Unfolding Horizons by Ethan Kaminsky
..is a musical depiction of a journey around the state of Michigan. Listeners will hear everything from the calm stillness of a glassy lake to powerful surges of waves crashing along the shore. Each section reveals a new “horizon,” a new perspective that builds upon the last, mirroring my experiences at Michigan State and life’s continual journey of change, growth, and renewal.

Unfolding Horizons is written for medium-advanced high school or collegiate wind ensembles.

New for Wind Band
⚾️ Twenty-One by Giovanni Santos
for Grade 5 Wind Ensemble

This piece is "a musical tribute to Roberto Clemente, an athlete whose greatness
extended far beyond the baseball field. While his accomplishments as one of the
game's most extraordinary right fielders and the first Latin American Hall of Famer
are legendary, this work is inspired just as deeply by Clemente's humanity, generosity,
and unwavering commitment to justice and service."

Puzzle Box by Nicholas Bentz
new for Grade 6 Concert Band

Bentz writes, "Some of my earliest memories are of intricate boxes. My father, a furniture maker, often restores antique pieces, and I remember being fascinated by wardrobes and desks that had secret drawers and spaces. These are often only accessible by putting one’s hands in the right spot with the right pressure, a type of haptic code. In writing Puzzle Box, I wanted to create a work that pays homage to these beautifully compact pieces, where one has to explore around an object and test it in various ways until a hidden passageway opens. Puzzle Box was written for the Cabrillo Festival as part of the 2024 Conductors / Composers Workshop and is dedicated to my father. The wind band arrangement of Puzzle Box was commissioned by Kevin Sedatole, Michael Gabriel, and the Michigan
State University Wind Symphony."
