FINALE from Francesca...€ 57,58Tchaikovsky’s symphonic poem Francesca da Rimini: Symphonic Fantasy after Dante, Op. 32, was composed in less than three weeks during his visit to Bayreuth in the autumn of 1876. Iain McKnight’s arrangement of the exciting Finale was first performed by the Leyland Band at the 2011 Brass in Concert and was used to conclude the band’s winning performance.

Finale from Symphony...€ 63,24One of the most life-affirming pieces of music ever composed, Mahler’s 2nd Symphony, subtitled ‘The Resurrection’, was first performed in Berlin in 1895. The music contains one of Mahler’s magical transitionary passages, building in intensity, before the hymn is restated in all its majesty at the moment of glorious resurrection.

Lux Aeterna€ 49,36The title Lux Aeterna (Eternal Light) can be interpreted on a number of levels. Musically it has a rather mystical feel to it, and the single note with which the piece begins continues uninterrupted throughout, like an inextinguishable flame, or a constant source of hope.
