£224.90The Cosmographic Mystery - Ingebjørg Vilhelmsen
"The Cosmographic Mystery" outlines the great mysteries and secrets of the universe. The musical foundation is a tribute to composer Gustav Holst, and his suite "The Planets". Each movement from the suite is quoted in the course of the piece. The title is taken from a book by the German astronomer Johannes Kepler, which was published in the 17th century. The book explains Kepler's cosmological theory that the distance relationship between the planets could be understood in light of the five Platonic solids. The theory proposes that the solids dictate the structure of the universe through geometry. "The Cosmographic Mystery" is supported by the Norwegian Composers' Fund, and was commissioned by Oslofjord brass.

Ash Grove Variations - Stephen Bulla
Based on a Welsh folk song, this simple melody is tastefully scored to fit the familiar style of Holst and Vaughn Williams. After an introduction that builds on fragmentary melodic elements in 4/4 meter, the main theme of the variations appears in 3/4. Scored to feature different instrumental textures throughout, in addition to a full ensemble treatment. Very appropriate for contest.

£83.00Second Suite in F - Gustav Holst
Along with his First Suite in E-flat, Holst's Second Suite is among the most treasured landmark works for band. In this adaptation, Robert Longfield has adjusted the extreme ranges, used the instrumentation of the contemporary young concert band, and added liberal cues (particularly for oboe, bassoon, and horn). However, the integrity of the original (form, keys, harmony, etc.) is completely intact. An absolute must for young bands. Includes a full performance CD.
