No 47   Transcription  - Marche Triomphale (for full band and optional organ)

by Sigfrid Karg-Elert, arranged by William Himes

The music represents a peak of late Romantic music in its emotional intesity, variety of styles and imaginative use of resources. A virtuoso organist, this work is among the composer´s best-known and most lastign works.

No 48   Rhapsody  -  To Worlds Unknown

by Stephen Bulla

This exciting music is based primarily on melodic fragments from the song "Will your  anchor hold?" depicting the "storms of life" and the persistent question of drifting or standing firm. A reflective setting which follows features "Rock of Ages" (Flugel solo) and prtrays the eternal reward of the faithful. "When I soar to worlds unknown, see thee on thy judgment throne, Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee." This challenging work concludes with a triumphant return to the opening chorus - "We have an anchor that keeps the soul steadfast and sure while the billows roll"

No 40   Cornet solo   -   Garments of Peace

by Robert Redhead

An expressive devotional solo featuring "The Prayer of St Francis" by Sebastian Temple interwoven with the composer´s original chorus - "Please clothe me, Lord"
