£64.50The Dark Knight, Selections from (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Howard & Zimmer - Wagner, Douglas E.
Douglas Wagner has captured all the excitement and energy of Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard's score to The Dark Knight, the long-awaited sequel to Batman Begins. The piece opens with gothic sonorities that give way to themes associated with the complex character of district attorney Harvey Dent. In an abrupt change of mood, the chase is on as The Joker continues his well-orchestrated spree of mass mayhem and murder. Rounding out the arrangement, Batman himself leaves his mark as Gotham City's silent sentinel. Solidly scored at the young band level, the medley includes: Harvey Two-Face, Introduce a Little Anarchy and A Dark Knight. Just like the film, this is one arrangement not to miss! Duration: 3.00

£115.00Duet from Don Carlo (Trombone or Euphonium Duet with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Verdi, Giuseppe - De Meij, Johan
Don Carlo was originally written (title Don Carlos) as a French five-actor for the 1867 world exhibition in Paris. Later, Verdi transformed this improant grand opera into a four-acter in Italian. With its many leitmotifs, Don Carlo was 'too Wagnerian' according to French critics, although Verdi hardly knew the music by his German colleage. For the record, the composer was not happy either with the 'lifeless and cold' performance in Paris, and the drama, concerning Charles V, Philip II and crown price Don Carlo, found its way to La Scala only twenty years later. This duet, arranged by Johan de Meij, originates from the second act. While monks pray for the soul of Emperor Charles V, his grandson Don Carlo takes the stage, tormented by the fact that the woman he loves is now married to his father. Carlo's friend Rodrigo, the Margquis of Posa, has just returned from Flanders. He asks crown prince Carlo to help him ease the oppression and suffering of the Flemish people. Carlo reveals his secret: he is in love with his stepmother. Rodrigo advises him to leave Spain and to go to Flanders. The two men vow to be friends forever in the duet Dio, che nell' alma infondere (God, who wishes to instil love and hope in our souls). Duration: 4.00

£173.00Edgar (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Puccini, Giacomo - De Meij, Johan
Edgar was Giacomo Puccini's second opera but despite numerous changes and adaptations, it was never able to match the success enjoyed by his first opera Le Villi. Puccini himself was never completely satisfied with the opera either. It was not until the 1970's, after the first release of a recording of the work, that Edgar gained in popularity and recognition. Johan de Meij has created this fabulous concert band arrangement of this much under-performed work. Duration: 13.30

£159.99The Idol of the Flies (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Cesarini, Franco
The book The Idol of the Flies by Jane Rice (1913-2005) is a classic of horror literature. It is the story of a child who, in an incredible series of cruel actions, persecutes those around him. The composer has chosen not to reproduce the contents of the tale with music, but to create its archaic and mysterious atmosphere. Like many other horror classics, the setting, and the atmosphere of the story are more important than the contents of the tale itself. Get your audience quaking in their boots with this horrific tale!Duration: 9:15

£154.99Lake of the Moon (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Houben, Kevin
The travels of the Aztec people as they headed south through North America looking for a new home, acted as the inspiration for Lake of the Moon. The composition contains small fragments of Oriental music and South American rhythms and occasionally, Russian Cossacks seem to raise their heads. The journey from North to South is not without danger, which is represented by threatening sounds within the music. In the Adagio divoto the composer takes us along to the Texcoco Lake, which the Aztecs called the lake of the moon. Bring a little bit of South American history to your concert with Lake of the Moon.Duration: 11:00

£111.00Dance of the Amazon (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Lyadov, Anatoly - De Meij, Johan
The Russian composer Anatoly Lyadov was one of Rimski-Korsakov's talented students and was also a respected conductor. Lyadov's compositions are relatively few, as he did not complete many of his works. One of the pieces he did complete was called Dance of the Amazon, which was written for the dancer Ida Rubinstein. Johan de Meij's arrangement makes this charming work, based on two Greek folk melodies, accessible to concert bands for the first time ever! Duration: 3.30

£72.00North Bay Vistas (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Smith, Robert W.
Composer Robert W. Smith's journey to the San Francisco Bay Area inspired this musical panorama. Beginning with an intriguing fanfare statement representing the unforgettable skyline of San Francisco and the unique images of the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, our journey begins north over the waters of the bay. Sailing across the water, we are treated to magnificent vistas including both the city and the surrounding mountains. An early morning sunrise looking down on the vineyards of Sonoma was the inspiration for the center of the piece. The early morning mist combined with light and shadow creates a very peaceful scene that is not soon forgotten. The piece concludes with the return to the city providing a new perspective of this truly unique American landscape.Duration: 6.15
