£109.99Rubies (After Thelonious Monk's Ruby, My Dear) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Harbison, John - Martin, Peter Stanley
Composer John Harbison writes: "Rubies is a version of Thelonious Monk's Ruby, My Dear, which he composed while still in his teens. When I was invited by the Seattle Symphony to make a short piece reflecting my first musical passions, my thoughts were of Bach and Monk. Since I had recently made some Bach-like chorale preludes, I chose to make a version of Monk's tune, first in a chamber-musical, contrapuntal manner, then in the grand orchestral style I had always heard lurking there." Duration: 5:30 (Recorded live by the Rutgers Symphony Band - Peter Stanley Martin, guest conductor)

£53.50Rock, River, Tree (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sweeney, Michael
Drawing inspiration from American poet Maya Angelou's inspirational poem On the Pulse of Morning, this unique work for band offers challenges and rewards for young players. Using the imagery of a rock, a river, a tree, Angelou challenges us all to work for unity and peace. The music ranges from an energetic percussive pulse (rock) that utilises plastic buckets played throughout the ensemble, to a flowing chorale theme (river) that's heard near the beginning and again at the end. Throughout, the piece grows and intensifies (tree) as various musical elements are combined and varied. Dramatic music with important cross-curricular opportunities!Duration: 4:10

£53.95Blind Brook Celebration (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Story, Michael
Inspired by the bedroom community to New York City, this vibrant overture musically reflects the juxtaposition of the tranquillity of nature in this quiet suburb with the busyness of modern-day life in the city. Set in ABCA form, the composition opens with a trickling melodic line depicting the beginning of the brook itself building to the energetic main theme. Musically exploring that dichotomy, the work unifies to a chorale section and builds to a frenzied conclusion. Highly recommended for concerts and contest alike!Duration: 3:00

£76.99A Christmas Night (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Jeanbourquin, Marc
Christmas night evokes a multitude of images within every one of us: memories of sharing delicious meals with our family, of magical encounters, of celebrations, carol singing and music. In this work, Marc Jeanbourquin revisits four great Christmas Eve classics. The first chorale, Adeste Fideles, majestically opens this piece before taking the audience on to the famous Joy to the World. Such an arrangement would not be complete without the equally well-known Jingle Bells in a jazz version, before We wish you a Merry Christmas as a fitting conclusion to the piece. With A Christmas Night, you will be able to express in music the traditional Christmastime wishes to your public.Duration: 4.00

£60.50Prelude and Firestorm (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Barrett, Roland
Drawing its title from the term firestorm, this original composition opens with a slow and mysterious chorale in 3/4 time, then yields to relentless waves of firestorms, each one building in intensity, then receding, then rising again in a successive series of escalating passages, finally reaching a powerful and emphatic conclusion. Intense!Duration: 3:45

£84.99Heart in Motion (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Yagisawa, Satoshi
Heart in Motion compares the development of an ensemble to a tree, which-with careful nurturing-grows branches, twigs, leaves and fruit. As a fertiliser, you need to add an extra helping of positive attitude, enthusiasm and passion to it. Inspired by these images and concepts, Satoshi Yagisawa has composed Heart in Motion which, with a magnificent fanfare followed by a warm-sounding chorale, certainly lives up to its name.Duration: 3:15

£164.99Spirit of Endeavour (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sparke, Philip
Spirit of Endeavour is a virtuosic piece of music with a positive musical message. It tells the story of a wind band embracing hard work, friendship, musical excellence, love, marriage and birth, as well as the sad loss of cherished members. Composer Philip Sparke decided to salute the history of the Canadian concert band 'Harmonie de Charlesbourg' with a work that falls into two contrasted sections. One Vision deals with forming the band and the subsequent united desire to create an ensemble espousing the idea of musical perfection. The Pursuit of Excellence salutes the 20 years of hard work of the wind band. This concert work ends with a chorale of the full band, symbolising the fulfilment of a united dream!Duration: 9:15
