£76.80Strangers in the Night - Singleton/Bert Kaempfert
Quite and desolate streets in a cold grey night. Two lonely people meet each other and a love story begins. This was what I saw in my imagination while arranging this famous evergreen. The leading parts in this romantic story are played by the oboe (soprano saxophone in the fanfare band) and the euphonium. Harald Suilen

£90.30Western Sax Duo - Uri Hodorov
This composition, which puts the spotlight on the alto and tenor saxophone(s), is a real acquisition for the original repertoire. Uri Hodorov wrote it in 1998. Besides the saxophones, the flutes, the complete clarinet family and the snare drum also boast solo parts. Some exhalation effects, produced by all the members of the band, cause some strange effects. No doubt, here you have an original composition, which will please both the musicians and the audience.

£52.70Custom Ballad - Peter Kleine Schaars
This is the fourth movement of the five-part suite 'Nomenclatura' commissioned by the Dutch Customs Band 'Douane Harmonie Nederland'. This movement is a quiet ballad, that could be considered as a quiet moment in the suite, introduced by the woodwinds (especially the English horn) and melodic percussion whereafter the trumpet, the horn and the saxophone sections join, before the lower brass and percussion completes the group.A fine tune and a well-balanced orchestration are the biggest assets of this nice ballad.

£154.60Den store dagen - Benny Borg
This beautiful song contains a huge contrast between the hopeful and the disappointing. A mother has her birthday and is waiting her children to celebrate it. Each verse starts optimistically, but the short chorus is characterized by the disappointment, that everyone calls, and cannot come. This has been tried recreated musically, mostly in the last two choruses, as it dawns on her that she will not receive a visit. It's a beautiful tune, but with a serious message that it's easy to take someone for granted.One of the elements the musicians came up with after rehearsal, was that they really liked the change between the ballad parts with even eights and the swing parts. This also gives the piece a sense of "parlando" character, which tells a story, and is therefore important to focus. It is not quite simple, as the melody also in those parts with even eights has some triplet rhythms. Therefore, this is a topic you can work on.Regarding instrumentation, Flugelhorn, Alto Saxophone and Euphonium have important roles, in addition to the rest of the first parts in the Band. The arrangement is written so you are not depending on "special" instruments. Important details are also often duplicated so you can use the arrangement for a smaller Wind Band.It is also possible to use a vocal soloist, but then you must soften the instruments that holds the melody.

£104.50Heart Of The City - Gary P. Gilroy
The energy generated by this work is virtually electric! This most singular work is alive with the spirit and sounds of New York City. One can sense the busy sidewalks, the zooming traffic and the "cool" side as a sultry alto saxophone solo transports the listener to one of the citys jazz clubs. A return of the opening musical material takes you to the streets and drives relentlessly to an intensely satisfying conclusion!

£104.50Variations On A Mighty Fortress - Darren W. Jenkins
A truly powerful setting that is worthy of this famous hymn that uses an impressive set of three variations. It opens with a slow, legato presentation of the melody stated by solo trumpet followed by the first lively variation, driven by a strong rhythmic accompaniment. The second variation features an alto saxophone solo that builds and alternates between woodwind and brass choirs before closing with a majestic fanfare and the full ensemble driving to a jubilant conclusion. Extremely uplifting!
