IMPORTANT COVID-19 INFORMATION FOR BAND DIRECTORS
Many music directors have had questions about how to conduct a large ensemble during this pandemic. I have asked for ideas that I may post on this website. I am especially pleased to have the response of Dr. Tim Robblee, Conductor, Shenandoah Conservatory Wind Ensemble, Winchester, VA. He has submitted three significant files with research directed especially for wind instrument players, and those related to rehearsal procedures. Also Dr. Paul W. Popiel, Band Director at the Univ. of Kansas has provided a link to their program during the pandemic. I believe it would be well worth your time to read these documents and see how they might be useful to all programs around the world. Please click on the link:

Thanks for visiting!
Our goal has been to make it easy for you to find exactly what music you may want to consider, whether searching by title, or by composer, grade of difficulty, genre, arrangements that include optional chorus, or whatever might come to mind.
When you click on the title, you can see a full description, listen to the complete recording, and view a page of score to give you an idea about instrumentation requirements, etc.
HOW DO I DOWNLOAD MUSIC?
When you place your selection(s) in the ‘cart’, you will be purchasing electronic files of music that will automatically download to your own computer. You should find the file named by title, in the download section of your computer.
Payment may be made by credit card or via PayPal. This payment automatically triggers the download. Only one electronic download is allowed.
HOW IS THE MUSIC FORMATTED?
The music is in high resolution, and contains the conductor’s score (sometimes a second score is included which may be printed on 11” x 17” paper for easier reading), and one of each instrumental part, which you my duplicate as needed for the number of people in your ensemble.
Please note that arrangements written for combined band and chorus have the choral parts shown in the conductor’s score as reference, but the individual parts are not included in the download. The choral parts may be purchased separately as needed from a local music store or a distributor.

Edward Elgar
If you have been following my website, you have seen a number of recent arrangements of music by Edward Elgar. There are several of his compositions that are familiar to bands around the world. But there are also a number of his compositions that have been less known, and for the most part, first time arrangements for the Concert/Wind Band. I invite anyone who is interested in this music to spend some time listening to Meditation from The Light of Life, Froissart Concert Overture, Cockaigne Overture, The Wand of Youth, No. 1 in seven movements, and The Wand of Youth, No. 2, March. Fans of Edward Elgar will enjoy the rich melodies and dramatic dynamics for which he is so well known. And for me, the delight is that there is more to come! Thanks for listening.
Cockaigne Overture
I am so pleased to offer a new arrangement of one of Edward Elgar’s most popular compositions, the Cockaigne Overture. It is a very descriptive piece with the subtitle “In London Town”, filled with Elgar’s beautiful melodies, moments of tenderness, humor, grandeur, and enormous climax with optional organ. My hope is that this piece will take its place in the band world alongside of the Walton great pieces – Crown Imperial, Orb and Sceptre, Prelude and Fugue (The Spitfire), and numerous others. Please take the time to give it a listen, and perhaps an outstanding band will give this arrangement a recording for all to hear!
In the meantime, the several titles that were offered at no cost during the COVID-19 pandemic have expired, but at a later date may be extended as we see how long this isolation will last.
Stay tuned, and keep in touch!

Three Composers Speak Out
“
Thank you for all you are doing to bring my work to different performers and different audiences.”
— John Rutter, Huntingdon, UK
“
Dr. Noble has shown great interest in my music which I am very humbled by. His reputation in the world of concert bands is legion and I cannot think of anyone I would rather entrust my music to in the matter of arranging for the medium. I am very grateful that he has taken on this task and in so doing introduced my music to a totally new body of music makers.”
— Philip Lane, Cheltenham, UK
