Robert W. Smith writes some great music, but he tends to repeat the same rhythms, and his songs sound a lot a like. Other than that his songs are pretty good. October, by Eric Whitacre is really good.

To Tame the Perilous Skies is an awesome piece, one of Holsinger's best. However, I think I'd rank it as my third favorite, behind Liturgical Dances and the truly awesome and vastly under-performed The Armies of the Omnipresent Otserf.
What? No Ballet Sacra or In the Spring, At the Time When Kings Go Off To War?one of the best concert band pieces was "To Tame the Perilous Skies" with crazy solos from almost every section

Try these pieces -
Rick Kirby's "Of Banners Golden" - a piece with variations of "Minstrel Boy."
David Maslanka's "Morning Star" - triplets up the wazoo!
John Zdechlik's "Celebrations"
