£160.00Franarormen (Optional Piano Solo with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Aagaard-Nilsen, Torstein
In 1911, the Australian pianist and composer (and friend of Edvard Grieg), Percy Grainger (1882-1961) went on a tour in Norway. He performed more than forty concerts over a few months. Fifty years later, in 2011, The Royal Norwegian Marine Band made a concert project called "Percy Grainger Revisited Tour". "Franarormen" is a worm or a dragon as described in norse medieval ballads. I have used four different tunes from the region Telemark were Fr?narormen is mentioned in the text. The piece is a musical reflection - not at all as drammatic as the text. It is like a picture of an old fairytale and a dwell on the sound of ancient songs. The piece can be performed without the piano part. Instructions to be found in the percussion parts. - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen

£145.00Circius (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Aagaard-Nilsen, Torstein
The title refers to a description of the wind of the north made by Olaus Magnus who lived in the 16th century. He drew maps describing people, animals, weather, winds, sea monsters etc. The map Carta Marina was unprecise, but the best they had. But he never visited the places himself. In the map over northern parts of Norway, he describes the wind "Circius" as the worst of all winds. The fast sections refers to the wind. In the middle section I borrow a folksong-like tune by Catharinus Elling (1858-1942). The text by Kristoffer Janson, tells about fishermen in small open boats. When they faced the force of nature they could do nothing but put their lives in the hand of God. - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen

If using a vocalist, the words are sung as lyrics to the instrumental solo melodies. In Flanders Fields is a perfect selection for any patriotic concert.

£36.95Golden Lullaby (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob
This lyrical little piece started life as a song on the subject of gold but I wanted to see if it would stand alone as an instrumental piece. The gentle lilt of the melody suggests a lullaby although the texture of the piece builds in an un-lullaby-like fashion towards the end. There is a little 'white-note' dissonance but it is basically traditional in its language. Duration: 3.40

£44.95Grandeur and Glory (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob
Every now and again I feel the impulse to return to my ceremonial background from my time in the RAF. Grandeur and Glory is one of those pieces that suits those occasions when pomp and circumstance is required. It starts and ends with a slow-building fanfare in the style of Handel's Zadok the Priest. These sections flank a jaunty tune which is flavoured by a few lateral harmonic twists. - Rob Wiffin. Duration: 3.15
