£70.50Saskatchewan Overture - Howard Cable
In the mid 19th Century Saskatchewan was a vast, flat, treeless and lawless area. In the 21st century it is a vibrant energetic blend of wheat, oil, potash and gas. Commissioned by The Saskatoon Concert Band, it was my goal to capture, in music, the forward thrust and the rhythmic pulse of the province today.

£50.50St. Anthony Chorale - Franz Joseph Haydn / arr. David Marlatt
This famous melody has been attributed to Haydn but there is doubt whether he was the composer. Johannes Brahms wrote a famous set of variations based on this melody calling it Variations on a Theme by Joseph Haydn. The music is simple and stately with the melody moving between several sections of the band. (2:45)

£73.50L'Esprit du Tour: A Fanfare for Lance - Randol Alan Bass
This remarkable piece captures the excitement, physical challenge, intensity and, ultimately, the thrill and sense of accomplishment a rider might experience during such a grueling and demanding physical trial as Le Tour de France. Both tonal and non-tonal compositional materials, some indeterminate and serial techniques, special percussion (a six-tom-tom cluster, heavy chains and four metal plates) along with traditional and non-traditional development procedures are used --impressing upon listeners, through sound, a sense and feel of competitive bicycling, from the point of view of the athletes themselves. In hopes of imbuing the music with the flavor of the various cultures coming together for this contest, the composition contains extant source material as well -- including La Marsellaise, The Star-Spangled Banner and a brief reference to The Eyes of Texas.

£66.95A Prairie Portrait - Robert Sheldon
was inspired by the poetry of Carl Sandburg. The lyrical quality of the music is a testament to the loving words he wrote as a tribute to his birthplace. The pioneer spirit shines through the opening of the work, full of youthful optimism and energy. The lyrical section that follows represents the poet's "hankering" for another day and beautiful night on the prairie, giving us the warm feelings of love and security we all feel about the place we call home. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

£48.95High Five! - Steve Hodges
Looking for some music to get the audience more involved in your concert? Here it is! A medium-rock groove sets the stage for an eighth-note motive that signals the band and audience to give "high fives" throughout the piece. Soloists on the flute, saxophone, trumpet, trombone and clarinet are featured on two-measure phrases that lead to an exciting "drum-off" between the snare and tom players. Band members and directors are encouraged to use their creativity in the solo section as well as in giving "high fives" to each other and to the audience. A really fun piece! (3:05)

£58.50Shadow of the Condor - Frank Erickson
Although music can be sufficient unto itself, it also may conjure images and ideas of many kinds to the audience (as well as the composer). It is not difficult to imagine the restlessness, the flight, the search for prey, the attack and the condor at rest during the many changes in mood of this composition. Few condors are alive today but this very fact justifies an admiration for its fight for survival in a hostile world.
