£73.50Beyond Whistler (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Ford, Ralph
The closing movement from the Sea to Sky Suite is Beyond Whistler. After whisking down this highest and most treacherous of slopes, the listener stops to view what lies beyond. This movement is finalized with a long, slow build to the climax, again using the motif that is present throughout the entire suite. It is to be performed with a great sense of wonder and excitement, with a gradual build to the end. A grand conclusion to this dynamic suite. Also consider programming the first three movements: March: The Lion's Gate, Shannon Falls and Stawamus Chief.Duration: 7:15

£74.95Punchinello (March) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Rimmer, William - Brand, Geoffrey
For many, Lancastrian William Rimmer is Britain's 'March King.' His marches are wonderful, every one with its own unique personality and form. Like Sousa, he also created and played a vast catalogue of band music ranging from waltzes and solos to great selections from the masters, but it is for his marches that he is remembered today. Pulcinella, often called Punchinello or Punch in English, is a classic character with a long nose which originated in the 17th century Italian Commedia dell arte.
