£59.99Pilgrim Traveler (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Broege, Timothy
Skilfully combining four distinctive melodies from the early American shape-note hymnal The Sacred Harp, Timothy Broege has created a wonderful single movement setting for band that includes many moods and styles. Pilgrim and Traveler form the principal themes of the piece and undergo a series of variations. Aylesbury and Jerrerson are used as transitional melodies and are combined with the other two as the music becomes increasingly complex and contrapuntal. The the words of the composer, 'the music may be heard to portray a journey, perhaps a spiritual quest undertaken by a travelling pilgrim seeking solace or enlightenment.' From tender and serene to bold and stark, this inventive work makes an impressive statement.Duration: 5:45

£84.99Toccata (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Monteverdi, Claudio - De Haan, Jacob
Claudio Monteverdi composed this toccata as an instrumental introduction for the opera L'Orfeo (1607). According to the composer, this introduction should be played three times before the rising of the curtain. This is actually the first overture in the history of opera.)The story of Orfeo, who enchanted nature with his music, is tragic, as he loses his beloved Eurydice and decides to retrieve her from the underworld. On their return journey, one glance back at her is fatal: he loses her for the second time.)This arrangement for wind band is very suitable as a concert opener. The toccata is played three times just like the original. The first time it is played by a quintet consisting of two trumpets and three trombones.)Various ways of performing this toccata are possible. The tension builds up more intensely if the quintet starts off stage. Eventually, these five players join the band, after which the tutti version follows two times. You can also have the brass play from the gallery during the second or third time for a double choir effect.Duration: 2:00
