£49.50The Secrets of McDougal's Cave
Inspired by the well-known cave on the Mississippi River that Mark Twain wrote about in his famous book "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". This cave has been the site of many adventures and has held many interesting secrets Alternating between a hauntingly lyrical slow section and a driving, syncopated ostinato, this creative work provides an excellent opportunity for you to introduce simple changing meter to your ensemble while the "mysterious and modal!" melodic lines and syncopated rhythms create an outstanding musical framework for a piece which creates the illusion that its more difficult than it really is. Great teaching tool and outstanding contest or concert selection. Very highly recommended!

£56.00Power - Harold Bennett
This is one of Harold Bennett's (pseudonym of Henry Fillmore) lesser-known marches, but that is no indication of its quality. It is a 6/8 march in standard march form but what is unique about this classic from the original Bennett Band Book is that it is one of the few Bennett marches that includes a "break strain." This makes it a great introduction for younger students to prepare them to play the more challenging marches of Fillmore, Sousa, and others.
