[edit] Howard Cable works as cornerstone

I don't know any of the three works listed by Howard Cable and have never performed them; however, perhaps they are significant works in Canada and not in the U.S.? Could someone give a more international perspective there? Thanks. --Myke Cuthbert 16:06, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Recent works a bit TOO recent?

I'm a bit skeptical of the works on the "recent works" list dated just in the last two or three years. It strikes me as fanboyism at best, and possible self-promotion at worst. I think five years should probably be about the minimum age to appear on the list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.39.194.5 (talk) 19:30, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, some music on this list is just too new and is completely untested by time. I concur with at least a five year minimum, if not longer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulthomas83 (talk • contribs) 23:09, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rolling Thunder, Colonel Bogey?

Shouldn't Rolling Thunder be listed as a cornerstone work by Fillmore, if not his most performed work? Also, shouldn't Kenneth Alford get some mention as being an important contributor to band literature? I suggest dividing this wiki into two sections: concert band works and marches, because some very important marches are left out of this list that should be here (Valdres and Inglesina are but a few that come to mind)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.33.75.161 (talk) 04:15, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
