Finnish Folk Song Suite - Jan Van der Roost
In this moderately easy suite, Jan Van der Roost uses four authentic folk tunes from the Swedish-speaking part of Finland. These are from Nagu, Oravais, Lappfjrd and Karlebynejden, and have been joined together without pauses to form a continuous suite. The work begins with noble, almost meditative melodies. Gradually the tempo becomes faster, resulting in a brilliant and cheerful folk dance. The melody regularly goes from one band section to another ensuring that the timbre remains varied and there is no question of monotony. This is an attractive suite which is within the range of the majority of concert bands.

The Loco-motion was the hippest dance routine to hit the clubs in the 1960s. In contrast to many songwriters who write songs after a trend has taken off , singer/songwriter partners and couple Gerry Goffi n and Carole King wrote the song that kicked off the entire dancesong craze. Little Eva was the fi rst of several artists to reach the top of the US charts with this hit in 1962. Let your band rise to new heights with Hideaki Miura's funky arrangement!

Pungjazz was originally entitled "Klppfesk" as a part of my musical with the same name composed in the mid 1980's. It's a nice swing tune which Norwegian trumpet Ole Edvard Antonsen made well-known by including it on his album record "Tour de Force" (1992). Antonsen re-named it "Pungjazz" which is a more appropriate title for a trumpet player!It was also performed by Norwegian band "Dance with a Stranger"- Frode Alns -
