It’s a Brand New Day: This piece utilizes a technique found in the work of composers such as Boulez and Verese, which is transforming a melody through another melody. I used a simple minor melody and transformed it through a secondary catchy melody. Composed by: Mike Catania Arranged for: L/DS/GC/EB/Set Difficulty: 1.5/5 Price: $20.00 Qty:		Lost: Lost is a song that relies on its stark differences in dynamics to be a powerful and effective piece. No part of the song should sound forced. The opening quarter note pattern in the Bass part can be envisioned as foot steps in a barren place with no one around.

Classical Compositions
Alla Hornpipe : Alla Hornpipe is an arrangement of Handel's notable work.

Composed by: Handel Arranged by: Mike Catania Difficulty: 3/5 Price: $35.00 Qty:		Concerto for Tenor (C) Pan and Orchestra in Three Movements: Three movements showcase not only the lead soloist but the orchestra as well.

Arranged for Solo Tenor and full orchestra. Composed by: Mike Catania Difficulty: 5/5 Price: $65.00 Qty:

Composed by: Mike Catania Difficulty: 3/5 Price: $35.00 Qty:		Flight of the Bumblebee: The key to the success of this piece lies in two areas: The physical dexterity of the soloist and the ability of the band to balance. This is a direct transcription, with a few minor adjustments made to suit the range of the pan. In other transcriptions and recordings, the lead drops out some of the notes in the beginning passages, ruining the continuity of the lines. In this transcription, the notes have been adjusted to keep the soloist playing throughout the piece. Composed by: Mike Catania Arranged for: Solo L- L-DT-DS-G Difficulty: 1 Solo 3 Price: $25.00 Qty:

Composed by: Messian Arranged for: L/DT/DS/G/C/6B Arranged by: Mike Catania Difficulty: 5+/5 Price: $10.00 Qty:
Pavanne: This is an easy arrangement of one of the most beautiful melodies ever composed. This one is great as a change of pace in the middle of a program. Composed by: Faure Arranged by: Bruce Weil Difficulty: 2/5 Price: $20.00 Qty:		Prelude in E minor : Chopin's Prelude in E Minor's delicate arrangement shows the darker, softer side of steel pan music and is appropriate for groups of all skill levels. Perfect for gentler moments at professional gigs. Composed by: Coppin Arranged by: Mike Catania Difficulty: 3 Price: $25.00 Qty:
Trepak: This work from The Nutcracker is sure to be a favorite. Composed by: Peter Illyitch Tschaikowsky Arranged by: Wally Parks Difficulty: 2.5/5 Price: $20.00 Qty:

Composed by: Mike Catania Arranged for: L/DS/GC/EB/Set/Perc Difficulty: 3/5 Price: $25.00 Qty:
Petting Zoo: This must be played with Electric Bass. The parts are challenging. It was inspired by Art Blakey’s version of Caravan and has a straight-up jazz solo section sandwiched between two very Latin sections. Composed by: Mike Catania Arranged for: L/DT/DS/GC/EB/Set/Perc. Difficulty: 4/5 Price: $40.00 Qty:		Rollin: With a walking Bass line, this one is a surprising departure from the usual steel drum repertoire.
