Composer Chris Brubeck wrote Ghost Walk as part of his BandQuest residency at West Rocks Middle School in Connecticut. The piece combines Brubeck's lifelong experiences with both jazz and classical idioms; creating a work that's as fun to play as it is to hear. The title was inspired by the wedding of Brubeck's son at Gettysburg College; which hosts a “ghost walk;” as well as the minor mode and haunting atmosphere of the piece. Learn more on YouTube!

BandQuest®; an exciting series of new music and accompanying curricula for band; is a program published by the American Composers Forum. The series was started as a response to feedback from music educators that there is a pressing need for new; fresh band music. The heart of this program is new works written by a diverse group of leading American composers who have created challenging pieces that are a true departure from standard middle school repertoire. Every BandQuest project includes a residency component in which the composer works collaboratively with a middle school as they create their new piece.yMany BandQuest pieces are accompanied by an interdisciplinary curriculum designed to assist students as they learn the music and to integrate each piece with non-music studies. Visit www.bandquest.org to learn more about this innovative series; and email bandquest@composersforum.org to request a free downloadable audio catalog.y
