£48.95In Darkest Night - Barry E. Kopetz
was composed to highlight the dark, thick and rich quality of the key of C minor. As musical keys have long been associated with various states of emotion, C minor has often been called the "key of darkness." The slow introduction presents the primary theme in augmented fashion over a C pedal point, leading to the robust Allegro Ritmico. The theme is aggressive, poignant, terse, and yes . . . dark! The piece concludes with a series of rapid, pounding, off-beat C minor triads preceding the final chord. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

£82.95Antiphonal Fanfare - Aleksander Sternfeld-Dunn
This outstanding contemporary fanfare is based on phrases that overlap throughout the ensemble. The work carries a sense of triumph and power as the sweeping phrases continue to build in intensity under spectacular woodwind runs. A middle section contrasts the first with long melodic lines before returning to the opening material in a truncated form to bring the work to a stunning conclusion. Incredible use of counterpoint and harmony make this an exceptional work that will set your group apart from the rest!
