Andante and Allegro - Sandy Feldstein
Written in two movements, this composition will make your young performers sound mature. The first movement is lyrical, contrasted by a rhythmic second movement. Although it is very easy to play (it uses only concert B-flat to A-flat), Andante and Allegro fully explores the sonorities of the young band. (Grade 1---Correlates with Alfred's Basic Band Method, Book 1, Unit 7)

£71.50Poltergeist - John Prescott
Spooky sound effects abound in this rollicking work which depicts a familys encounter with a poltergeist in their home. Through foot stomping, percussion effects, instrument key and valve clicking, and other added effects such as ghostly laughter, the band creates a scary yet mischievous environment for the family. As the constantly-increasing tempo at the end of the work suggests, the family is eventually chased from their own house by the relentless and playful poltergeist. Create even more fun by encouraging your students to create their own special effects for an even spookier atmosphere.

£112.20Prelude for You - Ralf Uhl
A powerful fanfare leads towards a quiet passage with a very rhythmical motif that ends in a more lyrical central part. Then we have a trumpet solo accompanied by the soft woodwind sound and gradually all other instruments join in. A broad crescendo leads again to the already known swinging tune. The fanfare motif is the conclusion of this solemn piece

£435.40Symphony No 1 for Wind Band - Solitude Standing - Stig Nordhagen
The two movements in this symphony have quite similar structure and length, and this is no coincidence. As a composer, I try to create two musical stories that comes from the same starting point and thought, but they sound and feel different. Music often describes something you cant say in words. This composer stands in the middle of the symphony, here personalized as trombone solo (or euphonium) and tries "Solitude Standing" to make a bridge between the two parts. - Stig Nordhagen -
