    The Sound of Unity (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Houben, Kevin

    Creating a community through music making: that, in short, is the essence of The Sound of Unity. Kevin Houben was commissioned to write this work by the Belgian municipality of Riemst. The music highlights the charm of the town, its sights, its splendid scenery, and much more... But above all the strong community spirit of the inhabitants of Riemst is beautifully expressed. For half of this work, the composer has provided an optional two-part choral passage for mixed choir. Breathtaking!Duration: 6:30

    Queen of the Dolomites (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob

    The introductory theme of this composition echoes the majestic size of the mountains that are visible from the picture-postcard Cortina d'Ampezzo, the so called "Queen of the Dolomites". Then we hear a lyrical theme, in which we feel the peacefulness of the surrounding countryside. We can even hear the hustle and bustle of the popular ski resort, before the two opening themes return in reverse order to bring this musical sight-seeing excursion to a close.Duration: 6:45

    About Reynard the Fox (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Houben, Kevin

    We find ourselves initially at the court of King Nobel, where all the animals have arrived for a court hearing. Reynard the Fox has plenty to answer for but he seems determined to avoid his punishment... Kevin Houben chose this fable as the theme for his programmatic work, in which the musical setting of the fox forms the main theme. But King Nobel, Braun the bear, Murner the cat and Grimbart the badger also take a musical turn. About Reynard the Fox promises excitement and adventure right to the last note!Duration: 9:30

    Swaying in the West Wind (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Yagisawa, Satoshi

    This piece was commissioned by Japan Ground Self Defense Force Western Army Band. In the programme note for the premiere the composer wrote: "I am always impressed by the expansive earth and sparkling ocean scenery when I come to Kyushu. I have met many local people here and they are all expressive and energetic. I wrote this dramatic piece to convey to the whole of Japan the memory of my experience here, swaying in the west wind. I wrote this, hoping that the Self Defense Force will forge closer ties with the community through this piece." Eastern drama felt in the west wind!Duration: 8:00

    By the River (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan

    Jan Van der Roost and the commissioner of this work have strong personal ties, making By the River a very personal work for both of them. The first part is pastoral and describes the rural character of what is actually an industrial region. The next movement, a dynamic allegro that creates an exciting contrast to the first. All instruments are put to good use, letting everyone have their moment in the limelight. All the interesting thematic and melodic elements Van der Roost creates will keep the audience engaged through to the very last note!Duration: 9:45

    The Light Shines in the Darkness (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Milner, Barry

    A lighthouse stands upon a shoreline to be a beacon for all ships coming into a harbour. This beacon guides ships to safety that otherwise might have been destroyed by the rocks of the shoreline. This beacon also serves as a hope to those ships that are lost at sea. The light also refers to wisdom, compassion, and love. John 1:5 of the bible states that, "The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it" (NIV). The light in this passage refers to Jesus who was trying to reach out to a world that did not understand and was looking for hope.Duration: 6.00

    March for A History of the English-Speaking Peoples (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Walton, William - Noble, Paul

    In 1959, William Walton was commissioned to compose music for the opening and closing credits of a television series based on Winston Churchill's History of the English-speaking Peoples. The resulting work, March for the History of the English-Speaking Peoples, was recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra in May of that year and later published by Oxford University Press. However, the television project never materialised, and consequently Walton's score, which might have become one of his more familiar among popular audiences through television exposure, was all but forgotten. With the moderate surge in popularity that Walton's music enjoyed in the last decade of the twentieth century, this and other little-known pieces have become available for consideration. Concert Bands will enjoy the majesty and drama of this piece, very appropriate for concerts, ceremonies, and graduations.

    Prelude and Fugue (The Spitfire) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Walton, William - Noble, Paul

    The Prelude and Fugue (The Spitfire) by William Walton, written to accompany the film, The First of the Few, was the film story of the designer of the Spitfire fighter aircraft, R. J. Mitchell. This work was lifted, almost bodily out of the film score: exceptionally (for film music) it needed hardly any modification to turn it into a first-rate concert piece. The prelude, called by Stephen Lloyd one of Walton's finest marches, is the music heard over the opening credit titles in the movie. A central lyrical solo depicts the exhaustion and dying by illness of the aircraft's designer R. J. Mitchell. The fugue is used to describe the making of the Spitfire, and then the patriotic march returns joined with the fugue to mark the completion of the fighter aircraft. The majestic march-like drama of the Prelude is well-suited for graduation and other ceremonial events, and the total piece is a tour de force for contest performance.

    The Barber of Seville Goes to the Devil (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Jacob, Gordon - Noble, Paul

    Gordon Jacob (1895-1984), one of Malcolm Arnold's teachers at the Royal College of Music, was represented in the first Hoffnung. This rumbustious parody of Rossini's style was composed in 1960 for the BBC Concert Orchestra, which introduced it under Vilm Tausky in a broadcast concert that year. (Tausky added the opening bars, in fact, with the composer's approval, which are included in this arrangement.) The piece is a no-holds-barred workout on familiar material such as could be brought off only by a certified master of the modern orchestra with a free-wheeling imaginativeness to match his/her technical skill. Concert Bands and their audiences will get in on the fun of this rousing parody, exploring everything from a Spanish dance to a Street parade.
