£105.80Oros, Little Suite - Daniele Carnevali
This piece was commissioned for the second edition of the "Suoni d'Aspromonte" National Competition which is held in Cittanova in the province of Reggio Calabria. The title, Oros, from the ancient Greek word for "mount", is a clear reference to the Greek culture that colonised Calabria and the magnificence of the Aspromonte massif that dominates the entire region: forests, towns and sea. The piece consists of three movements: Entrata, Serenata and Corteggio, offering rhythms and melodies that reflect present-day tastes rather than local musical traditions. It is specifically intended for bands with lots of young members.

Little Suite for Summer - Peter Schickele
These seven charming pieces were written by Mr. Schickele for his son's eight birthday, with the Primo part being easy enough for his son to play. The titles of the pieces were suggested by the music: CHA, CHA, CHA BOOMDEEAY because of the first movement's clangorous ending: NORTH STAR, with a hushed and lyrical melody inspired by the composer's stargazing: FOR CHARLIE THE PARROT, a vivid musical description of the imitative abilities of this bird: DUSK ON THE PALISADES, with its evocative ougmented chord textures: SORE IN THE SADDLE AGAIN, a delightful spoof of the well-known Western melody: GREASED LIGHTENING, with its flying runs and scales: and MINK HOLLOW MORNING,because of its gentle sostenuto lines and legato accompaniment figures-a musical description of a quiet and happy summer morning in the country. The Primo part is very easy, the Secondo is mostly easy medium. For studios, schools, some college & professional. Easy medium.

£137.99A Little Klezmer Suite - Philip Sparke
A Little Klezmer Suite was commissioned by Rushton Park High School to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their band programme. They gave the premiere in a virtual online concert in October 2020. Klezmer music originated in the 'shtetl' (villages) and the ghettos of Eastern Europe, where itinerant Jewish troubadours, known as 'klezmorim', had performed at celebrations, particularly weddings, since the early Middle Ages. 'Klezmer' is a Yiddish term combining the Hebrew words 'kley' (instrument) and 'zemer' (song). The roots of the style are found in secular melodies, popular dances, Jewish 'hazanut' (cantorial music) and also the 'nigunim', the wordless melodies intoned by the 'Hasidim' (orthodox Jews). The melodies used in the four movements of A Little Klezmer Suite have traditionally been used in Jewish wedding ceremonies and celebrations.

£122.50Suite - Istvan Bogar
Istvn Bogr's series of movements intended for youngsters is colourfully instrumented, evocative music, rich in melodic invention; in character it is most closely akin to Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker ballet music. In the opening movement (Little march), little boys wearing paper shakos on their heads and carrying wooden swords play at soldiers. The following movement, Humming, is the only movement in the suite that is calm and in odd-numbered rhythm; in it the children gather flowers in their little baskets, and meanwhile hum pleasant tunes. The third movement is a funny game, with its tempo sometimes speeding up, sometimes slowing down, but by the end really going wild.The title of the finale is Game of tag. The tiny formal sections and interludes in this lively, cheerful music are linked together by a recurring rondo theme, and the chase ends with a brief coda.
