£53.95Desperate Pursuit (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Barnes, James
Desperate Pursuit is a driving and dramatic overture from the pen of award-winning composer, James Barnes. Based on the D Phrygian scale, the piece gets its name from the rapid, rhythmic motion of the piece. The intensity of Phrygian mode, colourful low woodwind and wispy percussion writing in the contrasting lyrical section of the work, and the dramatic, pulsating timpani part throughout the piece combine to bring a frantic quality to the music.Duration: 4.00

£53.50Viper (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Bocook, Jay
Paying tribute to the storied F-16 Fighting Falcon jet fighter (known to pilots as the "Viper" and flown by the USAF Thunderbirds), this unique and fresh-sounding overture from Jay Bocook is characterised by bold harmonies and driving rhythmic patterns. The opening slow section sets a mood of anticipation with dark sonorities and brief solos, followed by the fast section which contrasts a striking melody with moments of angular intensity.Duration: 3:20

£75.00Arietta (from Masquerade Suite) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Halvorsen, Johan - Noble, Paul
Masquerade Suite was composed by Johan Halvorsen, one of the best-kept secrets of Norway. Not only was he an accomplished violinist and conductor, but also he was among the most prominent Norwegian composers in the generation following Edvard Grieg. His compositions develop the national Romantic tradition of his friends Grieg and Svendsen, but his was a distinctive style marked by brilliant orchestration inspired by the French Romantic composers. The original version of Masquerade Suite had nine movements. Paul Noble has selected five of the most suitable movements for band transcription and grouped them into this beautiful suite. The U.S. Navy Band in Washington, D.C. gave the premiere performance of this work. The first movement, Holberg Overture, sets the mood, pace, and musical themes for the entire suite, with rousing opening themes, followed by a grand fugue in the development section. This is clearly a piece for accomplished bands, giving all wind players a real workout. Each of the succeeding movements has a distinctive style, making the suite a significant addition to the repertoire of the Concert Band. Especially noteworthy is the Arietta, the easiest of the movements, and can easily stand alone with its haunting flute and oboe melodies and dramatic crescendo, the crisp solos in the Molinasque, and the final movement, which is very much like a circus march, fast, lively and short!

£134.99Le Nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus - Takahashi, Tohru
In 1786, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed his wonderful opera Le Nozzi di Figaro. In the opera Count Almaviva tries to seduce the fianc?e of Figaro, his valet. Eventually, through four acts full of complicated intrigue, he is outwitted. In his music, Mozart, at times in a humorous way, reflects the numerous social and erotic intrigues with both empathy and insight. The brilliant overture is just as vivacious and witty as the opera itself. Mozart delightfully anticipates the passion and playful love that is to come. The skilful transcription for concert band by the Japanese composer Tohru Takahashi certainly does justice to this enchanting music.
