Published by John Fries (A0.1359394). TYPE JOHN FRIES IN THE SEARCH BAR TO SEE ALL I HAVE TO OFFER! Thanks, John.  Laughter in the Rain is a song composed and recorded by Neil Sedaka, with lyrics by Phil Cody. It includes a 20-second saxophone solo by Jim Horn. The opening chord of the chorus was based on that used by John in Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, which Sedaka has described as a drop-dead chord. He combined that with a pentatonic melody inspired by Aaron Copland. Cody claims to have written the lyrics in about five minutes after smoking marijuana and falling asleep under a tree for a couple of hours.

Published by John McAllister (A0.1370325). Compton Bridge Road is a musical journey inspired by the scenic drive along Compton Bridge Road in Inman, South Carolina. The undulating hills stretching endlessly beneath the warm embrace of the setting sun served as the impetus for this composition. Written for the Chapman High School Band, the march captures the essence of the picturesque landscape surrounding the school.The piece is loosely characterized as a pastoral march, reflecting the intention to infuse harmonies and melodies that resonate with the spirit of Americana. Drawing inspiration from how Aaron Copland's music mirrors the landscapes it depicts, the composition aims to create a sonic representation of the visual beauty of Inman.Not adhering strictly to traditional march conventions, the piece incorporates a lush trio section, enhancing the overall sense of grandeur and tranquility. While Compton Bridge Road may deviate from the conventional march style, it remains a valuable educational tool, providing opportunities for students to explore different musical elements and forms within the context of a march. This composition offers a refreshing perspective, allowing musicians to expand their understanding of the genre while maintaining essential march style and structure.

Piano,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.796597 Composed by William H. Doane (1832-1915). Arranged by Gary D. Belshaw (ASCAP). Folk,Sacred. 5 pages. DR GARY D BELSHAW #2965523. Published by DR GARY D BELSHAW (A0.796597). Key: D Major. (Also available in E-flat) The well-known and beloved hymn by Fanny Crosby and William H. Doane is scored here for solo violin and piano. I have endeavored to emulate the style of Aaron Copland in this writing. It is simplistic, yet profound. No matter how often you practice with a metronome - which is important to do! - be sure to turn that thing off just as many times and let the music tell you when to ease up and when to press forward. Listen to the notes: play what you hear and feel. Be moved yourself; otherwise no one else will be either!
