£45.00Irish Reel - Wind Band - Benjamin Britten
Britten wrote Irish Reel in 1936 as the title music for a documentary film entitled 'Around the Village Green'. It is a bravura piece, exhibiting all the energy and strong orchestral colours typical of the composer at that time,and makes good use of a traditional reel tune with the evocative title'The Bottom of the Punch Bowl'.Guy Woolfenden's transcription for symphonic wind band skilfully captures all the fun and sparkle of this ebullient score.

£32.95JOHN GAY SUITE (Novello Symphonic Band) Extra Score - Orr, Buxton
Extra score only. The idea for this suite came from left-over thoughts from a projected version of The Beggar's Opera, which failed to come to fruition. When John Gay assembles the music for The Beggar's Opera in 1727, he used popular tunes of the day and Dr. Pepusch provided orchestral accompaniments. More recently, Frederic Austin and Benjamin Britten have been amongst many composers who have adapted these melodies to their own purposes. Duration: 15 mins. Recorded on QPRM127D Great British Music for Wind Band Vol.4 (Guildhall Symphonic Wind Ensemble, Peter Gane)
