Handel in Rock - Luc Gistel

Handel's Tochter Zion is one of the most beautiful hymns ever composed. Luc Gistel has arranged this musical gem in a variety of styles using many of the outstanding rhythmic elements of modern music. The piece opens with the original theme in all its natural pure sound, transforming into music in a pop style. The middle section is romantic with meandering peaceful and sensitive lines. This is followed by a reappearance of the pop melody. The piece comes to a close with the return of the initial theme.

Handel In The Strand - P. Grainger

This delightful Grainger classic was written to depict a jolly old George Friedrich Handel careening down the Strand (the theatre district of London) accompanied by the English popular music of the day. Given the original instrumentation and label as a chamber piece in Grainger's original publication, this transcription is taken directly from Grainger's "four-some" edition of 1912, transposed down a step from G to F major. It is scored to best depict the light (and sometimes percussive) quality of the piano along with the lyrical flow of the strings and the general character of chamber music. Ultimately, the "room music" quality of the original shines through in this skillful transcription while depicting the spirit of the piece in a way that Grainger might have chosen. (3:35)

Handel In The Strand - Percy Aldridge Grainger

John Philip Sousa's tasteful arrangement of this delightful Percy Grainger classic has been updated for modern concert band by Keith Brion and Loras Schissel. Includes copious rehearsal and performance notes and even some correspondence between Sousa and Grainger that gives insight into their thoughts about arrangements of Grainger's music. Extremely nice!

Hands Across The Sea

Andrew Balent arranging John Philip Sousa is a winning combination in itself, and this popular march has been scaled down sensitively and carefully for the younger band. Inspired by the friendship between the United States and their allies overseas, Sousa composed this march After hearing the phrase, "A sudden thought strikes me, let us swear eternal friendship." The touching patriotism and bold happiness of this work will make your group shine.
