The following new works, suitable for bands of all grades and ability, are exclusive to SafeMusic so why not build your repertoire with music that you will want to perform time and time again!

Serenar - is an original composition for Oboe and Concert Band combining both modern and a classical feel. Serenar oozes a tenderness and pure emotion that only true love can draw from the soul. Simply a must for all bands and a wonderful feature for Oboists of all grades. Also available as a Trumpet Solo.

Sonore Festivo - as the title suggests, is a work that exudes passion and powerful sonorities whilst creating a sense of a Festive occasion. With a plethora of odd time signatures, fanfares and pyramids adding excitement the work is a powerful addition to the Concert Band repertoire. 

Descent into the Maelstrom - Full of energy, this high impact work will enthral your audience with its musical pyrotechnics. 

Labyrinth - Depicting an epic journey, Labyrinth twists and turns through never ending passages; representing a journey to its centre and back again out into the world. An ideal concert opener and full of oomph! 

The Manikins of War - The Manikins of War’, is the third in his trilogy depicting mythological episodes, depicts an epic battle between good and evil with mythological creatures gathering for the war to end all wars. Full of energy this beautifully crafted work is eminently playable and will enthral your audience with its ever shifting moods, unexpected twists and rich scoring; so much a feature of Ian’s compositions and arrangements.

Bugler's in the Ballroom - A powerful new work for Bugles & Concert Band that will enrapture your audience with its beautiful melodic lines, flowing counter melodies and driving rhythms. Also performable as a Trumpet feature.
