Mozart originally wrote this concerto for a clarinet with an extended lower range compared to the conventional instrument. As early as 1802 published versions appeared with registral changes which made the concerto playable on instruments without the extra keys. When producing an edition for the conventional clarinet there are two choices to be made about the ‘extra’ notes - is it better to maintain the musical line and hence transpose whole phrases or passages up an octave rather than single notes or is the chalumeau tone more important in which case it may possibly be better to alter one or two notes to keep the correct octave. In this edition Philip Sparke has usually gonefor the former so the ‘sequences’ make musical sense but have taken the second option in some places. This fantastic work will prove popular with soloist band and audience alike.

Marchissimo will make a fantastic opening piece for any concert. It does however come with a twist! It can be played simply as written but is really designed to be ‘staged’ with players coming on the concert platform one by one as they begin to play. The piece actually consists of three marches in one each of which highlights a section of the band. The piece culminates in a final climax where all three march themes are played simultaneously.

The Haunter of the Dark is based on a tale by the author Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) about a deserted church where according to an old legend a monster had been lying low for years.A scientist who studies ancient religions visits this church. Besides some ancient writings he discovers a box which contains a luminous stone. Every time the stone sheds its light the scientist experiences all sorts of weird visions.The church in the tale actually exists and can be found in Providence (USA). Franco Cesarini has visited it and sketches the mysterious and occult atmosphere in The Haunter of the Dark.

Concertino for 3 or 4 Horns and Concert Band-After attending a performance of Hänsel und Gretel by Engelbert Humperdinck the composer decided to write a commissioned piece for 4 horns and concert band based on the beautiful melody “Abendsegen” as used in Engelbert’s famous overture. The composition can be performed with three or four solo horns with cues in the others parts and in the band. This work can be played with the horn section of your own band; the two extra horn parts noted in the full score are optional and can be left out. This piece is a stunning challenge for your french horn section!
