Arr. Masato Myokoin. Here is your chance for some audience participation within your concert program. The big Summer ‘hit’ of 1995 was the Bayside Boys with their version of a modern Spanish song. Can you remember the moves? If so, why not demonstrate them and invite your audience to join in with this scintillating arrangement. Guaranteed to bring the house down! / Niveau : 4 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Ride 'em Cowboy! Here's a high-energy medley of western favorites for the intermediate full or string orchestra. Favorite themes included are The Magnificent Seven Hang 'Em High and The Good The Bad and the Ugly. This spirited arrangement will bring the crowd to their feet! (2:50)

This short opera (duration of 50 minutes) aptly designed for children to perform with modest resources is a version of the familiar tale though with certain adaptations. Cinderella is an au pair girl who arrives on the scene bytrain and there are three ugly sisters who get their just deserts in marriage to the appalling leaders of the armed forces. Writing for children in the Orkney Islands Davies has also included some local references: these can bechanged to suit other times and places. Musically the piece is a bright sequence of little songs choruses dialogue scenes and dances probably best suited to children between the ages of eight and twelve though the parts of theugly sisters can usefully be taken by boys with broken voices.This is a special item which is made to order. Please e-mail our Mail Order Department for further information.

Feature the section that ?delivers the energy? in this great new arrangement by James Curnow. Based on a French folk song that tells a story about three young drummer boys the music uses imitation question and answer and stylistic rhythmic figures to challenge these proud musicians.While featuring the Percussion section there are also great parts for everyone else so the entire group will stay engaged and productive in rehearsal.Spirited!

Par JOHNSON TIMOTHY. Jolly Old Saint Nicholas gets dressed up in his yuletide best, and welcomes good girls and boys to make their Christmas wishes. Every section gets their chance at this beloved carol as the melody line moves to each in turn, delighting with its happy feel. This is a chance for all to shine! / Niveau : 1 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Concert Band

Recorded by the Beach Boys this enjoyable swing tune certainly has that surfer sound and will add a nice touch for the Christmas season. Eric Osterling's arrangement is nicely scored with the melody traded between the woodwinds and brass.
