£170.00Green Bushes - Percy Aldridge Grainger / arr. Frank Pappajohn
This arrangement by Frank Pappajohn, taken from the original full orchestra score, is another of the newly authorized 'Grainger Society Approved Editions' by LudwigMasters Publications. While other arrangements exist with cuts in the music, this is the only complete version that is available for band. Composed between 1905 and 1906, it was apparently a quite well-known melody as Grainger collected ten different versions of it over his career, using one version as the concluding movement of his Lincolnshire Posy. This is an important new addition to the repertoire that everyone should have.

£66.95Three Susato Dances from - Tylman Susato [Tielman Susato] / arr. David Marlatt
These dances were taken from a much larger suite originally for just four recorders. Style is everything with these short pieces---brilliant fortes are contrasted with smooth lyrical playing. The ensemble must work together to match articulations, dynamics, and style. All the instrument families get a chance to shine and this could also be used as an educational piece to study the Renaissance era and its music.

£50.50The Uprising - David Marlatt
provides ultimate flexibility for ensembles with incomplete instrumentation or odd combinations. These pieces are playable by as few as 5 woodwind, brass, or string players with or without percussion. This creates the opportunity for a mixed quintet to perform these titles but also allows for performance for 10-15 players up to full a band/orchestra with parts doubling. Great for music camps, contest use or any band room that has non-standard instrumentation. is a bold and daring work portraying a group challenging the people in power. This has been staged in 6 programatic sections: "The Current Regime" is noble and confident in character---perhaps too confident. "Next Is the Planning"---the rebel forces begin planning quietly but with purpose and drive. This builds as "The Forces Gather"---louder, stronger, and passionate about their beliefs. This inevitably leads to "Battle!" where the forces collide in combat. Short aggressive bursts of sound lead to "Victory Is Ours," where a new order takes their place in charge. "Celebration" begins and builds to a joyous conclusion.

£50.50Kingsfold
provides ultimate flexibility for ensembles with incomplete instrumentation or odd combinations. These pieces are playable by as few as 5 woodwind, brass or string players with or without percussion. This creates the opportunity for a mixed quintet to perform these titles but also allows for performance for 10-15 players up to full a band/orchestra with parts doubling. Great for music camps, contest use or any band room that has non-standard instrumentation. This beautiful folk song has been used as the melody for several popular hymns including "I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say," "O Sing a Song of Bethlehem," "I Feel the Winds of God Today," and several others. It is a beautiful work that seems to float along both melodically and harmonically. This arrangement is opened by a solo voice with a sense of a lone player on the top of a hill surrounded by mist. The tune is then played in full quartet voicing leading to other variations and re-scorings. It ends as it began, very peacefully and reflectively.
