Carnival (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Doss, Thomas

This work was commissioned by Marktmusik Timelkam to celebrate its 170th anniversary. It describes the cultural life and hustle and bustle of the band's home base, the Austrian town of Timelkam. Carnival pictures a festive procession starting at the marketplace and lasting well into the night. The work features many carnivalesque elements and is a joy for players to perform. There is a lot of merry activity going on in the music; people cheerily chatting in the inn; singing and dancing together and having fun. There is also room for a melancholy mood, accompanied by reminiscences about eternal goodbyes and searching for love. With the added musical representation of children's playing and pranks, a beautiful sunrise as well as a depiction of the churches and societies in town, this composition is not just an account of a carnival parade but a small portrayal of life.Duration: 11.30

Carnival (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Meechan, Peter

Carnival! is a samba set in the famous streets of Rio. Performers should be encouraged to treat it in a big band style and really go for it. The percussion should use the notated samba pattern as a basis for what you can achieve - playing more than one instrument, maybe cymbals or a whistle - even a drum kit! There is a section for solos in the percussion if desired.

Carnival Of The Animals (Concert Suite From) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Brand, Geoffrey

Saint-Saens wrote his Grand Zoological Fantasy - "The Carnival of the Animals" - in 1186. It was first performed at a Shrove Tuesday concert in that year with the composer as one of the performers. Subsequently, Saint-Saens allowed it to be performed only on a few occasions and under special conditions. Later he forbade it to be performed at all, but this restriction was lifted under a special provision in his will.
