    Birthday Madrigals (Concert Band with opt. Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

    Birthday Madrigals was written in 1995 to celebrate the seventy-fifth birthday of the great jazz pianist, George Shearing. This arrangement is written for combined band and choir, but may be performed by band alone. In honour of George Shearing's noted style, a vibes part has been added to this arrangement, as well as an optional piano part. The original setting was a suite of five movements. The arranger has chosen three of the movements, numbers 1, 3 and 5, because of their similarity in style. This is a special opportunity for Concert Bands, or combined Concert Bands and Choirs, to perform in a true jazz medium, featuring a set drummer and string bass along with the full band.

    Christmas Night (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

    Christmas Night is John Rutter's setting of a traditional French Carol, with words by John Rutter. It became the theme of one of his Christmas albums, focusing on the central event of the Christmas story, the birth at Bethlehem, and on the characters in that story: the angels, the shepherds, the wise men, and the mother with her child. This arrangement is written for combined Concert Band and Chorus, but may be performed by Band alone. The arrangement is technically very easy, and is a showpiece of the colours and textures of the families of band instruments.

    Down by the Riverside (Concert Band with opt. Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

    Down by the riverside is a spiritual that was sung by slaves in the South as a work song. It dates back to before the American Civil War. John Rutter's lively arrangement of this barnstorming American folk-song builds up from a quiet opening to a triumphant conclusion. This arrangement is a faithful adaptation of the original orchestration for chorus and orchestra, but it is arranged so that it may be performed by band alone. The style is an authentic toe-tapping early jazz creation that relates to the 'jitterbug' era, and the band arrangement is complete with an optional jazz clarinet solo as well as a rousing chorus by the sax section. The piano part is cued if needed. This is a perfect opportunity to get the entire band 'swinging', and could even entice a 'One mo' time!' finale.

    I Will Sing with the Spirit (Concert Band with Optional Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

    This well-known piece by John Rutter is set in a subtle Latin mode, to which the arranger has enhanced by adding castanets, maracas, claves, and congas. The arrangement is written for combined band and chorus, but may be performed by band alone, featuring a variety of instruments carrying the melody and its harmonies. It is written one-half step (one semi-tone) lower than the original presentation to better accommodate band instruments.

    Rock Music (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Shapiro, Alex

    For Concert Wind Band and Pre-Recorded Soundscapes.Alex Shapiro first brought electroacoustic music - paired with using an everyday object as an instrument - to middle school bands with her 2010 piece, PAPER CUT. Now comes ROCK MUSIC, possibly the very first geo-electroacoustic minimalist band piece, largely devoid of melody, and of rhythm. Conceptual and atmospheric, the music features compelling textures from instruments, voices, and rocks that weave a wind band into a piece of sonic fabric stretched across linear time. As the notes slowly crawl, melt, and scrape over a sonic landscape in random, irregular ways, we're connected to the ancient glaciers which carved the world we know, and which we strive to protect. Like PAPER CUT, ROCK MUSIC can be equally appreciated by mature bands and their audiences, as well. To perform ROCK MUSIC, you'll need an audio system capable of playing the prerecorded audio tracks from a laptop computer via a small digital audio interface connected to an audio mixer. Download information is provided in the printed piece.Duration: 4:15

    Hymns from the Rig Veda (Windependence Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Holst, Gustav - Mitchell, Jon

    A century ago, James Causley Windram, then band director of the 5th Northumberland Fusiliers (and later the Coldstream Guards) asked Gustav Holst if he would transcribe some of the composer's Hymns from the Rig Veda for military band. Always a band advocate, Holst readily agreed. In this thoroughly characteristic suite, two of Windram's settings (Hymn of the Travellers and Battle Hymn) have been edited for modern instrumentation, while a third (Hymn to Manas) has been arranged by Jon Ceander Mitchell from Holst's original choral setting.

    Blessings (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Ken, Thomas - Smith, Robert W.

    Based on the liturgical hymn "The Doxology" written in 1674 by Thomas Ken, this lyrical and sensitive arrangement for the beginning band provides multiple teaching opportunities in a rich musical setting. The first melodic statement is written as a musical exchange between soloists or sections creating a connection and awareness between sections of the band. The second melodic statement is a lush full ensemble setting in contrast. The use of mixed meter in an accessible and musically logical manner reinforces teaching and concepts introduced in the first year of most beginning band methods. A beautiful and educational choice for your concert program! Duration: 2.00
