In Concerto d?Amore, a maestoso opening is followed by a quick and energetic movement that leads to a magnificent adagio.

185. Consolation - de Haan, Jan
Price: £32.95
was composed by Georg Neumark in about 1641 and was subtitled ?Trostlied? literally meaning consolation song. Songbooks at the time showed the popularity of this song and it is still well-known today partly due to Johann Sebastian Bach?s use of the melody for one of his own chorals. In Jan de Haan?s arrangement the choral is heard twice, once, alternating with the original motif from the introduction and a second time, without interruption, reflecting the composer?s original intention ? a song of consolation.
186. Constellation - Moren, Bertrand
Price: £36.95
This easy concert march can be divided into two parts. The first part, which is rhythmical, beautifully contrasts with the second part, which is lyrical. Each section of the band has its turn in this concertmarch, which, in spite of its easy level of difficulty, deserves the designation ?five-star piece.?
187. Contrasten - de Haan, Jan
Price: £51.95
The source of inspiration for the composer was the nuclear disaster in Chernobyl in Russia. The first movement Ostinato expresses desperation, helplessness, fear and anger. The themes from the first movement are further exposed in the second movement Fantasia which has a spectacular finale. In 1989 this composition was the test-piece for the finals in the fourth section of the National Brassband Championships of Great Britain.

Price: £46.95

This extremely rhythmical piece is built upon three themes which, after being introduced in turn, finally converge into the triumphal finale of the work. This scintillating workwill be a definite enrichment to the repertoire of your concert band.
190. Conzensus - Van der Roost, Jan
Price: £39.45
This stately concert opener was originally written by Jan Van der Roost for a special event in which six respected wind orchestras (two Belgian and four Dutch) of different composition (two symphonic bands, two fanfare bands and two brass bands) were featured during six concerts. Each evening brought forth a performance by a symphonic band, a fanfare, and brass band, so that the audience could experience all three types of ensembles. This was indeed an original concept. The name, ConZEnSus, comes from a combination of the words, ?Concert Cyclus? (concert series) and ?zes? (Dutch for ?six?). This leads to a new word, which refers to ?consensus?. The general tenor of the cycle is thus immediately indicated. The richness of color of the various ensembles is revealed through an open and friendly atmosphere. During all six concerts (over a span of three years), ConZEnSus functioned as a permanent opening number for each orchestra. Thus the same musical story was portrayed in three different packages.
