Chorus and March (See, the Conquering Hero Comes! from Judas Maccabaeus) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Handel, George Frideric - Sparke, Philip

Handel's oratorio Judas Maccabaeus was composed in a period of not much more than a month in 1746. As with the famous Messiah, use was made of previously composed material and indeed See, the Conquering Hero Comes! was grafted from another oratorio about Joshua. This arrangement of See the conquering Hero Comes will bring a great sense of ceremony to any concert.Duration: 2:30

Composed as a memorial piece, the music evolves from the initial angels' song, their journey to heaven, and their return to comfort those who mourn. The voice parts (performed on a synthesizer or by real voices) add an ethereal quality to this wonderful work.Duration: 6:30

Christ is the Morning Star (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

Christ is the morning star is sheer beauty in its simplicity and message. Whether performing this arrangement with or without a chorus, the beauty remains. The choral part is included in the score as reference, but is not included in the set. Choral parts may be purchased through Oxford University Press or their affiliates. The arrangement is written so that it is playable without a chorus. This piece brings John Rutter's music to everyone because it is technically not demanding. There are sufficient doubling of parts so that even the smallest ensemble can experience the music and bring its lovely essence to an appreciative audience.
