£121.00In Memoriam - Johan Halvorsen
Johan Halvorsens In Memoriam, Opus 30 was written for the great Norwegian poet Bjornstjerne Bjornson. The two men became very close friends and Halvorsen composed a funeral march in Bjornsons honor upon his death in 1910. The musics link with Bjornson is underscored by the fact that it opens with a paraphrase of the Norwegian national anthem. At the peak, it suddenly falls away, and following a roll of the timpani, the anthem is played in its entirety. Vocal parts sung by members of the ensemble contribute to the overall effect and make this a most memorable and moving work.

£82.50Corridors Of Castle Doria - Barry E. Kopetz
The Corridors of Castle Doria is a musical journey through a castle of varied and mysterious corridors. The opening represents standing upon the steps of the castle and being in awe of its size and majesty. The first corridor becomes narrow and somewhat close, moving ever smaller into a virtual crawlspace. The next section represents a dungeon-like corridor, dark, dank and musty, followed by a secret passage. Finally, there appears a long dark corridor that ultimately ends in the Great Hall and then a race to get out of the narrow corridor and outside to safety.

£104.50Flights Of Passage - Kent Rausch
This work was inspired by interviews the composer had with six World War II veterans. All had fascinating stories, which they had told for the thousandth time or for some, for the first time. Those moving stories were the basis for writing Flights of Passage. The piece is programmatic in nature, with six segments depicting the various "passages" that all Americans experienced in some way, both overseas and here at home. The six segments are Innocence, One Nation, Conflict, The Telegram, Remembrance, and One Nation, Indivisible.

£82.50Ragansong - Robert E. Foster Jr.
A beautiful ballad written for the composers daughter, Ragan, the songs is a reflection of her quiet and unassuming demeanor and the beauty and love of a fathers bond to his child. This moving and lyrical work begins with a gentle lullaby presented by the woodwinds which represents her at sleep. As the work progresses, it gradually builds until the full ensemble depicts Ragans dynamic personality and joy of life. It then unwinds as it began, as though you are watching your child gradually fall asleep in your arms. An effective, slower piece that will showcase musicianship and musicality through lush lines and beautiful phrases.

£121.00Always With Grace - Gary P. Gilroy
Always With Grace, commissioned by the Lloyd C. Bird High School band, includes references to Amazing Grace. Not meant to be an arrangement of this wonderful melody, it is instead a tribute to this favorite hymn. From the opening bars of driving eighth-note rhythms through the solemn and lyric middle section, the concept of "time moving forward" is represented by numerous musical devices. As the composition concludes, the full hymn is heard while an off-stage saxophone quartet and metallic percussion sounds "tick away" to an intriguing, unique conclusion.
