£164.95FOLK SONGS FOR BAND (Set 2) (Novello Symphonic) - Stanhope, David
Score & Parts. A Leadsman, Landsmen and Dances begins with The Jolly Sailor, a boisterous portrait of the subject. Then comes O Shepherd, O Shepherd, Won't You Come Home? which perhaps presents both austere and idyllic aspects of the countryside. Rufford Park Poachers is a heart-felt tribute to Grainger, who once said, somewhat bitterly, that the true worth of his own music would never be gauged until it was understood to be a pilgrimage to sorrows. The Keel Row is an attempt to depict a spontaneous folk-dance for the musical and the not-so-musical.

£40.95NEW RIVER TRAIN (Amercan Folk Song) (Beginning Band) - Ployhar, James D.
In this age of space travel and jet aircraft flying faster than sound, it's just plain fun to get a bit nostalgic and think back to the days when travel meant steam engines and clickety-clacking railroad cars. Trains are a romantic link to a colourful period of our history, and James Ployhar brings this vision to your concert stage with no danger of flying soot, just good memories. Your audience and your percussion section will get lots of mileage out of the train whistle. (duration 1:14)

£154.60Strilefunk - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen
The piece was commissioned by the Norwegian Band Federation Hordaland and conductor Arvid Anthun for the 40th anniversary of Hordaland Youth Band in 2021. The piece is dedicated to Arvid Anthun.Several of our collaborations have focused on arranging and performing Norwegian folk music. This includes projects such as the one Manger Musikklag undertook in the late 90s, concerts, and recording sessions with Jlster Musikklag alongside the fiddler Sigmund Eiks, and now, for the anniversary concert of Hordaland Youth Band.Arvid desired folk music in a modern style. We discussed, among other things, Valter Aamodt's "Hordarapsodi," and he mentioned my Norwegian Dance, a funky piece where I incorporate a folk tune as a crucial element. Aamodt uses the melody "Eg rodde meg ut," or "Strilevise," as it is also known, in his rhapsody.The concept for Strilefunk was therefore to utilize one of the melodies Aamodt had used and additionally draw on the rhythmic experiences that we, as modern band musicians, bring from other genres.Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen

£205.30Mitt hjerte alltid vanker - Fantasi - Hans Adolph Brorson
This arrangement was commissioned by B3 (The Bergen Woodwind Ensemble). B3 is a large woodwind ensemble located in Bergen with a mix of professional and amateur players. My Heart Remains in Wonder is a well-known Christmas hymn in Scandinavia. I wanted my version to be different to the traditional hymn tune style in which it is normally performed. One day I was outside walking and this idea came to me: an ostinato-like, mechanical skeleton of arpeggio semiquavers on which I could 'hang' the melody. However, I also wanted to do the melody line a bit different. The inspiration for this comes from folk music and the way fiddlers hardly ever lift their bow off the strings when they play. Because of this, it is important that the melody is played in a very sostenuto style in this arrangement. The harmonies lie somewhere between jazz and folk music with a little nod towards Grieg (himself heavily influenced by folk music) in the slow middle section.
