Somb ras is a work for guitar composed by three related movements that when played, we can see continuity in the different 'climax'. Written in free language, it is inspired in the shadows that are around us when we are for a long time in a room that leads to the street. The cars that cross, the trees and all the things reflected on the walls change depending on the day hours and the movement of the street.

SATB choir with divisi and soprano voice soli, a cappella - Medium Difficult

SKU: PL.0017

Composed by Roland E Martin. Cathedral. Choral, General. Octavo. Paraclete Press #0017. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.0017).

This extended work sets the Martin text (Hail Mary, O Source of Life) from Hildegard von Bingen (12th cent.). Its use of much divisi creates a rich sound that reflects the ecstatic quality of the text. The shape of the long phrases is reminiscent of the motets of Bruckner. There is a lovely soprano duet at the words O dulcissima and the Gloria Patri is set in a fugal style, building to a dynamic climax and followed by a long decrescendo on the final Amen. This moving work is appropriate for Marian feasts and for concerts.

This new concert overture by young composer Aaron Blakely is reminiscent of the great Western movie score genre. It has the bold open intervals of the American sound made famous by Aaron Copland along with a very memorable melody and driving rhythms. The main theme of the piece is contrasted by a lush and lyrical middle section that builds to a wonderful climax before the return of the driving main theme. New Frontiers is a perfect showcase piece for your band to play at contest or festival.

9x12 inches. English-German-French-Dut ch.

This piece attempts to portray atmospheric pictures through music. The opening section evokes the somewhat misty and hazy early morning atmosphere surrounding the ancient monument. When the band reaches its first dynamic climax it is as if the massive boulders are audible, even touchable through the use of minor 3rd chords. The main theme - constructed on the notes CAFBG symbolises the arrangement of the central boulders in the shape of a horseshoe, which forms the focal point of this huge collection of stones. Towards the end of the work you will experience a fantastic effect when five soloists play a five part hymn whilst other members of the band create a specialatmosphere by imitating a choir of monks and druids. A fantastic major new concert work for advanced bands.

Een enorme cirkel van gigantische rechtopstaande stenen staat al zo’n 3500 jaar lang in het zuidwesten van Engeland. In dit werk zijn sfeerbeelden omgezet in muziek. Hoewel er geen concreet verhaal aan ten grondslag ligt en er geenduidelijk scenario is gebruikt, verklankt deze compositie het mysterie en de grootsheid van het eeuwenoude geheimzinnige monument Stonehenge op voortreffelijke wijze.

Im Südwesten Englands steht seit fast 3500 Jahren ein Ring riesiger Steine: Stonehenge. Das gleichnamige Werk von Jan Van der Roost bringt mystische Stimmungen und Bilder rund um die alte Stätte auf musikalische Weise zum Klingen. Das Hauptmotiv aus fünf Tönen zieht sich durch das gesamte Werk und symbolisiert den hufeisenförmigen inneren Ring des riesigen Steinkreises. Später gemahnen fünf Vokalsolisten sowie ein gesungener Druiden- und Mönchs-Chor an Stimmen aus einer fremden Welt. Stonehenges ungelüftetes Geheimnis schlug den Komponisten in seinen Bann und inspirierte ihn zu diesem ebenso unwiderstehlichen Werk, das Tohru Takahashi nun für Blasorchester transkribierte.

Da ns le sud-ouest de l’Angleterre, se dresse, depuis plus de 3 500 ans, un impressionnant cercle de blocs de grès. En dépit de multiples recherches et calculs scientifiques, on ne connaît toujours pas la signification exacte de ce site. Au fil des siècles, de nombreuses suppositions et spéculations ont été avancées quant la fonction de Stonehenge, lieu de cérémonies religieuses, lieu de rituels et d’adoration, mais aucune de ces hypothèses n’a pu être démontrée de façon probante ce jour. Actuellement, on s’accorde penser que Stonehenge est un calendrier géant. La disposition particulière des blocs permet d’observer le lever du soleil ou le coucher de la lune, de prédire lessolstices d’été et d’hiver, de déterminer les positions de la lune travers les diagonales, etc. En résumé, ce mystérieux monument de pierre permet d’observer les changements de saison.Stonehenge est une mise en musique d’images et d’impressions atmosphériques ; un paysage sonore dont la trame ne suit aucun scénario précis, mais dont les images sont réelles.

