£64.00Boom Town
Boom Town evokes the energetic, fast-paced life of a frontier town during the American West. The piece is inspired by the sounds of construction and dynamite blasts as well as the "boom" of pre-concert adjustments made by musicians. The performance incorporates a unique element where musicians lift their chairs and drop them in time with the rhythm, creating an explosive effect. While this should be done safely, it adds to the visual and auditory excitement. The piece alternates between intense, rhythmic passages and quieter, more lyrical moments, with careful attention given to dynamics and articulation. It also offers an opportunity for audience participation during the "Boom! Boom!" shouts.

£131.00Symphony No. 5
This four movement piece was composed around three recognized chorale melodies: Durch Adams Fall ("Through Adam's Fall") in the first movement; O Lamn Gottes, unschuldig ("O Lamb of God, without Blame") in the second movement; and Christ lag in Tdesbanden ("Christ Lay in the Bonds of Death") in the third and fourth movements. Although Maslanka's works usually portray feelings of loss and grief, Symphony No. 5 is filled with a bright and hopeful energy. The music continually speaks to the theme of transformation - the transformation of tears into power, and the victory of life over death.
