Composed by Chisham. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR336). Score and set of parts. Composed 2005. Duration 3 minutes, 13 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-3442-00. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-3442-00).

A delightful concert piece in rondo form for middle school bands which is built on a modal melody. Chisham develops this tuneful theme through a number of variations which build to a rousing finish. Excellent teaching material that will demonstrate to younger students how a single motive can be developed into a strong musical statement. Includes lots of percussion parts to keep all your drummers involved and interested. A superior choice for almost any young band performance including contests. An exceptionally nice composition for this grade level! Very highly recommended!
