£24.95COUNTDOWN (To Eternity?) (Prestige Concert Band Extra Score) - Short, Michael
Extra Score Phase 1 (Mystery) - the fascination of nuclear power; the strangeness of its invisible radiation and enormous unleashed energy which may be beneficial to the human race, but which can also cause violence of colossal magnitude. Phase 2 (Imaginations) - Anxiety begins and nervous doubts increase as thoughts intrude of what might happen if things went wrong: warfare, mechanical failure, uncontrolled fission, explosion, melt-down, firestorms, fallout, burns, contamination, disease, mutation, the desolation of a nuclear winter. Phase 3 (Reality) - Time is ticking on. We accept the benefits of nuclear power, tinged with unease and incomprehension. The piece ends with doubt and uncertainty - only time will tell if we are right or wrong. Performance time 16'56" (Recorded on QPRM115D GREAT BRITISH MUSIC FOR WIND BAND, Western Band of the Royal Air Force)

£94.95GAELFORCE (Concert Band) - Graham, Peter
Gaelforce follows in Cry of the Celts style, and using three traditional folk tunes exploits the colour and variety of the modern wind band. Firstly, the slip jig, The Rocky Road to Dublin features the woodwind section. The Minstrel Boy, and the final reel, Tossing the Feathers, have both recently enjoyed renewed popularity courtesy of The Corrs. The Minstrel Boy here features the solo flugel horn in contrast with woodwind choir and mellow voices, while Tossing the Feathers is something of a tour de force for drums, woodwind, and eventually the whole band.
