£109.99A Tribute to Bach - Axel Norman
Johann Sebastian Bach could not have wished for a better accolade. A Tribute to Bach is a daring arrangement of Bach's Partita no.2 for pianoforte and a homage to the grandmaster of Baroque in a modern orchestration. Arranger Axel Norman has achieved this by adding percussion tastefully to the original. The woodwind section of the band, however, plays the leading parts.

£84.99There is a land of pure delight
Isaac Watts (1674-1748) wrote the lyrics of "There is a land of pure delight" and is known as the "Father of English Hymnody". Watts was for the English hymn as Ambrose was for the medieval Latin hymn and what Martin Luther was for the German chorale. He wrote about 750 songs, and some of them survide the ravahes of time. (Joy To The World, When I survey the wondrous cross, I sing the Mighty Power of God) "There is a Land of Pure Delight" is usually in English-speaking areas sung on Luther Orlando Emerson's melody ('Ascription'). Here is used a traditional English melody ('Mendip'). There is a land of pure delight Wheresaints immortal Reign. Infinite day excludes the night, And pleasures banish pain ..

£140.80Music for a Movie Picture - Kees Vlak
Again a new edition in the Creative Compositions series. This piece was revolutionary in its time in 1972, because it was the first time a 5/4 bar had been used.. It is a real program piece with a film scenario setting, which can be shown in the beginning titles: (Corporated Pictures Presents, Costumed by, Music by etc.) and description of the scenes (the Hero drives away to the castle; the Count is playing golf; That night in the club). An inspiring work for the audience, who can sit back, close their eyes, and visualize the whole story in their minds.

£159.60Variations on a Japanese Folksong - Henk van Lijnschooten
The pentatonic, so characteristic of Japanese folk music, plays an important role in this work. After a short introduction, we hear the theme, which subsequently undergoes a number of metamorphoses. Sometime, the original theme gives way to other folk song elements. Towards the end, a new theme appears - a little Japanes dance tune - played by flutes and clarinets. Yet another theme arises from this. In the finale, the three themes come together, and finally the main theme predominates.

£116.40Little Studies on a Folk Song - Henk van Lijnschooten
These variations on a popular Dutch children's song about a 'Count from The Hague' are infact studies in orchestral playing. Aspects dealing with playing in tune; overall sound; ensemble playing; rhythm; articulation and dynamics are paid attention to.The scoring is stricktly limited to four-part-harmony, which makes this work suitable for incomplete orchestras or other windgroups and youth orchestras.When performing with a full band it is recommended to vary the scoring according to the character of each respective variation. In this way the conductor can have a creative share in the overall performance of this music.

£131.60Poem a la Carte - Manfred Schneider
As a French horn player, the successful German composer Manfred Schneider is familiar with brass instruments, so he took on the challenge of writing at a real Concerto for Trombone and Wind Band, which he called 'Poem a la carte'. The composition was commissioned by the JBK Sonthofen wind band. Though the 'misterioso' introduction already features some virtuoso passages for the soloist, the latter really takes off in the energetic allegro. Then comes a lyrical largo and the work ends with a sparkling allegro allowing the soloist to demonstrate true virtuosity.
