£141.99Jalan-Jalan - Shin'ya Takahashi
Jalan-jalan was inspired by the music of Bali, Indonesia based upon its unique melodies, modes and rhythms. As part of the independent archipelago "Ryukyu", Okinawa (southernmost Japan) had an active exchange with Bali that included cultural and musical influences. Jalan-jalan means "walkabout" or "walking journey" in Indonesian. It describes a walk in the so-called Isle of the Gods, encountering Bali's beautiful scenery and daily life. Its four themes include "Dawn," "Morning Market," "Beach in Early Afternoon" and "Kecak Dance (a form of Balinese dance and music drama, performed primarily by men) in Torchlight."An imposing pesante introduction will properly establish this song's mood. Boldly balance winds and percussion to the prominent timpani solo. At Allegro Vivo, observe the lighter abbreviated scoring and balance melody/countermelody at E. Melodies are elongated at the Grazioso, and tenor/bass rhythm figures need enough separation to be felt. The urgent-feeling Presto must initially be reserved except for the percussive "slaps"; same thing again at O. The daunting rhythmic figure at Q is actually a chattering effect-combine the two elements to teach continuity and placement. Don't "over blow" the ending, but continue to emphasize unique rhythmic elements.(Shin'ya Takahashi)

£93.50Coming Home - Chandler L. Wilson
"Coming Home" is an extraordinary work that delves into the profound emotions tied to returning to one's place of origin after a long absence. Time away is often filled with adventures, challenges, rewards, and a myriad of experiences that shape one's journey, and the act of coming home signifies more than just physical return; it embodies a rush of happiness and anticipation, a reconnection with familiar surroundings, and the comfort of being in a space that feels like one's own. The music captures the essence of finding solace in the familiar, reuniting with loved ones, and enjoying the comforts that home provides. It's a place where one can relax, reflect, and rejuvenate, planting new roots while cherishing the experiences that have led them back. The feeling of coming home is not just about returning to a physical space, but also about reconnecting with oneself and one's sense of belonging. Beautiful and moving!This work is not yet in print. Please check back later to view the conductor score and for purchasing information. In the meantime, please enjoy this recording performed by The Washington Winds, conducted by Edward S. Petersen.
