This timeless march succeeds equally well as a processional or as a concert march. Development of the legato reeds and low brass is punctuated by powerful and brilliant brass tonalities. The combination of these attributes with an array of tone colors assures perpetual recognition as an exceptional march. (2:59)

£62.95London Bridge
London Bridge was originally written for brass quintet and later scored for concert band. Below is the composer recalling the quintet version's premiere. London Bridge was designed to appeal to children, but also to the child remaining in the rest of us. It kind of developed asit went along and ended up where it is today if that makes any sense at all. A few days after the first draft was finished I took it to a clinic for high school band members at one of theAnchorage schools. The clinic was put on by the Canadian Brass who were in Anchorage on a concert tour. They sight read it at the clinic. I even asked them to autograph the parts. They did. I did not have the nerve to ask them what they thought about it, and they offered meno opinion. That may have been good. This is a terrific novelty piece that shows off the whole band, quotes famous pieces and allows the students to really have fun.

£79.50Gravity Wave - Brian Balmages
This dynamic and intense work describes a phenomenon in which clouds follow the same pattern as waves in the ocean. After an introspective opening, the music grows in intensity with long sustained chords pushing through intense rhythmic movement. Eventually, woodwinds become the focus of the work in a subdued section before undulating percussion begin the final powerful drive. Woodwinds join in a flurry of activity while brass players sustain epic chords once more, until a whirlwind of notes converge into one chaotic statement, punctuated by dissonant chords in the brass. The final sequence will leave the audience gasping. Intense!

£62.95Gridiron Centennial - John R. Bourgeois / arr. Thomas Knox
This is a very fresh march from the former director of the United States Marine Band. It is more of a concert march than a street march and makes wonderful use of the many voices of the band, from a delightful flute/piccolo melody to a lush low brass statement in which only the brass voices are heard, without constant pulse of percussion. In fact, the percussion parts are particularly wonderful in that they enhance the musical lines of the overall work rather than merely keeping time in typical march fashion. This is a terrific march for any band.

£46.95Grace Valley Overture - Steve Hodges
This energetic overture opens strongly with the low brass presenting a melodic arpeggio motive that recurs throughout the A section of the piece. The B section provides an excellent contrast with an expressive presentation by the woodwinds leading to a sensitive chorale setting. With shifting minor and major modes, the section builds with the brass before ending in a tranquil manner. A repeat of the opening section leads to a dynamic coda, bringing the piece to an exciting conclusion. "This is well written educational material that plays at the more technical end of this grade level." -
