£79.99Nexus - James Curnow
The word nexus is defined as a tie or link between people and events. Nexus for solo trumpet and band includes several links between composer James Curnow and educator Alfred Watkins, to whom the work is dedicated.

Norwegian Colors - Jan Eriksen
Alfred is pleased to make this refreshing work by a renowned Norwegian composer available for the first time to concert bands around the world. Its simple and modest opening evolves into a bright-hued Trio with changing tonalities and interesting polyrhythms that migrate between sections. Individual parts are not difficult to play, yet imaginative orchestration makes the piece sound more complex than it actually is. (Grade 4---Medium)

Marche Americana - Søren Hyldgaard
Marche Americana owes a great deal to those heroic movie marches by composers in the like of John Williams, Elmer Bernstein, Alfred Newman, and others. In fact, you could say that it is a brash film theme looking for a home in,say, another Great Escape, Patton, or 1941.
