£52.95Escadrille (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Orcino, Leonard A.
Early in World War I (1916), prior to the USA entering the conflict, Americans joined the French Air Corps. They were originally called the Escadrille Americaine and the name was changed to Escadrille de Lafayette after protest from the Germans that America was not in the war. The Escadrille had a reputation for daring recklessness and a party atmosphere. The corps mascots were two lion cubs, Whiskey and Soda. The insignia was an American Indian head with a flowing war bonnet. The entire squadron merged with the American Air corps (1918) once the USA entered the war.Duration: 2.30

£137.99Odyssee Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
The Odyssee tells the story of Odysseus, the undaunted hero. In times long ago the blind poet Homer wrote this famous epic. The "Odyssey" follows the "Iliad", the story of the bloody war between the Greek and the Trojans. This battle ends after ten years thanks to the Odysseys famous trick. the Trojan Horse. The Odyssey is not a war epic, but a story about perseverance, loyalty, adventure, and the survival instinct of its ingenious hero. In The Odyssey, Homer describes how Odysseus, the king of Ithaca, had to endure another ten years of affliction after the ten years of war in Troy before he could finally return to his home land. During those years, his wife, Penelope, had to try and keep her many admirers away. These men not only wanted het hand but also the kingship. To prove her husbands worth, she played a trick: "As soon as I have finished weaving this shroud for my father-in-law, Laertes, I will choose one of you to become my husband", she promised them. But during the night, she secretly loosened what she had woven during the day, prolonging the time until Odysseus would finally return. After twenty long years, when he finally stood at the door, she wondered: Is this really my husband? Is he an imposter? Cunningly, she asked him to move the bed, because only she and her husband know that the bed was immovable and was build around an old three trunk! Odysseus was deeply moved: this really was his wife, his Penelope! Nearly three thousands years later, the loyalty and strength of this character, and all the dangerous adventures that Odysseus survived thanks to courage and intelligence, still moves us today. Odyssee by Jan Bosveld is not just an adventure story, but rather a characteristic piece in which memories of Homers story can be heard. The composition opens with a firm, stirring theme describing our hero, Odysseus, in detail: This man is not to be taken lightly. The further development of this short introduction completes this character sketch: trustworthy, perseverant, and a genius. After that we can picture Odysseus on the lonely beach of Ogygia. Do the trumpets depict his memories of the war of Troy? Does he think of his wife, as we recognise the weaving loom of Penelope in the murmuring eighth? In the solemn, plaintive part that follows, we can imagine Penelope feeling lonely, sitting in the womens room with her servants.One of the girls plays the harp, but that does not clear the sombre atmosphere. Then we can imagine seeing the sorceress Circe, who changed Odysseus men into swine. After she gives a simple magic sign something follows that reminds us of the sound of pigs grunting. Then the Odysseus theme resounds: the hero comes to savi his comrades. Assisted by Hermes, he forces Circe to lift the spell. The piece ends the same way as it began, with an animated theme: Odysseus is still the same, undefeated and not to be taken lighty! 07:45

£59.80Alte Kameraden - Carl Teike
It is the greatest tragedy in the life of a young composer if he happens to write his most successful piece at the beginning of his musical career. This holds true for Carl Teike, as the unsurpassed success at the beginning of his musical life was his march "Old Comrades". It is a sparkling piece that may well be labeled to be the German "march of marches". Carl Teike was born on Feb. 05, 1864 in Altdamm. After his parents had moved to Stettin, he had early contacts with military music as a youngster. The enthusiasm for this kind of music never left him throughout his life. He began a musical apprenticeship with City Music Director Bttcher in Wollin and already played in the spa orchestra of Bad Misdroy, which Bttcher conducted. Upon completing his apprenticeship, he enlisted as a volunteer in the band of the (5th Wrttemberg) King Karl Grenadiers No. 123 in Ulm. The musical and military environment there proved to be ideal for the ambitious young musician, who hoped to eventually study band music at the University of Music in Berlin. Above all, his military superior, bandmaster Julius Schreck supported young Teike wherever he could. Unfortunately the time in Ulm took a very unhappy turn, as Schreck's successor was extremely resentful towards Teike, and musical support was replaced by sheer harassment. On account of this, Teike retired from the military towards the end of 1889. Short employments in Ravensburg and Ulm evidently did not suit Teike, who was of northern German descent. This is why he applied for the Royal Police Force in Potsdam. Teike was accepted and entered service in 1895. The royal capital of the Hohenzollerns obviously stirred Teike to write a number of brilliant marches. He even became known abroad as the "musical policeman". Unfortunately he contracted a severe pneumonia while on duty, which eventually forced him to retire from the Royal Police Force in Potsdam. On February 01, 1909 he and his family moved to the prosperous provincial city of Landsberg on the Warthe (which is located east of Berlin in present-day Poland). There, Count Clairon d'Haussonville proved to be an understanding superior who paved the way for modest Carl Teike to continue composing, as his creativity had not suffered from this move. The disease which he had caught in Potsdam evidently was more severe than he was inclined to accept. In spring 1922, his state of health became worse, and in May of that year he passed away. Much too early - as many people felt. Teike's marches constitute an enrichment of the German concert march, as he never composed any street marches. Clear structures, musical ingenuity and a multitude of tone colors distinguish his works and shape them into something really new. It is this type of the march in particular that became the bedrock of the universal appeal of the German march. Even today Teike's marches stand unrivaled for musical quality and content - and they never are aggressive. Toward the end of his tour of duty in Ulm, Teike handed a new march to his superior, which, at the time, did not have a title yet. He in turn told Teike to "put it in a stove and burn it". As we know today, this was a classic misappraisal, as Teike subsequently named his march "Old Comrades" in view of his impending retirement. We do not even need to discuss the acceptance the march has met and still meets all over the world, as "Old Comrades" simply always has been a march of universal appeal. In his new arrangement, Siegfried Rundel did not change the essence of Teike's music, he rather sensitively adapted it to modern musical practice and to the instrumentation of the symphonic band on the basis of his deep respect for the works of Carl Teike.

The Wind Rises - Joe Hisaishi
This beautiful, lyrical melody is so colorful in the film, without having an imposing image. "The Wind Rises" (2013) does not dominate the visual, and perhaps is an ideal form of film music considering this is director Miyazaki's final production. Chamber ensembles with solos and strings are frequently used in the soundtrack, so the sound is mellow and soft. As you listen more and more, you still recognize the tradition of Ghibli music.When I arrange, I try not to visualize the image of a film. I may think of characters and story line but is it important to write music that alone is appealing and fascinating. Trying not to "overstate" the film is not needed here. If you can bring out the most appealing parts of the soundtrack, excess can be forgiven. Of course, I have not changed the musical elements of the original.I asked Mr. Tomoki Ubata (band director at Ina Gakuen Sr. High School) whom I have worked with numerous times to assist with layout. He came up with a heartwarming medley with two main parts; leading boy Jiro's gift for aeronautical design and his romance with the heroine, Natsuko.The following themes are contained in the arrangement:1. Nahoko (A Rainbow) Beginning2. Caproni (An Aeronautical Designer's Dream) C3. A Journey (An Encounter at Karuizawa) H4. The Falcon I5. Prototype 8 N6. A Journey (A Parting) & A Journey (A Dream of Flight) PIt is quite remarkable, looking back on 30 years of Studio Ghibli's achievements.(Kazuhiro Morita)
