£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.

£78.95Early One Morning
Although the roots of this British folksong date back to the 18th century, the first publication of the melody was in the late 1850's in the collection "National English Airs". Early One Morning is the story of a young woman misused by her lover, as overheard by the singer. In the mid-1930's the tune was adapted as a military slow march called "The Globe and Laurel" for the Royal Marines band. This arrangement focuses on the lyricism of the original with just a hint of its later military associations. Only the 1st clarinets cross the break. 1st trumpet's highest note is F.
