£104.99Little Concerto (Flexible Solo with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Waignein, Andre
Little Concerto is a most useful solo item due to the fact that the key and the range of the solo part mean it can be performed by several different instruments, from flute to baritone. Little Concerto consists of three movements: an Allegro written in classical style, which alternates between tutti and soli passages; a second movement, sweet and calm, to fully display the richness of the solo instrument's sound colours and finally an Allegro giocoso. It is a fairly simple piece and is therefore particularly suitable for young or inexperienced soloists who want to display their artistic skills.Duration: 7.00

£68.00Der Tod und das Machen (Death and the Maiden) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Schubert, Franz - De Meij, Johan
Within the history of art song, the 600+ lieder of Franz Schubert stand supreme, though they were often intended purely for performance in his intimate circle of friends. Schubert arranged Der Tod und das Madchen for string quartet (an indication that he was pleased with the song) in 1824. Johan de Meij has adapted the second movement for concert band, where the majestic Death has an even more impressive appearance in the dark glowing sound of winds. Duration: 3.15

£94.99O Christmas Tree (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Well, David
The tradition of the Christmas tree in Western Europe dates back to a time long before any Christianization had taken place. During the severely cold winter nights, so it was believed, evil spirits tried to 'kill' nature. Needle-leaved trees were the only ones which kept their green colour throughout the year, and therefore became symbols of immortality. These 'living' trees, said to be the work of benign spirits, were brought into people's houses to ward off evil, life-threatening powers. In the 14th century people first started to decorate Christmas trees. It was a pagan custom, originated by the inhabitants of Alsace. This custom was taken over by the Church in the course of the 15th and 16th century. At first the decoration consisted mainly of edibles, such as apples and wafers, but later small presents were added. Legend has it that the reformer Martin Luther was the first person to decorate a Christmas tree with candles. The flickering candle flames were meant to create the image of a starry sky in which Christ's apparition could be recognized. The German organ-player Ernst Anschutz from Leipzig was the first person to notate the song 'O Tannenbaum', the melody being a well-known folk song. Next to 'Stille Nacht' 'O Tannenbaum' is the most famous German Christmas song, now known throughout the world. In the United States of America the melody of 'O Tannenbaum' has even been used in four States (among which the State of Maryland) for their State song. In David Well's arrangement the song is first heard as many of us know it. After this introduction, however, it is transformed into a solid rock version, and the beat has been changed. In the second part the familiar three-four time is back, but here the rhythm is different from the original. After the richly ornamented rock beat the basic theme can be heard once again and the composition is concluded in a festive manner.Duration: 3:15

£132.00Andante e Alla Marcia (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Dvorak, Antonin - De Meij, Johan
Dvorak's Symphony No.4 (1874) was a pivotal work in the career of this famous Bohemian composer. In the work Dvorak is finally freed from the influence of other composers and succeeds in producing a work in his own unique style. The slow introduction of the second movement (Andante sostenuto e molto cantabile) however clearly showed the influence of Wagner's Tannhauser, but the l'Alla Marcia du Scherzo is again typical Dvorak. You can also hear the obvious references to the traditional music of Bohemia which played an important part in late works of Dvorvak. A terrific classical work for your concert repertoire.
