At a Turkish Market - William Owens
This intrepid new work paints a vivid picture of the wonderfully rambunctious outdoor markets for which Turkey is world famous. The driving dance is passed throughout the ensemble, and plenty of percussion makes it interesting for all. The middle section lightens things up a bit before the market becomes chaotic one final time. An obvious choice that your students and audience will love! (1:30)

£109.99A Tribute to Bach - Axel Norman
Johann Sebastian Bach could not have wished for a better accolade. A Tribute to Bach is a daring arrangement of Bach's Partita no.2 for pianoforte and a homage to the grandmaster of Baroque in a modern orchestration. Arranger Axel Norman has achieved this by adding percussion tastefully to the original. The woodwind section of the band, however, plays the leading parts.

£60.99Soldiers Song - Patrick Millstone
As long as we can remember, trumpets and percussion have been the instruments most closely associated with the army and its soldiers. Just think of the medieval herald who publicly proclaimed all the king's important announcements. This work opens with a festive fanfare which immediately calls for your attention. No tidings of disaster, but a festive parade of soldiers passing by while whistling merrily. This idea was the composer's starting point when writing this cheerful little piece.

£154.99Concertino for Xylophone - Jan Bosveld
This composition was commissioned by "Koningin Wilhelmina Wamel" on the occasion of its one hundred year anniversary. That it is a composition for xylophone and concertband lies in the fact that Harmony has a very talented, young percussion player in the person of Barry Jurjes. The piece is both melodically and harmonically based on four notes (C - Dflat - F - G). The structure is divided into four parts: slow - fast - slow - fast.

The colors of the orchestra, including percussion, come in a special way to ring in the epic Choral Music. That the tuba-playing composer also a gifted organist is, you can imagine very well after listening to this wonderfull Choral Music.

£60.99Dutch Christmas Song
'Dutch Christmas Song' is an arrangement of the old Dutch song 'Hoe leit dit Kindeke' (Vlaanderen, 1897). The tender, almost fragile words have been movingly honoured by Timothy Travis. The addition of percussion gives this lovely Christmas song a modern touch.

£76.99Introduction & Punk - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen
Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen's (1964) way of composing can be described as: uncompromising, wilful and contemporary. It is not surprising, therefore, that this occasionally causes a stir. In the middle of the Seventies a trend arose in youth culture, which was characterized by provocation, distrust of the great ideologies, and the autonomy of the individual. Punk is playful, aggressive, often humorous, and anti-everything, which inevitably leads to self-irony. The first part of Aagaard-Nielsen's composition (Introduction) is a texture based mainly on one short theme. This pompous theme breathes a spirit of cold empty plains, where icy winds sigh around yourhead. In the vehement Punk (Presto barbaro!) there is no longer any question of a theme. The basis for this part is formed by a repetitive motif (a descending minor third). This motif is alternated with very powerful percussion beats and later on shrill harmonies.

£84.99Let's Celebrate - Dagmar Kildevann
Is there something to be celebrated? Then let's play 'Let's Celebrate'! This four-part suite has been based on two birthday songs: the world-famous 'Happy Birthday to you' (which is also sung in many other languages), and the Dutch song 'Lang zal hij/zij leven'. The Fanfare opens in grand style with the motif of 'Lang zal hij leven' and is followed by a cheerful March in which the motifs of both songs can be heard. The third part, Song, forms a moment of contemplation, and the birthday presents are unwrapped by the percussion section in the fourth part, Surprise Party. The yell may be adapted to the occasion. (the sleigh bells caused the composer to note down this somewhat peculiar yell). Of course everybody is expected to join in.

Chant and Jubilo - W. Francis McBeth
New flex band arrangement by Clarence Barber, playable on any SSATB combination of woodwind, brass, or string players with optional percussion. This title has been recognized as one of the most outstanding of the composer's works and is justly regarded as one of the classics of the band repertoire. In anticipation of the composer's 35th Anniversary with Southern Music, the editors reexamined this masterwork in 1996 in order to prepare a new edition embodying the composer's experience in conducting this work for many years.
