£32.95Sinfonietta No.2 (Concert Band - Score only) - Sparke, Philip
Commissioned by the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain and first performed by them on 6th August 1992.1. Overture: VivaceA bustling opening movement in sonata form. After an introduction in which a syncopated theme is tossed around the band, the first subject proper gives way to a more legato second theme. A scherzando bridge passage leads to the recapitulation.2. Serenade: Lento ExpressivoA short introduction leads to a sonorous theme from the middle of the band. A slightly more rhythmic central 5/8 section leads to a short cadenza-like duet for two alto saxes which reintroduces the opening of the movement.3. Finale: Molto VivaceA fast and furious finale which fails to settle long enough for a real theme to develop as motivic ideas are thrown from player to player. Eventually a violently syncopated tune emerges from the middle of the band but this is interrupted by a reflective interlude. In time the faster music returns and the movement hurtles to a close.Duration: 16.10Recorded on QPRM124D MIGHTY VOICE, Great British Music for Wind Band Vol.3

£32.95JOHN GAY SUITE (Novello Symphonic Band) Extra Score - Orr, Buxton
Extra score only. The idea for this suite came from left-over thoughts from a projected version of The Beggar's Opera, which failed to come to fruition. When John Gay assembles the music for The Beggar's Opera in 1727, he used popular tunes of the day and Dr. Pepusch provided orchestral accompaniments. More recently, Frederic Austin and Benjamin Britten have been amongst many composers who have adapted these melodies to their own purposes. Duration: 15 mins. Recorded on QPRM127D Great British Music for Wind Band Vol.4 (Guildhall Symphonic Wind Ensemble, Peter Gane)
