Aubade Joyeuse (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Lane, Philip - Noble, Paul
Aubade Joyeuse was originally scored for brass band and commissioned by the Three Choirs Festival in 1986 for performance in Gloucester Cathedral. It is in the form of an introduction and allegro and aims to give the impression of a quiet early morning that soon gets a lot busier with people, traffic and general activity rising towards the end to a frenzied fugato climax. This Wind Band arrangement is taken from a setting for orchestra by the composer.

The Sun Will Rise Again (Concert Band - Score & Parts) - Sparke, Philip
The composer writes:On March 11th 2011 a massive 9.0- magnitude earthquake occurred off the coast of north-eastern Japan. I'm writing these programme notes barely a week later and the death toll caused by the quake and resulting tsunami already exceeds 6000, with thousands of people still unaccounted for. I have many friends associated with many bands throughout Japan and one of these, Yutaka Nishida, suggested I write a piece to raise money to help those affected by the disaster. I was immediately attracted by the idea and have arranged Cantilena (a brass band piece recently commissioned by the Grenland International Brass Festival, Norway) for wind band, giving it a new title to honour my friends in the Land of the Rising Sun. I will be donating royalties from this piece to the Japanese Red Cross Society Emergency Relief Fund and am delighted to say that my distributors, De Haske, who will generously also donate all net profits from sales of this piece, have pledged a substantial advance payment to the Red Cross so that what little help this project generates can be immediate. It is my sincere wish that this 'Band Aid' project will allow wind bands around the world support the people of Japan, where bands are a way of life for many, in this difficult time.- Philip SparkeDuration: 4:30

Amazing Grace (Concert Band - Score and Parts)
David Shaffer has created a spectacular setting of this classic hymn for younger musicians. As a graceful introduction leads into the flowing opening statement of the melody, the arrangement grows with dramatic energy throughout. Although simple, the classic David Shaffer harmonies and counter-melodic writing make this arrangement a joy to teach and to perform. How better to teach the concepts of legato style and phase development. Especially appropriate for holiday concerts, this arrangement is also a perfect choice for both concert and festival performances.

Dances Fantastique
This exciting new work for concert band is a set of three delightful dances.
