£14.95The Berlin Rag (Concert Band - Score Only) - Blinko, Timothy
The Berlin Rag evokes the rich harmonic sound-world of 1920s Berlin and contemporary jazz, fused with the technique of American Ragtime. The scoring is highly colouristic in nature, and has avoided any weighty doublings. There are also many solo opportunities for all the principal players, either chamber-like combinations, duets or solo lines. The magical crunchy effect of the tutti band is reserved until the end where it is finally released in a blaze of brass writing, spiked with timpani and percussion.

Bilbo the Hobbit Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
Originally written by the great English writer J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973), The Lord of the Rings has encountered new-found popularity recently with the release of three ?huge-hit? motion pictures. With Bilbo the Hobbit we enter the lands of Middle-earth during the Third Age, some decades before The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Fascinated by the works of the masters of film music, Maxime Aulio structured this work in their way. When the end credits roll, Maxime?s music displays all the basic characters and passages of the novel. From the landscapes of the Shire to Middle-earth, the Great Dragons to Gandalf the Wizard, Bilbo Baggins tells us his story through light and virtuoso arabesques in the solo part. Bilbo the Hobbit is a wonderful addition to the french horn repertoire and one to be a sure-fire hit with horn players everywhere.

£199.95CATCHER OF SHADOWS (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wilby, Philip
Catcher of Shadows was written in celebration of the work of photographer Frank Meadow Sutcliffe who lived and worked in the Yorkshire fishing port of Whitby at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. His work is largely of the sea, its tall ships and the people that live by and from it. The world which he catalogued is gone into our Romantic heritage, and a true northern nostalgia is one of the strongest flavours of his work. The music has sought to catch the flavour as well as some of the substance of his original work, even though particular photographs are directly connected with particular parts of the music. Duration: 15 mins.

£123.75How Deep The Father's Love For Us
"How Deep The Father's Love For Us" is a timeless hymn from British songwriter and Christian worship leader Stuart Townend, written just before the end of the 20th century. This poignant setting for band by Anthony LaBounty was written to honor Mr. William Leslie, the father of beloved colleague Thomas Leslie, and purposely borrows vignettes of imagery recognized in Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring, among other orchestration elements. The tune is melodious and alluring; equal to the text bountiful in poetic language illuminating the scriptural epitome of the ultimate love of a father.

£75.00Infernal Ride (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hesketh, Kenneth
Infernal Ride is mercurial and virtuosic, reflecting the mad-cap chase of Ichabod Crane's final ride on his horse, Gunpowder, in the story by Washington Irving, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Often an atmosphere of driven fear pushes the music forward, only briefly stopping for breath. The work closes with flourishes in rapid succession, perhaps with the hapless Ichabod meeting his unfortunate end. Duration: 7.00

£54.99St. James Drive (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Evers, Harm
A visit to the United States inspired Harm Evers to write this march. It has thus become an "American style" march-a happy "Swing March." The Pithy rhythmical melody and the simple harmony come together in a merry whole. The melodic counterparts in the tenor register, the dynamic contrasts, and the varied instrumentation keep the march exciting from the beginning to the end, both for the listener and the musician.Duration: 3:00

£59.00Tropanka and Patsh Tantz
This two-movement work is sure to be a hit at your next concert! The first movement, Tropanka (pronounced "tro-PAHN-kuh"), translates as "stomping dance" and originated in Bulgaria. One can hear two repeated notes at the end of each phrase - this is where the dancers stomp! The second movement, Patsh Tantz (pronounced "PAHTSH tahnts") is a classic example of Klezmer, or Eastern European Jewish folk music. The title of this movement is Yiddish for "clapping dance", and all the players get the chance to clap at certain points in their individual parts. Both movements should be played rhythmically; adding weight to many of the downbeats will help bring out the "earthy" character of the music.

£101.20Heaven Near the Earth - Afonso Alves
Heaven Near the Earth is a composition by Afonso Alves inspired by the belief that there is a paradise for the soul when the body dies. But as long as we live, it is in our hands to build paradise on earth. The 1st movement is epic with contrasting textures, with the brass section entering into an intense dialogue with the forest. The 2nd movement is quiet, recited, engaging all instruments in colourful sections. The 3rd movement is light and bright, with a melodic ostinato in crescendo until the finale, which creates great tension until the end of the composition. An excellent option for the opening of a concert.
