    God So Loved the World - Score and Parts - Sir John Stainer

    The Crucifixion, an oratorio composed by John Stainer in 1887 was designed in such a way that most church choirs would find it accessible. Also, it helpfully includes five hymns so that the congregation can contribute also. Whilst the text for this work was written by W J Sparrow Simpson, who worked with Stainer in an earlier work entitled 'Mary Magdalene', that used in this setting of 'God, so loved the world' is literal from John 3 verse 16 in the scriptures. This movement of 'The Crucifixion' is the most popular and widely used.

    Hammond - Score and Parts - Kenneth Downie

    Program NotesThe hymn tune arrangement Hammond is a setting of a beautiful song 'In the Love of Jesus' with a melody by William Hammond and words by Ivy Mawby. The beautiful sequential curves of the melodic line are exploited in this arrangement to produce a full and rich texture, which will sound immensely satisfying once balanced and refined.The words that are associated with this tune are as follows:In the love of Jesus there is all I need,While I follow closely where my Lord may lead;By his Grace forgiven,In his presence blest,In the love of Jesus,In the love of Jesus, is perfect rest.

    I Vow to Thee, My Country - Score and Parts - Gustav Holst

    Program NotesGustav Holst's orchestral suite The Planets is perhaps his best known and most popular composition. The them in the central section of the movement Jupiter was adapted by the composer himself to fit the words of the song and has subsequently found its way into use as a hymn tune under the title Thaxted (named after the Essex town where the composer lived).Ray Steadman-Allen's arrangement of the tune for brass band was published by The Salvation Army in 1998. That arrangement has now been transcribed for wind band by Brian Bowen. It can be effectively used as a stand-alone concert item or as a song accompaniment for either choir or audience.

    Just As You Are - Score and Parts - Rob Wiffin

    Just As You Are is a laid back, almost smoky, number where the relaxed tempo and bluesy notation is prevalent. The piece is structured in ABA form that offers the listener a sense of familiarity when the opening theme returns. This is a contrasting item that leans on the saxophone section to provide a beautifully calm, unhurried feel.

    Keep Me Praising - Score and Parts - Andrew Mackereth

    Program NotesBased on the song melodies "Give Me Joy in My Heart, Keep Me Praising" and "Praise, My Soul the King of Heaven," the music is largely light-hearted in nature with some florid semi-quaver work overlaying the melodic lines and some interesting interplay between the two selected tunes. We believe that it will have wide appeal both to players and listeners.Andrew Mackareth originally wrote this piece for The Salvation Army's Symphonic Wind Ensemble, but it was first published in a rescored version for brass band. We are please to be able to release it in its original form in this collection of wind band music.

    Keep the Faith - Score and Parts - Duncan Stubbs

    Program NotesKeep the Faith originally started as a personal tribute to my late mother. Not long after writing the opening ideas I was approached to write music to accompany a rendition of the poem "We Will Keep the Faith" by Moina Michael for performance as part of the 100th Anniversary of the start og World War I. The appropriateness of the music already written and the sentiment behind both concepts was a coincidence too good to overlook. Rarely sentimental and always practical I feel sure my mum would be delighted that the music she originally inspired was being used to portray a much wider universal message of remembrance.Whether performed with or without the poem a fully sustained sound should always be aimed for. The 'bugle' call at bar 20 and again at bar 76 should reflect a distant call across the trenches, the cornet remaining prominent over the upper woodwind. The tempo indication is a guide only and allowance must be made for the acoustic in which the piece is performed. The music must always flow, but appropriate rubato should be freely used together with appropriate tenuto in the middle of phrases.- Duncan Stubbs

    Lakeside Drawings - Score and Parts - Richard Phillips

    Program NotesOnce a year, my wife and I like to visit the beautiful Lake District in the northwestern sector of England in the county of Cumbria. It has been a place of much inspiration for many composers over the years and when amidst the rolling countryside, the lofty mountain peaks, it is no wonder. Lakeside Drawings was started when I visited the Lakes and seeks to reflect the contours of the many mountain peaks through the sometimes soaring melodic lines of the composition. It is a piece based on tunes reflecting the aspect and also of the mindset of the many walkers who have scaled the mountains to achieve an ambition of reaching a summit. Once reached, a glorious view is a prize worth every hour of tiring ascent.-Richard Phillips

    Light-Walk - Score and Parts - Barrie Gott

    Program NotesThe tune Walk in the Light received "big band" treatment in this fun arrangement from the pen of Australian Barrie Gott. Barrie's originality and flair shine through as his own original music sits comfortably alongside the old tune.There is a central 'jazz break' solo passage placed in the trumpet line in which the written solo notation is supplemented by chord indications that will offer scope for improvisation by the soloist if desired.This is an entertaining piece that will prove to be a popular addition to the repertoire, both from the listeners' and players' viewpoints.

    Montreal Citadel - Score and Parts - Norman Audoire

    Montreal Citadel is a march constructed in a traditional format and contains a full blooded opening that was reflective of the extremely large band that the composer was conducting at the time of composition. The lilting melody line on the trio section is sure to get those toes-tapping.
