£74.99The Long Day Closes (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sullivan, Arthur - Sparke, Philip
Although Arthur Sullivan (1842-1900) is best known for his collaboration with W.S. Gilbert on their famous operettas, he also wrote much instrumental, chamber and orchestral music, church anthems and around 20 secular part songs. One such song was The Long Day Closes which has remained in the popular repertoire of many male voice and mixed choirs. The melody is a combination of hushed hymn-like reverence and emotional intensity, which provides the young band the opportunity to work on dynamics, ensemble, intonation and balance in chorale style.Duration: 3:00

£104.99Little Concerto (Flexible Solo with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Waignein, Andre
Little Concerto is a most useful solo item due to the fact that the key and the range of the solo part mean it can be performed by several different instruments, from flute to baritone. Little Concerto consists of three movements: an Allegro written in classical style, which alternates between tutti and soli passages; a second movement, sweet and calm, to fully display the richness of the solo instrument's sound colours and finally an Allegro giocoso. It is a fairly simple piece and is therefore particularly suitable for young or inexperienced soloists who want to display their artistic skills.Duration: 7.00

£164.95Time Lines (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Turnbull, Kit
The time line is a western musicological device that allows us to define many of the rhythms used in sub-Saharan music. It is essentially a 12-beat pattern that can be subdivided as 6x2, 2x6, 4x3, or 3x4, which generates many of the polyrhythms that are common in African music. Time Lines is a single continuous work made up of four contrasting sections which are based on various aspects of African dance and choral music. The slow introduction introduces many of the rhythms that the piece is based on and is followed by a fast section which quotes a South African hymn. Abasundu Nabamhlope (the first line of which translates as 'Black and whites, let them give thanks together'. The chorale section which follows makes use of phrases from the hymn Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika (Lord Bless Africa) which was written in 1897 and has since been adopted as the national anthem of several countries in southern Africa. The final allegro section sees the drawing together of the various dance and choral elements used in the piece with the percussion section playing rhythmic patterns generated by the time line.Duration: 13:30Recorded on QPRM151D TIME LINES: Great British Music for Wind Band Vol.12 (Royal Northern College of Music)
