About this Web Site
This site has been designed as a resource site for all music educators.  The information gathered for this web site as well as the construction of the site itself serves as a partial fulfillment of the degree requirements for the Doctorate in Musical Arts Degree in Wind Band Conducting at the University of Missouri, Kansas City. 

The information was taken from the various sources listed on the bibliography page.  Works chosen for this site have been selected originally from the list of small and medium wind ensemble works found in Dr. Jay Gilbert's unpublished doctoral major document entitled,
An Evaluation of Compositions for Wind Band According to Specific Criteria of Serious Artistic Merit; A Replication and Update.  Other works have been added at the author's discretion and preference.  Special thanks to the members of the doctoral committee of Craig Miller, who have taken many hours of their time to critique and evaluate this site. The members ot this committee are:

Professor Gary Hill, Director of Bands
Arizona State University

Dr. Keith Benjamin, Professor of Applied Trumpet
University of Missouri at  Kansas City

Dr. William Everett, Professor of Musicology
University of Missouri at  Kansas City
