£71.50Halloween Waltz In Five - Robert E. Foster
Ghouls, ghosts and goblins try their best to dance their Halloween night away, but try as they may, it just doesnt turn out right. This quirky tune lets your band frighten and delight your audience with screams, blaring noises and an odd sense of waltz time (3/4 and 2/4 mixed meter). It gives you a great chance to teach mixed meter, and gives your students something really fun to play!

£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.

£121.00Little Masquerade Suite - Johan Halvorsen
In 1922 Halvorsen was commissioned to write incidental music for the bicentennial performance of a comedy written by Norwegian playwright Ludvig Holberg. Masquerade calls for a diverse pallet of music depicting ballet and dance scenes filled with silly play and gaiety. As a result, the music is graceful, as found in Cotillion, playful as in the Bacchanale, and burlesque for the Rooster and Grotesque dances. The original Masquerade Suite for orchestra consisted of eight dances; this arrangement for concert band comprises the first, third, fifth and sixth movements of Halvosens original suite. A delightful programing selection displaying humor, wit and elegance in the four brief movements.

£121.00Tock - Kenneth Froelich
Tock is a single movement work for concert band that uses percussion and asymmetrical rhythms to mimic the "tocking" of a broken clock. The repetition of melodies and of motive fragments are used to establish a regular pulse; however, while this pulse is steady, it is not even. A five-four time signature, a syncopated bass line and irregular phrases are all used to offset the central beat of the music. Much like the clock, the end result is a dance that seems consistent but is in fact "broken." Its a work that is both fascinating and creative, excellent cutting-edge writing for upper-level ensembles.

Historically, a minuet was a graceful French dance of the 17th century, and this delightful work brings those same musical qualities to the young band. Gently flowing lines open the piece and introduce a lilting, dance-like work of charm and grace. Written in 3/4 time, it is both elegant and graceful, a musical treat that will be a joy to perform.

Slavic Scherzo (Furiant) - Joseph Compello
Inspired by the Slavonic Dances of Czech master Antonin Dvork, Joseph Compello has written his own Furiant, a Bohemian dance, usually in triple meter with frequently shifting accents. This dazzling little original piece makes much of the contrast between 6/8 and 3/4. This variety of rhythmic pulse gives the piece tremendous energy and momentum. Slavic Scherzo is a selection that will energize the band and delight the audience in equal measure.
