Adventure Overture - Timothy Loest
This three-part overture is extremely easy to put together and is an ideal transition from beginning band literature. Special attention is given to low brass parts, insuring that they are not too difficult. A lush lyrical section provides for some more interesting harmonies, yet is very approachable by bands at all levels. Use this section to work on balance and musicality with your ensemble. A D.C. al Fine completes the framework of this piece.

£159.60Capriccio - Marcel Poot
The Capriccio was composed in 1963. A slow introduction is followed by a lively dotted theme with woodwind and brass, which is quite typical for Poot's style, but which makes the ensemble playing extremely delicate. The melodious second theme with the woodwind, changes into an andantino with a nice and broadly developed melody played by the clarinets and euphoniums. After a brief come-back of the initial theme the composition ends with a sparkling allegro vivo that summarizes all previous themes and motifs.

£131.30Hymns And Dances II - J. Slothouwer
In 1990 Jochem Slothouwer composed Hymns and Cances II. This work for symphonic band and harp (ad libitum) is based on Hymns and Dances I for piano, mixed choir and percussion. The compostition is based on the contrast between hymnlike melodies and dance music episodes. The work, in five connected parts, seems to look for a reconciliation of both melodic and rythmical elements. The initial theme with the horns and the answer of the band form the base of the first part.The second part, charcterized by a vitorous dance rhythm, is dominated by the percussionn and syncopated motifs with the brass. A melody with the euphoniums almost imperceptibly slips into the ensemble and gradually gets to the foreground. The dance and the hymn reach a real climax interrupted by a short and dark intermezzo (part three). The clear sonority of part four, a fiery tarantella with many small byt virtuoso solos, is a new contras. The final adagio reuses the previously developed ideas of part one and ends in sheer ecstasy.

£104.50Variations On A Mighty Fortress - Darren W. Jenkins
A truly powerful setting that is worthy of this famous hymn that uses an impressive set of three variations. It opens with a slow, legato presentation of the melody stated by solo trumpet followed by the first lively variation, driven by a strong rhythmic accompaniment. The second variation features an alto saxophone solo that builds and alternates between woodwind and brass choirs before closing with a majestic fanfare and the full ensemble driving to a jubilant conclusion. Extremely uplifting!

Heres a light and entertaining work for first-year musicians thats the perfect vehicle for teaching and reinforcing playing in 3/4 time.
