£62.95Elgin Mills Reflection - David Marlatt
As the title would suggest, this is a reflective piece that is primarily a piano solo with wind and percussion accompaniment. Elgin Mills is the name of street that the composer often travels along on his way to work. In the middle of a farmer's field are two lone trees that stand majestic in all seasons. These trees were the inspiration for this lyrical slow piece. The piano part is not difficult and offers the chance at some expressive playing.

£73.50Cortge and Fanfare - Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov / arr. John Cacavas, adapted by Ralph Satz
Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) has employed the lovely fable by Ostrovsky, which is set in a legendary country in pagan times, to weave a fantasy of great charm. The Snow Maiden asks her parents, King Winter and the Spring Fairy, to allow her to join the world of humans at the Royal Court of Berendey. Her desire to possess human emotions ultimately leads her to be melted by Yarilo, the Sun-God. The opulence of the Berendey Court is typified by this stirring wherein the Czar is ushered in first by a broad, oriental theme that gives way to a flourish of the court trumpets. He is then greeted affectionately by his loyal subjects in a typically Russian choral theme. This version for band has been arranged by John Cacavas and adapted by Ralph Satz.

£59.99A Caribbean Sailing Trip (Flexible Ensemble - Score and Parts) - Schaars, Peter Kleine
With this composition in a rumba style, Peter Kleine Schaars invites us to enjoy a relaxed sailing trip in the waters of the Caribbean. The feeling of freedom on the boat is mirrored by an extensive melody surrounded by a palette of colourful harmonies the shades of the water while the clever percussion sets the course of the ship. Who wouldn't dream of such an adventure? Although the musical themes and accompaniments have been constructed from combinations of rhythmic cells that occur less often, the composition sounds very natural and flowing. Assuming the rhythmic cells 1 to 8 are part of the basic skills of your band, in this composition, the accent rather lies on cells 9 to 13. The instrumentation is created in such a way that these new cells occur in all parts, so that all musicians of the band become familiar with this rhythmic development.Duration: 2.30
