£186.20Concerto for Alto Saxophone and Band - Ronald Binge
Ronald Binge was born on 15 July 1910 at Derby, England. He studied harmony and counterpoint on his own and tried his hand at arranging and composing during the many years he worked as a pianist and musician in movie theatres. In 1934 he met the conductor of Italian descent Annunzio Paolo Mantovani (1905-1980) and started writing numerous arrangements for the symphony orchestra of this very popular conductor. In fact, Binge is the inventor of the famous 'Mantovani Sound' (with echo effects by the strings) which charmed and pleased millions of music lovers and television spectators all over Europe in the fifties and sixties. In 1952 he scored a hit with ' Elisabethan Serenade'. Binge also wrote classical music and even a series of wind band compositions such as the most popular 'Cornet Carillon'. Ronald Binge died on 6 September 1979 at Ringwood. He dedicated his Concerto for Alto Saxophone (1956) to the famous American saxophone virtuoso Sigurd Rascher (1907-2001), the pioneer of the classical saxophone. At the request of the Dutch wind band publisher Pieter Jan Molenaar, Binge wrote a version for symphonic band. Unfortunately both the editor and the composer died some time later in 1979 and could not attend the premiere of this version by the Dutch Royal Marine Band conducted by Jaap Koops and with Johan Perik as soloist. The concerto consists of three parts. In the dynamic and quick 'Allegro Spirituoso' one can hear the melody alternately with the soloist and the accompanying band. The second part is more lyrical, though passionate as well and it is better known as it is often performed on itself under its title 'Romance'. The final part 'Rondo Allegro Giocoso' is written in rondo form as its title indicates and it allows the soloist to demonstrate his virtuosity in a very lively dialogue with he band.

£116.40Three Pictures for Band - Oliver Waespi
This composition consists of three sound pictures. When writing this work Oliver Waespi did not have any concrete image such as a scenery or a specific form in mind, but rather some typical visual movements. Hence the successive titles of the different parts: Procession, Dialogue and Waves. Numerous associations mutually link those parts as far as motifs and harmony are concerned. The motif of the ascending and descending fourth plays an important role in many a theme. There are many fourth chords by means of which Waespi tries to put a harmonic and unifying stamp on the compostition as a whole. Moreover there are similar or identical, though varied, motifs in the successive parts.The first part, Cortge (Procession), describes the dignified majestic procession by means of simple precise rhythms. At first the music is scarcely audible, as if coming from a distance; it gradually comes nearer until it reaches its climax in large chords, before fading away again. At each quarter note one could imagine a step. The second part, Dialogue, consists of broad outlines of dialogues between the different orchestral groups. Some instruments are asking questions, others are giving answers. After a rather sad passage, the music turns into a climax followed by a second passage that brings comfort and leads to a quiet ending. In the third part, there is a sudden movement coming up in the shape of waves. The principle of the wave, successively swelling and decreasing, dominates the entire musical structure of this part, even in the separate motifs.As far as the instrumentation is concerned there are the following notes: in the brass band version Oliver Waespi has a definite (orchestral) brass band strength in mind. If some parts (e.g. euphonium and flugelhorn) are played by several musicians, the conductor should feel free either to double or to thin those parts, providing the musical contents are not damaged. The same goes for the fanfare band in which the conductor can feel even more free as to the band's orchestral strenght. Anyway, a convincing overall sound is determining and that is to be realised by any kind of wind band.
