Here is a musical homage to all the tales of otherworldly apparitions that gave everyone goosebumps as a child. The evocative music takes an eerie journey through a series of musical vignettes, each representing a spooky story that might be told around a campfire or when the power goes out. Come listen as we summon up ghosts and spirits, but listeners beware... leave the lights on!

Harvest, an exciting symphonic overture for wind band, evokes the power of persistence.  In order to reap bountifully in harvest time, one must first put faith in a seed, nurture it in abundance, and allow it time to grow and ripen.  While painting the musical picture of a vast, rural American landscape stretching to the horizon, this powerful work for mature bands draws on the influences of 20th Century composers such as Aaron Copland, Leonard Bernstein, and John Williams.

This stunning arrangement brings the wildly popular music of Dvorak to the concert band repertoire. Inspired by the folk music of his native Bohemia, the piece is based on a simple melody that interacts with delicately orchestrated passages and massive, powerful statements. Functional as an opener, closer, or classical work within a program, this work has unlimited potential!
