£126.50Beating Beats (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan
Beating Beats rhythmically is a rather special piece: more conventional metres are manipulated in such a way that the listener (without score) may be confused and even misled at various points! The 'regular four beat accents in a 4/4 measure for example are often not adhered to, giving the impression of a different metre altogether. However, at the same time it may be that some instruments do follow this "normal" 4/4 metre, thus confusing everyone - performers and listeners alike! On one hand, it is a "simple" piece with very playable and melodic themes, but their mysterious rhythmic makes it not only sound more complicated, but also makes for a greater challenge for both players and the conductor! As is mostly the case with Jan Van der Roost's works, the orchestration is both colourful and contrasting, with every section of the modern wind orchestra used equally. All in all, it's a work full of surprises with some unexpected harmonies and special melodic lines but above all, with metrical and rhythmical sure to catch you unawares! Duration: 7.00

This delightful three-movement suite begins with a bright and bold Fanfare in 4/4 time. The second movement is a poignant lyrical Interlude in 3/4 time which features a trumpet solo. The third movement is a jaunty march in cut time that alternates between major and minor tonalities, giving it a bit of a quirky attitude. Duration: 4.15

£74.99Pasovario (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Laseroms, Wim
The compound title of this work reflects its musical content. 'Vario' refers to the two different meters - 3/4 and 2/4 - in which this paso doble has been written. The compact, powerful opening is in 3/4 time: it is followed by a melodic, cantabile second theme, in the beautiful chalumeau register, in 2/4 time. This refreshing piece sets a great tone for your concert!Duration: 3.10

£44.50Muskoka Landing (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Williams, Mark
Inspired by a trip to the beautiful Muskoka region of Ontario, Canada, this exciting concert and contest overture will inspire your students to achieve new heights of musicianship and have a whole lot of fun at the same time. With a powerful opening, the 4/4 Allegro sets up a rhythmic vamp which is the foundation for a catchy main theme and the development which follows. The music then transitions to a lyric 3/4 Andante con moto which is filled with rich harmonies and counterpoint. A return to the music of the opening plus a brief coda bring the music to its rousing conclusion. Duration: 4.00

£66.95Hawkeye Festival Overture (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Williams, Mark
Hawkeye Festival Overture begins with a bright opening fanfare which leads to a rhythmic Allegro section. An Andante section in 3/4 time features a lyric trumpet solo and numerous harmonic suspensions. A driving percussion interlude in 5/4 with a gradual pyramid that builds in the winds leads to a return of the Allegro. The work ends with a powerful re-statement of the syncopated 5/4 motives and finishes with a flourish. This very appealing work is well-suited for developing concert bands and should provide excellent opportunities for studies in general musicianship, intonation and rhythmic precision. Duration: 4.45
