The ultimate full score medley of beautiful melodies from the Studio Ghibli film Princess Mononoke (1997, dir. Hayao Miyazaki), arranged for concert band in the series: New Sounds in Brass (NSB). Grade 3; Duration: approx.8'50; Composed by Joe Hisaishi; Arranged by Takashi Hoshide. Arranger Takashi Hoshide says, I have selected beautiful melodies from the soundtrack of 'Princess Mononoke' (1997, directed by Hayao Miyazaki) and arranged them into a medley. What can be said about these songs as a whole is that they combine a grand continental scale with the delicacy that reflects Japanese emotions. Since there are no upbeat songs in this selection, I had to work hard on the arrangement, but this allowed for creating contrasts and transitions between each scene in the performance. 'Ashitaka Sekki (English title: The Legend of Ashitaka)' - 'Sekki' means a story that is not recorded but passed down orally. In this anime, this can be considered a sub-main theme. The song starts with a feeling that the story is about to begin and, once the theme kicks in, aim for a grand performance to convey its scale. 'Encounter' - This is the music that plays during the scene where the protagonist Ashitaka meets San. Interestingly, the motif of the main theme 'Princess Mononoke' is used in this melody. Here, let's pursue the shifts in the timbre of individual phrases, creating a beautiful and aesthetic soundscape. 'Princess Mononoke' - This is the main title of the anime. The melody line is carried by horns and trumpets.

Wind Quintet

SKU: FG.55011-509-5

Composed by Kimmo Hakola. Parts. Fennica Gehrman #55011-509-5. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.55011-509-5).

ISBN 9790550115095.

Kimm o Hakola's Wind Quintet op. 96 (2017) was commissioned by the Kimito Island Music Festival. The composer sees that making the ensemble ultimately breathe and express itself as an organic, coherent subject should be the aim in composing for wind quintet. The normal chamber-music configuration is not a sufficient basis for me in composing a wind quintet: the instruments have to be compressed, reduced, even crushed together so that, in pairs and different combinations, they produce new, viable audio units. Collision often generates something new. Kimmo Hakola has gone through a number of styles and influences in his career as a composer, his idiom expanding at times to embrace Romanticism, Orientalism and klezmer. He has attained international recognition with an output that spans various genres from intimate solo works to full-length operas such as La Fenice (2011) commissioned by the Savonlinna Opera Festival. Many of his works are expansive and epic: his Piano Concerto (1996), for instance, clocks in at 55 minutes. Hakola says that he sees music as drama. His dramas explore almost Shakespearean extremes, from moments of raging sound and fury and violent battles to quiet moments of meditation and heart-rending monologues.

Solo euphonium

SKU: P2.80149

Composed by James Grant. Solo music, 20th century. Published by Potenza Music (P2.80149).

Composer James Grant says, Twenty years after composing the Three Furies for Solo Tuba, now an iconic work in the tuba repertoire, I have crafted the Three More Furies - yet another eccentric, challenging, and rewarding triptych of unaccompanied works for those players who wish to strut their stuff with attitude, panache, and that certain je ne sais quoi that separates the ardent enthusiast from the uncontrollable maniac. Composed in versions for both tuba and euphonium, the Three More Furies were commissioned by a consortium of 28 tubists and euphoniumists as part of my ongoing Songs Without words Project in collaboration with Potenza Music. The Three More Furies are marked 'Exuberant', 'Expressive, lyrical ebb and flow' and 'Doggedly'. They were premiered at ITEC 2014 by tubist David Zerkel, Professor of Tuba and Euphonium at the University of Georgia..
