Global Variations - Nigel Hess
Around the world in just over eight minutes! Although commissioned for a Youth Band, no concessions are made here for lack of technical ability, particularly in the percussion department. The chimes of Big Ben herald the start of a whistle-stop global journey, calling in turn at France, Spain, South Africa, Egypt, Russia, India, China, Australia, South America, and the USA, with a final detour through Ireland and Scotland before hearing Big Ben once more as we arrive home!

The Pageant of London - Frank Bridge
Frank Bridge was one of the finest English composers of the first half of the 20th century. The Pageant of London is his only work for wind band, comprising of two marches, one scored from Bridge's best known organ piece and including the chimes of Big Ben, plus three short renaissance pastiche items, one arranged from Playford (later used by Peter Warlock in Capriol Suite). The music is tuneful, approachable and, in the words of wind band 'legend' Timothy Reynish makes a fine alternative to Holst's two suites, which were composed around the same time. Reynish has introduced this work to concert bands right across the world. It has been performed in USA and the Far East, recorded by the celebrated Kosei Wind Orchestra of Japan and also by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in the Chandos edition of Bridge Orchestral Music.

£82.00King Karl King - Henry Fillmore
Originally written for a film (The Big Brass Band) that was never made, this terrific but little-known march turned out to be the last march that Fillmore would write. Unusually rich in harmony, it was not published in Fillmore's lifetime. He had asked that it be named after his friend and fellow march composer, Karl L. King, if the movie was not produced.

£131.00Traveler
David Maslanka's Traveler, for Symphonic Wind ensemble, was commissioned in 2003 by the University of Texas at Arlington Band Alumni Association, the Delta Sigma chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi and the Gamma Nu Chapter of Tau Beta Sigma, in honor of the career contributions of Ray C. Lichtenwalter, retiring Director of bands at UT Arlington. Maslanka writes, "Ray has been a close friend and champion of my music for many years, and it was a great pleasure for me to write this piece for his final concert. The idea for Traveler came from the feeling of a big life movement as I contemplated my friend's retirement." Carl Fischer Music is excited to offer this beautifully contemplative piece in a study score format.

High and Mighty
This rip-snortin' circus march will thrill audiences and performers alike! Composed by classic circus band leader Fred Jewell, this march was dedicated to P. G. Lowery, an African-American cornet virtuoso who was a pioneering headliner in circus bands and is the "Jackie Robinson of the American band movement." Walloping low brass, dizzying woodwinds, and screaming trumpets bring the big top to like in this exciting and challenging march. Wow!

Let There Be Peace On Earth
A beautiful arrangement of one of the most memorable melodies of all time that makes a wonderful concert piece for any middle school band. Starts out quietly featuring the woodwind section (and optional choir or audience sing-a-long) and then the brass takes over and builds to a big full sound. Great piece to combine choir and band as the finale of your concert. A great message in a great song! Inspiring and impressive!
