£78.00Handel in the Strand (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Grainger, Percy Aldridge - Rohrer, Thomas P.
This delightful Grainger classic was written to depict a jolly old George Friedrich Handel careening down the Strand (the theatre district of London) accompanied by the English popular music of the day. Given the original instrumentation and label as a chamber piece in Grainger's original publication, this transcription is taken directly from Grainger's "four-some" edition of 1912, transposed down a step from G to F major. It is scored to best depict the light (and sometimes percussive) quality of the piano along with the lyrical flow of the strings and the general character of chamber music. Ultimately, the "room music" quality of the original shines through in this skilful transcription while depicting the spirit of the piece in a way that Grainger might have chosen.Duration: 3:35

£84.99Tochter Zion (See the Conquering Hero Comes) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Handel & Tchaikovsky - De Haan, Jan
Tochter Zion, also known as See the Conquering Hero Comes, is the most famous chorus from the oratorio Judas Maccabaeus (1746) by the composer George Frideric Handel (1685-1759). The heroic epic based on the Biblical story about commander-in-chief Judas Maccabaeus, was used by Handel to celebrate the English victory over the rebellious Scottish. The first performance of this patriotic work - written in the pleasing, rich baroque style that Handel's music is known for - was conducted by himself; the success was huge. The chorus See the Conquering Hero Comes was added later, in 1748, drawn from another oratorio (Joshua).Duration: 2:30

£41.50See the Conquering Hero Comes (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Handel, George Frideric - Kennedy, Edward
See the Conquering Hero Comes was composed by the great baroque composer George Friedrich Handel and is a chorus from his popular Oratorio Judas Maccabaeus. The work was composed in 1746 and was first performed in Covent Garden, London in 1747. In 1884, Edmund Louis Budry wrote new words to this chorus to create the very stirring and well known hymn "Thine Be the Glory." This theme and variations arrangement of Handel's famous piece features all sections of the band and makes a very effective concert opener or finale for young bands.Duration: 2.45

£49.50Introduction And Dance (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Handel, George Frideric
George Frederick Handel (1685-1759) originally wrote this "Sarabande" as the third movement of his Suite No. 4 for harpsichord. Ralph Gingery expertly arranged this rich stately music (used as the theme in the film "Barry Lyndon") for successful performance by younger bands. However, the work also remains a rewarding and valuable piece for more mature ensembles.

£202.99I Shall Love But Thee (Vocal Solo (Soprano) with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan
I Shall Love But Thee is an occasional work in the literal sense of the word, since it was originally written on the occasion of the composer's youngest son's wedding. The texts, by William Shakespeare, inspired Jan Van der Roost to compose profound and appealing music, largely in the style of Henry Purcell (in the first part) and Georg Friedrich Handel (in the second part)--although no literal quotations have been used. The rather rare combination of soprano and concert band makes this piece a unique addition to the repertoire! Duration: 10.30

Handel's Tochter Zion is one of the most beautiful hymns ever composed.

£79.99Fanfare Prelude (O God, Our Help in Ages Past) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Curnow, James
Fanfare Prelude: O God, Our Help in Ages Past is based on the hymn-tune St. Anne, which was used by G.F. Handel in the Chandos anthem, O Praise the Lord, and by J.S. Bach in his triple fugue in E-flat, The St. Anne Fugue. James Curnow's Fanfare Prelude: O God, Our Help in Ages Past captures the thoughts of this magnificent hymn, which speaks of America's reliance upon God. The unusual 4/4 meter setting with artfully crafted re-harmonisations and lush counterpoint gives each listener cause to reflect on the importance and meaning of this melody to patriotic Americans everywhere. Inspired!Duration: 4.00
