£124.95Sinfonietta (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob
Sinfonietta is a challenging, extended work for symphonic wind band in three movements. The first two, Dance with the Devil and A Glimpse of Paradise are a transition from dark to light; Dance with the Devil is aggressive and occasionally macabre whereas A Glimpse of Paradise is serene. The final movement, Reyes Magos, is the joyous fiesta of the Three Kings. Sinfonietta is technically and expressively demanding but is written within the realms of tonal language.

£84.99Mixed Bag Wind Band Set (Score & Parts)
Mixed Bag' stands midway between a collection and a hotchpotch. It is a colourful compilation of four completely different pieces, each with its own specific character. The first part is called 'Tanguillo' : as its name suggests, this Spanish dance is related to the Tango. In the next part, 'Maybe next time ....' a repeated bass line (Passacaglia) can be heard, first solo, but thereafter gradually the other instruments join in. The third part forms a huge contrast - did the former part have a Baroque atmosphere, 'Rock Hard' seems to have come directly from the Rock 'n Roll era, reminding us of stars such as Bill Haley and Elvis Presley. The finale is a cheerful, inciting movement called 'Gypsy Dance'. 07:30

SIROCCO (Concert Band) - Graham, Peter
A Sirocco is a wind that originates in the Sahara and sweeps across the Mediterranean through North Africa to Southern Europe. Taking this route as his inspiration, Peter Graham has fashioned a tour-de-force for band that features three Mediterranean folk songs. Two of the three movements are well known in their respective countries. Firstly, the fast and furious Tarantella is commonly heard as part of traditional Italian wedding celebrations whilst the Romanza can justifiably lay claim as one of Spain's most enduring melodies, synonymous with the Spanish guitar. The final movement has its roots in traditional Greek dance music, being a mixture of slow and fast versions of the hasapiko. The best-known example of the form is the famous Zorba's Dance, and in the same manner the Sirtakis sedate opening bars soon give way to a frenzy of activity as the entire ensemble whip up their own musical storm

£74.95Coloured Glass (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob
In this cheerful, minimalist piece, the composer seeks to capture the effects of light shining, refracting, and reflecting through glass of various colours and densities. While adopting familiar minimalist features - repetition, consonant harmony, and a steady pulse - the composer is mindful of the inherent risk in the style of allowing ideas to linger for too long. To avoid this, the patterns and colours shift subtly, creating a sense of gentle transition alongside an impression of dance and energy. Most of the woodwind instruments take on fluid semiquaver movement at some point, though the music itself is not technically demanding.Duration: 3.45

£132.00Hobbits (from Symphony No.1: The Lord of the Rings) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Meij, Johan
Johan de Meij's first symphony The Lord of the Rings is based on the trilogy of that name by J.R.R. Tolkien. This book has fascinated many millions of readers since its publication in 1955. The symphony consists of five separate movements, each illustrating a personage or an important episode from the book. The fifth movement expresses the carefree and optimistic character of the Hobbits in a happy folk dance; the hymn that follows emanates the determination and noblesse of the hobbit folk. The symphony does not end on an exuberant note, but is concluded peacefully and resigned, in keeping with the symbolic mood of the last chapter, The Grey Havens, in which Frodo and Gandalf sail away in a white ship and disappear slowly beyond the horizon.

£125.00Tutued Toucan Can-Can (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Svanoe, Erika
The majestic and noble toucan dons its tutu and prepares for its grand entrance. What will the toucan ballet entail? Nimble hops on delicate legs? Short but graceful flights across the stage? Rousing kicks? Dramatic splits? Perhaps the grand movement of its large, brightly coloured beak would be the most effective use of its greatest asset. The toucan, inspired by other great birds of ballet, enters the stage, and begins to dance.Duration: 5.30
