£65.99A New Dawn - Lisa Galvin
Lyrical music is important for even the very youngest of musicians, and Lisa Galvin's "A New Dawn" offers a wonderful opportunity to develop the skills of smooth and lyrical playing.

This fresh approach to a beginning band ballad will be the perfect contrasting piece for your concert presentation. Skillful scoring and beautiful melodies make this a great choice.

£54.99Concerto for Triangle - Mike Hannickel
This easy-to-prepare beginning band comedy piece will have the audience rolling in the aisles. Feature that popular principal, custodian, secretary or any other staff or community member who has a little bit of comedian in them as the "Triangle soloist." One interruption after another prevents the "soloist" from actually playing the Triangle until the very end of the piece where, with a band member's assistance, the soloist finally gets to play the Triangle one single time. Everyone will love it! Side-splitting!

£127.30Eventyr-Suite - Øystein Sjøvaag Heimdal
Fairytale-Suite is an original work for beginning band. The name of the movements are taken from well-known themes from Norwegian fairytales. The music may not tell a story itselv, but it may be a good base for an exciting fairytale on a concert? This piece gives challenging parts to every player and it's a good choice to showcase the entire band. To the conductor: It's several doublings of the voices. This makes it possible to omit certain instruments or parts. The Drum Set part may be split and played by several players.
