Imagine sitting in a canoe traveling down the peaceful river, blessed by the solitude of nature as the bow cuts quietly through the water.

In the last section, picture the majestic eagle soaring from the treetops as he makes his way out of sight. You, your students, and audience will enjoy the "Solitude" of this work.

Sparkling Samba (Concert Band - Score and Parts)
The flowing rhythm of the samba is often tempestuous and fast, but it always moves within a steady tempo. The samba, like running water, can murmur, swell, sparkle and develop into a fierce element. It is always in motion. Inspired by this principle, Gilbert Tinner composed the work Sparkling Samba. Supported by a lively rhythm section, all the sections of the band dance on the waves of the samba style! 03:45

£94.99Verso il Sole Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
Since the beginning of mankind people have realized that the warmth and the light of the sun were necessary to develop life on earth - by creating winds in the air, by generating rains through the evaporation of sea water and by allowing plants to grow. The sun creates the dynamism of the chain of life. This is the reason why ancient populations adored the sun as the god of cosmic order as opposed to the god of chaos or night, who generated fear and the necessity of defense. This piece is a tribute to the sun (Verso il Sole) as an existential symbol of life and energy. 0:04:30

£148.00Waterfall - Gauthier Dupertuis
Gauthier Dupertuis was inspired to write the main theme of Waterfall by a stroll near a waterfall that is the pride of his hometown. This piece, composed during lockdown due to Covid-19, is also a reflection on homesickness. Waterfall also expresses the composer's feelings about enjoying a welcome break and return to his roots, which enabled him to spend more time with his loved ones. For him, this waterfall is a symbol: it's not the same water that flows there, but the waterfall is still there, the same as it was when he was a child, like a witness to times gone by. Waterfall is a work with a certain sentimental value for the composer in that it was his very first real composition.The work was premiered on 9th October 2020 by the Wind Band Societat Musical 'La Constncia' of Moixent (Spain) and was conducted by Jos Alberto Pina.

£71.99Iron Mountain - Gerald Oswald
"Iron Mountain" portrays the legend of the Erzberg in Austria in an impressive musical manner. At the beginning, the atmosphere of the cave where the Waterman resides comes to life through simulated water droplets. The Waterman is pursued and captured by humans. In his desperation, he pleads for freedom and presents an offer to the people: gold mines for a year, silver mines for ten years, or iron mines forever. The clear response from the people is iron forever. The composition's finale emphasizes this choice with impactful anvil strikes, and the Erzberg rises triumphantly to the forefront of the narrative.
