£129.99Primavera - Beautiful Mountain Winds - Satoshi Yagisawa
Primavera was commissioned for the 40th Anniversary of Kofu Community Band and premiered in spring of 2008. The commissioning request was that the work would reflect both the beautiful nature of Yamanashi Prefecture and bonds the band shared through four decades of history.I always visit rehearsals and meet band members when accepting a commission so that the piece will be relevant and meaningful to the band. When I visited Kofu Community Band they were rehearsing one of my works, Hymn to the Sun - With the Beat of Mother Earth, and the members played with such emotion from bottom of their hearts that I was deeply moved. I shared a story of the work's inspiration, and some started to cry. I was impressed with how sincere and bright those performers in Kofu Community Band were. Mr. Fujio Ando, associate leader of the band, with a big smile told me that he wished their new work would be widely enjoyed and appreciated by many music lovers.(Satoshi Yagisawa)

Celtic Dragon Fantasy - Kirby
A Scottish showpiece for every section of your band! A catchy little trumpet melody is tossed all around the band, accompanied by bustling woodwinds, the sounds of bagpipes, and wild drumming! This happy parade is momentarily interrupted by a bittersweet tune, featuring several band soloists. But the rudimental drums bring everyone back for a big Highland Finale! Hoots Mon!

Music Shall Live - James Curnow
erfect for a combined Choral/Band concert as an opener, closer or anywhere in between. This medley of familiar tunes is tied together by the recurring concept that MUSIC SHALL LIVE. A swingin' WADE IN THE WATER, a soulful NOBODY KNOWS THE TROUBLE I'VE SEEN, and an inspiring BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC make it a crowd pleaser. The unison choral part makes sure the chorus can come through loud and clear and the performance can be prepared without a great deal of combined rehearsal time. Big, bold and powerful! (String parts and Beginning Band (simplified) parts are also available for large, All-City Band, Orchestra and Chorus performances)

£84.99Funk Attack - Otto M. Schwarz
Otto M. Schwarz is endeavoring to contribute new ideas to concert band literature. He has contributed in the field of multimedia (Asteroid), and with his many compositions in symphonic/modern arrangement (Jazz Waltz No 1, Fire and Ice or Band Fever). His new composition Funk Attack is, as the name suggests, a piece in funk style. Otto M. Schwarz first gained his experience in his style in the 8o?s, transcribing numbers by famos Amerarican bands including "Earth, Wind and Fire", "Tower of Power"", and the British slap idol "Mark King" (Level 42). Funk attack is atypical of "the concert band scene" and requires absolute precision in phrasing and rhythm. Without the support of agreat percussion groove, the orchestra plays an interlocked theme in the central section in style of recent American Big Bands. Otto M. Schwarz dedicated this work to "Alexander Veit and Symphonic Winds".
