£140.80An all American suite - Robert Macray
This suite is based on 4 american folksongs.1. 'Go tell it on the Mountain' - A light swinging negro spiritual telling in many ways: 'Our Lord Jesus Christ is born'.2. 'Sweet Betsy from Pike' - This is the story of the girl who crossed the big prairie with her brother Mike. The setting has a reminiscene of the French 'Musette Waltz' because it was said that Betsy originally came from Paris.3. 'The Fiddler in the Rain' - This is the song from the play 'The Arkansas Traveller' which was very popular in Ohio in the 1850's.4. 'Johnny and Frankie' - This is the combination of 2 songs 'When Johnny comes home' and 'Frankie and Johnny'. The lyrics of the songs have nothing in common, but the two melodies seem to be made to blend perfectly.

£104.50American Variants - Robert E. Foster
This energetic, imaginative work presents the popular patriotic melody of America in an assortment of musical variations. Beginning with a brilliant, very American fanfare, the basic theme follows in a highly rhythmic, multi-metered setting, which leads to several other contrasting presentations, including a lyrical tuba solo and beautiful chorale settings, all which lead to a stirring finale.

£89.99Portrait of an Old Country Town - Grice
Rob Grice's Portrait of an Old Country Town is a programmatic work depicting images of an early American community. The beauty of the countryside, the work involved in taming the great outdoors, and a small town festival celebration are all pictorial elements of the piece. Accessible to bands of modest experience, sounds much harder than it is. An exceptionally nice work!

£140.80An Indoor Overture - Willem Strietman
In 1964 I met the American composer, conductor, pianist and educationist Aaron Copland (1900-1990) who was in The Netherlands during an European concert tour. I keep most pleasant memories of his performances and of our conversations. In memory of that great man I made in 1995 a new version of a small composition that I had written in 1970 for the Silver Jubilee of the Metropole Orchestra (of the Dutch Radio Institution) and that was called 'An Indoor Overture'. This short work is a kind of answer to Copland's 'An Outdoor Overture' (1938) in which also light and serious music are harmoniously mixed.Willem Strietman

An impressive arrangement by Andy Clark of one of Karl L. King's most distinctive marches. This arrangement retains all of the charm and Spanish flavor of the original while it utilizes a reduced instrumentation which makes it sound great with smaller bands. An outstanding choice for concert or contest performances. Very highly recommended!
