£116.40Waters Deep and Wide - Eric Wetherell
England boasts an enormous treasure of folksongs, many of those being preserved and listed thanks to the efforts of Cecil Sharp (1859-1924). The composers Ralph Vaughan-Williams and Percy Grainger were very keen on those folksongs and used many of them in several of their wind band compositions. Eric Wheterell resumed this idea. His composition is based on the Somerset folksong 'Waly, Waly' which provides the main theme. Two countermelodies build the two other themes.

£78.20Kunstler Quadrille - Johann Strauss Jr.
Everybody knows that waltzes, marches and polkas were extremely popular in Vienna in the 19th century. But at least as popular was the quadrille which unfortunately has fallen into oblivion nowadays. It has its origins in the French dance music which explains the typical six part form. It is sheer entertainment and dance music in the shape of a medley. The composer used already existing tunes and could borrow with impunity melodies from contemporary composers.
