£85.50The Bells of Christmas - Robert Longfield
An insipiring composition which features narration based on the story of how Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote the famous carol," I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day". The hand bell choir part (3 octaves) is totally optional, but gives the director a method of involving local hand bell choirs in the holiday concert. The narration is essential to the performance and also provides an opportunity to involve a local dignitary into the performance. Very distinctive and unique.

£71.50America Exultant - Henry Fillmore
Sousa said, "A march should make a man with a wooden leg step out," and Henry Fillmore's "America Exultant" is exactly the kind of march he had in mind! Trombones are featured throughout, along with a trumpet-and-drum motif and a woodwind obbligato. The very unique trio is based on "America." Not difficult, but highly impressive!

£78.99Broad Stripes and Bright Stars - Robert Longfield
A dramatic and inspiring patriotic composition which contains fresh musical treatments of "Yankee Doodle", "Johnny Has Gone For A Soldier", "America" and a full symphonic treatment of "The Star-Spangled Banner". A great concert opener or closer, and is suitable for any patriotic or civic occasion. ("The Star-Spangled Banner" can be played alone, with or without audience participation.) Challenging, but amazingly playable for a piece that sounds so spectacular and impressive! All sections of the band get several chances to shine and it's a full-blown extravaganza that is perfect for a zillion programming situations. Very impressive!

£71.50Ode and Jubilation - Gerald Sebesky
As the title implies, there is a dichotomy of spirit within the contrasting sections. But, there is also a mutual thematic development which makes this composition unique. After beginning with a lyrical introduction in which the trumpet invokes an expressive solo passage, the work then progresses with an energetic rhythmic pattern which offers and leads to a joyful spirit of celebration. A recapitulation of the original theme forms a variation to the end. This distinctive composition was selected by the Mid-Atlantic Arts Foundation to receive the NJSCA Fellowship award. Very nice!

£74.99Fanfare and Furiosity - David Shaffer
Not hard, but very impressive, this David Shaffer original is perfect concert or contest material for mid-level bands. It starts with a stately fanfare introduction which leads directly into the "furious" section. This section features a fast tempo where several playable yet independent melody lines are intertwined to create a very busy yet pleasing musical landscape. An adagio section follows before a reprise of the "furious" section leads to a big finish. A rewarding work that is a welcome addition to any performance!

£78.99Free World - Karl L. King
Karl L. King was the absolute master of writing marches that are very playable, but sound big and strong.

Skillfully edited and articulated to the style of the period, it's a perfect choice for any contest or concert performance. Our highest recommendation!

£83.50Fanfare for Freedom - Lloyd
An impressive and demanding composition for mature bands by a talented Australian composer and military band conductor. Requires good players in all sections, but it is well worth the effort. The inspiring slow section includes solos for oboe, clarinet, horn, trumpet & euphonium as well as some challenging parts for the mallet percussion players. Every section of the band has plenty to keep them challenged and involved. Will be a superlative opener for any concert!
