£228.70Celebration for Band - John Brakstad
Many Norwegian bands have grown up around factories, but Norwegian factories are often located in the countrysides - by a fjord or lake, by a river or waterfall that provided power for the factory. The factory was the foundation for the existence of the community, but it was also essential for the community's cultural life, choirs, bands etc. (cp. British brass bands and mining). "Celebration for band" tries to give a picture of the environment and life around a band like this, with both factory noise and the natural world (Pastorale), as well as the challenges and development of the band itself. The composition is built up of five connected episodes: - Fanfare and Prologue (concludes with a feeling of the untamed power of the river) - Pastorale I: " At the river" - Intermezzo: " The Factory" (starts with the opening of water for the turbines: snare drum. Factory whistle and bell call to work, and the spinning and weaving machinery starts up.) - Pastorale II: " Summer evening on the fjord." - Finale: " Challenge and Progress"

£71.50Hillcrest - Nancy H. Seward
This bright, happy selection presents a review of all the common sixteenth-note patterns. It is perfect for rhythm studies, and for work on good, appropriate articulation. A legato, lyrical section in the middle provides a contrasting style and the opportunity to focus on playing musical phrases with alternating brass and woodwind sonorities.

£104.50Introit and Celebration - Tom Mitchell
This work opens with a dramatic adagio maestoso consisting of broad contrasting rhythms and dissonant brass harmonies. It then leads to the bright allegro con spirito that is marked with rhythmic chordal figures under flowing melodic lines and exciting meter changes. A brief andante expressivo supplies a change of mood and texture before the grandiose and powerful ending. A highlight for any program.
