£104.99Wedding March - Jan van der Roost
Wedding March is, as the name suggests, a festive composition that the composer wrote for the wedding of a good friend. Performed at the 2008 Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic in Chicago, this piece clearly reflects influences ofMendelssohn and Elgar. It is written in a festive setting, but a beautiful cantabile trio, that is very characteristic of the works of Jan van der Roost, is wonderfully included. An optional organ part is included for those whochose to add a little gloss to their performance. Dur: 5:15 (Grade 4)

£79.99Passages - Michael Sweeney
The term passage can variously describe a passageway of travel, a musical phrase, or perhaps the soul's moving on from this world to the next. In this work for band, dark and rich sonorities are contrasted with a lilting,Celtic-flavored melody as it alternates with striking passages from the brass. Later, an alto sax soloist adds a haunting quality to the mood followed by a return of the ethnic drumming heard earlier. This unique and rewardingcomposition is beautifully paced and skillfully orchestrated using every section of the band. Dur: 7:00 (Grade 4)
