£47.50The Good King Rocks - Timothy Johnson
Young band directors are always on the lookout for something new and a little different for the winter concert. Timothy Johnson's new Christmas arrangement for Beginning Bands fits the bill perfectly. It remains technically accessible to the young band while exploring this old familiar tune in new and different ways. You even have the option of including a "set" drummer by using the Optional Percussion 1 Advanced part. Lots of unison rhythms in the Winds ensure that you can prepare The Good King Rocks in time for that winter concert, and there are enjoyable parts for every instrument, which keeps the whole group focused and involved during rehearsal. Fun!

£144.99Shichi-Go-San - Itaru Sakai
In Japan, a traditional festival called "Shichi-Go-San" (Seven-Five-Three) is held on November 15th every year to wish for the wholesome growth of girls aged seven, boys aged five and children aged three. The composer imagined how a seven-year-old sister with five and three-year-old brothers would go through various happenings, have fun visiting a shrine and strengthen their bonds. Reflecting the meaning of its title, Shichi-Go-San uses a lot of irregular time signatures to form a witty and resplendent concert piece.
