£75.00The New Spirit of '76 (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - McCall Noblitt, Katheryn - Noble, Paul
Though never before published, The New Spirit of '76 march is perhaps Katheryn McCall Noblitt's best known piece, and was among her favorites. Originally composed in 1947 as a piano solo, in 1975, in anticipation of our nation's Bicentennial celebration, she composed a second-piano part for two additional players, wrote patriotic words in both two-part and four-part harmony. The melodies are so well-crafted that they seem very familiar. This arrangement includes short quotations from other Bicentennial favorites - The Star-Spangled Banner, Battle Hymn of the Republic, Dixie, and Yankee Doodle. Dr. Noble directed its premiere performance in 1976 during a music festival, followed by performances with the 500-member Virginia Bicentennial Band and Marching Chorus in Philadelphia, Washington, Alexandria and other cities.

£59.99Memento (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Buckley, Robert
2nd Movement of A Tribute to Arthur DelamontFamed bandmaster Arthur Delamont always programmed a hymn in his concerts and Memento is an homage to that proud tradition. Starting with a simple and reverent solo trumpet and introducing other brass instruments one by one, the introduction has the sound of a brass band. The woodwinds join in and, with the use of rich textures and dynamic scoring, the work builds to a powerful climax and then resolves once again with the solo trumpet. Ideal for festival use, Memento will give your ensemble an opportunity to explore expression and nuance. The second movement of A Tribute to Arthur Delamont, Memento was commissioned by the West Vancouver Youth Band.Duration: 4:00

£75.00Angels' Carol (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul
The music was adapted and arranged by Lowell Mason in 1839 from an older melody which was then believed to have originated from Handel, not least because the theme of the refrain (And heaven and nature sing...) appears in the orchestra opening and accompaniment of the recitative Comfort Ye from Handel's Messiah, and the first four notes match the beginning of the choruses Lift up your heads and Glory to God from the same oratorio. However, Handel did not compose the entire tune. As of the late 20th century, Joy to the World was the most-published Christmas hymn in North America.

Commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, this medley of Civil War-era tunes is cast in a unique and appealing setting for young bands.

£134.99Mountain Lake (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Pallhuber, Hermann
Fantasy on a Wild and Romantic Alpine LandscapeWho among us hasn't experienced the great power that lies in the tranquillity and beauty of the mountains: wide meadows, rugged cliffs, wild, romantic gorges, thundering waterfalls and idyllic mountain lakes? Mountain Lake emphasizes particular aspects of this landscape: the calm, the majesty and depth of the water and all the dreamlike secrets of a mountain lake. Gentle melodies and mysterious sounds lead us to a powerful, peaceful mountain lake that shimmers in splendour the morning light. Its water glitters and sparkles, and you can hear the movement of the waves on the wind. A majestic chorale rises up from the depths of the lake and brings up unexpectedly seductive secrets to bear. The solo passages in saxophone, flute and trumpet are like water creatures dancing in pulsating rhythms that transport us to an alpine dream world. As if from afar, like a hymn to the beauty of the lake the chorale melody returns again and again with driving energy before it leads us back to the endless peace of the mountains and dissipates into silence.Duration: 8:00

£115.00Let the Amen Sound (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Cross, Travis J.
Commissioned by the distinguished Northshore Concert Band under the direction of Mallory Thompson, Let the Amen Sound is based on Joachim Neander's 17th-century chorale "Lobe den Herren," known in English as "Praise to the Lord." The hymn tune is stated first by a solo flute, accompanied by percussion and muted trumpets, evoking the sound of liturgical bells. Three variations follow that represent important milestones common to human existence - the playful exuberance of childhood, the sentimental dance of youth, and the triumphant celebration of lives well lived. A dramatic and rewarding addition to the wind band repertoire. Duration: 7:00
