£84.99Os Justi - Anton Bruckner
Anton Bruckner is probably best known today as a symphonist however he was also a significant composer of religious works, motets and masses, and the composer of the great Te Deum. These choral works portray equally as much of Anton Bruckner's power as his symphonies. With his unique gift for unlocking the secret and beauty of choir singing he was a true master in this genre. This arrangement for concert band by Thomas Doss retains the character and homogeneity of the original choral work and is a stunning addition to the concert band repertoire.

£53.50Four Pictures - Árpád Balázs
The teachers under whom rpd Balzs (b.1937) studied composition - Ferenc Farkas, Aram Khachaturian and Goffredo Petrassi - each independently formed the opinion that with his lyrical gift rpd Balzs's true creative field would be that of choral music and wind ensembles. Their early predictions are borne out by the roughly two hundred and fifty works for choir and almost twenty for wind orchestra that the composer has since produced. It is interesting that in the suite entitled Ngy kp (Four pictures) the stylistic features of these two related musical fields are united. In it the wind instruments sing! It was not by chance that the expansive second movement was given the title Cantilena, while the slightly livelier but just as lyrical third movement was entitled Arietta. The opening movement of the work is a stridently jolly, energetic Indul (March), but not one of the rigidly military kind: the 6/8 rhythm contributes to its light-hearted character. This music is avowedly akin to the ballet music of Prokofiev. This choice series of four character pieces is crowned by Jtk (Play) in which conveying the effect of the mixture of lines moving in parallel and then colliding with each other may be more technically demanding, but is well worth the effort!
