£52.70Zaporozsky
The traditional Ukrainian marching song Zaporozsky brings us in a typical Eastern European atmosphere and spontaneously calls nostalgic feelings up. John Smits managed to arrange this fine theme in a most original way with a fine trumpet solo part both in the introduction and the finale. The woodblock almost continuously marks the beat of galopping cavalrymen riding in the Steppes.

£61.00Anchors Aweigh (in Swing) - C. Zimmermann
Charles Zimmerman (1862-1916) was 'bandmaster' at the U.S. Naval Academy during thirty years. He wrote his famous march Anchors aweigh at the request of the Academy's Senior Class in 1907. They asked him for a stirring inspiring march that could also be used as 'war song' for their (American) football team and ... that could also maybe remain popular for some time. This turned out to become true. Pi Scheffer's splendid swinging arrangement combining a Dixieland combo and symphonic band was a big success when recorded by the Marine Band of the Royal Dutch Navy and the Dutch Swing College Band.

£61.00Caro Mio Ben - T. Giordano
Here we have one of the most famous 'Arie antiche' (ancient aria's) from the 18th century, written in the style of Handel. For many years it has been attributed to Giuseppe Giordani, opera and sacred music composer of the Neapolitan school. However, recent investigations clearly established that this song had actually been composed by his son Tommaso (1733-1806). This delicate wind band arrangement by Willy Hautvast can also be performed with a vocal soloist or a mixed choir.

£61.00Ich Weiss ein Httlein
This song has three stanzas and describes the modest though grateful family life of the infant Jesus with his parents Mary and Joseph. The choral melody is four-part and can be performed harmoniously by a quartet. The score has however been arranged for large orchestra. So, it is possible to realize the most varied sound combinations between woodwind and brass groups, even without singing. All percussion instruments can be used 'ad libitum'. The text can be sung as four-part choir singing or by one solo voice with accompaniment of winds. A simple piano score has been added for singing rehearsals or small scale performances.

£112.90Ave Musica - Feike van Tuinen
Ave Musica is a musical impression about the fusion of two different bands. The charactaristics from the past; the chorals (Grosser Gott, wir loben dich) and the marching are the ingredients for the first part. The middle part is based on the medieval song Farewell, Dear Love van Robert Jones. The last part is merry and cheerfull and radiates positivism as a salute, an ave, to the new band.
