Mayan Sports Festival - James L. Hosay
This challenging and uniquely rewarding composition will be of special interest to the director who seeks "something different". The pre-Columbian Mayan civilization is in many ways a great mystery to modern scholars. Their amazingly advanced mastery of mathematics, geometry and astronomy was remarkable indeed. But one of the most interesting aspects of ancient Mayan culture was an event referred to as "The Ball Game." This is the mysterious and exotic setting for James L. Hosay's MAYAN SPORTS FESTIVAL (Fantasy Suite).The superbly colorful orchestration and dynamic percussion writing in this bold and inventive new work will excite the listener and free the imagination.

Night Flight of the Gargoyles - Timothy Loest
This harrowing work depicts a horde of scowling, bewitched gargoyles as they break free from their stone perches and fly about under cover of darkness. After a vengeful introduction, the aggressive theme takes off, supported bybombastic percussion. Each section gets its say with the melody, and your clarinetists will love playing the bloodcurdling screams (played by removing the mouthpiece and barrel). A bold and dramatic work for concert or contest!(2:20)

£140.80Tocca Fuga Loca - Mickey Nicolas
As the title clearly indicates this is a kind of "Foolish Toccata and Fugue", written in collaboration with Dsir Dondeyne. Both the introduction and the free fugue incited Master Dondeyne to develop, in a most skilful and diligent way, the three classical "informal" pieces which everybody will recognize.

£61.00Kol Nidrei - Max Bruch
The German composer Max Bruch was born in 1838 and died in 1920.

It is based on an old Hebraic tune sung on the Great Reconciliation Day and was originally composed for cello and orchestra. This arrangement is a free adaptation for wind band.

£286.40Fifth Symphony - Alfred Reed
This work was commissioned by the Senzoku Gakuen College of Music in Tokyo in celebration of its 70th anniversary in 1994. However, in view of the invitation by WASBE (World Association of Symphonic Bands and Ensembles) for its Wind Orchestra to perform at the 7th annual convention of this association, to be held in Hamamatsu, Japan, in the summer of 1995, it was decided to premiere the music at that time instead of the anniversary year itself. The symphony is in three movements, with an introduction marked 'Moderately and sustained' leading to the first movement proper, a driving 'Allegro assai' whose main thematic material is first heard in the timpani and mallet percussion. The second movement, from which the symphony drives its sub-title, is an extended treatment of one of the oldest and most beloved Japanese folk songs 'Sakura' ('Cherry Blossoms'), a long-breathed elegiac melody taken as the basis for a free variation development through all the individual sections of the orchestra. The third movement is a brilliant rondo form (Allegro Molto, con fuoco) in which some elements of the preceding two movements are incorporated to bring the entire work to a breath-taking conclusion in a final burst of virtuoso performance from every instrument in the ensemble. The 'Fifth Symphony (Sakura)' was first performed on July 26th 1995, by the Senzoku Gakuen Symphonic Wind Orchestra under the direction of the composer, at the 7th WASBE Conference in Hamamatsu, Japan.

£90.30Quatre Bras - Willy Hautvast
The title of this work is pure fantasy. You could think it refers to the four parts composing this piece.1. Entry: a solemn overture starting in the minor and ending in the major key.2. Dance: a quite light piece boasting very irregular rhythms.3. Reverie: a short piece with a rather dreamy character with ups and downs and with a rather free tempo.4. Cortege (Procession): the procession starts at a solemn pace and proceeds very merrily towards a final full of rich sounds.
