Written with a Grainger-like sensibility and an Irish charm, Billy Joel's emergence as a serious composer includes this beautiful air. The lyric opening, featuring optional Piano and solo for English Horn (or Alto Sax), leads to an invigorating dance-like movement with creative rhythmic and harmonic devices. Challenging for each section, yet certainly attainable and well worth the effort.

£79.99Passages - Michael Sweeney
The term passage can variously describe a passageway of travel, a musical phrase, or perhaps the soul's moving on from this world to the next. In this work for band, dark and rich sonorities are contrasted with a lilting,Celtic-flavored melody as it alternates with striking passages from the brass. Later, an alto sax soloist adds a haunting quality to the mood followed by a return of the ethnic drumming heard earlier. This unique and rewardingcomposition is beautifully paced and skillfully orchestrated using every section of the band. Dur: 7:00 (Grade 4)

In Quest Of Uluru - James Swearingen
The slow introduction splits the melody between the clarinets, alto sax, and flute. This builds into a full band statement scored in a very lush manner. A faster section moves between 4/4 and 2/4, creating a pulse that captivatesthe listener. The repetitive rhythms and solid scoring of James Swearingen make this an ideal festival or contest piece.
