£91.99The Sun Will Rise Again (Concert Band - Score & Parts) - Sparke, Philip
The composer writes:On March 11th 2011 a massive 9.0- magnitude earthquake occurred off the coast of north-eastern Japan. I'm writing these programme notes barely a week later and the death toll caused by the quake and resulting tsunami already exceeds 6000, with thousands of people still unaccounted for. I have many friends associated with many bands throughout Japan and one of these, Yutaka Nishida, suggested I write a piece to raise money to help those affected by the disaster. I was immediately attracted by the idea and have arranged Cantilena (a brass band piece recently commissioned by the Grenland International Brass Festival, Norway) for wind band, giving it a new title to honour my friends in the Land of the Rising Sun. I will be donating royalties from this piece to the Japanese Red Cross Society Emergency Relief Fund and am delighted to say that my distributors, De Haske, who will generously also donate all net profits from sales of this piece, have pledged a substantial advance payment to the Red Cross so that what little help this project generates can be immediate. It is my sincere wish that this 'Band Aid' project will allow wind bands around the world support the people of Japan, where bands are a way of life for many, in this difficult time.- Philip SparkeDuration: 4:30

£104.99The Loco-Motion (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Goffin & King - Miura, Hideaki
The Loco-motion was the hippest dance routine to hit the clubs in the 1960's. In contrast to many songwriters who write songs after a trend has taken off, singer/songwriter partners and couple Gerry Goffin and Carole King wrote the song that kicked off the entire dance song craze. Little Eva was the first of several artists to reach the top of the US charts with this hit in 1962. Let your band rise to new heights with Hideaki Miura's funky arrangement!Duration: 3:45
