£108.50Like A Feather In The Water - Samuel Pascoal
This symphonic poem was written at the request of the Portuguese Navy Band on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the ship the N. R. P Sagres of the Portuguese Navy. The composer travelled on the ship during a mission from Lisbon to the Azores, and describes his experiences in this piece. The seasickness, the unsteady walking, the dolphins and whales he saw. And on his return journey the raging seas, storms, high waves and ripping sails. Among the glory of the marines we hear snippets of the march and anthem of the Portuguese Navy.

£38.20Under the Double Eagle - J.F. Wagner
The Austrian military bandmaster Josef Franz Wagner (1856-1908) used to be called the 'Austrian March King'. He wrote some 400 compositions, 250 of which have been published. Among his well-known marches we mention 'Tiroler Holzhacker Buab'n', 'Erzherzog Johann Jodler', 'Wiener Brger', '47er Regimentsmarsch' and, of course, 'Unter dem Doppeladler' (Under the Double Eagle) opus 19. The title of this immortal march refers to the double eagle in the coat of arms of the Austro-Hungarian double monarchy. The march became so popular that it was recorded thrice by the Sousa-band before J.F.Wagner died at the age of 52. It became the official regimental march of the 1st Austrian Artillery Regiment Number 2.

£228.70Pulsar - The Metamorphosis of a Star - John Brakstad
4th July in 1054 AD one of the most spectacular events was witnessed in the Cosmos. A massive star blew out; a supernova explosion.From the Earth it appeared as a new, bright star; the most brilliant in the sky. It was visible for three weeks, also in daylight, before it then faded away.But what was left of it is spectacular. Today we call it the "Crab Nebula".And in the very centre of the Nebula lies the remnant of the star; the core crushed by the force of gravity.This is a rotating neutron star, a pulsar, just 20 kilometres across, but so dense that it weighs more than our sun.As the neutron star spins, ejected particles stream out from its poles at almost the speed of light.These jets create powerful beams that sweep around as the star rotates.When the beams sweep across the Earth, they can be heard as regular pulses. We call them pulsars.In this piece there are three percussion parts. In addition there is an "optional part" to replace the marimba and vibraphone written in the three original percussion parts if desired. This fourth part is shown in the full score.

£101.30Honor to the Veterans - Tormod Brufladt
The march "Honour to the Veterans" was the composers third composition ever. He sent this march to Kjell Martinsen, who was the conductor of The Kings Guards Band in Norway. He liked the march so much that it was included on the CD which was releasedin connection with the bands 150 years anniversary.The march is not very difficult. There is a variety of melody lines in the march that differs from many other marches, especially the piccolo flute solo makes it a little bit special. Themarch is also playable for bands lacking a piccolo flute player, because the melody line in this part of the march is well taken care of.

The Three Embraces - Carter Pann
The first two of three movements are meant to be aural aromas, says Pann, with soft, languid, and lush winds (a long trail of the softest dynamics). Harp and celesta are used to impart an aura of ancient, inward elegance. The Three Embraces ends with a celebratory mix of pastoral melodies juxtaposed over more modern, angular harmonies. Written to celebrate Allan McMurray's 35 years as Director of Bands at the University of Colorado. (all quotes from the composer) Dur.: 12'30
