£54.99Step Aside Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
Excuse me, may I play along? Could you step aside, please? 'Step Aside' is a pleasant competition both between two tempi and among the different parts. After a short, slow introduction it is the drummer who, without asking the questions above, sets the high pace. As soon as this rapid movement has been established, 'part 1' takes the lead, but the other parts obviously don't want to miss a thing and follow in rapid succession. At the end of the composition the various parts 'compete' in order to be able to play solo for a while, but soon others join in again, asking 'Excuse me, may I play along?' 02:15

£60.50Stormy Seas - James Swearingen
Built in 1873, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse is the tallest tower on the Oregon Coast, soaring 93 feet in the air. While the lighthouse has never been damaged, it has witnessed many severe storms. Stormy Seas is a musical depiction of one such storm. Alternating with brief periods of calm, the composition could easily be described as fast, furious and exhilarating. Well-written wind parts coupled with a strong contribution by the percussion section makes this work the perfect choice for your band's favorite piece for years to come. Audiences will be captivated by the sounds of lightning and thunder at the very end!

Concertante Ouverture - Jef Maes
This fantastic overture of the Belgian composer Jef Maes formed the end work of Georges Moreau, in the same class as Jan Van der Roost. Virtuoso passages alternate with rich instrumented melodic fragments and thereby create a wide symphonic sound image. A stylish opening work for your concert, but also ideal for coming straight to the point in competitions.

£54.99Who's next? - David Well
Who begins? Who follows? In 'Who's next?' the orchestra is divided up into two parts a number of times. The division seems random, but on close scrutiny it becomes clear at the end that sides are clearly taken, also in playing the melody, first one section and then .... who'll be next? 'Who's next?' is solid Rock, no nonsense, going straight ahead.

£152.99Morning Song - Philip Sparke
Morning Song features the horn quartet mostly in a soloistic role - indeed there is an accompanied cadenza towards the end of the piece - but there are moments where the horns assume their conventional concert band role as harmonic support or playing the counter melody. This expressive composition shows all the versatility of the horn quartet and gives them the chance to be in the spotlight.

Cowbell Lullaby - Fenske
Moos...cowbells...yodels...alphorns... "Cowbell Lullaby" is an imaginative piece which transports you to Switzerland, joining cows at the end of their day's journey high in the Alps. The herd comes to life in the opening measures, lowing with excitement until the cows are calmed by a delicate lullaby. Dance music of the town band momentarily stirs them before the lullaby once again calls them to bed. Your developing players, and the audience as well, will "udderly" enjoy hanging out with the dairy farmer and his Alpine herd. Mooooo!
