Panache (Concert Band - Score Only) - Fraser, Bruce

The work has a military feel in the opening fanfare, but settles down to an angular melody with frequent changes in time signature. The middle section should be played expressively and maintain a good flow. The speed of the Allegro is most likely to be determined by the agility of the trombone section in the unison running quavers. There is the possibility of adding extra drummers near the end - a drum corps was used behind the Band in the first performance making a stunning effect.

Pandemonium (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Story, Michael

Just as the title suggests, this piece is a musical depiction of wild uproar or unrestrained disorder; tumult or chaos. Complete with hammered brake drum, the piece is a real attention-getter. Out of pandemonium blooms music!Duration: 1:30

Pandora's Box (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Yagisawa, Satoshi

Pandora appears in Greek mythology - the first woman, created by the gods and sent to earth as an evil addition to the human race. 'Pan' means 'all' and 'dora' means 'gifted'. Pandora's Box must by no means be opened. The various stories surrounding this box inspired Yagisawa to write this dramatic piece, an addition to his series of pieces based on Greek mythology, such as Perseus.Duration: 9:00

Panis Angelicus - Franck, Cesar

Franck's beloved sacred song in a loving instrumental setting revealing once again Alfred Reed's masterful grasp of the possibilities of instrumental color in the modern concert band. VERY NICE!

Panis Angelicus (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Franck, Cesar - Sparke, Philip

Although Cesar Franck won many prizes during his student days his music was generally unrecognised by his contemporaries. His pieces were written in the romantic style whilst retaining a classical structure and his later compositions were referred to as 'cathedrals of sound'. Panis Angelicus is poetic and almost serene and this arrangement by Philip Sparke retains all of the beauty of the original.Duration: 3:20

Panopticon Rising (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Ford, Ralph

Reminiscent passive melodies interrupt occasionally, building to an uncompromising conclusion. Features a vivid percussion contribution.Duration: 5:30

Panoptikum (Concert Band - Score and Parts)

Armin Schaer commissioned this work in his search for a new piece for the tuba. More specifically, he wanted a work that showed off the versatility of this splendid instrument, written in a musical style that is both fresh and modern, while not banishing the orchestra to a simple supporting role. Taking all these specifications into account, Thomas Doss created a work that allows stylistic leaps and is fun, exciting, romantic, and virtuosic, but does not lose sight of the thread that connects the opening measures to the very last.Armin Schaer describes his Panoptikum as follows:Panoptikum is a show of appreciation for my beautiful home and community at Lake Constance, an eventful life, the people that have enriched this life, and a fascinating instrument: the tuba. This work musically embodies the many different moods found around theBodensee - cheerfulness and melancholy, departures and longing, calm and agitation. The roles of the soloist and the orchestra were consciously crafted in a way that does not follow the usual conventions of the genre. The work should spark emotions, address broad segments of listeners, and persuade them of the tuba's ability to be a solo instrument as well as the richness symphonic wind ensembles have to offer. I hope this work enriches the lives of all the soloists and orchestras that cross its path, as well as everyone in the audience who gets to partake! 15:30
