The Wilderness - Rossano Galante
The wilderness is a dark, musical journey that captures the beauty and harshness of a cold, snow covered forest in the mountains. The main theme,stated by winds, captures the solitary feeling of the vastness of the landscape. This theme is interrupted by dissonant brass ostinatos. After the full orchestra reiterates the main theme, the work transitions to a lyrical, melancholy theme. This is the wilderness at night when it is dark and solitary. The piece continues with a fast, dramatic theme capturing a sense of danger that the inhabitants of the forest create. The piece concludes with the full ensemble recapitulating material from the main opening theme.

£53.50Merry Music - Frigyes Hidas
Although Frigyes Hidas (1928-2007) composed in every genre, he gained international fame and recognition principally with his chamber music for brass instruments and his works written for wind ensembles and wind orchestras. In 1995 he was invited to WASBE, the international organization of wind ensembles, and in the final decades of his life, which were rich in commissions, he travelled the world as a competition jury member, guest of honour at festivals and visiting university professor. Full of humour and extremely effective, Merry Music is one of his best-known and most popular works.

£109.99Arctic Funk - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen
Arctic Funk might just as well have been a flashing sequel to a scene from Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story. Popular music but with a difference, as indicated by the title. The work's quiet section temporarily soothes down the heated passion of its two corner movements, but everywhere else action is required throughout. The work was commissioned in 1991 by Troms? Brass. Situated just above the Polar Circle, Troms? is one of Norway's northernmost towns. Topographically, the town probably comes across as freezing cold, but Troms? is famous for its 'warm' night-life. The Composer: In Arctic Funk you might get a feeling of a party that takes place betweenice-rocks and snow-capped mountains.

Galactic Conflict - Timothy Loest
This invigorating work makes great use of percussion. Reminiscent of Holst's famous portrayal of Mars, the driving rhythmic motif is immediately introduced with rhythmic hits reinforced in the upper brass and woodwinds. Several themes are layered for an effect that is easy to achieve with bands at this level. A brief lyrical section provides some creative harmonies which will help develop the musicianship of your band. The opening material then returns for a powerful conclusion. Highly recommended!

Three Meditations - Erik Morales
Abstract, musical, thought provoking these all describe this innovative one-movement work by Erik Morales. Staggered entrances in the brass set the stage for the main theme, and the use of minor chords gives the work the sound of a fantasy film score. This is an excellent way to teach concepts of texture, tension, and release, while engaging your students with some extremely creative writing.

Dies Irae - Elliot Del Borgo
This symphonic poem is based on a chant attributed to Jacopone da Todi (c. 1230 1306) and describes the day of wrath and impending doom, while asking for mercy and salvation. The opening, treated like a Gregorian chant, soon moves into a whirlwind of energy as a large battery of percussion adds to the bold statements in the brass and flourishes in the upper woodwinds. A substantial work for your next concert program.

Family Fugue - Timothy Loest
Inspired by Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf, Family Fugue uses a narrator to blend the familiar folk song Frere Jacques with a delightful story line of the misadventures of three characters: Woodwind, Brass, and Percussion. An educational gem, this innovative work is ideal for teaching major and minor tonality, melodic retrograde, dynamic contrast, and of course, fugue form. Consider using a school administrator or local celebrity as your narrator. Easy to put together, great for recruiting, and forever memorable! (4:24)
