£65.99Two Bagatelles - Alfred Reed
Alfred Reed's "Two Bagatelles" was first published as a trombone quartet, then enlarged to a brass choir and finally to a full concert band setting. Andy Clark has taken it back to its beginnings and adapted it for the Barnhouse Build-A-Band Series, so that students in very small bands will get a chance to perform music by this master composer. Sounds great if the four basic parts are covered among the instruments present.

Tangle Wood Overture - Daisuke Shimizu
With this festive overture, which can also be played as a concert work, we introduce this young Japanese composer for the first time. He is already a real superstar in Japan, and with this piece, we get a little peek at why this is so. This piece is reminiscent of a flashy movie soundtrack with powerful and enthralling melodies and spectacular rhythmical sections. A very promising piece from a very promising composer.

Night of Wonder - Douglas Court
In a singing style, this pretty work will be a sparkling and reverent moment in your holiday concert. A superb contrast piece from the pen of Douglas Court, NIGHT OF WONDER engages fascinating harmonic and contrapuntal forces in a truly unique arrangement of WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS.While the wind players get to work on expressive playing, there's plenty of engaging activity for the percussionists too, so rehearsing this contrast piece won't pose the problems of "uninvolved personnel" that some expressive pieces can create in young bands.Beautiful music!

An Irish Lullaby - Stephen Bulla
What can be more charming than a comely Irish folk melody? This is music that allows the band to play in the rubato style, with much room for expression. Found in an old British publication and simply called "Irish Air," this endearing arrangement is a rhapsodic treatment that takes fragments of the melody and develops them into a large symphonic work. The freedom of tempi allows you to work with your band in a sensitively conducted way that only a beautiful piece like this will allow.There is always room on a concert program for at least one lush, melodic contrast piece. Perhaps this one is for you. It's so difficult to describe a thing of real beauty. Please listen tothe demo recording and hear it for yourself.

The Magic Flute - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Any list of Mozart's greatest works should include this overture. Loved by millions, Mozart's Magic Flute is remarkable for so many reasons and worthy of study by every musician! Why should we deny young band students the joy of playing Mozart just because they don't happen to use a bow on their instruments? Mozart belongs to Everyone! Skillfully brought to the concert band stage by an arranger who works with young bands daily, this somewhat shortened version of the enigmatic Overture is accessible to young bands, but retains a great deal of authenticity. There is added versatility built into this arrangement. A nice performance is possible by using a completeWoodwind section and a Timpanist only. Inspiring!>/I>

The Monument March - David W. Moore
A bright and colorful closer, THE MONUMENT MARCH gives each section of the band an important role to play. The 6/8 meter serves as a nice contrast if your concert is primarily duple-meter based. Nearly every imaginable 6/8 rhythm (without using 16th notes) is included somewhere in this piece, so bands that have had a LOT of experience at playing in 6/8 will enjoy rehearsals as they reinforce those important 6/8 reading skills.A skill-builder for advancing groups!

Suo-Gan - James Curnow
Lovely and delicate, this familiar Welsh lullaby is simple yet strong, in a beautifully scored setting. This is a familiar folksong that has stood the test of time, and deservedly so, and will deeply move your audience, and many will remember the tune as used in the movie "Empire Of The Sun." It's a wonderful choice for a tender moment in your program.
