£104.99Farewell Medley
While it can be fairly easy to select a musical piece for the beginning of a concert, the search for a proper closing piece can sometimes be more difficult. Helping to fill this gap was Stefan Schwalgin's motivation for this Farewell Medley. In this piece he has woven four world-famous folk tunes from the Anglo/Irish/Scottish culture (Danny Boy, Amazing Grace, The Last Post and Auld Lang Syne) into a high-quality arrangement that allows the band to display its full range of colours at the end of any concert.

£58.50Highlander - Carl Strommen
This energetic concert or festival opener is sure to make your band sparkle! Highlander is full of bright melodies for the woodwinds and trumpets juxtaposed with bagpipe-like drones in the low brass, calling to mind images of old Scotland. Generous use of the piccolo adds to the Scottish flair. A lovely woodwind chorale provides for an interesting contrast in the middle section, only to be interrupted by the exciting main melody which modulates and brings Highlander to a fantastic finish. Highlander is another sparkling concert or contest showpiece by Carl Strommen!

£134.99Loch Ness - Johan de Meij
The symphonic poem 'Loch Ness' consists of five through-composed impressions of this mysterious Scottish Lake. I) The Lake At Dawn - calm, static, sonorous blocks depict the troubled opaque water surface and the enormous depth of the Lake at daybreak. II) Slowly the rising early-morning mist reveals the distant ruins of Urquhart Castle, represented by a solemn theme in the trombones which is taken over by the full band, thus evoking the illustrious past of this fortress besieged so many times. III) Inverness: Bagpipes and Tourists - the music takes us down to the town of Inverness where the first tourists mark the slow but steady start of a new season to the sound of a Scottishmelody. IV) Storm - suddenly a heavy wheater breaks: fierce gusts of wind and heavy showers transform the erstwhile calm surface into an obscure and whirling mass of water, and clouds rapidly passing over offer an eery scene... V) Conclusion - storm and rain gradually decrease and when everything is quiet again we are granted a last view of the Lake in its full glory.
