£121.00Turkish Fragments - Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov
Pursuing his interest in the Turkish peoples, the composer created this work for orchestra in 1930. It is a richly melodic suite notable for its characteristically oriental turns of phrase. This work is presented in four movements: Caravan, which depicts a steady journey over rolling sand dunes; At Rest, alternately tranquil and spirited; Night, serene in nature with a slight touch of mystery; and Festival, a dance-like finale with unyielding exuberance. All the movements use material from folk music of the region combined with a wonderful pallet of wind-instrumental colors. An exotic and colorful Turkish fabric in music.

£91.99Of Heroes And Demons - Rob Romeyn
An epic programmatic work that captures the fight between good and evil. The work opens with a heroic fanfare that commands attention. From here the music subsides into a beautifully lyric chorale section. Our musical story begins to unfold as the "demons" theme is introduced. The theme is developed and expanded, creating a feeling of unresolved conflict, ultimately leading to a thunderous conclusion. From here, the heroic theme returns, stronger and more developed this time as our battle between good and evil comes to its conclusion, but not before a brief final battle creating a dramatic end to the piece that will have your audiences on their feet. Destined to be a classic for concert and festival use, cross cueing is used to insure success in most performance settings. Don't miss this exceptional addition to the concert band repertoire.

Catalyst - Rob Romeyn
Driving rhythms, contemporary harmonies, stark contrasts, and multi-meter are the "Catalyst" for excitement and intrigue in this epic programmatic work by Rob Romeyn. We begin with an explosion of rhythmic energy and motion. From here, an intriguing melodic theme is introduced amid a lighter texture. As the music develops, this melodic theme is expanded upon rhythmically and through a variety of harmonic variations. A secondary theme enters with a light and almost transparent quality, offering an opportunity to showcase expressive musicality in a mature setting. Further development then ensues, with the music growing ever stronger and stronger, with the emotion practically leaping off of the page. We end with a hair-raising contemporary sounding ending that is sure to have your audience on their feet. Do not miss this outstanding addition to the repertoire for concert or festival use!

£59.95Supremacy - Sean O'Loughlin
Supremacy is an engaging work for the beginning concert band. The piece provides many important teaching opportunities to reinforce rhythm, counting, and dynamics in the students' development. The rhythms in the wind parts are limited to quarter, half, and whole notes, and the music incorporates basic dissonance and resolution into the fabric of the piece. A perfect piece for the students' first experience performing at contest/festival.

The Last Chivalrous Knight - Richard Summers
Knights in shining armor, damsels in distress and jousting come to mind when you hear this original composition from composer Richard Summers. Students are intrigued by the music of the Medieval Times, and it has crept its way into many video game themes and epic sports themes. This piece brings it all into a format for young bands to enjoy. Richard has provided some nice modal writing and excellent counterpoint to give it the flavor of the time period. Your band will sound full with this program piece that can also be used for contest or festival.

£104.99Call of the Valley - Jacob de Haan
The inspiration for this three-part work goes back to the International European Youth Wind Music Festival, of which the patron has been Jacob de Haan several times. It begins in a festive march tempo, then sacred music, instrumental groups playing off_x005F_x001E_stage and a little march for brass and _x005F_x001D_flutes. The third movement is a parade in which the various sections of the ensemble head towards the stage from different directions. Even without the effective choreography of the musicians, Call of the Valley is an impressive concert band composition.
