Our band is in need of new music, our current selection is becoming really dated and isnt being renewed. Can anyone think of any new pieces that should be added to our packs ( probably isnt gonna happen but at least i can see what kind of music other bands are playing :? , and what we're missing out on ! :p)

Stephen roberts has just done two new fantastic pieces called:

American Carbival (it's the new hootenany!)
March to the brasshouse

Malaguena (Freeh) is also a really good piece!

I can't think this morning :? -I will have a look at our new music at band tonight and post tomorrow!

Being in a similar boat, we've just ordered a whole bunch of catalogues, and surfed the net. Some cool sites even allow you to hear or download demos of the pieces.

Our band (remember, they're young'uns!) liked a lot of the stuff from Bernaerts (sp). They have toe download function, plus allow you to see parts of the score!!

So get out there and have a good browse!!!

Hi matt,

I know sooo many pieces, I just want to go and buy loads of music!!! I want to get that piece called Breakout, I think it is from Cry of the Celts?? :? And Windows of the World is brilliant, it's a bit of a lip wrecker but it's really good. :D

Many thanks Neil, we always strive to give the best service we can.

All our titles are available online at www.crabtree-music.co.uk or via most reputable brass band dealers.

Maybe Rog is trying to avoid deliberatly plugging himself?? Maybe he has more self respect than that??? Or maybe, he's just too busy writing NEW music????????
