£159.99The Spirit of Winnipeg - Georges Sadeler
During the last ice age, Glacial Lake Agassiz was the largest lake in the world, spanning vast areas of Canada and the USA, with numerous lakes forming in its basin, including Lake Winnipeg. The beginning of this composition illustrates how the ice of the prehistoric glacier slowly melts, drop by drop, signaling the end of the ice age. Vegetation in Canada begins to flourish once again, and the first rays of a new era illuminate the majestic Lake Winnipeg. Life reawakens as Canada's indigenous people sing their sun dance, traverse the prairie on horseback, and engage in hunting. The conclusion of the composition pays tribute to this splendid, shimmering Lake Winnipeg and its indigenous inhabitants.

£149.99Nemu-Susato - Jan Van der Roost
Commissioned by the Japan Band Clinic Committee of Yamaha for the Nemu Band Directors Clinic in Nemu no Sato, May 18-20, 1997.The surprising title of this work is an indication of its content. By combining the somewhat similar names 'Nemu no Sato' and 'Susato' into a new word, Jan Van der Roost has produced a significant and interesting subject. The Yamaha corporation has extensive facilities in Nemu no Sato, Japan, including a concert hall, recording studios, hotel and so on. Concerts, workshops, clinics and other events are held here, including the annual Nemu Band Directors Clinic, which consists of numerous musical events. Jan Van der Roost served as guest conductor andspeaker in 1994. He was invited again for the 1997 clinic, this time with a composition assignment. The difficulty level of his new piece was to be Grade 2 - 3 bands. With this in mind, Mr. Van der Roost strove to create a renaissance-like sound. Simultaneously he wished to create a tribute to Tielman Susato who, like Jan Van der Roost, lived and worked in Antwerp in the 16th century. The first performance of Nemu-Susato was conducted by the composer, performed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Band, and took place during the Nemu Band Directors Clinic on May 19, 1997.
