Cartoon by Paul Hart This is a great piece of music and what you're hearing here is an arrangement that we made for the FCHS Marching Tigers' competition show in 2003. O.K. it was crazy but we had a great time playing around with this show and the music was fun! This is our complete marching band in a recording session at the end of the season. Try not to judge it too harshly there were about 200 students playing here.

To Tame the Perilous Skies by David Holsinger performed at the GMEA District VI Large Group Performance Evaluation in March 2005. After performing at the GMEA Convention at the end of January, we sightread this and began working on it in February. This is the result of about five weeks of work by the Fayette County students. There are mistakes, but they did a great job for working on it five weeks.
Tocatta by Girolamo Frescobaldi performed by the Fayette County HS Symphonic Band (the 2nd band at FCHS) for GMEA LGPE in March, 2005. This is a great teaching piece if you can get a copy of it. While it probably isn't by Frescobaldi, it is still a good selection for teaching Baroque Period music.
