No. 300 Song Arrangement - God Bless America (Irving Berlin arr. William Himes)
Originally written in 1918 and revised twenty years later, this setting was created with audience participation in mind and includes the less well known verse as well as the popular and patriotic chorus.        

No. 301 March - Old Orchard Beach (David Rowsell)
This march was written for the Old Orchard Beach Camp Meeting Band, later known as Crossfire Brass. It includes two songs traditionally used as benedictions at the Camp meetings, 'Give to Jesus Glory' and 'Praise God I'm Saved'. Also included are references to 'O Canada' and 'The Star-Spangled Banner' as a tribute to the dedicated Canadian and American Salvationists who come together each summer to participate in the Old Orchard Beach Camp Meetings.     

No. 302 Hymn Setting - Day by Day (Oscar Ahnfelt arr. Kathryn Opina)
Featuring the tune 'Trust in God', this setting attempts to portray the need for God every day in the Christian's life. 

No. 303 Meditation - Perfect Peace (Erik leidzen arr. Morgan Juel Stavik)
A meditation on Erik Leidzen's song 'Peace, perfect peace'.

No. 304 March - A Day to Stand (Jeremy Smith)
Written in 2010 for the Salvation Army's Rose Parade march competition, this march incorporates the tunes 'This is the day' and 'Stand up for Jesus'.

Although nine instrumentalists may adequately present music in the American Band Journal, the scoring is designed to work equally well or better with a full compliment. For nine brass instrumentalists, two cornetists should be assigned to the 1st cornet part because of the frequent use of divisi, with one 2nd cornet, two horns, two trombones, one euphonium and one tuba completing the minimum group.

Optional parts (for soprano cornet, flugel horn, baritone, bass trombone and percussion) are all included. The music is complete without these parts but their use will greatly enhance the performance, as long as the fundamental parts are covered. A free set of transposed parts in F and C (treble/bass clef) is available on request.
