£16.95A Fugal Concerto (Flute, Oboe And Small Wind Band) (Concert Band - Score Only) - Holst, Gustav - Brand, Geoffrey
This work was originally written for flute, oboe (or two violins) and String Orchestra in 1923. This arrangement was premiered by the Stockholm Symphonic Winds in September 1993, conducted by the arranger. The style of A Fugal Concerto is very much neo-classical - all the rage at the time, although whether Holst had heard Stravinsky's examples is not known. In so far as the work is fugal, the adjective applies more to the texture than the form, although the second movement is canonic. The contrapuntal texture is not straightforward as phrases are displaced across barlines and cross rhythms are a feature. Nothing is allowed to settle until the folk tune is introduced toward the end. Yet, within this musical web, fascinating patterns and cross references reveal themselves.

£51.48A Song of Goodbye
While some goodbyes are temporary, and others more permanent, this lovely flowing lyrical work for band helps capture the range of those feelings of farewell in music. Haunting and somber melodies give way to an uplifting chorale, and a poignant and slightly unsettled conclusion remind us of how our farewells reach so deeply into the soul. An excellent selection for development of blend, balance, intonation, and musicianship, "A Song Of Goodbye" will be an outstanding choice for festival and concert performances.
