£79.99Burnished Brass: A Concert Opener - James Barnes
Written in a quick two, this Show-Style Opener lives up to its title with much of the thematic materials in the opening theme faalling to the brass, while the woodwinds interject flourishes and counterpoints. The woodwinds come to the fore during the middle section until the brass take over again when the original theme returns, leading to a rousing finish.

£43.54Christmas Processional - Wind Band (French Trad. arr. Andrew Wainwright)
A spectacular opener to any Christmas concert, based on the French carol, Bring a torch, Jeanette, Isabella. This work tells the story of a group of children in medieval Provence, dressed up as shepherds and milkmaids, carrying torches and candles as they proceed to the stable. As they draw closer and their excitement increases, they are constantly reminded by their parents to keep the noise down so that they don't wake up the baby Jesus. The music begins quietly and builds to a majestic conclusion. "If I were still conducting regularly, this would certainly be on my list as a Christmas concert opener - it sets the energy and mood most effectively. The scoring is terrific." Paul Hindmarsh, music critic PDF download includes score and full set of parts.
