Confluence (Concert Band - Score and Parts)

"Confluence" conveys the majesty and power of converging rivers while using just the first six notes taught in most band methods. Bringing together two distinct melodic ideas over powerful harmonic rhythms, "Confluence" is a mature-sounding work that is very accessible for your beginning band. The flowing middle section gives each instrument group a chance to shine before both themes return for a final, mighty "Confluence."

Confrontations (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Bullock, Jack

Defined, "to oppose a challenge or standing in the way of opposition." In general usage it insinuates that this can likely be resolved and is not as serious as a "fight" or "war." In this music, the composer suggests that a confrontation could be described as a non-harmonic discord which is quickly changed to a pleasing resolution. Energetic percussion contributions enhance this bold contemporary composition.Duration: 5.00

Conga del Fuego Nuevo (Concert Band - Parts only) - Marquez, Arturo - Nickel, Oliver

Score available separately.Following on the success of Arturo Marquez's Danzon No.2 adapted for band, Oliver Nickel's transcription of Conga del Fuego Nuevo (Conga of New Fire) gives an added kick to the concert band repertoire. In contrast to the elegant, sinuous Danzon, Conga is an up-tempo, celebratory piece, bright and catchy, with the percussion section providing the signature kick at the end of the conga pattern. Marquez slows things down in the middle section to spotlight the 1st trumpet in a melody that recalls the mariachi tradition. The alto saxes pick it up and relax into a ritard, only to be interrupted by the return of the opening material. The piece ends in fiery fashion.Duration: 5:00

Congestion Charge (from New London Pictures) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hess, Nigel

As with all modern cities, London is over-crowded with motor vehicles. London is the first major city in Europe to adopt a 'Congestion Charge', and this piece (with its stop and go traffic lights) is both racy and comical. Here are Londoners attempting to go about their business in the face of overwhelming odds..... This piece is the final movement Nigel Hess' 'New London Pictures' which represents elements of London in the 21st Century.Duration: 7.00

Conquest (Concert Band - Score and Parts)

A true "contest" style piece for the beginning band that uses limited note and rhythm resources, but is very creatively written. Your youngest students will feel like they are playing serious music, as the piece is bold, aggressive and sounds more difficult than it plays. This is the type of exceptional music you have come to expect from two of the most popular composers of beginning band music. This piece is correlated to The Yamaha Advantage band method book 1, but can be used with any band program of study.
