Irish Tune from County Derry (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Grainger, Percy Aldridge - Romeyn, Rob

Percy Grainger's "Irish Tune from County Derry" is unquestionably one of the most beloved standards of the concert band repertoire. Rob Romeyn's brilliant arrangement for the Command series of this iconic work has been skillfully and carefully adapted to better fit the instrumentation of a smaller ensemble, thus allowing the piece to be performed effectively by many more bands who would otherwise not have the opportunity. All of Grainger's iconic melodic and harmonic lines and harmonic structure are present and left intact. We predict this wonderful arrangement will become a classic and will be a valuable addition to the repertoire for many years to come. Great music for younger performers! Duration: 4.15

IronHeart (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Standridge, Randall D.

This work for concert band is inspired by the inner strength that all artists must call on to devote themselves to their craft. The work uses the sounds of a beating heart combined with metallic accents in the mallet percussion, brake drum, and China crash to create a uniquely industrial sound. The melody races through life's obstacles (represented in an altered scale) before climaxing in a beautiful, triumphant fanfare.Duration: 2:45
