£90.30Unter Der Admirals Flagge - J. Fucik
Julius Fucik (Prague 1872 - Leitmeritz 1916) is rightly considered as the 'Czech March King'. This pupil of Antonin Dvorak was a military bandmaster in the Imperial and Royal Army of the Austrian-Hungarian Danube Monarchy. His marches 'Florentiner Marsch' and 'Entry of the Gladiators' became world famous, but we should not forget neither his splendid overtures (such as 'Marinarella') nor his famous bassoon solo 'Der alte Brummbr' (The Old Grumbler). The magnificent concert march 'Under the Admiral's Flag' Opus 82 was written for the official launching ceremony of the cruiser 'Viribus unitis' of the Austrian-Hungarian Navy. It was the second march by Fucik to be published, the first being 'Sarajevo'.

£61.00Clarinera Major - Juan Vicente Mas Quiles
The famous Spanish arranger, composer and conductor Juan Vicente Mas Quiles (Lliria, 1925) has laways had very close connections with the interantionally reknown symphonic band 'Banda Primitiva' (El Clarin) of his native town in the neighbourhood of Valencia. He started in the band as a young musician, he has often been a member of the council, he has constantly been guest-conductor and also very often acting-conductor and he still is the first musical advisor of this elite band. Each year the members of the society (the clarineros and clarineras) elect the 'Clarinera Mayor', the young lady presiding the group of PR ladies, dressed in national costume. It was to honour Seorita Belinda Verdeguer Garcia, Clarinera Mayor 1994-95, that Mas Quiles wrote this festive and elegant concert pasodoble.

£186.20Suite No.1 - Oliver Waespi
The "Suite for Wind Orchestra" has three parts. The introductory "Symphonic Movement" is based on two opposite musical ideas. The first is chromatic, whereas the second is rather diatonically harmonized. The "Nocturne" or second part is contrasting with the preceding part and is written in the minor key. The quiet atmosphere at the end of the "Nocturne" is abruptly interrupted by the "Toccata". This part, a "Vivace", leading into a "Presto" at the end, has a wild, passionate character.

£61.00Highschool Dixie - John Philip Sousa
In 1890 'The High School Cadets', a popular drill team attached to the very first high school in Washington D.C., asked John Philip Sousa to write a march for the group. They requested a 'better' march than the one Sousa had written for their rivals 'The National Fencibles'. Indeed, The High School Cadets became one of the most popular of Sousa's 136 marches. Pi Scheffer wrote this fine arrangement with Dixieland combo, which was made extremely popular by the recording made by the famous Dutch Swing College Band.

£186.20Patchwork - Manfred Schneider
This trumpet concert is, as its title clearly indicates, a mixture of different styles. The martial first movement reminding us slightly of Haydn's trumpet concerto is followed by a lyrical movement illustrating the brilliance of the instrument. The final movement is a rhythmical allegro that allows the soloist to demonstrate his technical skills. Here is a fine piece to put the spotlight on your best trumpeter.

The march 'Vale de Cambra' was commissioned on the occasion of the centenary celebration of the band of Vale de Cambra (Portugal). Conducted by the composer, was premiered in October 2011, in Vale de Cambra, with about hundred musicians. It begins with a fanfare, rhythmical, thence to the first section, which traditionally develops. With a grand final, as is fitting for a celebration as important as a centenarian, the march creates either in the audience and in the musicians, and during all its duration, an effect of power and excitement to which no one stays indifferent.
