Homeland (Concert Band - Score and Parts)
In Homeland, Austrian composer Otto M. Schwarz has set to music the beauty of his own country in a musical monument. The work describes the area of Hohe Tauern (High Tauern) which in 1913, following the American model, was declared the first national park in Europe. In Schwarz's music it's easy to hear how the ancient mountains, glaciers, native wildlife and the famous Krimml waterfalls offer an impressive natural spectacle that needs to be protected. 13:25

Jamaica Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
Jamaica is an island in the Caribbean. In 1494 it was discovered by Christopher Columbus, who used it as private property until 1509. After some skirmishes it fell under British rule and the sugar trade on the island flourished. After the abolition of slavery in 1834 it was only granted Home Rule in 1944, but it remained a member of the British Commonwealth of Nations. Whereas the export of cane sugar used to be Jamaica's main export product for many years, nowadays music has taken over this role. At first American music used to be very popular on the island. Later, however, Jamaican musicians started to experiment and thus in the end created their own musical style called Reggae. Well-known Reggae musicians are Bob Marley and Peter Tosh. The most important instruments used in Reggae are the bass and the drums. Together they form the base for the style: the riddim. A bass drum accent on the second and fourth beat are characteristic of a typically reggae drum beat. To this syncopic patterns are often added. The rhythm guitarist plays chords in a characteristic Reggae rhythm, not on, but between the beats. 02:30
