£68.80Oh Beautiful
The melody known as "A Ya Zain" (also "Aya Zein" or "Ayazein,") is most often credited as an Egyptian folk song. The tune is easily recognizable as having Arabic origins by its use of the double harmonic minor scale (containing two augmented 2nd intervals). This arrangement gives us a good opportunity to expose young players to non-western tonalities. The use of short melodic sequences and repetition in the melody make it especially appropriate for young instrumentalists

£65.99Repercussions - Robert W. Smith
An exciting work for concert band by Robert W. Smith. The term "repercussions" is defined as an effect, influence or result that is produced by an event or action. Repercussions uses this concept of "cause and effect" in its creative approach. Rhythmic figures introduced in the winds are echoed in the percussion. Antiphonal percussion effects throughout create new layers of effect and interest as they interact throughout the piece. Accessible to most concert bands, the driving rhythms and musical interplay of this energetic work offer multiple teaching opportunities in a very appealing setting.

Cathedral Music - Anton Bruckner
With its bare fifths at the opening, the rapid harmonic transitions to none-related chords, the modal harmonies, and the majestic ceremonial mood, "Ecce Sacerdos Magnus" is one of Bruckner's most powerful works. Originally a liturgical choral piece, this setting is skillfully arranged for band, so they too may experience the solemnity, mysticism and deep religious feeling of Bruckner's work. Compelling!

A Million Suns at Midnight - Steven Bryant
Though somewhat dark and dramatic in character, A Million Suns at Midnight is ultimately a hopeful, optimistic work, evoking the struggles of humanity to grow, achieve, and evolve, finally overcoming our fear (and its most common manifestation: violence) to transcend our physical and mental boundaries. Individuals now possess an unprecedented technological capability for both creation and destruction, and we must ensure that the million suns at midnight are not those of fiery destruction, but of bright hope. A Million Suns at Midnight is an appropriate and dramatic concert closer, and is constructed so as to require minimal rehearsal time with the full ensemble, allowing each section to work on their parts separately and assemble the whole quickly and confidently. NOTE: This work is available as a rental item directly from the composer. For details, e-mail [email protected]. The score is also available separately for purchase from Hal Leonard.

£149.40Joyful Joyful - Ludwig van Beethoven
Beethoven's everlasting melody keeps popping up in different arrangements. This one is inspired by the version made to the movie "Sister Act". Gospel at its best!You may use this piece both in church concerts and entertainmentsshows.This is a fine number to practice sixteenths syncopations. Often, most players have similar rhythm and phrasing, but with different pitches. Extended harmonies and ensemble balance are also elements to work on. Two groups havespecial roles: * If you perform the arrangement instrumental, 1st Altosax and Tenorsax are both important. The solos may be played as written or improvised. There is also an optional womens choir arrangement (SSAA) includedin the set.* The bass line is also challenging and very important. Make it groove!

£174.10Tognum Power - Jerker Johansson
The German engine manufacturer MTU Friedrichshafen, which long has had its own Concert Band, in 2006 became part of Tognum AG, which commissioned Tognum Power in 2009. That both companies produce powerful engines naturally was a heavy influence on a piece for Concert Band, which indeed is a most powerful type of ensemble. The character of the piece is heroic, alternating between lyrical and dramatic sections. Tognum Power was premiered in Friedrichshafen on April 12, 2009, by the MTU Orchestra (MTU-Blserensemble) under Reiner Hobe.
