£120.40Xenon - Filippo Ledda
Elemento chimico della Tavola Periodica degli Elementi, lo Xenon fa parte del gruppo dei Gas Nobili. incolore, inodore e decisamente pi pesante dell'aria. In un tubo riempito di gas, emette una luce molto intensa quando eccitato con una scarica elettrica, per cui viene utilizzato per la realizzazione di lampade e dispositivi luminosi. Il brano, diviso in sette sezioni che si susseguono senza soluzione di continuit, descrive un viaggio immaginario che percorre diametralmente l'interno di un atomo di xenon. La prima sezione (On the Edge of Nowhere), partendo dal presupposto che l'atomo una struttura al 99,9% vuota, descrive una realt non solo impercepibile dall'occhio umano ma anche non facilmente razionalizzabile, cos la sottile linea che separa il "nulla" dalla materia visibile rappresentata da un assolo di sax contralto. La seconda e la sesta sezione (Electrons) descrivono la nuvola di elettroni che turbina vorticosamente attorno al nucleo dell'atomo. I temi musicali qui si rincorrono e si scontrano; la ritmica delle percussioni, perlopi metalliche, simula questo moto perpetuo. La terza e la quinta sezione (Luminescence) descrivono la zona di quiete tra gli elettroni e il nucleo. Tutto avvolto da una luce bianca, simile a quella del sole; un momento di stasi, ma solo apparente: la calma durer poco. La sezione centrale (Core) il nucleo del brano. La parte pi interna dell'atomo anche la pi densa: percussioni martellanti, riff solidi, armonie sature, vogliono rappresentare la sua natura stabile e dinamica al tempo stesso. Infine, l'ultima sezione (On the Edge of Everything) rappresenta la conclusione del viaggio: l'uscita al di fuori dall'atomo di xenon con la consapevolezza, stavolta, che la materia visibile soltanto la miliardesima parte della realt, tutto il resto energia. L'assolo di sax, che riappare nelle ultime battute del brano, assume ora un diverso significato: cos' "nulla" e cos' "tutto"? La fine di questo viaggio immaginario, veramente una fine? Xenon la terza composizione della serie che l'autore sta dedicando ai Gas Nobili.

£78.50Leonardo - Concert Band Set - Otto M. Schwarz
Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) was a painter, sculptor, inventor, philosopher and researcher. He is renowned as the original 'Renaissance Man'. 'I will preserve the memory of myself in the minds of others' was one of his maxims. Among his most famous works of art are the Mona Lisa, The Last Supper and the Vitruvian Man. He left an extensive collection of handwritten documents in his notebooks. These books, known as codices, survive in various volumes such as the Codex Atlanticus, Codex Madrid, Codex Trivulzianus etc.). They include sketches of ground-breaking inventions as well as studies and commentaries which span the gamut of human study. The left-handed da Vinci wrote the texts in mirror writing. Through wars and other upheavals, the documents were scattered throughout Europe and much of his work disappeared. Leonardo da Vinci wanted to leave a kind of encyclopaedia for posterity and, although it is estimated that up to 80% of his manuscripts were lost, some 6,000 individual documents survive to this day, the contents of which in many cases were only understood centuries later.

£102.99Three Blind Mice - Bert Appermont
This composition is based on the children's song 'Three Blind Mice', of which the melody is featured in a range of variations: in a canon, in inversion, in minor, transformed, with changing harmonisations and orchestrations, and in different times and tempi. The work consists of three continuous, contrasting movements: 1) Mouse March: The mice cheerfully set off while the original melody is presented as a march. - 2) Hymn: In a tuneful hymn, the wonderful praises of the life of mice are sung. - 3) Catch Me If You Can: In an animated chase, the farmer's wife is trying to catch the mice. Following a stirring acceleration, she cuts off their tails in accordance with the lyrics of the song. I hope this work, with its humorous touch, will be a welcome contribution to the expansion of interesting repertoire for the lower divisions. - Bert Appermont

£64.99Suite Montmartre - Erik Satie
Erik Satie, born in Honfleur in Normandy (France) in 1866 is undoubtedly one of the most striking personalities in the history of French music. He composed in various, often quite divergent, styles. Besides light-hearted,entertaining works he also wrote several serious compositions, among which the three ballets: Parade, Rel che and Les Aventures de Mercure. However, his piano pieces, such as Trois Gymnopdies orGnossiennes will remain his most popular compositions. Satie cooperated with almost all the great artists of his time: Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau, Sergei Diaghilev, Georges Braque and composers Darius Milhaud (Le Groupedes Six) and Claude Debussy. Johan de Meij made an orchestration of three short pieces by Erik Satie: I. Petit Prlude "La Mort de Mr. Mouche" - II. 1re Gymnopdie - III. Rag-Time Parade
