Tanga ! - Hans Vansant
This is a footloose and fancy-free song that will undoubtedly put your audience in that Mediterranean mood. "Tanga" is a simple but swinging piece of music and highly recommended, especially if you have a trumpet player in your band. The bridge section of this piece provides the opportunity to have a few Gringos shouting at each other in Spanish (optional). The words are provided for this. You'll think you're in Mexico thanks to the bossa nova of this concert.

Kennesaw Mountain Blues - Stephen Bulla
Blues to the MAX! With lots of drive and down home blues harmonies, KENNESAW MOUNTAIN BLUES will latch on to your audience for keeps.Very accessible to Grade 2 1/2 bands, this is one of the most enjoyable pieces you'll find for any level of ability. If you have a kickin' drumset player, so much the better. Every section has gratifying parts to play, and the easy mixed-meter section sounds so natural but will keep 'em all thinking.The concert band doesn't often get the chance to play in styles like this, which is a shame, because it's so much fun. How about letting your band try a style that's about as far from John Phillip Sousa as you can get! Get down with some Blues! KENNESAW MOUNTAIN BLUES is a winner!

£64.99Pegasus - James Curnow
A new and different approach to the young band overture! This engaging grade 1 1/2 composition is a wonderful contrast to whatever you program for your concert or festival appearance.

James Curnow's Pegasus will help you move your band in the right direction. You may also wish to use Pegasus as a cross-curricular connection with other disciplines.Solid!

£104.99Variations on Shalom Chaverim - Andreas Ludwig Schulte
Shalom Chaverim is an ancient Hebrew (farewell)song, which was originally sung at the end of a celebration or meeting. It was and is mostly sung as a round. Freely translated the words mean "Goodbye, friends, goodbye and see you again!". The varying moods at a parting have been captured very well by Andreas Schulte in his arrangement 'Variations on Shalom Chaverim'. The composer himself says about the song, 'Although the melody is in a minor key, the overall atmosphere in the song is positive. one wishes each other all the best. Saying goodbye, however, also hurts. When you slow down the pace of the melody and add 'blue notes' in the harmonies, this can be sensed immediately.'Schulte refers here to the first variation. The second variation is very intense with possibly even deeper-felt emotions. 'Variations on Shalom Chaverim' ends on a cheerful and positive note, in fast tempo, and with oriental elements in the melody: 'L'hitra'ot, Shalom' (See you again, and farewell!).
