£191.99Sunrise at Angel's Gate - Philip Sparke
This piece depicts the refined beauty of the Grand Canyon at sunrise and sunset. These are the best times to view the Canyon with the sun low in the sky casting shadows that give depth and form to the vast panorama. Angel's Gate is one of the many named rock formations in the canyon. The composer has tried to depict the sights and sounds of dawn, birdsong in the early morning sky and the gradual revelation of the Canyon itself as sunlight reaches into its rocky depths.Towards the end of the piece, to the sound of a tolling bell, we are however reminded of the dangers that the beauty of the Grand Canyon so cleverly hides.

£69.99Crystal Waves - Stef Minnebo
During the first half of the sixties the world was under the spell of Californian surf music. Groups such as the Beach Boys, Dick Dale and his Del- Tones, The Surfaris and The Challengers dominated the international charts. The summery and happy style was very catchy, and as it turned out had a great influence on early rock music. Crystal Waves is an ode to this surf music and utilises its characteristic melodies, chords and rhythms to form a catchy piece for concert band.

Full Option - Stef Minnebo
This original work for rock guitar solo and orchestra by StefMinnebo is unique in its kind and is therefore a must if you like innovative concert programmes. Although this is a true solo work with ample scope for improvisation(ad libitum) for the soloist, the orchestra has also been given a significant role that goes beyond mere accompaniment. The guitar section has been written out in tablature and in notes, which makes it easier for the soloist. A challenging work, not for the faint hearted!

Dublimania - Menno Bosgra
This new work is based on Irish folk music.In the first part, the main theme is presented as a ballad, starting with the piccolo (as replacement for the flute which is widely used in Ireland), moving on the wood section to end with the entire orchestra.It then changes to a kind of rock style theme: powerful, rhythmic accompaniment with effects in dampers, a pedal point and the use of the spoons which is typical of Irish music (Irish pub), high-range bongo drum (replacement for the Bodhran), etc.In this second part I introduced a second theme as a counterbalance, played by several groups, which has clearly a more legato character and therefore sounds more melodious.The climaxof the work starts in the low-range brass section with its marcato theme that is developed with a great deal of rhythmicity in the accompaniment, clusters, etc. into a percussion solo interspersed by the orchestra in five-eight time with frequent parallel movement in chords (folk music style).Towards the end, theme 2 recurs twice: first as heard earlier with an extra counter melody and accompaniment pattern, then in a canonical form, in which the theme is played by three groups. The conclusion is a repeat of the middle section in five-eight time.I have tried to use many of the colours of a wind orchestra by having the wood sections and brass section play alone and making extensive use of dampers. Percussion also has a prominent role throughout the work.

£68.99Fusion Factory - James L. Hosay
At the end of the Sixties and the beginning of the Seventies, slowly but surely, a new exciting music style arose in pop music. Pop groups enlarged the musical spectrum by combining jazz harmonies with rock 'n' roll rhythms. These experiments are now known as 'fusion'. Fusion Factory combines elements of early fusion with modern fusion sounds. Listen to the excellent result!

£89.99Fire & Ice - Otto M. Schwarz
Otto M. Schwarz composed Fire & Ice for a symphonic rock project commissioned by the national music schools of the Austrian cities of Imst and Pitztal. In these cities, winter tourism plays an important role in the economy with spectacular weekly displays by winter sportsmen and women. The performances of the freestyle acrobats take place in the evening and draw huge crowds. Using torches and other pyrotechnics, these acrobats entertain the audience by means of fire, lights, snow, ice and acrobatics. This piece makes a perfect opening or final work for any concert. It will especially be a favourite among younger audience members.

£74.99Valerie - Sean Payne
Just a year after the English rock band The Zutons had considerable success with Valerie in Great Britain, Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse released a cover version - a version that was funkier, more upbeat and, in typical Winehouse fashion, more soulful, which shot up the charts in many countries. Valerie is surely one of the hits that immortalises the singer who died in 2011 and will find a welcome place in the repertoire of every concert band.
