£89.99Serenade Romantic - Joseph Turrin
This exceptionally unique work by Joseph Turrin is composed in memory of Howard Hanson, one of the 20th century's greatest proponents of American music. While decidedly modern in sound, the mood of this piece adheres to Hanson's own belief in the value of "warm blooded music" rather than the pursuit of coldly abstract, purely cerebral music. Hanson's influence on 20th century music and the post-Romantic style is clearly evident in SERENADE ROMANTIC.If you've ever wished for something genuinely different for your higher level group to explore you owe it to yourself to check out this remarkable piece.

£239.99Attila! (part 1 from 'Sinfonia Hungarica') - Jan Van der Roost
Sinfonia Hungarica is a three-movement symphony that depicts the history of Hungary. All three movements were inspired by historical key figures, wars, and other important events from this country. This symphony is a celebration of Hungary's millennium in 2001.ATTILA, King of the Huns, often named "The scourge of God," is the central figure of the first movement, mainly characterized by fear, threat, aggression, and cruelty. Attila's brother, Buda, however, has a more heroic theme, while his beloved wife, Rika, has a lyrical melody. The exciting ending of this opening movement illustrates the dreaded speed of Attila's troops: they pursued their victims and killed them all!

£319.95Labyrinth - Carter Pann
Composed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Karel Husa's iconic Music for Prague 1968, LABYRINTH is an expansive, expressive four-movement work of symphonic weight and scope. Polyphonic webs of searching melody coalesce into enveloping tapestries of sound as the piece unfolds. Pann describes the epic final movement as "a gargantuan crescendo like the last movement of Respighi's The Pines of Rome or Ravel's Bolero [that] should leave the audience and players sonically drenched by the end." LABYRINTH is an enthralling experience for ensembles and listeners alike, and one that will linger with them long after the last chord fades from the concert hall.
