French composer and conductor, Henri Tomasi (1901-1971) published Liturgical Fanfares in 1952. As with his other wind compositions, Liturgical Fanfares was well-received by audiences. Tomasi was born in Marseille, but his Father and Mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica. Despite being pressured into musical studies by his parents, Tomasi dreamed of becoming a sailor, and during the summer he stayed with his Grandmother in Corsica where he learnt traditional Corsican songs. However, in 1921, he began his studies at the Paris Conservatoire and went on to become a high profile composer and conductor. Tomasi did not forget his Corsican routes, often incorporating themes of the songs he had learnt during the summers with his Grandmother into his compositions. Composed for an unusual instrumentation of Brass Ensemble, Timpani and Drums, Liturgical Fanfares comprises four movements; 1) Annunciation, 2) Gospel, 3) Apocalypse, and 4) Good Friday Procession. This Tomasi piece is suitable to advanced players and provides an exciting, alternative addition to the ensemble repertoire..

During his short lifetime Max Reger (1873-1916) was a prolific composer with many of his best known works being composed for organ. The ten chorale preludes in this selection are from his set of Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op.135a composed as short voluntaries for liturgical use rather than for recitals in these arrangements Philip Sparke has kept this in mind and each prelude can be performed with minimal instrumentation for those occasions where a small band is needed. They also make great pieces for band warm-ups or studies in intonation, sound and balance.Max Reger komponierte eine Fülle an Werken vieler Genres. Unter anderem schrieb er 30 kleine Vorspiele zu den gebräuchlichsten Chorälen für Orgel, die mehr als für den liturgischen Rahmen, denn als Vortragsstücke gedacht waren. Seine Blasorchesterbearbeitung dieser zehn Präludien machte Philip Sparke daher für eine minimale Besetzung spielbar, so dass sie auch Gottesdienst verwendet werden können. Außerdem eignen sie sich auch hervorragend als Aufwärmstücke, Stimm-, Klang- oder Balanceübungen oder in verschiedenen Zusammenstellungen als kleine Suiten für den Konzertgebrauch. Eine vielseitige Sammlung, die in keinem Repertoire fehlen sollte!

Inspired by his tune CHRIST AND ST. LUKE'S, composer Carl Haywood has written this five-movement work that may function in recital/concert performance or individual movements may be selected for liturgical use. Each movement enjoys its own stylistic treatment from the stately Fanfare to the contemplative Meditation to the resounding conclusion of Toccata..
