£48.95Wind Storm (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - O'Reilly, John
In early December 2011, a powerful wind storm passed through Southern California, leaving thousands without electricity and severe damage to many mature trees. Written during this event, this piece uses sharply syncopated rhythms, the key of C minor and prominent percussion to convey the mood that prevailed during the storm. As is always the case, calm, clear weather returned and the lyrical slow section in E-flat major brings that to mind.Duration: 3:45

£45.95Maritime March (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - O'Reilly, John
Maritime March is a jaunty British-style march opening up in the key of C natural minor (Aeolian mode). Sixteenth notes combined with simple syncopations highlight the second strain in a question-and-answer section that pits the woodwinds against the brass. The traditional trio moves to the key of E-flat and features the low clarinets in unison with the French horns. This is a very appealing march that will be easy to put together and really make your young band shine.Duration: 2.30

£41.50Pico Rivera (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - O'Reilly, John
Solo claves usher in the authentic Latin percussion section that sets the style for Pico Rivera. A simple but effective bass line joins the percussion section in establishing an interesting accompaniment for the syncopated melody that follows. Rich harmonies that utilize a variety of seventh chords dominate the second theme and the "stop time" percussion fills that open the coda. A brief modulation brings us to a restatement of the opening melody with a new countermelody in the trumpets and horns.Duration: 3.10

£79.50Montana Visions (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - O'Reilly, John
Montana Visions is a three movement suite that musically depicts cowboy life in Big Sky country. The piece opens with Cattle Drive, a syncopated and energetic representation of cowboys as they dance their synchronised ballet of guiding their herd to its final destination. At the end of the day, Campfire provides moments of reflections as the embers glow and smoke rises to meet the blazing stars of the Big Sky. A spirited Big Sky Rendezvous brings the piece to a rousing conclusion as the cowboys, fur trappers, and native people meet at the end of the journey to let off some steam in a glorious mix of business and bedlam.Duration 9:30
