£140.80Introduction, Theme and Variations - Johann Wenzel Kalliwoda
Johann Wenzeslaus Calliwoda composed Introduction, Theme and Variations opus 128 in 1844, and he dedicated this piece to the virtusoso contemporary Carl Brmann.. This solo work contains a lot of recognizable influences from German early Romanticism. Long dreamy melody lines and jagged character changes are followed through numerous variations. It seems as so the composer wants to show the listener what the absloute technical capabilities of the clarinet are.

£116.40A Jazz Flavour - Afonso Alves
This is a very good combination of jazzy melodies and rhythms. Starting with some quartet solo work, the first movement introduces the theme that gradually gets more powerful. Presented by the woodwinds, a beautiful melody in slow rock dominates the whole second movement. The third movement is an explosion of rhythm and emotion powered by the brass section.

£61.00Ich Weiss ein Httlein
This song has three stanzas and describes the modest though grateful family life of the infant Jesus with his parents Mary and Joseph. The choral melody is four-part and can be performed harmoniously by a quartet. The score has however been arranged for large orchestra. So, it is possible to realize the most varied sound combinations between woodwind and brass groups, even without singing. All percussion instruments can be used 'ad libitum'. The text can be sung as four-part choir singing or by one solo voice with accompaniment of winds. A simple piano score has been added for singing rehearsals or small scale performances.

£88.00Campinos Scalabitanos - Samuel Pascoal
Horses and bulls have transformed the landscape and culture of Ribatejo (Portugal) and created the natural character of the Campino, guardian of the flatlands and the animals that roam. It is, no doubt, one of the most typical characteristics of Santarem, Ribatejo. Campinos Scalabitanos is a pasodoble which pays a tribute to this tradition. It starts with impressive and colourful chords suggesting the bulls and then comes a gentle melody with a totally different character. A Campino on horseback watches the cattle and suddenly a bull runs away, but the Campino drives it back to the herd. The paso doble concludes with a Portuguese march with taurine music characteristics turning Campinos Scalabitanos into typical Portuguese bullfighting music.

£135.50Dis-TENSIONS-diS - Carlos Pellicer
The title 'Dis-TENSIONS-diS' is a game (or pun) with the words tension and distension (relaxation). The work stems from a 'Leitmotiv' presented at the beginning of the work by the warm sound of the bassoon. So from this melody draws all small parts for maximum re-use like elements of cohesion in different parts of the work. Hence the inevitable game of 'tension and relaxation' that occurs from such re-use of the same subject, but with a multitude of possible variations. Dis-TENSIONS-diS received a Mencion de Honor at the Italian Concorso Internazionale di Composizione originale per banda 2009.

£110.40Pomp and Circumstance no. 2 - Edward Elgar
Sir Edward Elgar wrote his Pomp and Circumstance March no. 2 in 1901 and dedicated it to the composer Granville Bantock. Although this second march is less known than the first, it is not less beautiful. A loud call for attention by the brass section is followed by a nice staccato theme with the woodwinds, completed by different instruments in a construction leading to the trio. This trio in major key contains a simple melody written in thirds played respectively by the woodwinds and the brass. The work ends with a short but powerful coda.
