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.

A Water's Fantasy€134.50A 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.
