Unsinkable Farewell
The RMS Titanic was not unsinkable, but this hymn played in the final fatal moments, is unsinkable and resonates even stronger today. Josh McInnish's arrangement of this old Methodist hymn opens with the sound of the ocean, and includes the refrain of a Fanny Crosby hymn at the end. This beautiful musical setting will convey the love and loss of that tragic moment in our world's history.

£71.50Poltergeist - John Prescott
Spooky sound effects abound in this rollicking work which depicts a familys encounter with a poltergeist in their home. Through foot stomping, percussion effects, instrument key and valve clicking, and other added effects such as ghostly laughter, the band creates a scary yet mischievous environment for the family. As the constantly-increasing tempo at the end of the work suggests, the family is eventually chased from their own house by the relentless and playful poltergeist. Create even more fun by encouraging your students to create their own special effects for an even spookier atmosphere.

£79.99Angelo del Cielo - Giacomo Puccini
The one-act opera Suor Angelica is set in the cloisters of an Italian convent at the end of the seventeenth century. Of noble birth, Angelica has been a nun for seven years, forced there by her family as punishment for an unknown sin. When her aunt visits her, she tells Angelica that her child had died. This terrible news becomes the reason for her only aria, Senza Mamma, a heart-wrenching song of restraint and dignity to her little 'angel in heaven' (Angelo del Cielo). The set contains solo parts, for soprano voice, cello and a duet for soprano and cello. There is also an optional solo part for trombone or euphonium.

£152.99Morning Song - Philip Sparke
Morning Song features the horn quartet mostly in a soloistic role - indeed there is an accompanied cadenza towards the end of the piece - but there are moments where the horns assume their conventional concert band role as harmonic support or playing the counter melody. This expressive composition shows all the versatility of the horn quartet and gives them the chance to be in the spotlight.

Cowbell Lullaby - Fenske
Moos...cowbells...yodels...alphorns... "Cowbell Lullaby" is an imaginative piece which transports you to Switzerland, joining cows at the end of their day's journey high in the Alps. The herd comes to life in the opening measures, lowing with excitement until the cows are calmed by a delicate lullaby. Dance music of the town band momentarily stirs them before the lullaby once again calls them to bed. Your developing players, and the audience as well, will "udderly" enjoy hanging out with the dairy farmer and his Alpine herd. Mooooo!

Battle Hymn 2000 - W. Steffe
The mainly unison, easy chorus parts in BATTLE HYMN 2000 mean you CAN prepare James Hosay's imaginative and inspiring version of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" for performance, even though opportunities for combined chorus and band rehearsals are hard to find. In fact, the dress rehearsal may be all you need to put on the finishing touches. It makes a spine-tingling finale for a combined choral/band concert (it can also be used as a stand-alone band piece). For a thrilling addition, consider having the chorus surround the audience while the band remains on stage. The surround-sound effect can be magnificent and it gives each member of the chorus a little personal stardom.Don't forget, having one piece at the end of the concert which includes everyone always helps to make sure you maintain a "full house" for all your performing groups.
