High Voltage - Thierry Deleruyelle
High Voltage is an especially energetic composition in the big band style. The blaring brass and the ornate interplay of the woodwinds lend this work great character and conviction.

£49.00Lonely Travelers
Layering two songs which speak to the idea of searching for something beyond your current situation, this is an excellent piece for teaching an ensemble to blend so they can hear each other and not be individually heard. Using 900 Miles and The Wayfaring Stranger for compositional material, thematic elements from both are interwoven into the overall musical fabric. 900 Miles' lonely railroad worker is heard in woodwind train whistle effects and the homesickness of The Wayfaring Stranger, as heard in the movie "1917", is effectively portrayed by a moving treatment using long tones with a continuing rhythmic accompaniment. A strong concert, contest or festival choice, this work offers cross-curricular opportunities as well.

£180.00Concerto for Marimba and Band
This concerto has the character of a fantasia rather than a traditional concerto, unfolding in two broad sections. The first is quiet and serene, featuring rhapsodic melodies and transparent textures. The second builds from a powerful dynamic rise into a brief burst of fast, intense music before settling into a quiet, transcendent close.Scored originally for the U.S. Air Force Band, the work makes prominent use of cello sonorities. For ensembles without cellos, all cello parts have been cued into other instruments. Written for a five-octave marimba, the solo part may be adapted for smaller instruments where needed and requires no amplification. The solo marimba part has been edited by Randall Eyles.
