£149.40Introduction - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen
"Introduction" is a short concert opener. I quote a couple of Norwegian Folk Tunes to make a musical picture of the Vikings running from the seashore to face a battle. They used to drink something made of mushrooms to prevent fear and pain - They became Berserkings! The piece was originally scored for Brass Band and commissioned by Manger Musikklag in 1998. This version was commissioned by The Royal Norwegian Navy Band in 2002 and re-edited in 2018.

Crystal Mountain Festival - Steve Hodges
Steve Hodges creates a rhythmically interesting concert selection using nothing more complicated than dotted quarter eighth-note figures - perfect for your developing band! A syncopated low brass figure in 3/4 times serves as the foundation for the soaring melodies and countermelodies. Great for working on both legato and marcato playing, as well as on dynamics, articulations and key changes!

£71.50Quail Creek Overture - David Gorham
This selection was commissioned by the Central Oklahoma Band Directors Association for the CODA Ninth Grade Honor Band. After an energetic opening, a lyrical legato section is introduced by a woodwind choir and answered by a brass choir before returning to the original excitement of the opening section. A beautiful slower section in 3/4 time follows before the opening section returns, taking the piece to a strong, bold ending.

£54.99Waltz of the Turtles - Jerry A. West
Heres a light and entertaining work for first-year musicians thats the perfect vehicle for teaching and reinforcing playing in 3/4 time. As the title implies, its meant to be a fun and good-humored piece that makes learning and playing fun. It begins with the full ensemble and then allows the woodwinds and then brass to perform separately, making the piece easy to rehearse and prepare while teaching rhythmic independence. A great entertaining and educational addition to any elementary band program.

Majestic Solemnity - Menno Bosgra
For this impressive opening work by Menno Bosgra, the composer uses a kind of brass band theme which is alternated with a solemn chorale. Both themes are orchestrated differently and each instrumental group takes turns playing. This makes the piece extremely colourful. At the end, both themes are combined with each other. This is a dynamic opening work for your concerts!

Toccata Festiva - Jan Van der Roost
'Toccata Festiva' was commissioned in 1994 by the Dutch Brass Band Championships. The wind band version was made a year later by the composer himself. Historically speaking, the toccata is considered to be one of the first independent instrumental forms for keyboard instruments. Originally the toccata was typically more or less improvised, later this musical form was given a more regulated structure. Both elements are used in the 'Toccata Festiva': on the one hand the different themes are developed freely, on the other, the piece has an orderly structure. It is in a three part form (quick-slow-quick) and includes both strong rhythmical figures and broad melodic lines. Partof the composition is written in a more or less archaic tone idiom, referring to the period from which the toccata form originates (16th century).
