£109.99Pomp and Circumstance No.3, Op.39 (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Elgar, Edward - Kummer, Michael
The English composer Sir Edward Elgar wrote the five Pomp and Circumstance marches between 1901 and 1930, the time of the British Empire, when the colonial and strategic world power of England was at its peak. March No. 3 in C minor, although less well-known then March No.1, was regarded by the composer as the most successful of the marches in terms of composition technique and musical content. The dark colours of the minor tonality and the hopeful sounding cantabile theme are extremely impressive, giving the march its unique character. This is a great chance to bring British pomp and splendour to your performance.

£66.95Confession (Movement 2 from Symphony of Prayer) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Schmidt, J. Eric
This remarkable composition is the second movement to Eric Schmidt's colourful and dramatic symphony for band. A dark and energetic work, Confession is based on a three-note motive, beginning with a menacing opening, but finally yielding to a beautiful chorale that provides a transition to a somber and reverent conclusion. Brilliant orchestration and well-crafted use of creative thematic material make this a most expressive work. Thanksgiving, the popular third movement of the Symphony of Prayer is also available and makes an excellent choice when performed following Confession.Duration: 6.00
