£71.99Jet Stream - Andreas Ziegelbäck
"Jet Stream" is a composition for a small wind orchestra. The term "Jet Stream" refers to a high-speed wind that occurs in the lowermost layer of Earth's atmosphere. Different temperature regions on Earth's surface give rise to these strong winds, particularly in the border areas where warm and cold air masses separate. The horizontally flowing winds around the globe can reach speeds of up to 540 kilometers per hour, approximately fifteen kilometers above our heads. These rapid wind movements play a crucial role in shaping our planet's weather and climate.To symbolize the wind, a device known as a "Howling Tube" is employed in the percussion section. The composition "Jet Stream" aims to capture the intensity and energy of these high-altitude winds in a musically and technically accessible manner. Simultaneously, it serves as a reminder, through its dramatic musical language, to treat our environment with greater care. Due to its modest instrumentation, the piece is particularly suitable for wind ensembles, including school wind bands.

£104.00Judgement Day - Peter Knockaert
The last decades we humans have witnessed a significant number of disturbing developments. If we look at the direct and persistent destructive influence of humans on nature: air and water quality are reducing, soils are depleting, crops are short of pollinators, coasts are less protected from storms, deforestation, the degradation of land, loss of biodiversity and pollution.In stark contrast we find the intelligence and boundless creativity of humans: what about all the high technological advancements? What lies ahead in the realm of Artificial Intelligence? Will we let machines make human decisions? What ethical issues arise there?This composition reflects the desperation and urgency of the human need for action. The music draws inspiration from the brutal natural forces that ravage our world as a direct consequence of human failure and selfishness.Are we heading towards a 'Judgment Day'? Or will humanity find a way to reverse negative trends towards a more livable, peaceful, and joyful environment for humans, animals, and nature?To underscore this message, composer Peter Knockaert opted for a highly classical idiom that has been used by many composers in classical music: the 'Dies Irae'. Traditionally, the Dies Irae is the third part of a requiem (funeral mass). The text used in 'Judgment Day' (for optional choir) is coming from the original Latin text.
