£210.80The Pied Piper of Hamelin (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Schwarz, Otto M.
Stories, sagas and legends--who among us don't know them? Always delivered with a tinge of brutality, these cautionary tales are a legacy of moral education from times past: inquisitive children alone in the forest are generally eaten by a witch; the 'Soup-Kasper' of Hoffmann's Struwwelpeter dies from starvation rather than eating his soup; anyone letting in strangers usually gets devoured; anyone who plays with matches gets burned; and thumb-suckers get their thumbs cut off. The list of unfortunate demises is almost endless.In the tale of The Pied Piper of Hamelin, parents lose their children through greed, ridicule, scorn and a failure to appreciate art. There is still a street in the town of Hamelin in which neither drumming nor playing has not been allowed since 130 children disappeared into a mountain, never to be seen again. This composition by Otto M. Schwarz opens with exactly this scene, taking us back to the year 1284. As in many towns at the time, Hamelin in Germany suffered with hygiene problems--rats and mice began to multiply rapidly, and the town was overrun with the plague. There appeared a man dressed in colourful clothes who promised the locals to free them from this burden. They agreed and settled on a fee. Then the man pulled out a pipe and began to play. When the rats and mice heard this, they followed him. He led the animals into the Weser River, where they all drowned. Back in town, the people refused to pay him. They didn't recognise this man's skills and knowledge and were only prepared to pay for simple labour. A pact with the devil was made, which led to the Pied Piper leaving the town in a furious rage. One Sunday, when many people were at church, he returned, took out his flute and began to play. The town's children were so enchanted by his playing that they followed him. He led them out of the town and disappeared with them forever into a mountain forever. Of all the children, only two survived--however one was mute, and one was blind. In the street from which the children left Hamelin, music may no longer be played in memory of this event. The work may be performed in two different versions: 1. Purely instrumental (without narrator)--the GPs (pauses) must be kept short 2. With narrator--he speaks in the GPs but not during the music.Duration: 14.15

£164.95Amphibiosity (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Ellerby, Martin
Amphibiosity was commissioned by the Royal Marines Band Service with funds made available by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charities for the 2014 Mountbatten Festival of Music held at the Royal Albert Hall in London.The work was written in celebration of the 350th Anniversary of the Royal Marines Corps and utilises many familiar tunes associated with them. Although the piece is cast in one continuous movement it falls into an introductions, ten sections and a coda.The Introduction sets the tone with the Amphibiosity mofif - a call to attention, it is of serious intent. During the course of the work it returns as a point of reference. The first section makes use of The Globe and Laurel (Original Regimental Slow March of the Royal Marines, the tune (Early One Morning) making an apt appearance, it has been played in the minor and like much of the quotational material in the piece is of a referenced nature being symbolic in meaning. However it soon turns to the major to provide a less sombre aspect to the introduction proper. There follows an interlude, the Amphibiosity motif returning rather like a ritornello to give cohesion to the structure and act as a point of change.Section two presents Sarie Marais (Regimental March Past of the Royal Marine Commandoes), the first half of the tune used as a fugal subject (placed in the minor) and as such providing the impression of a building up of activity. The ensuing third section is light-hearted commencing with an original hornpipe leading into the fourth section, Seascape, representing the fleet at sea. Another interlude follows, the Amphibiosity motif reappearing as a woodwind fanfare making way for the fifth section. Anticipation, serious matters lie ahead, there is trouble in the papers, the Corps will be placed on standby.Section six is subtitled Preparation, all hands-on deck, time to get set: A Life on the Ocean Wave (Regimental March of the Royal Marines) is alluded to. On reaching section seven, Assault, the landing goes ahead. Within this section there is an internal interlude reflecting on things past: other men have been in this position before. It is a taut and trying situation, training must pay off!Section eight is named Victory, but not gung-ho, and here the Seascape music is revisited. The penultimate ninth section is called Rememberances, although all made it this time, it was not always the case in times past and the Naval Hymn (Eternal Father) provides a moment of tribute to the fallen of previous generations.The Finale (section ten) delivers By Land and Sea (Slow March of the Royal Marines) in a bright and positive orchestration, the mood being celebratory. In a brief Code, the Amphibiosity motif makes a last triumphant appearance.Duration: 10.30
