Score & Parts
Originally written as a parlour song by Stephen C Foster this timeless melody is another great addition to your horn repertoire.

Again, not a traditional march but a great opener. Stargazer is the third of Kevin’s space trilogy. Again, this piece shows all the hallmarks of Kevin’s writing with a great melody and plenty of energy with a little twist, as in the middle section the title is spelled out in the cornets using Morse code. A must for any band.
England’s oldest known Christmas Carol.
This atmospheric arrangement takes the Carol back to it’s original form and melody which is slightly different from the modern day version.
Carnsmerry was written as the set march in the year 2000 for the 1st section at the West of England Bandsmen’s Festival contest held in the village of Bugle in Cornwall. Snippets of both the Floral Dance as well as the May Dance can be heard in this vibrant march, finishing with an obbligato for both the Soprano Cornet and Solo Horn this is a must for your concert programme.
