In the Bleak Mid-Winter - James Curnow
What a wonderful idea! Make beautiful music such as this available at the Grade 1 level! Even young bands love to play enchantingly beautiful melodies. You've spent a lot of time and effort in helping your students learn to play full value notes, breathe in appropriate places, and stretch out their phrases so that they sound more mature and less like beginners. IN THE BLEAK MID-WINTER by Holst is a perfect opportunity for them to truly realize the value of these things you've been teaching. Your musicians will come away from the experience of preparing this piece with a better understanding of how to shape a melodic phrase and play with warm, reserved elegance.Captivating!

Listen as the parade slowly approaches and the trumpets lead the ensemble with the main theme. Following this are question and answer statements typical of the style and a feature spot for percussion (who will have a field day with the unique instruments). While this is playable with as few as 4 percussionists, having more players will add to the festive atmosphere. (2:50)

£53.50Ancient Voices - Michael Sweeney

Yet the combined effect is sophisticated and impressive far beyond its easy level. Michael uses a wealth of contemporary devices (including tone clusters, recorders, singing, pencil tapping) to create an aura of prehistoric times. This new edition includes a full recording and is a must for every program. (3:45)
