The Sound of my Life Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)

With this composition, Otto M. Schwarz shows himself totally capable of composing a work with a somber, almost melancholic character. Melody and counterpoint, accompanied by a peaceful harmony, play a kind of question and answer game in this short composition. The piece is written in a rather ABA form, with the perusiion complementing the whole very effectively. 0:03:00

The Sound of Unity (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Houben, Kevin

Creating a community through music making: that, in short, is the essence of The Sound of Unity. Kevin Houben was commissioned to write this work by the Belgian municipality of Riemst. The music highlights the charm of the town, its sights, its splendid scenery, and much more... But above all the strong community spirit of the inhabitants of Riemst is beautifully expressed. For half of this work, the composer has provided an optional two-part choral passage for mixed choir. Breathtaking!Duration: 6:30

The Sounds of Christmas Joy

Opening with a fanfare based on "Joy To The World" featuring prominent bells and chimes, Swearingen then seques into an expressive, "classical" setting of Beethoven's famous "Ode to Joy". After a tasty modulation into a new setting of "Ode to Joy" with modern harmonies and tone colors, the final section presents a traditional rendition of "Joy to the World". Concludes with a "classically" based presto! Exceptional!

The Source (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Appermont, Bert

At the heart of this piece are several elements that inspired the composer. First of all: nature, infinite and inexhaustible, giving life and power, something bigger than humans can grasp. The composer used the Gregorian hymn 'Veni Creator Spiritus' as a leitmotiv to reflect this idea. A second element was the passing of David Maslanka, a dear friend of the composer, honoured in the work by a few musical 'echoes'. At the end of the work, there is a passage for optional choir in different possible settings. The Source was commissioned by the Banda Giovanlie Regionale ANBIMA FVG, Italy, and is an impressive, stirring and moving piece of music. Duration: 8.00

The Sousa Scramble (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sousa, John Philip - Murtha, Paul

Ever have trouble identifying which Sousa march you're hearing? Paul Murtha complicates it even more by "rearranging" several of Sousa's march fragments into a clever novelty that will lighten up any program.

The Southerner

One of the classic street marches that has been scored with an eye to the balance, tone color and dynamic contrast desirable in concert performance.

The Spell (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Waespi, Oliver

The Spell is a musical interpretation of an old legend from the Alpstein, a mystical mountain area in the east of Switzerland. According to the tale, a shepherd boy, Hennes, cared for his animals on the alpine pastures, but many of the animals fell ill with a terrible plague and died. The mountain spirit appeared to Hennes out of the mists of Santis and so the story unfolds... The music of The Spell follows the narrative of this legend, in which musical motifs are assigned to the essential elements of the story, a technique seen in late romantic repertoire by composers such as Wagner or Richard Strauss.Duration: 13.00
