£22.50Excerpts from Finale From Symphony No.4 (Brass Band - Score only) - Tchaikovsky, Peter Ilyich - Gordon, William
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky wrote his fourth symphony in 1877 and 1878. It was first performed in the latter year conducted by Nikolai Rubenstein. Despite initial critical reaction, the symphony has become a staple of the orchestral repertoire and is one of the most frequently performed late 19th century symphonies. In the exciting finale, Tchaikovsky incorporates a famous Russian folk song, 'In the field stood a birch tree' as one of its themes.

£45.00Symphony No.1, Finale from (Brass Band - Score and Parts) - Rachmaninoff, Sergei - Littlemore, Phillip
Rachmaninov composed his First Symphony in 1895, at the age of just 22 years. It received its first performance on March 27, 1897, at a Russian Symphony Society concert in St. Petersburg with Alexander Glazunov conducting. The premiere was not well-received, and Rachmaninov himself blamed Glazunov for a lacklustre approach for beating time rather than finding the music. Some contemporary reports even suggested that Glazunov was inebriated when he took to the stage! Despite the disappointment of the premiere performance, Rachmaninov never destroyed the score but left it behind when he left Russia to settle in the West, eventually it was given up for lost. After the composer's death, a two-piano transcription of the symphony surfaced in Moscow, followed by a set of orchestral parts at the conservatory in Saint Petersburg. In March 1945, the symphony was performed in Moscow for the first time since its 1897 premiere. It was a grand success, and this led to a new and more enthusiastic evaluation of the symphony. In March 1948 it received a similarly successful American premiere and the work proceeded to establish itself in the general repertory. The final movement (Allegro con fuoco) is colourful and grand but not without its darkly contrasting, menacing episodes that intensifies its malevolence. It is a work overflowing with ideas demonstrating a strong, highly individual, and self-assured young talent. Duration: 5:40

£45.00Toccata (from Symphony No.8) (Brass Band - Score and Parts) - Vaughan Williams, Ralph - Littlemore, Phillip
Ralph Vaughan Williams' Symphony in D minor (his eighth) was composed in 1956, when he was in his 84th year. It is noticeably different from its predecessors in its diminutive scale and comparatively short length. However, the symphony is scored for an unusually large percussion ensemble including vibraphone, xylophone, tubular bells, glockenspiel, tuned gongs and celeste. In the Toccata, the fourth and final movement, Vaughan Williams uses the enlarged percussion forces extensively - the eight symphony is therefore in some ways a highly imaginative work, perhaps even an experimental one.. This brass band transcription tries to remain as true to the original percussion writing as possible, but with the omission of the tuned gongs and celeste--for obvious practical performance reasons.

£33.64Classical Concert! (Brass Band) Various arr. Alex Scaife McGee
Classical Concert! by Alex Scaife McGee is a high-energy concert medley that celebrates the enduring appeal of the classical canon while paying tribute to the legendary Harold Walters, whose Instant Concert and Hootenanny set the standard for this exciting style of programming. Drawing on some of the most recognisable themes in classical music, this arrangement weaves familiar melodies into a fast-paced, audience-pleasing showcase. The journey begins with the unmistakable excitement of Rossini's William Tell Overture, flowing seamlessly into Bizet's Carmen Overture. The intensity builds with Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King before lifting into the brightness of Vivaldi's Spring. Momentum continues through a thrilling sequence featuring Beethoven's Ode to Joy from Symphony No. 9, the dramatic fate theme from Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5, and the majestic power of Saint-Saens's Organ Symphony. A triumphant statement from Handel's Hallelujah Chorus sets the stage for rapid-fire appearances by Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 3 and Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake. The medley concludes with two crowd-favorite finales: Rossini's The Barber of Seville and the rousing, cannon-ready excitement of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. Ideal for concerts, entertainment contests, and audience outreach, Classical Concert! delivers non-stop excitement, instant recognition, and a joyful celebration of classical music at its most entertaining.
