Parkour (L'art du Deplacement) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hazo, Samuel R.

Combining brash and aggressive rhythmic figures along with more gentle moments and inventive textures, this impressive work by Samuel Hazo is truly a standout for advanced bands. The piece is built around a four-note motif, which is developed and expanded throughout. A middle section features more of a jazzy flavor with saxes in the spotlight accompanied by finger snaps. The rhythmic intensity returns, building towards a glorious full ensemble affirmation and bringing this exciting work to a powerful conclusion.Duration: 5:45

Partay! (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Webb, Amy

Partay! is a soca/calypso piece with a festive beat and challenging rhythms that will have your audiences clapping their hands and tapping their toes! While somewhat difficult looking on paper, once the students get the hang of the feel and groove of the music, they'll have it put together in no time! Duration: 2.30

Particles (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sweeney, Michael

This unusual work portrays the transformation of matter from solid to liquid and ultimately to gas. You'll hear a single musical theme transformed throughout, starting with a very rigid and dense opening statement. From there the theme is treated in a lyrical style (liquid), and finally the pace becomes frantic and energetic as the melodic particles transform into gas. Using unique scoring techniques (including a few aleatoric sections and dramatic percussion effects) this descriptive work will stir the imagination of players and audience alike.Duration: 5:30

Partita (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Gregson, Edward

Partita' was originally composed for brass band in 1973. The work is in three movements, and uses material based on the 13th century plainsong 'Dies Irae". the opening Intrada is sombre. the second movement is a 'chorale and variations. the chorale melody follows the main outline of the plainsong. the five variations are varied in mood and intensity. the final March is much happier in mood and has a lyrical tune in the middle first heard on horns. However, references to the 'Dies Irae' are still apparent and the final bars of the work contain a quote from the opening movement.

Partita (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul

Xylophones ahoy! John Rutter's Partita of 1976, is not a piece you might necessarily have expected from the renowned composer of some of the classics of contemporary sacred choral music. Yet this is a giant of a piece that allows everyone in the ensemble to truly shine, and one which surely will become a significant addition to the repertoire of the Concert Band. With hints of Gershwin, and filled with joy, majesty, wonder, and power, it will excite your ensemble and capture your audience. The original orchestra composition was written for, and dedicated to, the London Junior Orchestra.

Composed as a suite, this descriptive work uses four short movements to create varied and distinctive moods. First is a bold Fanfare with rich harmonies, followed by the March in a traditional style. The third movement is a Blues in a minor key, followed by the final Rondo in triple meter. An appealing and creative addition to the young band repertoire.Duration: 7:30
