Cowboy Suite Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
In the tripartite 'Cowboy Suite' Alan Laken takes us to the Wild West, the domain of cowboys, indians, trappers and other fortune hunters. Around 1890 the west coast of America was reached, which in effect meant the end of the Wild West. Its stories, however, survived and have been a source of inspiration for many books, films, and, of course, music. Some characters, such as Jesse James, Billy the Kid, and Buffalo Bill are forever linked to these tales. In the 'Cowboy Suite' we first hear the 'Hoedown'. At the end of an exhausting workday the labourers used to lay down their tools, among others the 'hoes' and spontaneously began to play music on the instruments which they then possessed (guitars, fiddles, and banjos) and to dance. After being jolted on the 'Wagon Trail' we reach the third part, the 'Cowboy Roundup'. In this last part it becomes clear that as a cattle driver it is imperative to stay firmly seated in the saddle. As the cattle are rounded up, i.e. driven together, spectacular things happen. 04:45

£70.00WARM-UP FUNDAMENTALS FOR CONCERT BAND - Balmages & Gausline
Warm-up Fundamentals was conceived as a tool for directors to use as part of a daily ensemble routine. It covers important fundamental concepts such as breathing, long tones, interval slurs, articulation, flexibility, chords and chorales. Each section breaks concepts down to their most fundamental elements before integrating them together. This gradual approach to the ensemble warm-up helps extend the practical applications of these exercises well into rehearsals and performances. Each instrument part fits on one folded piece of paper, so it's extremely practical in size and can easily fit inside a folder without issue. These warm-ups are also ideal for guest conducting appearances such as honor bands, where conductors need to achieve a uniform sound in a short amount of time. Topics include: Breathing - Build breath support and lung capacity; Long Tones - Approached with phrasing in mind; Interval Slurs -- Both descending and ascending; Articulation - Designed to promote air flow in addition to clarity and speed; Flexibility - Octave studies for woodwinds and lip slurs for brass; Chorales - Progressive chorales that begin with small interval movement and short phrases to allow focus on sound and intonation; Balance - Focus on section, instrument family and full ensemble; Phrasing - All exercises are designed with ensemble phrasing in mind; Efficient - No big part books! Individual parts easily fit into folders and allow for quick navigation to save rehearsal time; Practical - Ideal for guest conducting appearances; Introductory Text - Discusses each section in detail and provides suggestions
