£58.50Sea Trilogy - Elliot Del Borgo
An excellent new festival work from Elliot Del Borgo! Based on three songs inspired by the sea, it opens with exciting woodwind flourishes and an excellent use of percussion. The middle section is a beautiful setting of Eternal Father, Strong to Save that captures the essence of the piece while providing some interesting new harmonies. The last section is a fantasy on The Drunken Sailor that is quite effective and worthy of your utmost consideration.

£82.95Cycle of the Werewolf - Jeremy S. Martin
A surrealistic tour-de-force for concert band, this work sizzles from the first note to the last. Inspired by the Stephen King story of the same name, the work shows the contemporary concert band at its best. Dark, foreboding, and yet triumphant, this is a can't miss selection for any concert.

£33.50Nightfall in Camp
Nightfall in Camp is a very clever arrangement that combines The Last Post, and the hymn tune Unto the Hills. The band parts are very reasonable for young players but the solo part should be played by a more advanced player. This piece can be performed at Remembrance Day services, or on other solemn or dignified occasions.

£50.50On Pinta Island - Frank McKinney
provides ultimate flexibility for ensembles with incomplete instrumentation or odd combinations. These pieces are playable by as few as 5 woodwind, brass, or string players with or without percussion. This creates the opportunity for a mixed quintet to perform these titles but also allows for performance for 10-15 players up to full a band/orchestra with parts doubling. Great for music camps, contest use or any band room that has non-standard instrumentation. This slow ballad depicts the final days of Lonesome George,who died in 2012 asthe last of thegiantGalapagos tortoises of Pinta Island.An opening Part 4 solo is the prelude for an extremely expressive melody, which builds to an emotional finish.Your students will be challenged both emotionally and musically with this simple but descriptive lyrical piece.

£170.00Second Symphony - Alfred Reed
Commissioned in the late Fall of 1975, work on the SECOND SYMPHONY was not begun until the Summer of 1977, when the score was completed in sketch form in three months, July through September. The instrumentation was begun in the late Winter of that same year and the Full Score completed on March 27th, 1978. The first performance took place in Fairchild Auditorium on the campus of Michigan State University on May 6th, 1978, by the Michigan State University Symphonic Band under the direction of Kenneth G. Bloomquist. The symphony is a single-movement work embracing three distinct sections. The first, marked is a freely constructed passacaglia built on a flowing theme derived from the tone row that underlies the entire score: Bb-F-E-Ab-G-D-Db-C-Cb-Gb-Eb-A, and which is developed in alternating variations leading to a powerful climax at its close. The second section is, in reality, a tense, hard-driving double fugue characterized by a constant march-like rhythm underlying the further development of the original theme and its countersubject in both duple and triple meters. This section, marked also ends in an overwhelming climax and then dies away, preparing for the third and final section. This final portion of the music, marked is based upon two long, lyric themes, also derived from the row, that alternate with occasional reminders of some of the thematic material from the second section, now transformed into a rich, glowing and relaxed tonal tapestry woven together from the myriad of tonal colors available in contemporary scoring practice for the winds. At the very end, after a fortissimo re-statement of the theme in its original form as derived from the row, there is a gradual ebbing of the flood of tone from the full ensemble as the various choirs drop out one by one, leaving only a dark, warm color of low Clarinets, Baritone and Tuba, hinting at the opening of the symphony, together with a last reminder of the original motif in the Bells and Vibraphone, suggesting, for the work as a whole, an arch-form.

£103.00Suite on Canadian Folk Songs - Morley Calvert
Suite on Canadian Folk Songs was written as a Centennial project in 1967 and originally scored for brass band, although the music of the first movement had appeared in Suite from the Monteregian Hills in 1961. Until this edition, the concert band version has remained unpublished, although it has attracted the admiration of many band directors. The suite is in three movements; the first and last being arrangements of French Canadian folk songs, and the middle movement an arrangement of folk song from the province of Newfoundland.
