£53.95Bolero - David Marlatt
As the title suggests, this piece is Spanish in style. After opening with a short fanfare, the melody is then passed equally between two solo clarinets (alto saxophone parts also provided) with the other voices adding rhythmic chords and countermelodies. Fun and energetic, this is a great piece to add some international color to a concert or special event.

£82.95Couchiching Suite - John Herberman
was written as a commission from the National Music Camp of Canada, which runs each year on the shores of beautiful Lake Couchiching, north of Toronto, Canada. The goal in composing this piece was to give the top students at the camp a challenging and original piece to play. The first movement is a march in 5/4 that derives its pulse from the melodic shapes, rather than set groupings of beats. The middle movement is a slow homophonic song with rich harmonies and thick chordal textures requiring good listening and tuning skills. The third movement is a burner in mixed meters featuring solo alto saxophone and a soaring soli for the French horns. This is a great concert suite to showcase the achievements and abilities of a senior ensemble.

£53.95Aria for Winds - Glen Gillis
is based on Glen Gillis' earlier composition, "Nicole's Aria" for alto saxophone and piano---dedicated to his daughter shortly after she was born. In the Aeolian mode, this piece incorporates some subtle dissonances within a hollow open 5th harmony. Haunting melodic lines combined with colorful percussion writing make this a terrific concert or contest piece.

£79.50A Touch of Christmas: Suite 2
Bring the magic of New York Pops arranger Stan Applebaum into your own concert hall with this fabulous arrangement! The opening Ukranian Bell Carol is given a Spanish flavor (with castanets) before moving into the well-known March of the Toys from "Babes in Toyland." A sensitive and harmonically engaging version of The First Noel features solo oboe (cued in the alto saxophone). Jolly Old Saint Nicholas and Jingle Bells cap this dynamic arrangement as it comes to a rollicking conclusion! Highly recommended!

£45.95Legacy - Ryan Meeboer
is a song of heroic nature and is a great way to introduce polyrhythmic texture to a young band. This piece opens with a high energy feel that can represent a hero. The piece moves into a lyrical section that can be portrayed as the hero's downfall. A new melody is introduced by the alto saxophone solo, which is later countered by the flute and trumpets. The high energy melody returns again, bringing the piece to an exciting conclusion.

£70.50Temple in the Clouds - David Marlatt
This piece is an ethereal and effective work for winds, piano, and percussion. It opens with three solo flutes echoing a call as if it were played on a mountain top. Various soloists are featured throughout, including flute, oboe, clarinet, and alto saxophone. Full sonorous brass section moments contrast the clear, lightly scored woodwind texture. Powerful and transparent. (5:00)"This colorful work will program well as a change-of-pace moment" -

£73.50Sunset Over Blue Water - David Marlatt
is a fresh new scoring of the famous hymn tune "It Is Well with My Soul." The simple melody combined with the powerful, heart-wrenching lyrics, have made this hymn popular around the world. The lyrics are about remaining positive even when faced with great personal loss and sadness. This version is positive throughout and was inspired by a picture taken aboard a cruise ship of a beautiful sunset over the ocean. This work features some solo opportunities in flute, clarinet, horn, alto saxophone, and trumpet. It builds to a strong forte verse before fading away to a quiet peaceful resolution.
