Christmas is a magical time and, after all, no matter how old we are, we are all still children at heart." These words were written by Chris de Burgh about his 2009 hit, The Bells of Christmas, inspired by Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Simon Fahnholz has now made an excellent version of this Christmas hit for concert band.Duration: 2:45

The Bells of Christmas (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Longfield, Robert

An inspiring composition which features narration based on the story of how Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote the famous carol," I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day". The hand bell choir part (3 octaves) is totally optional, but gives the director a method of involving local hand bell choirs in the holiday concert. The narration is essential to the performance and also provides an opportunity to involve a local dignitary into the performance. Very distinctive and unique.

This turns into a quickly moving energetic section with irregular rhythm. This is a short but dramatic piece that will make a brilliant concert opener.Duration: 2:45

The Berlin Rag (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Blinko, Timothy

The Berlin Rag evokes the rich harmonic sound-world of 1920s Berlin and contemporary jazz, fused with the technique of American Ragtime. The scoring is highly colouristic in nature, and has avoided any weighty doublings. There are also many solo opportunities for all the principal players, either chamber-like combinations, duets or solo lines. The magical crunchy effect of the tutti band is reserved until the end where it is finally released in a blaze of brass writing, spiked with timpani and percussion.
