£58.00Flying Away
Composed with thoughts of being able to fly like a bird to see loved ones and friends, this lyrical composition features soaring melodic lines and intertwined countermelodies. Delicate percussion helps to accentuate the emotional moments while developing those players' expressive abilities. A brief faster section contrasts with the initial lyrical theme before a return to the soaring, bird-like moments from the beginning. A moving and beautiful tribute to friends everywhere, this ballad is a great reflective moment for any concert or contest.

£58.00American Visions
Composed to embody the sense of American vigor and patriotism, this fast-paced and energetic fanfare, concert opener or contest selection features rousing brass fanfares, lively woodwind motives, and driving percussion. Using a simple motive that alternates between duple and triplet rhythms, this is a great selection to use for teaching the difference between the two. A contrasting middle section can be used for developing characteristic warm concert band sounds while a return to the initial material with an additional countermelody can be used for balance and blend development.

£45.99Confluence - Jonathan McBride
"Confluence" conveys the majesty and power of converging rivers while using just the first six notes taught in most band methods. Bringing together two distinct melodic ideas over powerful harmonic rhythms, "Confluence" is a mature-sounding work that is very accessible for your beginning band. The flowing middle section gives each instrument group a chance to shine before both themes return for a final, mighty "Confluence."

£74.99Invictus - King
A ponderous and dramatic march from the "King" of all march composers! Composed for King's friend Merle Evans, bandmaster for the Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus, "Invictus" (which means "unconquerable") lives up to its title! After a ponderous minor-key first section featuring low brass and woodwinds, the second features an exciting "circusy" sound. The trio is followed by a return to the minor key, and ends with a rock-solid final section. An excellent choice for more advanced high school, college, and adult bands, "Invictus" will impress audiences and engage performers from top to bottom!

£76.99Yellow River
The little known English group Christie became famous overnight in 1970 when they released the record Yellow River. Yellow River is a Vietnam era song (a protest against the Vietnam War) and describes the wish of a soldier at the front to return home. Band leader, singer and composer Jeff Christie initially wrote the song for The Tremoloes, but as the group were uncertain about it he decided to record it himself. The result was a number one hit in over 25 countries! The catchy melody and beat were reason enough for Stefan Schwalgin to create this arrangement for concert band.