Kale vi Aho (b. 1949) composed Violin concerto No. 2 in late summer and early autumn 2015 for the Finnish violinist Elina Vahala. Lasting about 32 minutes, the second concerto is a large-scale virtuoso work dominated by the soloist. The strong-featured first movement (Allegro) begins with a fairly short orchestral introduction that is followed by the soloist's first vigorous statement. Around the middle of the movement is a cadenza, and the movement ends with a quick stretta. The soloist dominates the events in the slow second movement (Adagio) even more than it did in the first. The Adagio begins with the same opening motif for the soloist as the first movement, but this time the motif is more lyrical and singing. Having built up to a dramatic climax, it subsides on flageolet notes and finally sounds that are somewhere between musical notes and noise. The third movement (Vivace, leggiero) is by nature dance-like again and lighter than the previous ones. At the end, the tempo accelerates to a wild, virtuosic prestissimo.

Beginning with a build to a nice climax that sets up some of the main thematic material, In a New Light drives forward with a lot of interplay between woodwinds, brass, and percussion. A section of repose follows with interjections of the rhythmic themes ending in an energetic build to the piece's conclusion.

The Way to Heaven was commissioned by the Royal Air Force Music Services. 2015 was the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, which took place between July and October 1940, when the courageous fighter pilots of the Royal Air Force thwarted Hitler's ambitions to launch an invasion on the UK. The Way to Heaven opens with fluttering woodwind figures and brass fanfares, which build to a climax before a change of key introduces a short quotation for the Polish National Anthem - Mazurek Dbrowskiego. This fades and you can hear the signal to scramble and the throaty sounds of the squadrons Merlin engines bursting into life before they line up to take off. This leads to the main thematic material of the work, which depicts the heaven-bound flight of 303 Squadron as it climbs to intercept the incomingMesserschmitt 109s. A brief allusion to the Polish national anthem brings the piece to a triumphant close.

This waltz-style piece features a gentle melody with unique harmonies to create a tranquil and mysterious mood. Perfect for the developing string orchestra, the simple rhythms are limited to mainly half notes and quarter notes, but the beautiful melody and rich countermelodies give the ensemble a mature sound.These rhythm patterns continue calmly but the main melody and the counter melodies move emotionally within the harmonies.The climax of this piece occurs at m. 43, preceded by rising and falling dynamics. Play each phase carefully to build up to the emotional peak, then as the main theme returns at m. 55, the music can be played clearly and with a “risoluto” feeling. Imagine two people dancing under wisteria throughout the piece.

Exper ience the captivating allure of this pop-inspired composition crafted for double-choir and two soloists.

As the piece crescendos to a powerful climax, the unforgettable finale beckons, inviting you to embrace the last four measures repeatedly. Then, revel in the classic fade-out - a rare gem reminiscent of the timeless musical nuances that gracefully taper, a feature less prevalent in today's popular music landscape.

Marked by driving staccato eighth note ostinatos that are freely passed around the ensemble, Toccata keeps you on your toes from start to finish.

Commission ed by the Tutbury Community Band, conductor Malcolm Heywood, this work was first performed on the occasion of the 900th anniversary of the foundation of Tutbury Church. Toccata originally meant 'touch piece' and is particularly associated with keyboard works of the Renaissance and Baroque. Stuart Johnson takes this spirit and transfers it to the concert band as staccato quavers, used as an ostinato against a rising bass theme. Later the accompaniment is transferred to other sections of the band, but the pulse is retained until a central, more lyrical section. A recapitulation of the allegro leads to a stirring climax.

These jazz arrangements of well-known hymns were written for Andrew Earis and choirs of St Martin-in-the-Fields, London for various services and BBC broadcasts from that church. The setting of “Come down, O Love divine” supplies some new harmonic moves to Vaughan Williams' lovely tune “Down Ampney”, gradually adding vocal harmony through the verses, with a short descant section in the final verse. The compound-time arrangement of “God Is Love,” which can also be sung to the supplied words of Charles Wesley's hymn “Love Divine,” again adds more of Todd's iconic jazz harmonies and textures in the vocal parts with each successive verse. The setting of “Let all mortal flesh keep silence” is structured to gradually build layers over the moody piano chords and the pedal harmony. At the end the music builds to a large climax for the text “Lord most high”. The hymns can be performed using the supplied piano part or using the chord symbols above. Double bass may also be used in addition to piano, again following the supplied chord symbols, and parts for optional jazz ensemble are available. Performers of these hymns should feel free to include the congregation or audience in imaginative ways.

A wonderfully dark and moody piece from the pen of Keiron Anderson. Low chords slowly spread out through the whole ensemble as the piece progresses and reaches it’s climax before fading away to a resigned end. Minor keys predominate until the final section.
