    Anglesey Seascapes (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Glyn, Gareth - Noble, Paul

    Gareth Glyn lives on the island of Anglesey, where the encircling sea has always been indivisible from the mythology, history and everyday life and work of its people. This cycle of short miniatures, in a light music vein, seeks to represent various aspects of the sea as seen from five vantagepoints around the coast of Anglesey. The whole work is bound together by recurring musical motifs which change their character according to the prevailing mood. 1. Llanddwyn (Reverie): Island of the Welsh patron saint of lovers, Dwynwen, whose marriage to Maelon was never to be, and who dedicated her life to God. 2. Malltraeth (Pastorale): A brisk walk along Cob Malltraeth, a high dyke built to keep out the sea. 3. Penmon (Intermezzo): From a vantage point by the sacred priory of St Seiriol, old sailing ships and modern yachts can be seen scudding by in Regatta week. 4. Cemaes (Scherzo): The bustle of children's play and donkey-rides on the beach in midsummer. 5. Moelfre (Elegy): In remembrance of innumerable souls lost in shipwrecks off this coast, including the Royal Charter with its loss of 452 lives.

    Austrian Overture (Concert Band - Score and Parts)

    Austria is an industrious country. During the last century--which was characterized by extreme changes--the hard-working and ambitious people achieved a great deal, enduring two world wars and numerous political skirmishes. Despite all the problems involved in a change from a dual monarchy to a small state, Austria has found its independence. With his Austrian Overture, Thomas Doss looks toward the future. The first part of the composition provides an optimistic outlook; along with the happiness and energy, some musical humor is also present: while the horns powerfully express joy, small yodeling melodies sound throughout. As the rhythm continues in search of new ways to go, catchy tunes compete to be heard. However, in addition to the energetic, diligent Austria, there's also the quiet landscape where one can enjoy repose and beauty. These aspects - as well as the freedom of spirit and cultural life -are conveyed in the second part of the work through the surprising linking of chords, romantic phrasing, and tender melodies. But life never stands still: creativity, ambition, and work are the driving forces of our existence. Embracing this thought, a reprise of the first part provides a compelling ending. 10:26

    Dolce Vita (Concert Band - Score and Parts)

    The old German fishing village of Hartheim is situated on the river plain of the Rhine between the mountain Kaiserstuhl and the countryside Markgr?flerland. Its inhabitants enjoy life, and they know how to celebrate and have a good time. Wim Laseroms has captured the relaxed atmosphere of the village in this cheerful march. Dolce Vita is an expression of thanks to the band's most loyal fans for their support in the past, and it expresses how music can have a positive effect on the quality of life in a village. 03:00

    Variations on 'Was Lebet' (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wainwright, Andrew

    Variations on 'Was Lebet' is based on the German chorale of the same name, the first line of which translates as 'O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness!' The opening fanfare figure in the Trumpets should be supported by bold, organ-like sostenuto chords in the lower band. Ensure that the fanfare in the Trumpets and Trombones from bars 25 to 28 is given equal articulation and volume in the antiphonal parts. After this majestic introductory section, the first of five contrasting variations is presented, although the tune is never realised in full form until the final variation, with fragments gradually being revealed as the piece progresses.Variation I is somewhat classical in approach, with its energy coming from a regular contrast between cantabile references to the theme, set against lively staccato figures. Ensuring a lightness of touch will be important here; the music should be poised and never sound frantic. As a result, careful attention should be paid to the tempo marking, being no quicker than 136 beats per minute. Snippets of the chorale come and go, with the last phrase of the hymn completing the movement. This final statement, at bar 95, should be an immediate change in tempo and a separate statement to the music that comes before.Variation II is plaintive in mood, giving the listener the chance to reflect on the following words, which form part of the second verse: 'Comfort thy sorrows and answer thy prayerfulness, Guiding thy steps as may best for thee be.' There is opportunity for rubato in this movement, at the discretion of the conductor.Variation III is somewhat quirky and volatile in nature, and takes its inspiration from the 3rd and 4th verses which describe the fearful times in life that we must entrust to the Lord. Driven by the Percussion section in particular, there are references here to Variation I with its chorale-like figures and hurtling scalic figures, and there is a feeling of a lack of resolution. A somewhat abrupt ending suggests that our sense of completeness in Christ is yet to be resolved. It is important that clarity and tempo are maintained in the bass line between sections L and M. Aim for consistency of line in the bass parts, particularly with the trade-offs between players here.There is a French romantic feel to the waltz in Variation IV, with the opportunity for various soloists to display their musicianship. A sense of ironic humour pervades throughout. The Clarinet and Bassoon duet from section U should be playful and display a lightness of touch, with that sense of style continued throughout the movement.Variation V is fugal in nature, with each section of the band being handed the theme at various points. Again it is important that a steady tempo is set at Y in order to maintain control. The sense of momentum gradually increases to a grandiose presentation of the full theme, beginning at section CC, affirming our completeness in the Lord, with the words of the first and last verses reiterated: O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! Bow down before him, his glory proclaim; With gold of obedience and incense of lowliness, Kneel and adore him, the Lord is his name.Duration: 11.45
