£61.00Highschool Dixie - John Philip Sousa
In 1890 'The High School Cadets', a popular drill team attached to the very first high school in Washington D.C., asked John Philip Sousa to write a march for the group. They requested a 'better' march than the one Sousa had written for their rivals 'The National Fencibles'. Indeed, The High School Cadets became one of the most popular of Sousa's 136 marches. Pi Scheffer wrote this fine arrangement with Dixieland combo, which was made extremely popular by the recording made by the famous Dutch Swing College Band.

£61.00Glenn Swings Low - Glenn Miller
No doubt, Jef Penders has a slight preference for Glenn Miller's music. After compositions such as Glenn meets Wolfgang, Glenn beats the Battle of Jericho, Glenn mocks about with the Clarinet and Glenn plays after the Ball, here is a fine arrangement in the Glenn miller style of the famous Negro Spiritual Swing low Sweet Chariot. An excelent mixture of two styls with the usual gift of Maestro Jef Penders.

£116.40Play it Cool - Afonso Alves
Light piece in three parts, each one picking up distinct parts of north-american music appreciated by Afonso Alves. The swing, the 60's with Elvis Presley and the disco hype are all remembered in this piece of challenging execution and rythmical richness, where the initial solos give place to a powerful soli in the last movement.

£116.40St. Louis Fantasie - Peter Kleine Schaars
In this fantasy, the band develops itself starting from a flute cadenza and an oboe solo and then develops through a slow blues in the woodwinds, a big band passage and a tango into a sparkling swing band. The score contains a solo passage for a Dixieland band noted in all parts. Some obbligato improvisations help the splendid orchestration to make a thrilling experience of this piece.

£56.50Movin' Up! - Dean Jones
The beat just rolls on! Movin' Up! is very much a sequel to Dean Jones' previous work Hangin' On! There are the usual sounds you'd expect from a swing band piece: vibrant sounding from the trumpets and trombones and then a layered harmonious texture from the horns and baritones. There's also scope for some top class solo work too around the band. There is one twist at the end... the pace is slowed down, the 'top button and bow tie loosened', but the scene is set and concluded with exciting brass sounds.

£38.20Marching Time - Kees Vlak
The versatile Dutch composer Kees Vlak (Amsterdam 1938) proves that also he knows how to write a fine march. 'Marching Time' is a kind of pastiche of a thrilling swing march as introduced with US Air Force Bands by Glenn Miller's version of 'Saint Louis Blues March'. Vigorous drum solos give this modern march a martial character so that it can easily be used as an original quick march. This march was composed in 1980 and was commissioned by the S.O.M.N.O., the then umbrella organization for all Dutch band associations.
