£109.99Dances of Innocence (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan
Jan Van der Roost composed Dances of Innocence to commemorate a girl who passed away at the tender age of 14. In contrast to the sombre, joyless tone such a memory usually invokes, it is a rather cheerful work that reflects the innocence and light heartedness of a child. It does open in a serious mood, but quickly becomes more energetic and turns into a dance. Dances of Innocence is an ode to all the beauty, sincerity and cheerfulness that a child radiates.Duration: 6:00

£84.50Buffalo Dances (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Smith, Robert W.
The lake region around Buffalo, Minnesota, is one of great geographic beauty and historic significance. Originally part of the region known as the Big Woods, the area was covered with hardwoods that were so thick in their overlapping branches, it was difficult to see the road ahead or sky above. The white elm trees grew to six feet in diameter and up to majestic heights of over one hundred feet.The Dakota People lived and prospered in this area between the lakes for 300 years. Buffalo was a favourite hunting and fishing ground for the Dakotas until the arrival of the first European fur traders and settlers. The richness of the natural resources served as a catalyst for modern development, which led to the very progressive region that continues to grow to this day.Buffalo Dances honours the natural beauty, Native-American heritage and the modern prosperity of Buffalo. Beginning with a majestic fanfare, the piece continues with flowing, Native-American inspired melodies over driving rhythmic figures. The centre of the piece is comprised of a simple original hymn song that reflects on the natural beauty of the region. Accompanied by the sounds of Native-American dance, the intensity returns. If one listens carefully the sound of snorting buffalo can be heard amid the festive atmosphere before the return of the concluding fanfare.

£69.99Soft-shoe Shuffle (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip
Dating from the first decades of the 20th century and originating in vaudeville and the music hall, the soft-shoe shuffle was danced by tap dancers, wearing soft-shoes instead of their normal tap shoes. In this usually comic dance, the shoes were rubbed on the surface of the stage producing a characteristic 'swish'. Soft-shoe Shuffle can be made into a percussion feature by bringing the sandpaper blocks to the front of the stage - with added choreography, if required! A wonderful piece of musical humour for your concerts.Duration: 2:45
