£440.00The Gift of Life (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul
The Gift of Life was written early in 2015 as a commission to honour a retiring Minister of Music at a church in Dallas, Texas. In planning this piece, John Rutter has stated: In 1985 I had written a Requiem - which, like any Requiem, inevitably reflects on death - why not write the opposite, a work celebrating life? Unlike a Requiem, where a set form of words is laid down in Catholic liturgy, no framework exists for a celebration of life, and I had to choose (and in three cases, write) texts which were appropriate to a theme rarely expressed in music since Haydn's wondrous oratorio The Creation in 1798. The six movements reflect different facets of the miracles of creation and of life. This arrangement is written for combined Concert Band and Chorus, but may be performed by Concert Band alone.

£89.99Valley Montage and Celebration (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Saucedo, Richard L.
This work for advanced band was commissioned by the Tennessee Valley Winds to celebrate the group's 30th anniversary. The piece begins quietly with clarinet solo, then quickly moves to a celebratory section in 12/8 meter. The main melody is stated in many different voices as it steadily builds to a moment of controlled frenzy. A brief lyrical section features an expressive style and also a moment of glory for the entire woodwind choir. The work concludes with a return to the vibrant and enthusiastic flavor of the opening. Powerful and impressive writing for mature groups!Duration: 5:15

£64.95Retriever Reveries (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob
This slightly unusual title reflects the fact that we, the Wiffin family, love Golden Retrievers and have shared our lives with them for the past 25 years or so. As a breed they can look very similar but their characters are, of course, very different. These two contrasting movements, At the Splash with Sim and Barnaby Behaves Badly, highlight just a couple of aspects of life with these faithful and loving companions.
