£104.99Broadway Impressions - André Waignein
In Broadway Impressions, American-oriented music calls the tune. The introduction, which is lively and spectacular, immediately immerses us in the atmosphere of Broadway. All the sections of the band are presented with solo intermezzi for trumpet, clarinet and percussion interrupt the flow of the piece. The work is concluded in a finale that takes us back to the initial theme - this time enhanced more abundantly. A fantastic tribute to the great musical scene that is Broadway and one not to be missed!

£176.50Four Norfolk Dances - Philip Sparke
Norfolk is one of the most beautiful counties in England, famous for its charming villages and boundless broads, a popular centre for sailing holidays. It is also the home of one of the best known of all British composers, Sir Malcolm Arnold. The date of the premiere of this piece was to fall close to his 80th birthday, so Philip Sparke decided to write something of a birthday tribute. Some of Arnold's best-loved orchestral works are his sets of dances: there are two sets of English Dances, Four Scottish Dances, Four Cornish Dances etc., most of which have been arranged for concert band at one time or another. Philip Sparke thought it would be appropriate for the concert band tohave its own set of dances and wrote Four Norfolk Dances very much in the style of Arnold's suites.
