£96.00Four Scottish Dances - Malcolm Arnold
These dances were composed early in 1957, and are dedicated to the BBC Light Music Festival. They are all based on original melodies but one, the melody of which is composed by Robert Burns. This Classic Band Edition is the definitive wind ensemble orchestration of worldwide renown, as referenced in the composer's own Program Notes:"The first dance is in the style of a slow strathspey -- a slow Scottish dance in 4/4 meter -- with many dotted notes, frequently in the inverted arrangement of the 'Scottish snap.' The name was derived from the strath valley of Spey. The second, a lively reel, begins in the key of E-flat and rises a semitone each time it is played until the bassoon plays it, at a greatly reduced speed, in the key of G. The final statement of the dance is at the original speed in the home key of E-flat.The third dance is in the style of a Hebridean song and attempts to give an impression of the sea and mountain scenery on a calm summer's day in the Hebrides. The last dance is a lively fling, which makes a great deal of use of the open string pitches of the violin (saxophones in the band edition)."

£74.95Coloured Glass (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob
In this cheerful, minimalist piece, the composer seeks to capture the effects of light shining, refracting, and reflecting through glass of various colours and densities. While adopting familiar minimalist features - repetition, consonant harmony, and a steady pulse - the composer is mindful of the inherent risk in the style of allowing ideas to linger for too long. To avoid this, the patterns and colours shift subtly, creating a sense of gentle transition alongside an impression of dance and energy. Most of the woodwind instruments take on fluid semiquaver movement at some point, though the music itself is not technically demanding.Duration: 3.45
