£66.95Dance Suite from - Michael Praetorius / arr. David Marlatt
is a collection of over 300 instrumental dance pieces by Michael Praetorius to which there were no instruments specified on the score. As a result these pieces have been performed by many combinations of woodwind, brass, and string instruments over the years. Four of these short pieces have been selected and orchestrated here for winds and percussion. Different consorts or families of instruments have been featured to contrast each other in range, timbre, volume, or character.

£62.95London Bridge
London Bridge was originally written for brass quintet and later scored for concert band. Below is the composer recalling the quintet version's premiere. London Bridge was designed to appeal to children, but also to the child remaining in the rest of us. It kind of developed asit went along and ended up where it is today if that makes any sense at all. A few days after the first draft was finished I took it to a clinic for high school band members at one of theAnchorage schools. The clinic was put on by the Canadian Brass who were in Anchorage on a concert tour. They sight read it at the clinic. I even asked them to autograph the parts. They did. I did not have the nerve to ask them what they thought about it, and they offered meno opinion. That may have been good. This is a terrific novelty piece that shows off the whole band, quotes famous pieces and allows the students to really have fun.

£150.00Aria Della Battaglia
The current edition of Gabrieli's was transcribed for the modern orchestra wind section from the Canto Dialoghi Musicali de Diversi Eccelentissimi Autori: Venice 1590. The work is subtitled "per sonare d'instrumenti da fiato" ("to be played by wind instruments") and is one in a long line of such descriptive works dating from the sixteenth century with no instrumental designation whatsoever. The popularity of this genre, however, did not fade with the close of the Renaissance. Rather, a rich development continued into the nineteenth century with Beethoven's Wellington's Victory, the so-called "Battle Symphony," being a latter-day example.

Capricorns love making their own rules and this piece is no exception. The opening fanfare and fugue display the relentless nature of these hardest workers of the zodiac. A contrasting middle section steps quickly into the determined and strong nature of our friends. The closing then reminds us why Capricorns so often make it---they never give up. With contrasting woodwind and brass choirs, rich harmonies, and inspiring melodies, by Frank McKinney brings a musical maturity to the sound of young bands.
