While much of composer Paul Whear's efforts have been in advanced-level music, he has also written some very significant works for lower level bands.

£82.95March Jubiloso - Darren W. Jenkins
This contest work is celebratory in nature and is marked by bold fanfares and sweeping countermelodies. Full of rhythmic vitality, the main theme has a heroic quality and continues to build through different sections. A lighter middle section is reminiscent of the flowing melodies and sparse orchestrations of Ralph Vaughan Williams. A final restatement of the opening theme moves into an exciting coda that drives the work to a triumphant conclusion!

£119.00The Music Lesson - Robert W. Smith
Inspired by the command and structure of two Henri Matisse paintings under the name "The Music Lesson", this powerful work for alto saxophone and band will become a staple of the repertoire. From the strict structure of the opening piano statement to the classically influenced melodic interplay with the saxophone, the piece moves through a flowing musical environment highlighted by a virtuosic cadenza. The recapitulation of the initial melodic line completes our music lesson and provides a strong conclusion to "Three Conversations With Matisse", a suite for alto saxophone and band.Original Item#: RWS-2205-00

£119.00The Dance - Robert W. Smith
Inspired by the paintings of impressionist Henri Matisse and featuring the alto saxophone, "The Dance" is the first movement of "Three Conversations With Matisse." Along with the well known Matisse painting of the same name, this unique musical statement can be described as forbidding, menacing, tribal and ritualistic. Written for the accomplished saxophone soloist, the band accompaniment is well within the technical range of most high school, university and community ensembles. A powerful and welcome addition to the saxophone and concert band repertoire!Original Item#: RWS-2203-00

£119.00Mutations - Robert W. Smith
Featuring the concert band's brass section and an offstage trumpet ensemble, this contemporary work draws its inspiration from the mutation of sound and its transmission throughout the ensemble and performance environment. From a dark and mysterious beginning with muted sounds on all brass instruments, the timbre and sonority slowly mutates through various musical environments. As the brass section mutates to open sounds, the result is a stunning and glorious music statement that transforms the ensemble and audience alike.Original Item#: RWS-2335-00
