£60.50The Recession Depression Holiday Blues - Robert W. Smith
In these challenging economic times, what better way to show creativity and compliance than this hilarious setting of the traditional Jingle Bells? The opening announcement reminds the audience that our budgets have been cut and the band has been forced to reduce the amount of new instrument purchases. As a result, the band went to the toy shop and bought several new instruments including the kazoo, toy drum, toy xylophone, and trash can lid cymbals among others. Following the "tuning" of the toys, the swing setting kicks off and features the toys in melody, improvisation and response quotes throughout. "Now that's what I call using our resources!"

£60.50Follow the Star - Ed Huckeby
A great selection to get your "packed house" for the holiday concert! This original Christmas tune may be performed by the band alone, or with a unison chorus, two-part chorus or soloist. The melody and lyrics are simple and very singable, requiring little rehearsal by a young ensemble, music class or "future star," and is accessible to children's choruses. This unique selection will add that "extra touch" to your concert, and has the potential to generate an "automatic" audience of parents, grandparents and friends. Great holiday fare!

£71.50The Seventh Day - David Shaffer
Based on the hymn tune "My Shepherd Shall Supply My Need", this fantasia is a musical reflection of the biblical account of The Creation. A powerful programmatic piece that opens with the woodwind choir and as the piece develops the mood shifts to excitement and a feeling of exhilaration. The tension and musical drama is brought to a conclusion only in the last measure as the climax is suspended for a long electric moment with the decay of a single chime tone. Without a doubt this is David Shaffer's most aggressive work to date. Highly Recommended.
