£78.99The Trumpeter of Krakow - Robert Longfield
"The Trumpeter of Krakow" is a colorful programmatic piece which depicts the ancient legend of a trumpeter who saved Krakow from the Tartar invasion of 1241 by sounding a warning and, in doing so, sacrificed his own life. The music includes the "Hejnal," an authentic Polish hymn which is played today in Krakow on every hour in memory of the ancient trumpeter.

The Caravan Club - Karl L. King
The great Karl King wrote many wonderful marches, and "The Caravan Club" is one of his most interesting and unusual works. Heavy and ponderous at times, light and frisky at others, this march was used often in the circus to accompany tiger acts. An ominous introduction leads to a lumbering first strain, followed by a delightful contrasting, almost ragtime-like second strain. The trio features a wonderful melody with euphonium countermelody, in the style made so famous by King. The weighty breakstrain returns to a minor key feel, and then concludes with an embellished version of the trio. One of the march "King's" very best! Immense!

£65.99Two Bagatelles - Alfred Reed
Alfred Reed's "Two Bagatelles" was first published as a trombone quartet, then enlarged to a brass choir and finally to a full concert band setting. Andy Clark has taken it back to its beginnings and adapted it for the Barnhouse Build-A-Band Series, so that students in very small bands will get a chance to perform music by this master composer. Sounds great if the four basic parts are covered among the instruments present.

Three Evocations - Hans Aerts
This three-movement work is a suite in which the theme material is connected above and beyond the many parts. It is perfectly suited as a concert work, but also as a contest piece. The three movements vary in style, so that your band can display a mixture of qualities. For bands that have any missing instruments many doublings have been provided.

Weather Report - Shin'ya Takahashi
Weather Report was commissioned by Marunouchi Junior High School in Nagano in 2010 and premiered at the Nagano State Band Contest.One of my new thoughts for composition has been to ask students for titles, images and ideas. For this commission I collected many interesting concepts, and quite a few had to do with weather. So, I constructed the piece based on weather news and report. After the main weather news presentation, the meteorologist presents the daily weather forecast:"The morning will be clear and beautiful becoming cloudy at noon and eventually shower later. Rain intensity will increase turning into a thunderstorm. Towards the evening, rain and storm will leave, and there will be a beautiful sunset. That's the weather for today."(Shin'ya Takahashi)

£67.95Aunt Rhodie's Diet - Joseph Compello
Aunt Rhodie's Diet is a sequel to the incredibly popular Aunt Rhodie's Appetite. Both arrangements are novel settings in which a beginning band can perform the standard folk songs found in the first few pages of most band methods. Because they are so easy to play, these arrangements by themselves would not make much of a concert, even for a beginning group. However, when used as incidental music to the story, the songs become sufficiently interesting to the audience, without taxing the capabilities of students who have only been playing for about 10 to 12 weeks.

Gryphon - Tyler Arcari
New composer Tyler Arcari depicts the mythical Gryphon in this delightful piece. You will hear the contrasting lighter-than-air sounds of a soaring eagle followed by the more dark and aggressive sounds of the lion. This is a fresh new piece from a fresh new composer who we are very excited to be adding to the Carl Fischer Music catalog. Tyler's different approach to composition is refreshing, and his scoring, melodic vision and harmonic choices are so wonderful. We expect great things from this young man in the years to come. Alert your festival music list committee about this piece and the name Tyler Arcari!

The Twelfth Street Rag - Euday Louis Bowman
A classic old popular song is given the big band treatment by master arranger Jerry Nowak. There are thick lush Jazz harmonies and a wealth of big band style instrumental colors, but it works so well with the modern concert band. This is a perfect change up piece during a concert that will have the audience tapping their toes.

Interplay - Bill Calhoun
As the title implies, this dynamic new piece from Bill Calhoun is full of interplay between sections of the band, colors of sound, harmonic progressions and even contrasting styles. This piece has a little bit of everything: a fanfare opening, a bold brass melody, lush woodwinds and so much more. You will love the slow, beautiful middle section that will stretch the musicianship of your young band. This piece will be the highlight of your next concert or festival performance.
