£274.99Where Angels Fly - Kevin Houben
Commissioned by Banda de Musica Municipal de Silleda (ES), Kevin Houben has written this work for the Certamen de Valencia 2018 in Spain. Where Angels Fly is a very technical, powerful and virtuoso work, with a rather fragile and soft introduction in which the main motif derived from Paul Gilson's La Prire from Le Retour aux Pays is developed and also includes Houben's own musical signature 'HBE(N)'. Where Angels Fly is a challenging, impressive and virtuosic contest piece.

£141.99Funiculi-Funicula Rhapsody - Luigi Denza
This famous melody was written for the 1880 opening of Mt. Vesuvius' funicular railway, lyrics were by Peppino Turco. Mr. Goto's fantasy commands immediate excitement with unmuffled percussion and bold fanfares that segue into a proper tarantella and trombone soli. Carefully observe relative dynamics throughout the 6/8 section, and give all dotted quarter notes equal treatment. Dynamic contrast is critical to maintaining interest in the returning melodic line. The alto/tenor voiced counter line at G should dominate. Take advantage of the novel woodwinds solis at H emphasizing lower voices. The polyrhythmic feel at J and K is best conducted in one; have all "play to" the melody. Enjoy the romantic potential of section L and do not exceed the indicated tempo. Sections N and O can be decidedly mechanical. Certainly "pull out the stops" at the concluding 6/8, but continue to observe all tempi and dynamics for a most effective finale.
