£67.50Swingin' at the Riverside - Stephen Bulla
Feature anywhere from one Saxophone up to the entire Sax section in Stephen Bulla's jazzy new arrangement titled Swingin' at the Riverside. The quick, rhythmic swing-style music is catchy to say the least! It's the perfect opportunity to "lighten up" during the next concert performance. In addition, it's a good piece to program just before or after that large work that's taxing for the Brass players. It's lots of fun for Brasses to play but gives them plenty of short rests throughout so they can refresh their chops. Now's the time to let the Saxes shine!Light-hearted and fun!

£79.99Nativity - James Curnow
Tender and expressive! Two of the most popular settings of the Away in a Manger text give the audience pause to reflect on the meaning of the season. This is one of those beautiful arrangements that is a worthwhile endeavor for bands at every level of ability. Younger groups can work on shaping phrases, balancing chords, blending the ensemble and so much more, while advanced groups have the mastery to explore their own deeply expressive and freely conducted interpretation. For groups in the middle, remember, it's always good to include a performance piece that does not require too much "note chasing" so the subtler aspects of the musical art can be examined and reinforced.Charming!

Poet and Peasant Overture - Franz von Suppé
Preludes and overtures were often written to set the mood of Viennese folk plays and therefore might be used for more than one production. Such was the case for Poet and Peasant, which introduced a comedy of the that name in 1846. The piece had already been heard as the overture to the play Lots of money, short of sleep and may also have prefaced two other plays. This overture did not belong to an opera until several years after its 1845 composition date. The themes from this overture are among the most often quoted material for comic effects for stage productions and animated cartoons. Probably, they represent, in sound, an era of nostalgia from the old-time park band concerts andare familiar to audiences of all age groups. This composition deserves to be heard in its original context as a serious, but highly entertaining, selection.

£139.99Singapura Suite - Jan Van der Roost
Singapura Suite was commissioned by Singapore's Ministry of Education Extracurricular Activities Branch to serve as a compulsory piece for the 1999 Singapore Youth Festival."Singapura" is the original name of Singapore in Malay, the native language there. Because Singapore is one of the most important harbors in the world, this two-piece work opens with a seaman's dance. An authentic melody, Chan Mali Chan, is woven into the middle of this first part, whose ABA form becomes clear through the recapitulation of the seaman's dance in a somewhat altered form.Singapore is also a dynamic city-state alive with excitement, thus the second part begins with a fitting dance, a fastbourre. As contrast there is a second authentic melody, Dayung Sampan, a more easygoing sailing song. This short but curious suite ends in high spirits with a recapitulation of the beginning.
