£79.99Lawrence of Arabia - Maurice Jarre
David Lean's epic film Lawrence of Arabia was nominated for ten Academy Awards and won seven, including Best Original Score for Maurice Jarre's masterful musical depiction of the exotic world through which T.H. Lawrence passed. Alfred Reed's setting of the music for concert band, available here for the first time in full score with newly edited parts, is built on two of the main themes: the Arabian motif, with its blazing color and almost-barbaric effects; and the Lawrence theme, a haunting, poignant melody that reflects both his love of the desert and his internal, psychological conflicts.

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.
