£60.99As Tears Fall on Dawn's New Light (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Saucedo, Richard L.
Even though the ranges and rhythms are quite modest in this beautiful lyric piece for young bands, there is a wealth of musicality to be learned and enjoyed. Delicate and sensitive in the beginning, there is a logical ebb and flow to the music as it builds to a full ensemble climax then back to the quieter texture and harmonic shift at the end. A rewarding setting for your young players.Duration: 3:40

£69.99Der Aufstand (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Higgins, Gavin
Der Aufstand (German for 'riot') is not a descriptive work, nor is it solely based on the riots of 2011. It does, however, draw on the idea of opposing forces and escalating anger. The work falls into two contrasting sections that are linked by a series of repeated, 'screaming' chords. A slow build drives the first section from a single pitch to a blazing orchestral tutti. The second section is a fast and wild series of fanfares and driving rhythms that ultimately cannot be sustained. In many ways this mirrors the first. Both sections open on single tones (Bb and E) and grow to a climax of brass and hammered chords. The first performance took place on the last day of the 2012 Olympic Games. Der Aufstand is a noisy antithesis to the celebratory fanfare. Duration: 10.00
