for musical expression. It has been arranged for 5 trumpets, 5 flugel horns and optional percussion.

A showpiece for the piccolo trumpet. The soaring coloratura solo has been transposed down a step to facilitate the brass quintet. While the piccolo is playing Fs above high C, the remainder of the ensemble is supporting with avery playable accompaniment that has been reduced from the orchestral part. Although the solo piccolo trumpet (or alternate E-flat trumpet) part is demanding in range, the other parts should not prove to be difficult to coordinate. This classical favourite will amaze audiences and perhaps give them a good introduction to the piccolo trumpet.

This was originally a soprano solo with strings. The solo line has been entwined such that all players get a turn with the melody while the other parts are in a supporting role.
