Strong percussion characteristic of this composer, is quite evident and is used creatively to the finale. A useful selection for contest or festival. (7 minutes )

£104.50Meramec Rhapsody - Claude T. Smith
This work is a commission by the Missouri Bandmasters Association to honor the 50th Anniversary of the MMEA. From the opening melody stated by unison flutes, 1st clarinet and 1st trumpet, the work quickly starts through a development of that melody that only this composer does so well. The writing is very "rubato" chorale style often interrupted with short allegro sections but always returning to the opening statement. There is a short flute solo passage as well as a very fluent alto sax solo. A dramatic piece that bands will enjoy playing for years to come.

£82.50Distant Mirrors - William Ballenger
This stylish, colorful work opens quietly with solo clarinet and crystal clear mallet highlights reminiscent of a lyrical English folksong. The decidedly English flavor is maintained as sections of the band gradually join in, changing the character of the piece to a rollicking dance. Easily playable, with active percussion and evocative melodic lines, this is indeed a musical reflection on our cultural heritage.

£104.50Fantasia on a Theme from The Southern Harmony - Barry E. Kopetz
Warm, emotional, and harmonically rich, the lovely tune Ballerma comes from the shaped note book of hymns entitled The Southern Harmony and is similar to the well-known hymn Amazing Grace. Its the perfect subject for the collection of colorful and creative fantasies that make up this work. After an initial presentation, the melody is used in a series of contrasting treatments, the first being flippant and humorous. The next is simple and childlike, featuring a delicate percussion ensemble, clarinet ensemble or combination of both. The final fantasy incessantly drives the music forward, releasing pent-up energy along the way to the thrilling conclusion.
