Along the Weser, as the title suggests, is an homage to the river Weser, the beautiful waterway that meanders through Northern Germany. With its exuberant rhythms and lyrical melodic lines, the work mirrors the strong bond between the inhabitants of the region and the river itself. The connecting thread is the melody of the well-known 'An der Weser', composed by Gustav Pressel to lyrics by Franz von Dingelstedt, which has been incorporated in three different ways.

Alpha Squadron (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hillis, Greg

Powerful unisons open this piece and continue as the trumpets state the heroic melody. A countermelody is then placed over this in the woodwinds. Alternating between marcato and legato sections, this is a good piece for teaching contrasting styles. Students will love the minor key and the power of playing tutti. A great opener for your autumn concert.Duration: 2.00

Alphamonic Overture (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Yagisawa, Satoshi

Alphamonic Overture is an opening piece that serves equally well at other points in a concert programme. This unique work is based on the syllables of the name of the orchestra: just as Ravel once wrote a piece using the letters of Haydn's name, Satoshi Yagisawa transformed 'Alphamonic' into 'la-mi-si-la-la-fa-la-so-ti-do' and employed this note row into the basis for the entire composition.Duration: 8:15
