£59.00The Codebreakers (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Budiansky, Mollie
Music can at times feel as if it is a secret code. Cracking the code, be it notation on a page or a new set of vocabulary words, is cause for celebration, and "The Codebreakers" is a joyous look at music as a shared language. Scored generously to accommodate young bands both large and small, this concert work presents distinct melodies both independently and stacked on top of one another, meant to interlock like a solved puzzle. "The Codebreakers" serves as a teaching opportunity to discuss melodies and countermelodies; interpreting the same material in different styles; and listening across the band for shared lines. Every section gets a chance to be featured, and the low brass and woodwinds will especially love their moment in the spotlight. Duration: 3.15

£75.00Fiesta (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Anderson, Keiron
This piece is a celebration and can be played at any happy occasion. It was written to celebrate 30 years of the Nottingham Symphonic Wind Orchestra in 2017. The music grows from syncopated rhythms and a five note motif which is use to form melody and chords. There is a strong rhythmic undercurrent in percussion and in the interplay between sections. The motif is clearly heard in the flutes and clarinets in an imitative section before the key changes to form a second theme on the oboe then the flute. These secondary themes are still formed from the original motif before the music recapitulates the multi time signatures from earlier in the piece. The relentless pace drives the music to a flourish of upper woodwind and a syncopated brass coda. Duration: 4.30

£100.00Agnus Dei (from Mass of the Children) (Concert Band with opt. Choir - Score and Parts) - Rutter, John - Noble, Paul
The William Blake (1757-1827) poem, The Lamb, featured in this movement, is a poignant message relating to the precious lives of our children. In the setting for band alone, the children's choir part is set for solo trumpet, and the darker beginning (Agnus Dei, miserere nobis) is further enhanced by muted brass and the pulsating heart-beat of the bass drum, felt, but rarely heard.

£89.95Variations on 'Laudate Dominum' (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Gregson, Edward - Wiffin, Rob
The theme is a noble hymn tune by Sir Hubert H. Parry, associated with the words 'O praise ye the Lord'. There are seven contrasting variations that will provide much interest to the player as well as the listener, the seventh of which is a fugato which leads into a triumphant finale where the theme is heard for the first time in its completion. This, we feel, will be a significant work for Wind Band as it has been for the brass band movement.

£89.99The Last Centaur (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Galante, Rossano
Composed in the style of a grand and descriptive film score, The Last Centaur is a musical depiction of a centaur who is separated from his family by war, the ensuing adventures, and ultimate reunion with his family and friends. The music begins with a stately, lyrical theme in the horns followed by solo oboe. This main theme is then woven throughout the work as it develops and grows with intensity. Sweeping woodwind lines and majestic brass fanfares capture the excitement of the drama and ultimate joyous resolution. Powerful and evocative writing! Dur: 6:00 (Recorded by the West Genesee (NY) High School Wind Ensemble - Andrew Perry, conductor)

£104.99Oriental Postcards (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Crausaz, Etienne
Oriental Postcards is comprised of three variations on a theme with an Eastern character: in From Egypt, the theme is contrastingly first played in brass and then in woodwind; in From the Desert the drums play an important role; and in From the Orient Express the theme appears in a dun, light-hearted guise. This catchy composition was especially written for young musicians and is especially suitable for youth bands.Duration: 6:40
