Band literature about "locations"?

[Mark]

Ron Nelson has a series of "Holiday" compositions for wind ensemble.

[Mark E. Chachich]

Mannin Veen

This is a very nice piece.

[Ken Herrick]

"Tulsa, a Portrait in Oil" for concert band, From the mid 60's. I can't recall who composed it.

[THE TUBA]

First couple that come to mind:

Hammersmith - Holst
La Mezquita de Córdoba - Julie Giroux
La Pequeña Habana - Todd Malicoate (TubeNetter)
"Three Places in the West" series (Zion, Yellowstone Fires, Arches) - Dan Welcher
Sunrise at Angel's Gate - Philip Sparke
Paris Sketches - Martin Ellerby
Suite Française - Darius Milhaud

[Bowerybum]

Homer Lagassey "Sequoia A Tone Painting"

As a side note, he was the brother of Oscar Lagasse, tuba player of the DSO for many years. Yes, Homer spelled his last name with a Y at the end. His son, Homer Jr. was a well known designer for General Motors.

I don't know if Lincolnshire Posy is about Lincolnshire, but it would be close enough in my opinion.

Yosemite Autumn
Autumn on White Lake - Hazo
On The Grand Prairie, Texas - Holsinger
Arlington: Where Giants Lay Sleeping - Buckley
Council Oak - Gillingham

[IOS]

For a tune that is very straightforward:

Yosemite Autumn by Mark Camphouse

[EdFirth]

West Point Symphony, Morton Gould...Eastman Wind Ensemble, Frederick Fennel.It even has a little tuba solo. Great tune. Ed

[Uncle Markie]

Some suggestions:
"George Washington Bridge" William Schumann? Eastman recorded it; played it in college. Not bad.
Haydn Wood's big WW1 hit was "Roses of Picardy" - the original band arrangement is available of bandmusicpdf.org; we used it on our WW1 Commemorative concert (with vocal). Very effective actually.
"Willow Echoes" - Willow Grove Park; "Sounds from the Hudson" - "location" oriented cornet solos.

[Adam C.]

"Huntingtower" - Respighi

[Mark E. Chachich]

Tulsa, a Symphonic Portrait in Oil was composed by Don Gillis.
The suite has four sections. I have played the final section in a professional band, it is a very good piece.

Howard Cable's "Newfoundland Rhapsody" comes to mind. Can't think of any others at the moment.

[iiipopes]

Manhattan Beach march - Sousa
S.I.B.A. (Southern Illinois Band Association) march - R.B. Hall
Pennsylvania Polka - Lee & Manners
Indiana State Band march - Farrar
Invercargill march - Lithgow
Men of Harlech - Traditional

That's all I can think of right now.

Not an ensemble piece ...But "Beautiful Colorado"

There is a youtube video of a young lady playing it for a euphonium recital that is quite well done. Definitely worth a watch!
