£7.95Barnaby Behaves Badly (Concert Band - Score Only) - Wiffin, Rob
This vivacious programme number was written for Barnaby (more often known as Barney), Simba's (see At The 'Splash' with Sim) predecessor in the composer's Golden Retriever succession. He was a very laid back and happy soul, not the brightest-ever retriever, but with the potential for a little mischief when the mood took him. It was written with the intention of being eminently playable so both the range and the technical demands are carefully controlled and the scoring is designed to make the music sound strong with a band of less experienced players.

£76.95A Tribute to Gershwin (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Gershwin, George - Bullock, Jack
There's not a composer recognised or performed in the classic pop genre more than Gershwin. In his tribute, Jack Bullock acknowledges this musical genius with eleven charming, yet distinctive, melodies that are all Gershwin. The fast-paced medley opens with "I Got Rhythm" and, in quick succession, threads through ten more tunes closing with the immortal "Rhapsody in Blue." I'll bet you find one or two that you didn't realise were Gershwin melodies! This one's a real champion.Duration: 6:45

£104.99Czardas (from Coppelia) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Delibes, Leo - Van der Beek, Wil
French composer Leo Delibes (1836-1891) was primarily known for his operettas and short comic operas. He was also famous for the ballet Coppelia from which arranger Wil van der Beek has transcribed the czardas for concert band. Characteristic of this work and the music of Delibes' in general are rhythmic, alternating melodies. Another trademark of Delibes' work is the skilful choice of instrumentation, a facet which this transcription honours thoroughly. The piece is a succession of the various themes the composer uses to work towards a brilliant climax.Duration: 3:45

£92.50Porgy and Bess (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Gershwin, George - Barnes, James
The music from this timeless masterwork has fascinated generation after generation. Oddly enough, at its premiere the critics presented mixed reaction: some calling it the pioneering work of a new folk-opera genre, and others condemning it as merely a succession of hit songs. Fortunately, time has secured its place in history. James Barnes has skilfully crafted a wonderful scoring of "I Got Plenty O' Nuttin'," "It Ain't Necessarily So," "Summertime," "Crab Man," and "Bess, You Is My Woman Now." Gershwin at his best!Duration: 8:15

£74.95A Fairground Suite (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Johnson, Stuart
One of Johnson, Stuarts most popular works for concert band is A Circus Suite, and he has often been asked to write a sequel. During a trip to a fairground with his children he was treated to a succession of rides, perhaps more for their benefit than his own, but during this entertaining afternoon he was alerted to the musical possibilities of each. His evocative musical descriptions offer everyone a chance of sharing the fun of the fair, and give the percussion plenty of opportunities to contribute, not all of them in a conventional manner!

Davy Crockett (Concert Band - Score and Parts)
In writing this piece, Gino Bergamini was inspired by the figure of Davy Crockett, hunter and pioneer in the colonisation of the western part of North America. The piece is built entirely on the smooth succession of intriguing themes and characterised by sharp rhythms. The themes, after a short elaboration with an expressive and meaningful style, return in a finale with rich sonority to recreate the fascinating atmosphere of that mythical hero Davy Crockett. 06:00

£75.00Infernal Ride (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Hesketh, Kenneth
Infernal Ride is mercurial and virtuosic, reflecting the mad-cap chase of Ichabod Crane's final ride on his horse, Gunpowder, in the story by Washington Irving, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Often an atmosphere of driven fear pushes the music forward, only briefly stopping for breath. The work closes with flourishes in rapid succession, perhaps with the hapless Ichabod meeting his unfortunate end. Duration: 7.00
