£244.99The Last Friend of Napoleon (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Brosse, Dirk
The Last Friend of Napoleon is based on a true piece of Dutch history. In October 1813, when Napoleon was beaten after his unsuccessful Russian campaign, the French withdrew from the Netherlands. At the beginning of 1814, the whole country had been liberated except for the town of Delfzijl, still occupied by French troops. This programmatic work is about political and military stubbornness, chasing dreams, and about love always following its own unequalled way. Being one of the most acknowledged composers of today, Dirk Brosse has created an epic work that depicts a dramatic story, using the full range of the symphonic band resulting in challenging brass passages, a wide range of percussion and a lot of strong, beautiful and melodic material.Duration: 20.00

£46.95Come the Brave (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wagner, Douglas E.
Inspired by demonstrated courage, this original work is intended as a confidence-building piece for a young ensemble's first Spring concert. It serves as a perfect gateway into articulation and varying dynamics: the three most commonly occurring articulation marks (staccato, accent, and tenuto) have been included, as have the middle three dynamic markings (mezzo piano, mezzo forte, and forte) building and declining in intensity. These musical concepts can be experienced individually and within the ensemble. A bold musical statement!

£75.00Fiesta (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Anderson, Keiron
This piece is a celebration and can be played at any happy occasion. It was written to celebrate 30 years of the Nottingham Symphonic Wind Orchestra in 2017. The music grows from syncopated rhythms and a five note motif which is use to form melody and chords. There is a strong rhythmic undercurrent in percussion and in the interplay between sections. The motif is clearly heard in the flutes and clarinets in an imitative section before the key changes to form a second theme on the oboe then the flute. These secondary themes are still formed from the original motif before the music recapitulates the multi time signatures from earlier in the piece. The relentless pace drives the music to a flourish of upper woodwind and a syncopated brass coda. Duration: 4.30

£179.99Equestrian Symphonette (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Cesarini, Franco
Equestrian Symphonette was written for the Orchestre d'Harmonie de Laval, France.

Interesting rhythmical patterns, together with rich melodies, are interwoven throughout this original piece which makes it an excellent choice for a contest or as an enterprising part of your concert.Duration: 12.00

£60.99The Willow Tree (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Ni Uallachain, Padraigin - Sweeney, Michael
Although this haunting tune has the flavor and sentiment of a traditional Irish folk song, it was composed in 1995 by multifaceted artist P?draig?n N? Uallach?in. Her inspiration for the song was the idea that when we are happy or sad, the elements and the natural world are aligned with our feelings. From the wistful lyrics of the song; "Down by the river there's a tall willow tree, who weeps all night for you and me." This evocative setting for band follows this sentiment through peaks and valleys of sound and emotion. Duration: 3:15
