£67.95Attack of the Zombies - Chris Bernotas
This is such a fun composition for beginning students. It is easy with an introduction to some chromatics, but very easily done. They will love shouting out, "Look Out!

£183.20Grim - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen
Grim was commissioned by Sandviken Ungdomskorps in 1998. Grim is a folkloristic pastiche, but also with a jazz-flavoured inspiration. The piece ends with the folk-music played on top of a theme from a march: "Sandvikguttenes marsj" to salute the band that commissioned the music. The title is taken from the word "grimen", a kind of troll that lives in water. He teaches fiddlers how to play if they offer him food a Thursday night in a north-faced waterfall.

£164.99A Sevenoaks Suite - Philip Sparke
A Sevenoaks Suite was commissioned by the Sevenoaks and Tonbridge Concert Band from Kent in the south-east of England. The suite describes 3 famous landmarks in the Sevenoaks and Tonbridge area: 'Knole Park', situated to the south-east of Sevenoaks. 'The Chapel - Tonbridge School': This movement centres around a hymn-like chorale, depicting the years of worship that have taken place within the chapel, and 'The Vine Bandstand' suggesting the type of music often played in bandstands. It is in march form, but is not actually a march throughout, veering off into other styles before ending emphatically.

£119.99The Rise of the Phoenix - Thomas Doss
Severe funding cuts in 2015 had a huge impact on Austria's military bands. This piece is about the resurrection of these bands following a political decision in favour of the renowned military music organization structure in Austria. 'The Rise of the Phoenix' is an impressive piece, full of bright, colourful melodies and an incredible positive ambiance. There is a beautiful slow middle section with a touch of romance, leading to a spectacular maestoso finale in which you can hear a hint of a famous military signal (as also used in Von Supp's 'Light Cavalry Overture'). A positive and challenging piece full of joy and colour!

£65.00Popov's Parade - Duncan Stubbs
Combining references to 20th-century Russian music with slapstick humour, 'Popov's Parade' is a humble tribute to a great international artist, Oleg Popov, one of the world's best-known clowns. The quote from Schubert's March Militaire parodies Stravinsky's use of this same fragment in his own Circus Polka. Suitable for intermediate level (Grade 3/4) Symphonic Wind Band.

£149.40Hei New York - Lillebjørn Nilsen
"Hi New York" was released for the first time in 1982 as a part of the LP-recording "Original Nilsen", one of the greatest successes by Norwegian artist Lillebjrn Nilsen. Unlike most of the music by Nilsen, this one is written in a latin-flavour. The original recording is strongly characterized by extensive use of horns which makes the song itself very suited for Concert Band.
