£72.99Walking to the Sky (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Buckley, Robert
Walking to the Sky takes an epic, cinematic approach to celebrate humankind's collective quest for wisdom and transcendence. It was inspired by a 100-foot Jonathan Borofsky sculpture, which creates the illusion of a group of people walking skyward into infinity. With pulsing percussion, heroic brass, haunting melodies, sudden shifts in dynamics and dramatic key changes, everyone in the ensemble gets a chance to star in this exciting mini-movie score. To add even more grandeur, there is an optional choir part (that could be played on a synthesizer).Duration: 3:45

£104.99Oriental Postcards (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Crausaz, Etienne
Oriental Postcards is comprised of three variations on a theme with an Eastern character: in From Egypt, the theme is contrastingly first played in brass and then in woodwind; in From the Desert the drums play an important role; and in From the Orient Express the theme appears in a dun, light-hearted guise. This catchy composition was especially written for young musicians and is especially suitable for youth bands.Duration: 6:40

£82.95Momentum (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Bernotas, Chris M.

The pulse is driving and the excitement is evident with syncopation, powerful brass, and impressive technical lines that all lead to many highs and lows before making way to a reflective section. The slower section features several soloists to create a change in mood. "Momentum" is always moving forward with many exciting challenges for all players and embodies a sense of pride, accomplishment, and celebration.Duration: 6:15

£69.99Der Aufstand (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Higgins, Gavin
Der Aufstand (German for 'riot') is not a descriptive work, nor is it solely based on the riots of 2011. It does, however, draw on the idea of opposing forces and escalating anger. The work falls into two contrasting sections that are linked by a series of repeated, 'screaming' chords. A slow build drives the first section from a single pitch to a blazing orchestral tutti. The second section is a fast and wild series of fanfares and driving rhythms that ultimately cannot be sustained. In many ways this mirrors the first. Both sections open on single tones (Bb and E) and grow to a climax of brass and hammered chords. The first performance took place on the last day of the 2012 Olympic Games. Der Aufstand is a noisy antithesis to the celebratory fanfare. Duration: 10.00

£110.00Fiesta (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Curtis, Matthew - Noble, Paul
Despite its Spanish title, the concert overture Fiesta is really Italian, recalling a festival that I saw several times as a child in the late 1960s while holidaying in a village at the southern tip of the bay of Naples. The date is August 15, the occasion the feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, celebrated with colourful processions and ritual (some, one imagines, pre-Christian in origin), all rounded off with brass bands and home-made fireworks. - Matthew Curtis. Fiesta was originally written for the orchestra of St. Paul's School in London, It has had performances in London's Queen Elizabeth Hall and the Royal Festival Hall where it opened a live broadcast concert in the BBC's International Festival of Light Music, and has made intermittent appearances on the radio ever since. This arrangement for Wind Band will make an excellent festival opener for accomplished bands and is a sure crowd pleaser with its dynamic flare and energy.

£184.99Sacred Harp (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Bocook, Jay
Jay's impressive three-movement suite is based on melodies from the early American "Sacred Harp" singing tradition is a masterwork of dramatic orchestrational devices. "Stratfield" opens with a striking statement by the saxes and double reeds, then builds intensity using woodwind flourishes and soaring brass lines. "Idumea" begins in a quiet and delicate manner then gives way to thundering percussion and striking harmonic effects. The joyous "Pisgah" has a barn dance quality that provides the perfect conclusion to this powerful work for winds.Duration: 8:00
