£104.50Esprit Du Corps March - John Philip Sousa
Fans and march enthusiasts will be delighted with this wonderfully stylish rediscovered march. At the time this march was written, Sousa was living in Philadelphia and had not yet begun his Marine Band career - but he was an accomplished composer who already had 34 publications to his credit. However, the march was not published for band until after he left the Marine Band and formed his professional band. This march, listed as Opus 45, is a fitting tribute to the great talent of the young John Philip Sousa, and to the esprit de corps of bands everywhere.

£54.99Percussion Production - David Gorham
Young percussionists are featured on this entertaining and powerful work for first-year bands. The percussion parts are energetic and slightly more advanced than the wind parts, keeping everyone completely within their comfort zone of playability. The rhythmic percussion makes the work sound far more advanced than the actual grade level and will be very impressive at first year concerts.

£71.50Full Moon - Joseph Eidson
Full Moon sets a dark and mysterious mood where vampires, werewolves and other unknown figures lurk in the shadows. Emphasizing smooth and lyrical playing, this piece also helps instruct young players how to shape phrases and listen for balance within the overall texture. First heard in the low winds, the melody eventually appears in every section of the band, building to a spine-tingling climax. A spooky reminder to beware the light of the full moon, as you never know what might be waiting in the shadows....

The beautiful song Shenandoah is an early American folk song dating back to at least the early 1800s. Its been known by several different titles, including Oh, Shenandoah and Across the Wide Missouri. Clearly a part of American tradition, it remains one of Americas most enduring and popular folk songs. This arrangement has been carefully arranged for the ability of young players but will also sound great with more experienced ensembles as a warm-up or lyric concert selection.

When Men and Mountains Meet - Scott Watson
Commissioned by the East Stroudsburg Area School District, this work displays the effort and determination it must have taken to establish this community in the Pocono mountains with wall upon wall of rock to be blasted and great masses of earth to be moved. It opens with a broad, somewhat dissonant statement representing the settlers first intimidating encounter with the mountain, followed by a faster, insistent theme as the area is settled and developed. An impressive work for young bands that makes us aware that truly great things are done "when men and mountains meet."

Commissioned by Michael Chula, director of the Prairie River Middle School Eighth Grade band in Merrill, Wisconsin, it is reflective of the energy and joy displayed by the students of that band. The music was composed with the thought that these fine young performers required a piece that they could focus their energy into and that captured their unmistakable innate energy.

£82.50Vampires In The Attic - Joseph Eidson
Vampires in the Attic is a creepy and energetic work for young band that emphasizes musicality and ensemble playing. The slow beginning sets a creepy atmosphere as the dark recesses of the attic are explored. As the pace increases, the trumpet section is featured as if vampires are chased around the attic, ending with the vampires returning to their hiding spots as the opening material is revisited, slowing to a delightfully eerie conclusion.
