£110.00Mekong (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Smith, Robert W.
Mekong is a river that flows through the heart of Vietnam. Robert W. Smith has created this composition for band based on the Mekong River delta's historic significance during the Vietnam War of the 1960s and 1970s. Beautiful and haunting melodies, lush and dissonant harmonies and acoustically created sound effects combine to provide a concert performance experience that will not be forgotten by performer or audience. This piece completes a compositional journey the composer began in Korea to honor his father and those who served in Southeast Asia.

£77.50Ignition (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Stalter, Todd
Ignition is a blindingly fast, raucously energetic concert opener that derives its title from the consecutive rising three-note cells that are the building blocks for almost the entire work. However, the energy unleashed in the music and the imagery of the title serve both as a metaphor for the spark of creativity, and as a celebration in sound for those who find and follow their own true life's passion and pass it along to others, igniting the flame for another generation.Duration: 2.40
