Sonata for Alto Saxophone, Op. 29 (Concert Band - Score and Parts)

(Transcription for solo alto saxophone and wind band)Written in 1970, Robert Muczynski's two-movement Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano has become a standard in the saxophone repertoire. Anthony LaBounty has skillfully adapted this work for wind band accompaniment, carefully preserving the intent and style of the original with its unique blend of modern tonalities and syncopated rhythmic drive.

Sonata for Clarinet Op.120 No.2 in Eb (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Brahms, Johannes - Farr, Ray

'Scaff' is an adaptation of the famous 4th movement of the Symphonie Fantastique by Berlioz in swing style. The story of the 'March to the scaffold' is a tragic one where the subject, in a depressive state over a love interest, overdoses on opium. He dreams that he has killed his beloved and after his procession to the scaffold is now witnessing his own death. This arrangement doesn't really reflect those tragic circumstances but instead redresses this great tune into a toe-tapping 'big band' number.
