£49.00Soul Rock - Dale Lauder
This is a John Kenyon classic. It is a 1950's rock style song. There are alternate clarinet parts so students who can play above the break, have that option. If your clarinets are not ready for that register, hand out the low parts. It works! The 1st trumpet's highest note is C.

£45.00Cool It! - Randy Navarre
All Grade 's are playable with only 5 instruments: 1 flute, 2 clarinets, 1 alto saxophone, and 1 trumpet. Those instruments are not always doubled elsewhere. The song is written in such a way, it will sound good with a limited instrumentation and richer and fuller as your band gets bigger. All Grade 's by Northeastern Music are playable after only 5 - 7 lessons. At this performance level, no clarinet crosses the break. Cool It! is a twelve bar blues designed to drill in counting rhythms while the students are having a blast. The 1st trumpet's highest note is Bb. Directors often allow students to start learning to improve on this easy piece. Yes, at this very beginning stage! This remains one of our best sellers in this series.

£49.00The Dark Crusader - Donald Josuweit
This is the perfect song for teaching 6/8 time. It is all very easy with eighth notes in groups of 3 only. No quarter/eighth rhythms, so it is easy to get the students to feel the triple meter. It is also a great song for getting the first clarinet players to play over the break. For the 1st half of the song, they play low notes. From low A, they press the register key and get the E in the staff, thus making it easy and fun to play the higher notes. It is an exciting work and one of NMP's best sellers. The first trumpet's highest note is C.

£64.00Orion's Sword
An evocative and mysterious opening, heroic themes and cinematic scoring characterize this varied and musically rich piece by the well-known television and film composer, Alan Lee Silva. The band writing is fresh and the tune from the slow middle section, which is divided among solo flute, oboe and clarinet, is particularly appealing. This piece will be a great choice for contest and concert use.

A Festive Overture - Kenneth Hesketh
A Festive Overture is bravura in nature, with important solos for upper winds and trumpets. The outer sections are busy and colourful and frame a more expansive, but no less urgent, middle section which develops a large arching oboe and clarinet theme. The work ends as it began, with excitement and exuberance.

The Pre-Goodman Rag - Malcolm Arnold

The third movement, known affectionately as 'The Pre-Goodman Rag', is an outrageous ragtime parody with a hauntingly wistful middle section. The work has now been made more widely available in this transcription for wind band.

The Winds Of Power - Nigel Hess
Unlike Nigel Hess's other works for wind band, The Winds of Power is not a programmatic work. After a dark and menacing opening a solo trumpet introduces a theme which will eventually become the centre of a piece and is soon heard tutti in a lyrical form. This is interrupted by a return to the opening mood, with only a brief respite in the form of a chorale for clarinet choir and harp. The theme tries to return once more in a rousing, somewhat cinematic version, but again the sense of foreboding overtakes it. An unsettling march-like section follows before the theme returns in its most lyrical and gentle guise, introduced by solos in the woodwind section. Eventually, a maestoso statement which erupts into a presto coda, ends the journey in a triumphant, more optimistic blaze of sound.

Released as a charity single in aid of The Queen's Commonwealth Trust, this sublime work was composed by Debbie Wiseman OBE and performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra in tribute to Queen Elizabeth II after her death in September 2022.

The piece is now available for wind bands through this arrangement by Andrew Wainwright, with permission kindly granted by Debbie Wiseman.

£14.96Serenade for Winds (Wind Ensemble) Andrew Wainwright
This delightful work was composed in April 2023 by Andrew Wainwright as a tribute to Catherine Ramsdale, who was a member of the composer's church in Lewisville, Texas, and who passed away at the age of 88. The music is supposed to be evocative of Catherine's loving and caring spirit. Starting out in rather melancholy mood to reflect the sadness that Catherine is no longer with us in an earthly sense, the music moves into a more sprightly section which reflects her cheerful and positive personality. PDF download includes score and full set of parts. Instrumentation Flute Oboe Clarinet in Bb Horn in F Bassoon
