The Left Coast Quintet performing Entry of the Gladiators, also known as Thunder & Blazes, also known as that tune made popular by the circus acts when they wanted to hype up the audience. This piece was originally composed by Julius Fucik in 1897, and it's a really fun one for the quintet to perform.

"How Does a Moment Last Forever" is a song written by lyricist Tim Rice and composer Alan Menken for the 2017 Disney live-action film Beauty and the Beast, a remake of the animated musical of the same name. This Broadway-inspired ballad is performed in the movie by American actor Kevin Kline in his role as Maurice. It describes the relationship between his character and that of his wife, Belle's deceased mother. Later in the film, Belle (Emma Watson) performs the song as she discovers the truth about her mother's fate.

"Mister Sandman" is a popular song written by Pat Ballard and published in 1954. It was first recorded in May of that year by Vaughn Monroe & his orchestra and later that year by The Chordettes and the Four Aces. The song's lyrics convey a request to "Mr. Sandman" to "bring me a dream" – the traditional association of the folkloric figure, but in this context the meaning of dream is more akin to 'dreamboat'.
