£53.95Overture 1812 - By Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky / arr. Michael Story
Most musicians dislike the term "watered-down," so we asked Michael Story to present this classic overture with musical integrity and honesty but to simplify the complicated orchestral writing to be playable by a very young band or ensemble. We think you will agree: This arrangement succeeds admirably! (1:55)

£6.251812 Overture - By Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky / arr. Mark Williams
This powerful arrangement makes one of Tchaikovsky's most popular and dramatic orchestral works accessible for grade 3 concert bands. The expressive chorale that opens the work has been reworked for brass and bass clarinet, and its dramatic restatement near the end of the piece has been transposed down a perfect fourth so your trumpets will ring through right to the end. Mark Williams also offers some creative alternatives to achieve the cannon sounds. Close your next concert with this all-time classic!

£59.99Slavonic Rock March
According to his teachers, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893), was not particularly gifted. His special talents were acknowledged only in 1865 when he had been working for the Ministry of Finances for some years. In 1866 he was appointed teacher at the Conservatory and applied himself to composing. His oeuvre is fairly extensive and many of his compositions receive a high ranking on the international list of classical music, including his six symphonies, solo concertos (violin concerto and piano concertos), ballets (The Nut Cracker, Swan Lake), and his overtures (1812 and Romeo and Juliette). In 1893 Tchaikovsky died of Cholera after drinking a glass of infectedwater. His Slavonic March is a popular concert piece for symphonic orchestra that is still frequently performed in concert halls. David Well arranged the theme and created a contemporary march in rock style. Tchaikovsky once said to an unsatisfied teacher: 'I will be a great composer within 10 years time.'

Of Courage And Patriotism - James Curnow
This is descriptive composition at its finest! The music tells the story of the battle at Fort Meigs, Ohio during the War of 1812. The listener is taken from the calm sunrise, through the intensity and tulmultuous events of that fateful day. The quiet of the early dawn hours, the distant trumpet calls and sounds of thundering canons bring history to life through riveting music! Highly recommended!

£120.40Intermissions - Daniele Carnevali
This piece was commissioned by the organising committee of the "La Prime Luz 1812" national band contest, held in Bertiolo (Udine), as the compulsory piece for category A. It consists of three movements and, rated as a first international category or national excellence grade piece, it requires the appropriate variety of timbres and instrumentalists with the necessary skills. The themes, enhanced by the use of unusual tones and compound beats, are often broken, interrupted: hence the title of the piece, intermissions, meaning interruptions. The unifying element is the musical language that, through the use of artificial modes and fourths, seeks to create a balance between tensions of differing intensity and nature.
