£94.99A New Beginning - Satoshi Yagisawa
A New Beginning begins with a beautiful and sensitive chorale shaping the musical ideas. This chorale builds up to a fast and rhythmical setting, creating a vivid and spectacular feel, with lots of percussion. The instrumentation is versatile and colourful, which makes the piece very pleasant to play and work on for each instrumental group within the band. The music slows down again in the finale, but in a maestoso style. This leads onto a dramatic and impressive ending!

£76.99A Touch of the Union Jack - Mairs
In three movements: 1. Coronation March, 2. Kingsfold and 3. Variations on a Green Theme. Coronation March is in ABA form with just a tip of the hat to William Walton's famous coronation marches written for British monarchs of the 20th century. Kingsfold is a lovely setting of the modal English traditional tune set to the text O Sing a Song of Bethlehem, featuring solos for flute and trumpet with chamber music textures. Variations on a 'Green' Theme begins with a jig in the percussion and reeds before slowly revealing the identity of the theme being varied - Greensleeves. A tour de force for advanced middle school bands or small high school bands.

A Haunted Trilogy - J. Johnson
"A Haunted Trilogy" is guaranteed to become a favorite for student and audience alike. Set as a trilogy of three short movements, your band can play one for a quick novelty piece, or all three as a divertimento or program music. "March of the Gremlins" opens the suite with an eerie march. "Tarantella For Trolls" continues the spooky musical fun with a slightly twisted little dance. "Goblin's Gavotte" closes our haunted suite with an ominous romp. It's mischievously impish, looming, conniving, and a great learning piece for chromatics in three different styles. Boo!

£74.99In a Japanese Garden - Ed Huckeby
This is a great opportunity for your ensemble to present a selection highlighting the musical styles of this richly vibrant culture. Written as a result of the composer's visit to Japan, this character piece is constructed in the style of a "promenade"...as if the listener is strolling through a traditional garden filled with sculptured trees and shrubs, fish ponds and beautiful flowers. The subtle melodic and harmonic elements convey a carefree sense of serenity, joy and peace to the listener. This will be a concert favorite for both your students and your audiences.

£87.99A New Birth Of Freedom - Rob Romeyn
The oratorical genius of Abraham Lincoln changed the course of history with The Gettysburg Address. "A New Birth of Freedom" by Rob Romeyn honors Lincoln's historic vision for the country in the post-Civil War era of reconstruction and dedicates itself to that noble cause. After a short introduction, a rudimentary solo section is featured on a theme that is reminiscent of the fife and drum musical style of Lincoln's time. This theme is developed upon as the music unfolds, gradually building and leading to a glorious, powerful, and dramatic apex. The work then moves to a restatement of that same fife and drum section on which it began, this time leading to a reflective and contemplative conclusion. A truly outstanding work that will bring a touch of class and nobility to any concert or festival performance! Outstanding!

£87.99A Life Well Lived - Rob Romeyn
Every now and then we are fortunate enough to know people who make lasting impressions, seem larger than life, and are just memorable. "A Life Well Lived" by Rob Romeyn, dedicated to the memory of his lifelong friend Jeff Norman, presents a powerful and triumphant message of personal courage, strength, and grace... a true celebration of life. The music begins with a transparent, ethereal quality that seems almost too perfect for this world. From here, a hauntingly beautiful melody is introduced. This melody develops and evolves, finally maturing into a statement of incredible emotion and power. After a breathtaking climax, the intensity subsides, back to the exquisite quality from which the music began, finally ending with a heartfelt spell that will not soon be forgotten. A very emotional, lyrical piece of uncommon quality, not to be overlooked. Our highest recommendation!

A Christmas Dream - Romeyn
Pure and beautiful, "A Christmas Dream" is a creative, lyrical setting of "Angels We Have Heard On High" for beginning band. A fresh harmonic "twist" gives this a new age feel, adding a lot of interest and intrigue for both the performer and listener. Snippets of other carols are added in creative and subtle ways. It's also very appropriate for more experienced groups that are looking for a change of pace for the holiday concert, but may have limited rehearsal time. A beautifully sensitive holiday selection!

£50.50Promise Of A New Sunrise - David Shaffer
With a glorious new sunrise soon to be born, this spectacular festival piece offers flowing melodies accompanied by dynamic rhythms and lush harmonies. A broad and powerful fanfare-like opening quickly works into a simple lonely trumpet melody. As the phrase builds, woodwinds and brass are added providing interesting countermelodies and beautiful harmonic progressions. The conclusion restates the original melody but in rhythmic half time with percussion providing the energy for a dramatic finish. "Promise of a New Sunrise" is a perfect festival selection.
