From the Robin Dewhurst collection, this multi-talented young 
composer has produced a simply wonderful solo for trombone and concert band. 
Premiered by virtuoso Brett Baker, this latin-styled work reaches its climax in 
a stunning cadenza for soloist supported by percussion section. (Also available 
with piano accompaniment).<BR></P>

<B>Bravura</B> is a companion piece to the composer's earlier 
euphonium display piece Brillante, utilising the same traditional 19th century 
"fantasy variation" structure, familiar to generations of brass soloists. Folk 
songs from the four corners of Great Britain are featured; Oranges and Lemons, 
(England), The Blue Bells of Scotland, The Minstrel Boy (Ireland) and the famous 
Welsh anthem Men of Harlech. 
<P>The solo is a conflation of the original version, written for the 2002 Royal 
Albert Hall Gala Concert, which followed the National Brass Band Championships 
of Great Britain. On that occasion the combined talents of virtuosi David 
Childs, Derick Kane, Steven Mead and David Thornton (with guests Robert and 
Nicholas Childs) were on display, each personalising the cadenza section towards 
the end. This version incorporates a published cadenza, though soloists should 
feel free to improvise their own material at this point. <BR></P>

<B>Northern Landscapes</B> is scored for professional brass quintet and grade 3/4 wind band and was written as part of an education project sponsored by the Ulster Brass Quintet. The piece is designed to allow advanced players (the quintet) to perform with young musicians (the wind band). In the case of the Ulster Quintet the performance followed master classes and coaching sessions, <B>Northern Landscapes</B> providing the finale to the days events.</P>

<P>The four movements provide musical mood pictures of various aspects of working life in Northern Ireland. 1) <A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/NLWB1.mp3" target=_blank>Industry</A> opens the suite with the bustle of factory machinery, followed attacca by 2) <A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/NLWB2.mp3" target=_blank>Seascapes,</A> which evokes the calmness of local  waters during a fishing expedition. 3) <A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/NLWB3.mp3" 
target=_blank>Earth Dance</A> references the mining industry where the blackness of the environment is mirrored by the darkness of the music. 

4) <A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/NLWB4.mp3" target=_blank>Flight</A> evokes the path of an aircraft on its maiden journey in this tribute to the aircraft industry.</P> 

<P><B>Northern Landscapes</B> was commissioned by the Ulster Orchestra Society, with funds provided by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.</P>

<P><B>In League with Extraordinary Gentlemen</B> combines two of composer Peter Graham's life interests - composition and 19th century popular fiction. Each of the concerto’s three movements takes its musical inspiration from extraordinary characters who have transcended the original genre and have subsequently found mass audiences through film, television and comic book adaptations. </P>

<P>The first movement follows a traditional sonata form outline with one slight modification. The order of themes in the recapitulation is reversed, mirroring a plot climax in the H.G. Wells novella The Time Machine (where the protagonist, known only as <A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/League1.mp3" 
  target=_blank><B>The Time Traveller,</A></B> puts his machine into reverse bringing the story back full circle).</P>
 <P><A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/League2.mp3" 
  target=_blank><B>The Adventure of the Final Problem</A></B> is the title of a short story published in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle. This is an account of the great detective’s final struggle with his long-time adversary Professor Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls in Switzerland. The music takes the form of a slowed down ländler (a Swiss/Austrian folk dance) and various acoustic and electronic echo effects call to mind the alpine landscape. The final bars pose a question paralleling that of Conan Doyle in the story – have we really seen the last of Sherlock Holmes?</P>

<P>The final movement, <A href="http://www.gramercymusic.com/sound/League3.mp3" 
  target=_blank><B>The Great Race,</A></B> follows Phileas Fogg on the last stage of his epic journey “Around the World in Eighty Days” (from the novel by Jules Verne). The moto perpetuo nature of the music gives full rein to the soloist’s technical virtuosity. As the work draws to a conclusion, the frantic scramble by Fogg to meet his deadline at the Reform Club in Pall Mall, London, is echoed by the soloist’s increasingly demanding ascending figuration, set against the background of Big Ben clock chimes.</P>

<P><B>In League with Extraordinary Gentlemen</B> was first performed by Steven Mead and the Osaka Municipal Symphonic Band, conductor Kazuhiko Komatsu, in The Symphony Hall Osaka, Japan, on June 6, 2008.</P>
