    The Pirates of Penzance is perhaps Gilbert and Sullivan's most popular operetta, and tells the story of Frederic, who was apprenticed to a band of tender-hearted, orphaned pirates. A Sullivan Ballad uses a hauntingly simple love duet, from the end of Act 2, Ah, leave me not to pine alone and desolate, which is arranged here as a duet for flute and alto saxophone (or clarinet). Both performers and audience alike will love this beautiful duet.Duration: 2:30

    The Long Day Closes (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sullivan, Arthur - Sparke, Philip

    Although Arthur Sullivan (1842-1900) is best known for his collaboration with W.S. Gilbert on their famous operettas, he also wrote much instrumental, chamber and orchestral music, church anthems and around 20 secular part songs. One such song was The Long Day Closes which has remained in the popular repertoire of many male voice and mixed choirs. The melody is a combination of hushed hymn-like reverence and emotional intensity, which provides the young band the opportunity to work on dynamics, ensemble, intonation and balance in chorale style.Duration: 3:00

    Parade of the Clockwork Soldiers (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip

    This piece was inspired by the composer watching his young son, Benny, playing 'soldiers' with his collection of teddy bears - how appropriate! But it made him think of the many character pieces which take the form of a 'toy march', the most notable examples being by Haydn, Tchaikovsky and Leon Jessel. Parade of the Clockwork Soldiers is in the form of a 'patrol' (starting and ending quietly with a louder middle) and aims to represent a band marching past the listener. In fact, where the hall layout permits it, it could be possible to add a little choreography to the piece, starting and ending with only a few instruments on stage.Duration: 4:30

    Rockin' Trumpets (Trumpet Section Feature with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip

    The history of rock and roll can be traced back as far as the musical influence of the first African slaves to arrive in North America.

Rockin' Tumpets gives the young band a chance to rock and roll with the trumpets taking the lead. Treat your trumpets to this lively section feature.Duration: 2:30

    Harlequin (Euphonium Solo with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip

A fantastic showpiece for euphonium and band.Duration: 9.00

    Euphonium Concerto No.2 (Euphonium Solo with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip

    The original concept for this work was a suite of short movements, each with its own character, but by the time the first movement was complete it was clear that a conventional three-movement format was going to work out better. The opening movement contains much syncopation and is almost rag-like in style. The slower second movement explores the unsurpassable ability of the euphonium to play lyrically, with a theme that is later taken up by the band whilst the soloist weaves a filigree descant. This leads straight into the third movement, which is almost bebop in style and shows off the jazzier capabilities of the euphonium. The concerto was composed for the virtuoso soloist, Steven Mead. A version for euphonium and piano is also available.Duration: 16:30
