£82.50See Jack Slide - Robert E. Foster
This original trombone feature, a "smear" for trombones, was written in memory of C. Jack McCurley, a young, energetic, fun-loving trombone player who lost his life in an accident. He was a member of his middle school band in Jefferson City, Missouri, and his fellow students and teachers commissioned this work as a memorial to him. But they wanted a happy piece because he was a happy person.

£104.50Parade Militaire - Jules Massenet
As a gifted young composer, Jules Massenet (1842-1912) wrote several operas that were never produced or printed; but at the age of 25, he enjoyed his first opera production in Paris. Following that success he became a popular and successful part of the Paris music scene. In 1878, he was appointed professor of advanced composition at the conservatory, and it was while he held this position that he composed his Parade Militaire for orchestra. This lively tune is full of life, energy and subtleties, with great style and elegance, and some sudden dynamic surprises.

£82.50The Tarantula - Barry E. Kopetz
Patient, cunning and sinister. The traits of this fascinating creature are displayed as you hear him stalk his victim! The slow, careful movements of the tarantula are portrayed by precise accents, articulations and steady tempos. The tightly balanced melody, accompaniment and dynamics create a mood of mystery and foreboding. This is not the soundtrack of a horror movie but it could be. Guaranteed to be a favorite, unless youre the prey!

£121.00Tock - Kenneth Froelich
Tock is a single movement work for concert band that uses percussion and asymmetrical rhythms to mimic the "tocking" of a broken clock. The repetition of melodies and of motive fragments are used to establish a regular pulse; however, while this pulse is steady, it is not even. A five-four time signature, a syncopated bass line and irregular phrases are all used to offset the central beat of the music. Much like the clock, the end result is a dance that seems consistent but is in fact "broken." Its a work that is both fascinating and creative, excellent cutting-edge writing for upper-level ensembles.

£104.50Esprit Du Corps March - John Philip Sousa
Fans and march enthusiasts will be delighted with this wonderfully stylish rediscovered march. At the time this march was written, Sousa was living in Philadelphia and had not yet begun his Marine Band career - but he was an accomplished composer who already had 34 publications to his credit. However, the march was not published for band until after he left the Marine Band and formed his professional band. This march, listed as Opus 45, is a fitting tribute to the great talent of the young John Philip Sousa, and to the esprit de corps of bands everywhere.

£71.50The Russian Sailor's Dance - Robert E. Foster Jr.
Another classical addition to the Achievement Series that retains the sound and excitement of the original, but is carefully scored and notated for success with young players. As with the original, it begins slow and mysteriously, gradually increasing speed as it builds up to the presto and an explosive conclusion that will bring the audience to their feet. This is the perfect piece to introduce an exciting classic to your young musicians and impress audiences.

£71.50Shenandoah - Robert E. Foster
The beautiful song Shenandoah is an early American folk song dating back to at least the early 1800s. Its been known by several different titles, including Oh, Shenandoah and Across the Wide Missouri. Clearly a part of American tradition, it remains one of Americas most enduring and popular folk songs. This arrangement has been carefully arranged for the ability of young players but will also sound great with more experienced ensembles as a warm-up or lyric concert selection.
