£77.50Handel in the Strand - Percy Aldridge Grainger / transcr. Thomas P. Rohrer
This delightful Grainger classic was written to depict a jolly old George Friedrich Handel careening down the Strand (the theatre district of London) accompanied by the English popular music of the day. Given the original instrumentation and label as a chamber piece in Grainger's original publication, this transcription is taken directly from Grainger's "four-some" edition of 1912, transposed down a step from G to F major. It is scored to best depict the light (and sometimes percussive) quality of the piano along with the lyrical flow of the strings and the general character of chamber music. Ultimately, the "room music" quality of the original shines through in this skillful transcription while depicting the spirit of the piece in a way that Grainger might have chosen. (3:35)

£58.50March of the Dragon Masters - Robert Jager
The "inspiration" for March of the Dragon Masters came from the composer's son, who has a great interest in both medieval legends and in science fiction. Although there is no specific story behind the various "events" of the music, the spirit of dragons, knights and sorcerers was intended to be ever present in this brief drama.
