Bright Future€78.00
The composition 'Bright Future' was written as a prize for Fanfare 'Kunst Na Arbeid' Hierden (conducted by Arno Groeneveld) for their victory in the 4th division at the Open Dutch Fanfare Championships (ONFK) in 2023.The commissioner's wish was to create a contrasting work, combining march-like gestures with chorale-like sounds within a contemporary idiom.The contrasting theme serves as a metaphor for innovative paths the band has taken in recent times in order to achieve a positive and clear future perspective.The title (provided by the band) originated from this idea. In addition, the work contains a proud and maestoso character, to refer to the band's victory at the Open Dutch Fanfare Championships 2023.

Poème Symphonique€276.00
The work was written for the World Music Competition in Kerkrade as a compulsory work for the 1st division fanfare in the 1989 edition, and for a long time was only available as an original fanfare work. Since then it has remained a very appealing composition for the Brass and wind music audience, not only because of the exciting progression of the piece, but also because of its special compositional approach.
As is often the case with popular works, a version for concert band was also regularly hinted at in this work. It is quite common knowledge that Rob Goorhuis does not like to write in a HAFABRA mode. His works generally only exist in one setting, the original, for the orchestral form for which it was conceived. However, Rob Goorhuis has devoted himself to a completely new version, which does justice to the color palette of the concert band. The flexibility of the woodwinds gives an extra dimension to the new work thus created.

A Water's Fantasy€134.50
A Water's Fantasy (In En Om De Sprengen) is a fantasy-like work in three parts, written for the music association Prince Bernhard Emst.
Part 1 opens with 'De Spreng' filling up. The water enters De Spreng in large and small shoots. Then we go on an adventure through Emst. It flows, as it were, from part 1 via the quiet meadows and nature (rehearsal number D) into the village, where it encounters all kinds of tourists in part 2. This second part (rehearsal number F) is characterized by the commotion. Here and there it gets a bit restless, but the prevailing atmosphere is almost festive. All kinds of different people together, which is also reflected in the rapid variation in the music. After this hustle and bustle, there is time for the peace and quiet that nature radiates around Emst (rehearsal grade I). Then the Emster Festival comes into view. First the preparation (rehearsal grade J) and then the party starts (rehearsal grade L). There is the option to have the entire club, including the starting youthplayers, play along by means of: the flex parties. This part (rehearsal figure L to the end) can also be played as a separate intermezzo.
