£110.00Investiture Dances (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hoddinott, Alun - Noble, Paul
These dances were written to commemorate the Investiture of Prince Charles as Prince of Wales, at Caernarfon Castle, in July 1969. Written to a commission from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (who premiered this work on 22 June 1969), the Investiture Dances are based on characteristics of Welsh folk music rather than specific pre-existing tunes. Band directors will find the Investiture Dances to be completely idiomatic of the Concert Band, with the music appropriate for concert and festival performance. The arrangement offers consistent performance requirements for all sections of the band, with exciting percussion interest. Each movement is based on the mixolydian mode, and are in a key compatible to wind instruments.

Intended to ignite the imagination, this piece encourages players to tell a story with their instrument and wonder what else may lie ahead in the future, Beyond?

£73.50Alarums, Opus 27 (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Mailman, Martin
Martin Mailman (1932-2000) composed "Alarums for Band, Op. 27" in 1962 in Greenville, North Carolina. The word "alarum" means a "call to arms." The piece was originally titled "Overture for Band" and was later changed to "Alarums for Band" sometime between its completion in 1962 and publication in 1969 with John Barnes Chance, Mailman's colleague and friend, probably suggesting the change in title sometime during this period. Bold and commanding, a cherished addition to the Belwin Classic Band series. Durtion: 6.00
