£102.99Variations on an Austrian Folksong (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Oswald, Gerald
Hot off the press! Composer Gerald Oswald bases this new work on an old Austrian folksong, O du lieber Augustin! The Augustin in questions is a ballad singer and an ad lib poet who apparently wrote this folksong about himself. His grim sense of humour and his attitude towards life, that humour can get you through anything, are readily apparent in this new piece. Gerald Oswald's Variations on an Austrian Folk Song received top honours at the 2010 Austrian Composition Contest.Duration: 6:45

Scheherazade is Rimsky-Korsakov's amazing musical interpretation of the tales of the Arabian Nights as told to the sultan by his wife who is destined to be executed.

Woodwinds soar with the lyrical melodies of The Young Prince and Princess, and the full band shines in the exciting selection from The Story of the Kalendar Prince. Scheherazade Selections will make a successful addition to any concert.Duration: 3.00

£159.99Kebek (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan
This rhapsody reflects the four seasons combined with the natural scenery that characterises the city of Quebec and its surrounding region. Autumn is depicted with hunting horns playing in the forest, followed by a pastoral melody, principally in the woodwinds. Winter in the mountains is poetic and romantic. Spring arrives with a frolicsome and playful theme mirroring the start of new life. Soon everything flowers lushly, and the music swells into the full sounding energy of summer, bringing the work to a brilliant and dynamic close. A great work for any time of year.Duration: 14:30

£189.99Manhattan Pictures (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan
In this colourful composition, Jan van der Roost recreates the energetic and multi-racial city life in Manhattan, using four contrasting movements. The opening movement is rather short and rhythmical. In the second "Picture", a variety of musical entities accumulate into a coloured "sound curtain", on top of which the brass section presents a broad theme. In contrast to the two previous movements, the third movement is extremely quiet, featuring the first flute, clarinet an oboe in broad melodies. Again, the orchestration plays an essential role. Following on a majestic "tutti" (almost "movie-like....) the serenity of the very beginning reappears. Finally, the nervousness and dynamic style of the two first movements come back in an exciting apotheosis with rich and sometimes surprising instrumentation which explores the multiple possibilities of the large symphonic wind band to the full.Duration: 13.00

£64.35At Ease!
Personal stories from two generations of servicemen led to this charming and unique trumpet trio. Written in honor of the composer's grandfather, this setting represents the atmosphere in the barracks "after hours" when the soldiers aren't quite as gung-ho as usual. Unfortunately, inspections can happen without warning, and the troops quickly assemble, clean up their bunks, and display their staunch military discipline... until the officer leaves, and life can return to normal. With just minor tempo adjustments, this delightful piece is effective for players and audiences of all ages. A great, light-hearted bit of fun for your next concert!
