Waltz in A Flat - Score only - Johannes Brahms
Program NotesJohannes Brahms was born in Hamburg in 1833 but spent much of his working life in Vienna, where he was one of the leading figures in what is generally known as the Romantic period. Such was his significance that he is often referred to as one of the "Three Bs" alongside Bach and Beethoven! His compositions range from piano solos to major works for choir and orchestra and, as a virtuoso pianist, premiered many of his own works. His beautiful Waltz in A-flat Major is an item of repertoire that is familiar to many - even if it's not known by name! Published as one of a set of 16 waltzes for piano (Opus 39:15), it has been transcribed here for wind band by Brian Bowen.

£85.00Rejoice and Sing! (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul
Rejoice and sing! was written in celebration of the 95th birthday of Sir David Willcocks. John Rutter writes: I was delighted to be asked by OUP to compose a new carol in his honour. Writing 'Rejoice and sing!' I recalled the many happy Christmas concerts he conducted with the Bach Choir in London's Royal Albert Hall, thinking also of his fondness for quirky rhythms, hence the lopsided 7/8 which runs through much of the music. This arrangement is written for combined Concert Band and Chorus, but may be performed by band alone. It is compatible with the original version except that it is transposed down by one-half step (semi-tone).

£109.99Rubies (After Thelonious Monk's Ruby, My Dear) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Harbison, John - Martin, Peter Stanley
Composer John Harbison writes: "Rubies is a version of Thelonious Monk's Ruby, My Dear, which he composed while still in his teens. When I was invited by the Seattle Symphony to make a short piece reflecting my first musical passions, my thoughts were of Bach and Monk. Since I had recently made some Bach-like chorale preludes, I chose to make a version of Monk's tune, first in a chamber-musical, contrapuntal manner, then in the grand orchestral style I had always heard lurking there." Duration: 5:30 (Recorded live by the Rutgers Symphony Band - Peter Stanley Martin, guest conductor)

£225.00Prelude and Fugue in C Minor (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Williams, Vaughan - Noble, Paul
Written in 1920-21, the Prelude and Fugue in C Minor was published in 1930, appearing both as an orchestral work and as an organ piece. The ritornello-form first movement calls to mind the Prelude and Fugue in C minor, BWV546 of J S Bach. The fugue is in A-B-A form and based on a subject whose pentatonic outline seems like an augury of gentle pastoralism; but both movements display a gritty, truculent brand of counterpoint that anticipates the dissonance and fury of Vaughan Williams's Symphony No 4 in F minor, the composition of which spanned the years 1931-4. (from notes by Relf Clark, 2009). The power and drama of this piece is captured in this faithful arrangement for Concert Band.
