Teachers return often to The Cars: Guitar Anthology Series for authentic TAB transcriptions and Kevin Kaisershot's Scherzo Diabolique for three trumpets. Dan Austin's Gentle Snow and François-Olivier Fortin's Saqqara (Grade 1.5 concert band) are solid choices for developing ensembles. David Marlatt's Trios for All Occasions gives trombone players rewarding material at medium level.

Ryan Meeboer added three new brass works: The Intrepid and The Gods of Egypt as full brass choirs, and The Final Descent as a brass quintet. David Marlatt's Shaped by Time offers a new woodwind ensemble option, while his Percussion Break brings solo percussion into the concert band setting.

David Marlatt writes across multiple ensemble types with a practical sense of what players need. His Variations on Blue Bells of Scotland combines accessible melody with keyboard collaboration, while his newer pieces like Shaped by Time and Percussion Break show range in instrumentation and concept.

Ryan Meeboer specializes in flexible and brass ensemble writing. Western Fair demonstrates his gift for interchangeable voicing, and his recent output (The Intrepid, The Gods of Egypt, The Final Descent) shows a sustained focus on brass choirs and quintets as core ensemble types.

Kevin Kaisershot's Scherzo Diabolique has found an audience among trumpet teachers looking for medium-level material with character. Moments Majestique extends his clarinet writing to pair duets with keyboard support.
