£104.99Triumphal March (Concert Band - Score and Parts)
The Gran Finale from the second act of Verdi's famous opera Aida, composed in 1869, is a complex part of the drama as in one single scene many different characters, allwith contrasting emotions, appear onstage at the same time. The scene opens in Ancient Egypt when the Egyptian general Radames and his troops, which have just beaten Ethiopia, come marching in. The Egyptians sing a celebration song for him and there is a sound of trumpets playing the triumphal march to receive the hero. The well-known triumphal march, transcribed in this edition for concert band by Franco Cesarini, closely follows Verdi's original score and will bring any concert to a dramatic close. 05:30

Volare Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
In 1958, Domenico Modugno (1928-1994) song Nel blu dipinto di blu (or Volare) was the Italian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest. Modugno did not win the contest (he became third) but the song - a true sing-along - turned out to be a worldwide hit. In the course of decades, Volare has been translated into various languages, and performed by many artists of repute, like The Gipsy Kings, Dean Martin, Louis Armstrong, Petula Clark, and David Bowie. With this catchy arrangement, Lorenzo Bocci has given Volare a wonderfully fitting Concert Band sound. 0:03:45

£51.95Hallelujah Chorus (Concert Band with Optional Chorus - Score and Parts) - Handel, George Frideric - Kinyon, John
The Hallelujah Chorus is the best known and most dramatic section from The Messiah, an oratorio first performed in Dublin in 1742 with the composer conducting. In addition to the chorus, the original orchestration called for two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, timpani, strings and keyboard instruments. King George III, in attendance at the premier performance, is said to have suddenly leaped to his feet on hearing the opening chords. Historians disagree, however, as to whether his majesty was merely showing his appreciation of the music or whether, as one story goes, he had been startled out of a sound sleep. Whichever, the entire audience followed the regal example, thereby instituting a tradition which has persisted for more than two centuries. Even today it is customary for an audience to rise during the performance of this exciting work. Duration: 4.00
