£72.99Cambridge Intrada (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip
This short processional was designed to be played as a concert opener but can equally be used as a sort of extended fanfare at presentations, graduation ceremonies and similar occasions. Its title evokes the noble grandeur of the university buildings in the English town of Cambridge where pomp and circumstance are still a normal part of life. A fanfare-like passage opens and closes the work and sandwiches a more legato central section.Duration: 1:15

£72.99March from Scipio (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Handel, George Frideric - Sparke, Philip
Handel's opera Scipio was written in 1725 and performed the following year in the King's Theatre, London. Following Handel's death his operas fell into obscurity until the 1960s when they experienced a major revival. This famous march from Scipio has however remained popular since its first performance and has been the Regimental Slow March of the British Grenadier Guards since the 18th century. The march is fairly simple and gives young bands the opportunity to play a well-known baroque melody which should be well within their technical ability.Duration: 2:15

£72.99The 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
