Marching Band Stand & Pep Collections

Teachers keep returning to Mike Story's Championship Sports Pak series, particularly the C Flute/C Piccolo Book and B-flat Clarinet Book, which have become standards for marching ensembles building their season libraries. Victor López contributes a substantial catalog here, with The Best of Shorties, Volume 2: B-flat Clarinet Book gaining steady adoption among directors looking for shorter, manageable pieces. The All-Star Sports Pak series also provides popular alternatives when you want proven arrangements without reaching for the same titles as every other program.

Mike Story has built a reputation for creating practical, performance-ready material for marching band contexts. With 95 titles in this collection and consistent top sellers like Championship Sports Pak across multiple instrumental books, Story understands what busy directors need: accessible charts that ensemble members can learn quickly and perform with confidence.

Victor López brings prolific arranging experience to this collection with 108 titles, drawing strong teacher adoption for The Best of Shorties series. His work focuses on short, efficient pieces that fit naturally into stand time and sectional rehearsals.

Ralph Ford combines 29 years of university teaching experience with professional work in broadcast and media, giving him deep insight into what makes arrangements work for student musicians. His contributions to The ULTIMATE Collection for Marching and Pep Band reflect that blend of pedagogical understanding and real-world performance know-how.
