£110.00Fiesta (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Curtis, Matthew - Noble, Paul
Despite its Spanish title, the concert overture Fiesta is really Italian, recalling a festival that I saw several times as a child in the late 1960s while holidaying in a village at the southern tip of the bay of Naples. The date is August 15, the occasion the feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, celebrated with colourful processions and ritual (some, one imagines, pre-Christian in origin), all rounded off with brass bands and home-made fireworks. - Matthew Curtis. Fiesta was originally written for the orchestra of St. Paul's School in London, It has had performances in London's Queen Elizabeth Hall and the Royal Festival Hall where it opened a live broadcast concert in the BBC's International Festival of Light Music, and has made intermittent appearances on the radio ever since. This arrangement for Wind Band will make an excellent festival opener for accomplished bands and is a sure crowd pleaser with its dynamic flare and energy.

£56.00Castlebay
This fresh new setting of two traditional Scottish folk songs, Will Ye No Come Back Again and Keel Row, was written in honor of its namesake, the Scottish village Castlebay. Composer Gene Milford has crafted a well-scored offering for contest/festival performance that is reminiscent of English-style band pieces. After the striking opening, the piece moves to the more fiddle-like Keel Row in a lilting 6/8. All of the sections of the ensemble get to shine and the band will sound formidable with this piece.

£134.99Dionysos (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Doss, Thomas
This work is based on the story of Dionysus, the god of wine. It depicts village life in the valley of Mount Olympus. A fight disturbs cheerful dancing at the wine festival and the music becomes increasingly dominated by the main theme that depicts Dionysus himself. This impressive programmatic work is suitable for concerts or contests, and offers challenges throughout the music.Duration: 8.30
