£23.50A Brussels Requiem - SCORE ONLY - Bert Appermont
The attacks in Brussels on 22 March 2016 created a shockwave throughout Belgium and the rest of the world. Equally, the attacks in Paris and Nice led to great public indignation, fear and disbelief. What has happened to the western world? Have our cultures grown apart to such an extent that we do not understand each other anymore? Bert Appermont's intention was to voice certain emotions that these acts of terror have caused: particularly fear, grief, anger, and helplessness. He uses the French children's song Au Claire de la Lune as a connecting thread throughout the work. This piece is also about hope and faith in another world, and is meant to pay homage to all victims, resulting in a dignified remembrance. The musical development is presented in four through-composed parts, titled Innocence, In Cold Blood, In Memoriam - We Shall Rise Again and A New Day. This work was commissioned by the Brassband Oberosterreich (Brass Band Upper Austria) to be played at the European Brass Band Championships 2017.

£22.42The Eagle (Cornet Solo with Piano) Liz Lane
The Eagle was commissioned and premiered by Luke Pallister, accompanied by Ruth Webb, at the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester, on 21 May 2019. The work was funded by personal scholarship time awarded by the University of the West of England. The Eagle is inspired by the Indian tawny eagle synonymous with the world renowned International Centre for Birds of Prey, Newent, and in the 50th anniversary year of landing on the moon, the name of the lunar module, 'eagle'. The music broadly depicts an eagle's soaring take-off, flight and landing. Towards the end it pays homage to the iconic space event, with a cornet melody which sets the words of a sign left on the moon by the astronauts: "Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the moon July 1969, A.D. We came in peace for all mankind". Musically, The Eagle emulates aspects of the repeated patterns from Widor's Toccata ('Symphony for Organ No. 5'), conveying a sense of travel through the continuously evolving harmonic progressions. Widor wrote the Toccata for a new type of organ with a vast range of timbres and range of orchestral voicing - hence the 'symphony' title - and a range of often integrated cornet and piano timbres are explored. The music is also influenced by an online recording of Widor himself at the age of 88 performing the Toccata at a much slower speed than has become more widely known, demonstrating grandeur, majesty and power - and perhaps in itself emulating a concept of space and flight.

£33.63Menuet (Brass Band) Ravel arr. Rob Bushnell
Le Tombeau de Couperin (The Grave of Couperin) was written by Maurice Ravel between 1914 and 1917, originally a suite of piece for solo piano. Based on what was considered a traditional Baroque suite, Ravel wanted to pay homage to Baroque French keyboard music, whilst retaining his 20th-century chromaticism, making the work neoclassicist. Each movement is dedicated to the memory of a friend of the composer who died fighting in World War I. Ravel produced an orchestral version in 1919, omitting two of the original six movements. The Menuet was written in memory of Jean Dreyfus; Ravel had recuperated at his home. This arrangement is for the British-style brass band, with alternative parts for horns in F and bass-clef lower brass. A recording of the original composition can be found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnNwEcBTSmk. Duration: Approx. 4 minutes Difficulty Level: 2nd Section + Duration: 4 minutes (depending on tempo and without any cuts) PDF download includes parts and score.
