£93.50Coming Home - Chandler L. Wilson
"Coming Home" is an extraordinary work that delves into the profound emotions tied to returning to one's place of origin after a long absence. Time away is often filled with adventures, challenges, rewards, and a myriad of experiences that shape one's journey, and the act of coming home signifies more than just physical return; it embodies a rush of happiness and anticipation, a reconnection with familiar surroundings, and the comfort of being in a space that feels like one's own. The music captures the essence of finding solace in the familiar, reuniting with loved ones, and enjoying the comforts that home provides. It's a place where one can relax, reflect, and rejuvenate, planting new roots while cherishing the experiences that have led them back. The feeling of coming home is not just about returning to a physical space, but also about reconnecting with oneself and one's sense of belonging. Beautiful and moving!This work is not yet in print. Please check back later to view the conductor score and for purchasing information. In the meantime, please enjoy this recording performed by The Washington Winds, conducted by Edward S. Petersen.

Cradlesong - Larry Barton
This sensitive composition is about emotions that are difficult to verbalize, but that can be expressed with music. It is a beautiful, gentle lullaby inspired by a father putting a newborn child to sleep in the wee hours of the night, but the strength of the climax represents the depth of a parent's feelings. Perfect for that touching moment in any performance!

£58.50Red - R.W. Smith
"Red" is a powerful and energetic work for concert and festival performance. As the first movement from Krisanna's Colors, the suite is inspired by her color choices used to describe her daily emotions and moods. Beginning with somber clarinet solo and choir, the mood quickly changes to bombastic and extreme energy. You may consider programming "Red" (Mvt. 1) along with "Blue" (Mvt. 2) and "Yellow" (Mvt. 3) for even greater effect. An excellent choice for your concert/festival program!

Elegy - Melvin L. Shelton
A touching and intense memoriam piece, the mechanics are on the easy side of Grade 4, but the demand for tone quality and control in tenuto passages and long slurred phrases calls for the best of musicianship from any group. The "Adagio e Rubato" tempo indication invites the kind of wonderfully expressive ensemble playing that should probably make up a larger part of band literature than it does today. Over a quiet unifying heartbeat from the timpani, the band explores the emotions felt after a tragic personal loss. A soaring F Horn solo (cued in Trumpet. and Alto Saxophone) leads poignantly toward a gentle Orchestra Bells and Wind Chime ending.
