£113.30Visions Of Jericho - Daniele Carnevali
The piece, commissioned by the "Banda Orchestra G. Bovo" from Carmignano di Brenta (Padua), was inspired by two paintings by the artist Galeazzo Vigan, which were in turn commissioned to celebrate the anniversary of the founding of the band. The two paintings, entitled "Gerico 1 and 2", their mirror-like arrangement, the alternation between fullness and fineness and the use of numerical symbols (especially the repetition of the number 7) are used as musical material in the formation and subsequent development of the themes. Similarly, the formal mirror-like arrangement of the allegro vivo and the alternation of the monodic and chordal styles (fineness - fullness) seek to create a bond between the pictorial and musical languages.

£39.95Music for Junior Wind Band Vol. 3
Another fabulous arrangement from Adrian Taylor of popular tunes for Junior Wind Ensemble. It is not necessary to have all parts being played for these arrangements. Most will work fine with just the two Trumpet/Clarinet parts and a bass line from trombones, tubas or bassoons. With the exception of the bassoon part, all instruments have a part 1 (more advanced and with key signatures) and a part 2 (easier music, lower notes, rarely crossing the break for woodwind players, and without key signatures for treble clef instruments). A piano part is included to help fill out the harmonies for smaller groups.
