£8.95Fantasy on Nordic Themes - By Frank Erickson
In western culture the richest heritage of folk music is undoubtedly of British origin. Even our American folk songs owe much to this tradition and the same can be said of Nordic (Scandinavian) folk songs as well. The origin of folk songs is quite similar throughout all of Scandinavia. This is a comprehensive designed "folk music" tune that generally covers peasant songs and instrumental pieces which have survived from earlier times.

£8.95Two Songs Without Words - By Gustav Holst / arr. Frank Erickson
Two Songs Without Words was composed in 1906 and was dedicated to Ralph Vaughan Williams and is similar in style to his two suites for band. The Country Song opens with the principal theme as an unaccompanied clarinet solo, followed by its repetition in the full woodwind section. The main theme returns in a "maestoso" setting before fading into a quite closing. Marching Song is characterized by a distinctive running sixteenth note figure. The principal melody, first played by the low woodwinds, is punctuated by these same running sixteenth note fragments. Both themes are again repeated with much variation before the tempo picks up into a short coda-style ending.

£58.50Shadow of the Condor - By Frank Erickson
Although music can be sufficient unto itself, it also may conjure images and ideas of many kinds to the audience (as well as the composer). It is not difficult to imagine the restlessness, the flight, the search for prey, the attack and the condor at rest during the many changes in mood of this composition. Few condors are alive today but this very fact justifies an admiration for its fight for survival in a hostile world.
