Ancient Visions - Roland Barrett
After a brief lyrical introduction, Roland Barrett begins a rhythmic ostinato that sets the stage for the heroic statements made by the brass. Open 5ths become very effective in the simple contrapuntal writing that adds to the overall energy. Brief solo trumpet is used in the lyrical middle section before a climax presented by full band. The final section brings back material from the opening with a key change that adds even more intensity to the exciting conclusion. An easy, yet effective contest or festival work.

Night Flight of the Gargoyles - Timothy Loest

After a vengeful introduction, the aggressive theme takes off, supported bybombastic percussion. Each section gets its say with the melody, and your clarinetists will love playing the bloodcurdling screams (played by removing the mouthpiece and barrel). A bold and dramatic work for concert or contest!(2:20)

£233.99Suite Dreams - Steven Bryant
For the second year in a row, composer Steven Bryant took home top prize in the prestigious NBA/Revelli Composition Contest.

£120.40Intermissions - Daniele Carnevali
This piece was commissioned by the organising committee of the "La Prime Luz 1812" national band contest, held in Bertiolo (Udine), as the compulsory piece for category A. It consists of three movements and, rated as a first international category or national excellence grade piece, it requires the appropriate variety of timbres and instrumentalists with the necessary skills. The themes, enhanced by the use of unusual tones and compound beats, are often broken, interrupted: hence the title of the piece, intermissions, meaning interruptions. The unifying element is the musical language that, through the use of artificial modes and fourths, seeks to create a balance between tensions of differing intensity and nature.
