Composed by Duncan Druce, Edward Cowie, Michael Ball, Nicholas Marshall, and Peter Racine Fricker. Arranged by John Turner. 20th Century,Classical,Contemporary. Score and part. 44 pages. Forsyth Brothers Ltd #1006899. Published by Forsyth Brothers Ltd (A0.1426085).

Forsyth's Modern Wind Music series contains exciting and challenging, but not unduly difficult, works by talented English composers of current or recent vintage for recital, study or recreation. Each volume includes three works with piano, one unaccompanied piece, and one piece for two or more players of the instrument.

This volume for flute has a natural history slant. Lacerta Agilis by Duncan Druce is a portrait of a sand lizard, Michael Ball's piece takes as its cue the Greek legend of Philomel who was turned into a nightingale to escape the Wrath of Tereus, whilst Edward Cowie's A Lesson For Reed Warblers (for two flutes) is designed for one bird (or flute) to teach the other to sing. The magical solo work in the album is Two Spells by Peter Recine Fricker, and the remaining piece is Nicholas Marshall's rhythmic and jazz-influenced Jump.

Sea Welcome celebrates the power of friendship to overcome personal depression. It was written for Snamhai Saste and the inspirational June Curtin who swims every morning at Spanish Point in the West of Ireland with up to 800 fellow 'happy swimmers'. It opens with a lone voice swimming alone, dancing in the deep peace of the waters, then joined by unknown friends who laugh and love in the waves. It is both beautiful and poignant, hearing the power of the human spirit to heal.

Chamber Orchestra - Level 4 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.924066

Composed by Dominic McGonigal. Contemporary. Score and parts. 26 pages. C8 Music #4633311. Published by C8 Music (A0.924066).

Rhythm Herd is a celebration of rhythmic energy in words and music. Euan Tait's poem harnesses the stampede of whinnying horses, the crackle of the fire, thundering south and gives the singers the power of nature's forces. The four sopranos keep constant pulse passed between the voices as the quavers are herded into chords, melody, phrases and whole movements. Their warm tones are punctuated by riffs on the recorder, building up to an extended obbligato fughetta. Finally, the heart dissolves to ashes, the pulse of the sopranos slows, while the recorder maintains the rhythmic riffs, now in time with the human heart. Rhythm Herd was commissioned by Philomel and first performed by them on 24 November 2018.

Three songs for mixed chorus. Composed by Hermann Grosse-Schware. This edition: choral score. Schott Choral Music. Fairy Land sind drei Lieder für gemischten Chor nach Texten von William Shakespeare, die sowohl die Sänger als auch das Publikum in die Welt der Feen entführen. Downloadable, Choral score. Schott Music - Digital #Q19097. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q19097).

English.

With his three songs for mixed a-cappella choir (SSAATB) which were published under the speaking title of 'Fairy Land' in 2013, Hermann Große-Schware takes us to the wonderful land of fairy tales. All three six-part works are based on English-language poems by William Shakespeare. The first piece 'Over hill, over dale' from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' is characterized by melodic sequences and a distinctive rhythm which portrays the content of the piece headed 'Swift and Easy' as does the swaying ¾ rhythm of No. 2 'Philomel, with melody'. In the lively 'Come unto these yellow sands' (No. 3) one seems to be experiencing the barking of the dog and the crowing of the cock at first hand.
