£71.50Sing Hi Down - Barry E. Kopetz
The original title of this charming folk song is The Two Little Sisters, and it contains a chant-like phrase "sing hi down." This particular lyric is sung with great energy as it carries much of the joy that prevails throughout the song. After a majestic introduction, the piece begins in earnest at a brisk tempo with the melody combined with a lively off-beat accompaniment. Arpeggios emphasize the "sing hi down" portion of the theme and are followed by a brief dance-like interlude that leads to the close, capturing the essence of this joyful tune.

£82.50Revolution - Gary D. Ziek
The music of Revolution is bold and restless and, like most revolutions, combines passionate, hopeful and anxious undercurrents. Mounting levels of musical tension build relentlessly like a restless mob that grows as it charges through the streets, leading to the initial statement of the melody. A quiet waltz-like section slows the action, gradually taking on a more anxious and almost sinister nature which then charges forth to the frenzied conclusion.

In Quest Of Uluru - James Swearingen

In A Chinese Temple-Garden - Albert Ketèlbey
A few flavoursome introductory bars carry the listener off to a temple garden in Manchuria in North-eastern China. Mysterious incantations of the priests in the temple and the scent of incense set the scene, while the melody tells of two lovers. A Manchurian wedding procession passes by outside. In the street the coolies are becoming restless. Within the temple, all is calm. Again we hear the incantations of the priest before the lovers' theme is heard in birdsong, with short quotes from the temple theme and coolie theme to end the piece.Vocal score available separately: 1883-12-050 MS
