£140.80Jazz Suite - Manfred Schneider
The German composer and arranger Manfred Schneider has been playing for many years with the military band Heeresmusikkorps 300 at Cologne. In the meantime he got a reputation as composer of light symphonic music for concert band in Germany and abroad. In the Molenaar Edition catalogue you find already several of his compositions, such as Upside Down, Song of Freedom, the rhythmical study Rock and Go and the most popular Rock Symphonie. Schneider is well at ease in today's musical styles and this time he was inspired by jazz music. The three-part Jazz Suite starts with a nice jazz waltz; the more quiet second part is a fine jazz ballad, whereas the final part is an exuberant jazz samba. A com-plete percussion section and a piano will provide the typical jazz spirit.

£245.50Seven Wonders of the Ancient World - Alex Poelman
In the Ancient World the seven most beautiful monuments were called 'The seven Wonders of the World'. In his Symphony nr.1, The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World' the young Dutch composer Alex Poelman has made a musical portrait of these splendid human realizations which are now, but for one, all destroyed. The symphony is masterly and lavishly orchestrated and portrays both the power of the sovereigns of ancient times and the splendour of the most beautiful buildings and works of art they have had built. Moreover, neither the seducing Eastern charm nor the mysterious exotic atmosphere are failing.Alex Poelman (Arnhem, 1981) studied informatics at the Twente University and plays French horn in several top amateur bands. Under the guidance of David Rowland he wrote his first composition for wind band 'Volcano'. This was followed by 'Theseus', 'Symphony nr. 1 'The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World', 'D-Day' and 'Aquila Chrysaetos'. This symphony was premiered on 28 May 2004 at Enschede. One year later, it was recorded on CD by the new Dutch military band KMKJWF conducted by Norbert Nozy.I. THE TEMPLE OF ARTEMIS.The Greek goddess Artemis, daughter of Zeus and Leto and twin sister of Apollo, was the goddess of the hunt and was especially worshipped in Arcadia. In the town of Ephesus, an Ionic colony in Asia Minor, a splendid temple was built in honour of Artemis which was destroyed in 356 B.C. when Herostratos set fire to it. Some years later it was reconstructed.II. THE GREAT PYRAMID OF CHEOPSCheops, the second pharaoh of the 4th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt (3rd century B.C.) had the big pyramid built at Gizeh on the left bank of the Nile, next to Cairo. The technical perfection and the huge dimensions of this magnificent 137 m high building were never equalled. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that was not destroyed and is kept undamaged up to this day. III. THE STATUE OF ZEUS Zeus, son of Chronos and Rhea, was the leading god of the Greek pantheon and, according to Homer 'the father of all gods and all humans'. He was the god of the celestial light and controlled all physical phenomena. In the Greek town of Olympia, birthplace of the Olympic Games, there was a splendid statue representing the Olympic Zeus. It had been sculptured about 433 B.C. by the great Athenian sculptor Phobias (ca 490 - ca 430 B.C.) and was considered as the nicest statue of the ancient Greek world. IV. THE MAUSOLEUM AT HALICARNASSOS. Halikarnassos (the actual Bodrum in Turkey) was at one time the capital of Asia Minor. When king Mausolos died in 353 B.C., his wife and sister Artemisa ordered to build a huge funeral monument (Mausoleum) for her deceased husband. It gave its name to all large funeral monuments in the world.

Sinfonietta - Score and Parts - Rob Wiffin
Program NotesSinfonietta is a challenging, extended work for symphonic wind band. It is in three movements: Dance with the Devil, A Glimpse of Paradise and Reyes Magos. The first two movements are a transition from dark to light; Dance with the Devil is aggressive and occasionally macabre whereas A Glimpse of Paradise is serene. The first and final parts of the second movement were originally written for a sequence in the Royal Military Tattoo 2000, played under the John Magee poem High Flight – ‘Oh I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth...Put out my hand, and touched the face of God’ - with videos of eagle owls in flight dramatically projected onto the buildings of Horse Guards in Whitehall, London.The last movement, Reyes Magos, is the joyous fiesta of the Three Kings. I wrote Sinfonietta while living in Spain and there January 6th, rather than Christmas Day, is the main day of present-giving, marking the Epiphany, the arrival of the Kings from the Orient at the Nativity.Sinfonietta is technically and expressively demanding but is written within the realms of tonal language.
