£39.95Keep the Faith (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Stubbs, Duncan
The composer writes: This piece originally started as a personal tribute to my late mother. Not long after writing the opening ideas, I was approached to write music to accompany a rendition of the poem, 'We Will Keep the Faith' by Moina Michael for performance as part of the 100th anniversary of the start of World War One. The appropriateness of the music already written, and the sentiment behind both concepts, was a coincidence too good to overlook. Rarely sentimental and always practical, I feel sure my mother would be delighted that the music she originally inspired was being used to portray a much wider universal message of remembrance.

£82.95Rising Dragons (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Smith, Robert W.
Commissioned by the Korean Navy Symphonic Band under the direction of Lt. Commander Joon Hyung Park, Rising Dragons pays tribute to the legacy of Yi Sun Shin and his impact on naval operations throughout the world. Beginning with a commanding fanfare, the authoritative statement gives way to the lone flute representing the solitude and reflection that any great leader must endure. The mechanized sounds of the turtle ships are brought to musical life through melody that rises and falls like the sea. The sea battle is depicted with opposing forces of percussion giving way to a final victorious fanfare. A line from a poem written by Yi Sun Shin inspires the title: "I call to the sea, and the dragons are moved."Duration: 9.15

£164.95FOLK SONGS FOR BAND (Set 2) (Novello Symphonic) - Stanhope, David
Score & Parts. A Leadsman, Landsmen and Dances begins with The Jolly Sailor, a boisterous portrait of the subject. Then comes O Shepherd, O Shepherd, Won't You Come Home? which perhaps presents both austere and idyllic aspects of the countryside. Rufford Park Poachers is a heart-felt tribute to Grainger, who once said, somewhat bitterly, that the true worth of his own music would never be gauged until it was understood to be a pilgrimage to sorrows. The Keel Row is an attempt to depict a spontaneous folk-dance for the musical and the not-so-musical.
