£113.30Cerimonial Ouverture - Lorenzo Pusceddu
This work is characterised by the strong presence of the brass section. Already in the introduction, a sombre pedal is followed by a dialogue between the trumpets and horns that augments as we are conducted to the luminous entrance of the entire band. The brass section, with the vital support of the percussion instruments, also dominates the subsequent movement. The central part is in decided contrast to the rest of the work;the woodwind section becomes the key protagonist of the scene, with sweet melodies and delicate, harmonious embellishments. The initial atmosphere then returns, with the former hierarchy re-established and the unequivocal finale features a powerful cord played by the brass section alone.

In ABA form, this is an excellent tool for teaching contrasting styles. The opening andante is not difficult and has 2nd and 3rd parts that are rhythmically independent and important. A percussion break leads to the majestic march featuring interesting lines for low reeds/brass.

Heros Tale - Daniel W. Chisham
A very playable, and very descriptive composition, this musical narrative tells the story of a hero and his adventure, musically leading us into a war with polytonality as the battleground. The upper winds introduce the main theme, which is then counterattacked by the lower winds. All this time the percussion plays a steady drone to the rhythm of the battle. The work ends with the hero emerging triumphantly in a majestic finale.

£121.00Third Vortex - Roland Barrett
From the creative pen of this talented young composer, we have Barretts latest contribution to the exciting contemporary literature for band. While not technically difficult, this work is extremely effective, as it presents four contrasting musical sections beginning with The Summoning, which opens with a very commanding tutti entrance that evolves into a quieter, mysterious section, then develops with a sense of urgency into a very strong dynamic ending. This is followed by Fear, a dramatic section with extensive use of percussion, leading to The Eye of the Vortex, beginning quietly, as it starts to develop to a great dynamic climax followed immediately by a serene quietness that leads to the final section, Fury, ending with a dramatic and furious finale. An exceptional, adventuresome new work!
