£69.99Fanitullen - Ole Olsen
Fanitullen is a lively, beautiful 'Sl?tt', i.e. an old Norwegian melody which is played on a traditional 'Hardingfele' (Hardanger fiddle).Because of its violent rhythm and exciting character, playing a Fanitullen for a long time was considered improper. It was believed that a person playing this melody would come under the influence of the devil. Therefore, Fanitullen could be regarded as a kind of Rock'n Roll from the 18th century.Tom Brevik's adaptation is based on a composition for piano by Ole Olsen (1850-1927)

£124.99Resurgence - Philip Sparke
Resurgence was commissioned by Nishiusuki Kyoiku Shinko Rengokai to celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2023. The commissioners are a non-profit organization for educational promotion in Japan and have founded a concert band, who gave the premiere at their anniversary concert. The piece opens with a flourish which leads to a martial theme in the brass, but this quickly subsides to introduce a chorale in the lower brass. After reaching a climax, the work slowly builds to the main vivo section. Here the opening fanfare is repeated, but instead leads to a dance-like tune in the clarinets. This is taken up by the full band and develops until the saxes change key with a legato melody. Following a repeat on trumpet, the chorale from the introduction briefly reappears to herald a recapitulation, which drives to a short coda, where hints of the opening martial theme bring the work to a triumphal close.
