£140.80Concerto pour Harpe - Serge Lancen
It was his charming wife Raphale, a fine harpist, who drew Serge Lancen's attention to the harp. He has written various works for this instrument, such as: 'Pour Raphale', 'Duo Concertant' for harp and flute, 'Crpuscule' for two harps, 'Concerto Champtre' for solo harp and chamber orchestra, and many pieces in a lighter vein for harp quintet and this Harp Concerto. The initial cadenza was inspired by Camille Saint-Sans Second Piano Concerto a work which Serge Lancen studied as a young boy. The Harp Concerto can be played with a symphonic band, a string orchestra or the piano.This work, dedicated to his wife, was premiered in July 1990 during the First Le Havre International Wind Band Festival , by Marie-Pierre Cochereau and the Le Havre Municipal Symphonic Band, conducted by Philippe Langlet.

Rejoissant! - David Shaffer
As the title suggests, is a celebration of life's conquering obstacles, specifically of the composer's own personal battle against cancer. Written for the Upper Sandusky High School (Ohio) Wind Ensemble and with the thanks from the composer for the support and opportunity to compose this piece during a very difficult period of time, "Rejoissant!" opens with a slower dramatic fanfare in the brass and percussion. The simple but forceful melody is repeated in several forms throughout the piece, including the beautiful and melodic middle section. This exceptionally emotional and energetic composition is suitable for all concerts and especially festival performances.
