First Christmas Suite - Mike Hannickel
Beginners LOVE to feel like they are playing "REAL MUSIC", even at that first winter performance. These simple arrangements of well-known carols let your students do just that. AND - the "suite" format let's you draw the beginning band's entire share of that first concert from one arrangement, if you like, saving on scarce music library funds. The sound of "Good King Wenceslas" and "Oh Come Little Children" belies the simplicity of the arrangements, and "Jolly Old St. Boogie-Claus" is just plain "riff-style" fun! They'll love this one!!

£87.00Holy Night in the Mountains Silence
Christmas in the Alps enchants people because of the very special atmosphere with a combination of attentive silence and the blue shining moonlight. At Christmas time, one can often hear in the distance a small group of wind players performing some old traditional carols in front of one or other little chapel in the mountains. This Christmas Carol medley by Willi Mrz reminds us of that tradition. He has arranged tunes from ancient Bavarian and Austrian Christmas Carols and shepherd songs. The religious 'Andachtsjodler' is still sung at Christmas time in the churches of Bavaria and Tyrol.

£54.99Concerto for Triangle - Mike Hannickel
This easy-to-prepare beginning band comedy piece will have the audience rolling in the aisles. Feature that popular principal, custodian, secretary or any other staff or community member who has a little bit of comedian in them as the "Triangle soloist." One interruption after another prevents the "soloist" from actually playing the Triangle until the very end of the piece where, with a band member's assistance, the soloist finally gets to play the Triangle one single time. Everyone will love it! Side-splitting!

£286.40Poeme du Feu - Ida Gotkovsky
Major Albert Fasce, head of the musical department of the French Army, wrote about Pome du Feu:The Pome du Feu by Madame Ida Gotkovski is probably one of the original compostitions for symphonic band which has been most successful in recent years. I have had to conduct this work at concerts with different orchestras, and in particular at Budapest, and each performance was greeted by enthusiastic ovations. Moreover, it is quite rare in contemporary music to achieve, at the same time, the satisfaction of the musicians and success with the public. This is significant. This magnificent work is written remakably for wind instruments. There is no major technical difficulty, but the character of this work calls for meticulous placing and a certain orchestral glow. There is a "key" to be found in the first movement, which is in some way the rhythmic genesis of the work. The metronome marking of the first movement should be absolutely respected, and proper interpretation of the accents and the articulations are imperative. The fortissimi and rallentandi should not be exaggerated. As far as the little "trick" is concerned, this lies in the execution of the double crochets which should be considered in two ways: the first, a rhythmical one for those which arise from the rhythmic genesis, and the second more melodic for those arising in passages.Finally, to unseal the rhythmic origin of the double crochets, it is necessary to proceed by recurrence, starting from the four double crochets of the finale.These four double crochets must be executed very rhythmically in the different times. For the first, they arise:1: from the second bar of the first movement2: from the bar three bars before A for the second3: from the bar from G to the fourth time for the third.These double crochets must be played rhythmcally, while diminishing, however, those three bars before A.All this is of great importance, otherwise the whole execution will be in contradition with the spirit and the rhythmic inspiration of the work. Moreover, this beautiful work could very well support a ballet.As Head of Broadcast Music I must express all our gratitude to Madame Gotkovski for her contribution to constituting a real repertoire for wind ensemble. This articular and sometimes unappreceated band possesses unsuspected riches. This magnificent work is now in the repertoire of Musique de l'Air de France.
