Four of these wonderful songs have been included in this setting for concert band: the spirited "Jack-a-Roe," the haunting "Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies," the very popular "Tom Dooley" (arranged here in a most unexpected manner), and finally, the beautiful "Barbara Allen."

£53.95Krakatoa - William Owens
This stunning and powerful work recalls the massive Krakatoa explosions of 1883 that were heard over 2,000 miles away. The piece begins with an immediate intensity using dissonant ascending notes representing burning lava, while low voices and percussion signify the thunderous blasts. A haunting slow section follows, exuding fear and uneasy anticipation. The music then becomes frantic and highly rhythmic as it leads to the huge eruption, depicted by well-written aleatoric passages that occur over booming bass lines. The "aftermath" is strangely quiet, but soon the angry mountain speaks once more in a powerful and thrilling ending!

£170.00Green Bushes - Percy Aldridge Grainger / arr. Frank Pappajohn
This arrangement by Frank Pappajohn, taken from the original full orchestra score, is another of the newly authorized 'Grainger Society Approved Editions' by LudwigMasters Publications. While other arrangements exist with cuts in the music, this is the only complete version that is available for band. Composed between 1905 and 1906, it was apparently a quite well-known melody as Grainger collected ten different versions of it over his career, using one version as the concluding movement of his Lincolnshire Posy. This is an important new addition to the repertoire that everyone should have.
