£92.99As One Listens to the Rain - Daniel French
As One Listens to the Rain is a marriage of two distinct musical ideas. The first, a solitary, solemn melody, is introduced in the trumpet and cloaked in an aura of slowly shifting transparent harmonies. This idea soon gives wayto flowing lines and falling gestures that invoke an image of cascading rainfall. A hymn-like interlude provides a brief respite before the return of the rain which, in this final form, spins and tumbles over itself. A stirringand evocative work for modern winds. Dur: 6:30

£53.50Particles - Michael Sweeney
This unusual work portrays the transformation of matter from solid to liquid and ultimately to gas. You'll hear a single musical theme transformed throughout, starting with a very rigid and dense opening statement. From there thetheme is treated in a lyrical style (liquid), and finally the pace becomes frantic and energetic as the melodic particles transform into gas. Using unique scoring techniques (including a few aleatoric sections and dramaticpercussion effects) this descriptive work will stir the imagination of players and audience alike. Dur: 5:30

The piece opens and closes with a series of dramatic musical snapshots. Inbetween, the music evolves and transforms through a wide range of stylistic textures andmoods. A brilliantly scored and effective setting for winds. Dur: 5:15
