£74.95Celebration Prelude (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Johnson, Stuart
Celebration Prelude opens with a 30 bar fanfare for brass and percussion and makes this Prelude ideal for a ceremonial or formal occasion, but the piece is equally suitable as a concert-opener. The fanfare theme is then developed in the woodwinds and taken up by the whole wind band, appearing in different guises and with different counter-melodies. Finally, the opening is restated in a much shorter form by the whole band playing fortissimo.

£174.99Toccata Festiva (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Van der Roost, Jan
Toccata Festiva was commissioned in 1994 by the Dutch Brass Band Championships. The wind band version was made a year later by the composer himself. Historically speaking, the toccata is considered to be one of the first independent instrumental forms for keyboard instruments. Originally the toccata was typically more or less improvised, later this musical form was given a more regulated structure. Both elements are used in the Toccata Festiva: on the one hand the different themes are developed freely, on the other, the piece has an orderly structure. It is in a three part form (quick-slow-quick) and includes both strong rhythmical figures and broad melodic lines. Part of the composition is written in a more or less archaic tone idiom, referring to the period from which the toccata form originates (16th century).Duration: 13:30

£154.99Alternances (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Waignein, Andre
In 1984 the Corciano (Italy) Tourist Authority initiated a composition competition for wind band. For this event Andre Waignein composed "Alternances for Symphonic Band", a piece which won him the first prize in the competition. The opening of the work is based on a very tonal foundation. The English horn (or alto saxophone) introduces a rich and warm theme which is immediately taken up by the whole orchestra in a grandiose manner. The subsequent development shows off all the elements of the orchestra to the full. In the second movement, the English horn (or alto saxophone) comes to the fore again. A harmonic change gradually takes us back to the allegro of the first movement. The musical development is here dominated by exuberance, virtuosity and rhythm.Duration: 12:30
