Pacific Dreams (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob
Pacific Dreams describes the experience of Miguel, a traveling composer from Spain who, feeling somewhat alienated from his homeland, is wandering through an area of Sydney known as The Rocks. At a small outdoor market in a typical street of this old colonial neighbourhood, he discovers a print of William DeShazos painting Pacific Dreams. Portrayed in the painting is the surf of one of the exotic islands in the Pacific. Next, with the impressive Sydney Harbour Bridge looming over the narrow streets of The Rocks, he envisions sultry Pacific beaches. Suddenly a theme he once composed about the lakes in Japan comes to him. Is it the Asian influences present in cosmopolitan Sydney that bring this theme to mind? Or perhaps the waters around Sydney, over which he could sail to Tahiti? He is uncertain. Could this same theme be used to create a new composition about his feelings for the metropolis Sydney? How then to work his Pacific Dreams into the mix? Miguel is certainly no fan of Hawaiian music. Maybe he could use the vocabularies of islands like Hawaii and Tahiti, their beautiful vowel combinations being sung ad libitum by a mixed choir.With these ideas and his newly purchased print of Pacific Dreams, he boards the Metro at Circular Quay. He has a final glimpse of the harbour and the Sydney Opera House as the train races into the ground. On to the hotel! To work! He must compose!Maestoso: Miguel is impressed as he gazes upon the Sydney Harbour Bridge. And yet, he wants to go away from this city. Away, to an exotic island in the Pacific.Steady Rock : In the Rocks, musicians are playing at a square. Miguel basks in the atmosphere but at the same time he is fantasising about Hawaii and Tahiti.Andante Lamentoso: In his hotel room, Miguel is feeling sad and lonely in this big city. He takes comfort in his Pacific Dreams.Allegro: Miguel boards the boat that takes him from Darling Harbour to Circular Quay. In his mind he is travelling on to Hawaii. Or is it home, where the bolero is playing? He is pulled back to reality by the skyline of Sydney.Duration: 9:15

Harlequin (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Cesarini, Franco
An Overture for Concert BandThe overture Harlequin was composed in 1995 to mark the 50th anniversary of the Swiss Federation of Wind Band conductors. The striking ascending and descending melodic lines, heard throughout the composition, together with the intricate rhythm, form an entertaining whole. The work begins with a sparkling opening in which the strong rhythmic brass passages are surrounded by virtuoso woodwind embellishments. The theme of the energetic opening later returns in the Andante Rubato, but in a very different form. The middle movement develops towards a partial repeat of the opening section which leads quickly into a thundering Presto finale.Duration: 7:30

Symphony No. 5 (Theme From The Second Movement) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Schubert, Franz - Johnson, Stuart
Schuberts delightful 5th Symphony in Bb major, written in 1816, is a miniature, perhaps avoiding comparison with Beethovens 5th, written just 10 years earlier. Schuberts Great was to come later. Johnson, Stuart has taken the theme from the 2nd movement, Andante con moto, and brought this gem within the reach of technically less advanced players without diminishing the musical quality.

Trumpet Classics (Trumpet Solo) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Johnson, Stuart
Trumpet Tune - John Stanley (1713-1786) was an English organist and composer despite being blinded by an accident when he was only two years old, He learned music when he was seven and held several prestigious appointments as organist in London churches. He wrote Masques, Concertos for Strings, and three sets of Organ Voluntaries. Andante from Trumpet Concerto - This is the second movement of the well known Trumpet Concerto written in 1796 when Haydn was 64: a mature work therefore. Johnson, Stuart has cleverly transposed the piece into F Major (G Major for the Trumpet) and also replaced the original 6/8 with 6/4, making notation more accessible for younger players.

A short Andante features Oboe (cued in Clarinet), Flute and Horn, before the earlier Allegro returns, leading to a fortissimo climax.
