Category: LIGHT CONCERT MUSIC Composer: John Williams Arranger: Peter Graham
The outstanding success of his scores for the films of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg thrust the modest and self-effacing John Williams into the limelight to such an extent that he became the natural choice as composer for a theme to open the 1985 Olympic Games held in Los Angeles. Williams did not disappoint and produced a stately, ceremonial march preceded by a stirring fanfare.

Category: LIGHT CONCERT MUSIC Composer: Handel Arranger: Jonathan Bates
Whilst many will not know the music by name, upon hearing a few bars, the music is recognisable as one of Handel's most famous works. This however was not always the case. 'Ombra Mai Fu' is the opening Aria from the opera 'Serse' which was a failure upon its release, lasting only five performances following its premiere. Thankfully the work was rediscovered some years later and became one of the most famous classical music pieces we know today. Originally composed to be performed by a castrato singer, Jonathan Bates has now arranged this timeless classic into a beautiful cornet solo that would feature well in both the concert hall and bandstand.
