The New York Staff Band and USA East Territorial Music Department have launched a new Signature and Heritage series. The Signature series replaces the department’s current Triumphonic Collection and will feature three new titles a year. The Heritage series will consist of re-prints of popular American Band Journal pieces that are out of print and will feature one new title a year. Both series will be released at the beginning of October each year.
Derek Lance, Dorothy Gates and Aaron VanderWeele were on hand at the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain at the Royal Albert Hall for the launch of both series this year. The launch was a great success.
The first titles released are:
Stars and Stripes Forever arr. Dave Wolpe & Dorothy Gates
Heralds of Victory by Richard Holz
All these pieces and more are available for sale at www.music.saconnects.org.
