Six miniatures based on animals from the Japanese 'Junishi'. Par SPARKE PHILIP. Zodiac Dances est une commande de l’Izumiotsu City Band d’Osaka, Japon, pour leur 50e anniversaire. Sparke avait déjà composé l’oeuvre Prelude to a Celebration pour cette formation auparavant, et il désirait personnaliser ce nouveau morceau pour refléter l’histoire de l’ensemble. Il a décidé d’écrire six danses miniatures basées sur les six décennies suivant la création de l’orchestre en les mettant en lien avec les signes équivalant à ces années dans le « Junichi » japonais. Cette composition fera appel à toutes vos connaissances musicales. Une interprétation énergique et mélodique, les phrasés, le côté technique et le final spectaculaire en font une oeuvreidéale pour vos concours ou concerts ! / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Little Suite for Orchestra No. 1: Op 53. Par ARNOLD MALCOLM. Malcolm Arnold is one Britain’s best-loved composers. In 1948 he composed a very short suite for the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain - entitled simply To Youth. Seven years later he took To Youth and made some fairly major revisions, including a complete new movement, and the Little Suite for Orchestra was born. The Little Suite for Orchestra follows a very similar pattern to the later suites for brass band, starting with a bold, strident Prelude, which strangely ends quietly before a lovely, lilting, Dance composed in 3/8 time. Finally a rollicking and militaristic March brings the suite to a conclusion. This arrangement for brass band by Robin Norman is sure tobecome a classic in the brass band repertoire. / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Date parution : 1905-06-30/ Répertoire / Brass Band

Par GRIEG EDVARD. Grieg Holberg Suite (From Holberg\'s Time) Op.40 (Full Score) Suite in the Olden Style for String Orchestra To celebrate the 200th birthday of the playwright Ludvig Holberg (1684-1754), a statue was erected in his honour in 1884. Edvard Grieg, who, like Holberg, was born in Bergen, was commissioned to write an open-air cantata for the ceremony. But he also refers to Holberg in his instrumental music. The result was a ?powdered wig piece? (as Grieg wrote to his publisher) that hearkens back to Holberg?s era ? a historicising suite of baroque dances for piano, ranging from an exhilarating prelude and several dance numbers to a Bachian ?air? and an impetuous ?rigaudon?. Later Grieg arranged his ?Suite in the Olden Style? for string orchestra. This version became one of his most popular compositions. For our new scholarly-critical edition Christoph Rinne-Schroeder has meticulously examined the original print and compared it with previously neglected performance material annotated by Grieg himself. - New Urtext edition of this popular work for string orchestra - Based on previously neglected sources by Grieg himself - String parts in a practical large format (25.5 cm x 32.5 cm) / Date parution : 2022-07-30/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

Par CURNOW JAMES. This is sure to be one of those orchestral transcriptions that finds a permanent place in the realm of concert band literature. Holst’s ability to develop and explore folk melodies with rich, lyrical treatment is fully realised in this sterling example of the final phase of this remarkable composer’s career. The smooth and peaceful declivities of the Prelude, the expressive Cantabile of the Air, and the sprightly 6/8 Dance combine to give your audience and your band a truly enriching experience. / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
