Arr. Philip Sparke. Par MERCURY FREDDIE. Bohemian Rhapsody est souvent mentionné comme le titre le plus important dans l‘histoire du Rock. Écrite par Freddie Mercury, cette chanson défie toutes les normes jusque-là respectées. Elle se compose de six sections bien distinctes: introduction, ballade, solo de guitare, parties opéra et hard rock ainsi qu’un finale. L’arrangement pour orchestre d’harmonie de Philip Sparke reste conforme à la version originale. Succès garanti! / Niveau : 4 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Frede?s Theme est une œuvre riche en contrastes rythmiques et sonores qui enthousiasmera vos auditeurs. Les motifs constituent une dynamique fluide qui lie et coordonne le dialogue entre les différentes sections instrumentales.

Par HODGES STEVE. Upon completion of an activity, an event, or other meaningful experiences, there is a time for reflection for what has been accomplished and what is to follow. This lyrical piece features a memorable melody that is presented by all sections of the band. These reflective presentations lead into a slightly faster minor section indicating the anticipation of plans for the future. The final presentation of the melody indicates a positive feeling of accomplishment and features a moving countermelody by the woodwinds leading to a quiet, contemplative ending. Check out Journey's End, composed by Steve Hodges. (2:48) / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band

As performed by Queen-Emmené par le charismatique Freddie Mercury le groupe Queen a marqué et marquera encore les temps forts du sport. We Are the Champions connaît un immense succès dès sa sortie en 1977. Aujourd?hui on ne compte plus le nombre de références à ce titre dans les championnats sportifs mais également au cinéma à la télévision dans des spots publicitaires etc. Freddie Mercury voulait écrire un hymne rock un hymne qui survivrait au temps et aux modes et il a réussi.

As recorded by QUEEN-Freddie Mercury avoua avoir composé Crazy Little Thing Called Love alors qu?il prenait son bain dans un hôtel à Munich. Cela ne lui prit que 5 minutes pour réaliser les partitions de chaque instrument et le texte. Le génie cela ne s?explique décidément pas... La chanson écrite dans un style très rockabilly et chantée à la manière d'Elvis Presley off rira au groupe son premier n° 1 aux États-Unis.

Will Smith's blockbuster film has a catchy funky tune that everybody knows. Don't worry about rehearsing this one much - it's easy repetitive and designed for nothing but fun.

Par JACOB GORDON. Of all of Gordon Jacob's major contributions to the British wind band repertoire, the William Byrd Suite (written in 1923) stands as his most-often programmed work. Though originally based on six movements from William Byrd's Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, this setting for developing band incorporates two contrasting movements including 'The Earle of Oxford's Marche' and 'Wolsey's Wilde.' Like Jacob's wind band work, the music is not a mere transcription from the original keyboard collection, but rather stylized with his own inventive musical spirit for modern concert band. A wealth of material here that opens doors to teachable moments as musical textures---dynamic contrasts, articulations, scoring options---are continually changing. Bravo!

for Solo Trumpet Winds and Percussion-The word nexus is defined as a tie or link between people and events. Nexus for solo trumpet and band includes several links between composer James Curnow and educator Alfred Watkins to whom the work is dedicated. A well-known theme (particularly to Mr. Watkins' students) is drawn upon as the piece utilizes two primary musical settings. An energetic and agile scherzo appears in the beginning and again at the end and is contrasted with an expressive Ballad theme. The soloist at the premiere (and on the recording) is Christopher Watkins Alfred's son! This is a well-crafted and rewarding work for soloist and band alike. Dur: 6:00

A Concert Overture for Winds-Alfred Reed (1921-2005) was one of America's most prolific and frequently performed composers. The Hounds of Spring was composed in 1980 and was inspired by the poem ?Atalanta in Calydon? by Algernon Charles Swinburne. In this concert overture Reed captures the elements of youthful exuberance and tenderness of love expressed in the poem. Remaining true in form and intent to the original Robert Longfield has masterfully shortened and adapted this work for younger bands.
