£199.99Dance of the Seven Veils from Salome - Richard Strauss
Oscar Wilde, author of Salome, described the scene simply as "Salome dances seven veils' dance." Though the goal is seduction of her stepfather King Herod, Salome's actions aren't overtly erotic, at least initially. A manic introduction in the score is halted by the dancer, who begins again with a languid, deliberate act of attrition, as the orchestra presents heavily ornamented long tones, interspersed with waltzes and teasing melismas. Salome's tempo gradually increases as she sheds her veils in a final frenzy, then collapses as though in exhaustion. After a moment's pause, she rises again to throw herself at Herod's feet in triumph.An arrangement of Salome was commissioned by Tsuman Junior High School Wind Orchestra for use at the All Japan Band Competition. That version was two thirds of this work; the remaining third was too technical for use at that time. This full version was completed for a recording by the Ground Self Defense Force Central Band for the Brain Company/Bravo Music CD "New Arrangement Collections Vol. 8."(Kazuhiro Morita)

£129.99And Then the Ocean Glows - Johann Strauss
And Then the Ocean Glows was commissioned by Niihama Grade School and its director, Mr. Shinichi Tagawa and completed in April of 2002. Mr. Tagawa and I titled the piece together, drawing from sectional themes of "Shining Morning Ocean", "Wind Stormy Ocean" and "Large Mother Ocean." Before I began composing the piece, I visited Niihama's rehearsal and met the band's inspired young students. The work's theme and melodies are enjoyable and compelling for musicians; I would be delighted for bands to experience this fresh composition.Niihama Grade School Band performed this work for the All Japan Band Contest in 2002 and advanced to divisional level to receive a gold prize. The band also appeared in the TBS Children's Music Contest and received a first prize. (Satoshi Yagisawa)

£49.95Tales Of The Vienna Woods (Waltz) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Brand, Geoffrey
Most of Johann Strauss' 'Master' Waltzes were written during the 1860's, including the "Blue Danube", "Morning Papers" and "Wine, Woman and Song", and this one is no exception. Like his father, Strauss toured virtually the whole of Europe with his orchestra, being acclaimed as Austria's King of the Waltz, and visiting the USA in 1876 to celebrate the centenary of Independence. This arrangement by Brand, Geoffrey simplifies the original version slightly but retains all the colour and flair of a sparkling bygone era.

£49.95Emperor Waltz (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Johnson, Stuart
Johann Strauss (the younger) was only six when he wrote his first waltz and it was obvious at an early stage that he would rival and outshine his father. His waltzes were meant for dancing - the opening bar is for partners to bow by way of introduction to each other - and when the "Emporor Waltz" was written in 1888, Strauss was director of the Imperial Court Balls in Vienna.
