When Men and Mountains Meet - Scott Watson
Commissioned by the East Stroudsburg Area School District, this work displays the effort and determination it must have taken to establish this community in the Pocono mountains with wall upon wall of rock to be blasted and great masses of earth to be moved. It opens with a broad, somewhat dissonant statement representing the settlers first intimidating encounter with the mountain, followed by a faster, insistent theme as the area is settled and developed. An impressive work for young bands that makes us aware that truly great things are done "when men and mountains meet."

£54.99Woodside Fanfare - Daniel Jones
Several teaching opportunities are presented in this concert opener and the unison rhythms make it an excellent piece for inexperienced bands. Each wind player must play eighth notes; however, the eighth notes are always on consecutive pitches, thus making the piece accessible to beginners. It also contains a first and second ending, accents, and several dynamic changes as well as harmonies that are very basic and easily obtainable for young musicians.

£82.50Resumption March - John Philip Sousa
1879 was a very eventful year for John Philip Sousa. He was a successful conductor, conducting Gilbert and Sullivans musical comedy, H.M.S. Pinafore, the year before he became the leader of the United States Marine Band, and it was the year he got married. It was also the year he composed Resumption March. The title was a reference to the resumption of the United States to use gold and silver coins following the post-Civil War inflation and depression. The march was published the same year in Philadelphia by the J. W. Pepper music publishing firm.

£104.50Nemesis - Gary D. Ziek
In Greek mythology, Nemesis was the god of retribution and vengeance. It has come to mean an unstoppable foe, an unbeatable rival, an implacable enemy. The piece is based on a descending three note motive using the intervals: perfect fourth, minor second. It is marked "with malice", and is highly volatile in nature, projecting the powerful and ominous feelings associated with the title.

£54.99The Hammer of Thor - Darren W. Jenkins
The Hammer of Thor is a musical work that depicts the power and might of the well-known Norse god Thor and his thunderous weapon. Depicted in mythology as one of the most fearsome weapons of all time, the legend tells of it being capable of leveling huge mountains. Performed with energy and force by young bands, it will certainly be as impressive as the hammer described in legend and lore.
