A Tallis Fanfare (fa)€84.99A Tallis Fanfare is a festive and virtuoso composition by Rodney Newton, based on the well-known canon of the 16th century composer Thomas Tallis. Newton's work functions excellently as the ultimate concert opener, and is characterized by its surprising modulations and beautiful color palette. The skillful fanfare arrangement is by Marten van der Wal. There is plenty of room for the saxophone section.
The hymn in the middle section is preceded by a quick festive passage that returns at the end. A Tallis Fanfare contains many contrasts and is a rewarding occasional work at various events. After a festive introduction by the entire orchestra, Tallis's leading theme is performed by the trombone section, after which the saxophone group takes over the musical direction of this hymn. The ending is a reflection of the beginning; grand and exalted.

Bleak Forest€97.99Bleak Forest is a piece for smaller concert bands and offers the musicians above all space to improve their sound and their effect playing. The technical requirements are therefore deliberately kept low. With this piece, the composer won the VLAMO International Composition Contest 2022. Thematically, the work is influenced by the composer's childhood memories. In his hometown there was a dark and mysterious forest, that seemed to the children in the small village to be magical. Without a reasonable explanation, every trip into the woods was exciting and somewhat terrifying. There were tales of dangerous animals, which can be heard at the beginning of the piece, as well as magical beasts. The magic of the forest is depicted musically from bar 70 in the andante section. The snapping of the fingers represents single raindrops. From bar 99 onwards, we hear the trek home, with the occasional moments of trepidation as the children spook each other with their fanciful tales. In the end, though, we arrive safely at home because after all, magical beasts only exist in fairy tales… don’t they? Andreas Ziegelbäck studied music education at the Mozarteum University in Salzburg, and history at the Paris Lodron Universität, Salzburg. In addition to his studies, he trained in ensemble conducting for wind orchestra with conductor and composer Thomas Doss. It was Doss who sparked Ziegelbäck’s interest in composing. In 2021, Andreas Ziegelbäck completed his composition studies with Johannes Maria Staud. In 2020, he took part in a brass band composition masterclass in Bern with Oliver Waespi, followed by a premiere by the Swiss Army Brass Band.
