“Tone Poem No. 2 (Stars of the Desert Sky)� is the closing track of Keith’s 2016 album entitled Space and Time and the second in a series of close to ten pieces he's written under the title of “tone poem�. An interesting feature of “Stars of the Desert Sky� is that it incorporates an altered tuning of the 5th string (down to G) and the 3rd string (down to F#). This “open� tuning gives the piece a droning effect and is relatively easy to play. The title refers to Keith’s late brother Ken’s many photos of the landscape of the desert southwest and the particular beauty of the night sky far from city lights. While the recorded version of this piece features additional instruments including percussion, the music also works well as a guitar solo. This PDF includes standard notation with tablature for ease of learning.

This solo guitar version of “Lavender Sky� was written and recorded as part of Keith’s 2006 Christmas/seasonal recording Songs of December. A few years later, a portion of this tune was used as part of the musical score for the award winning short film by David Field entitled Caterpillar. A third rendering of this piece with various instruments appears on Keith’s 2016 album Space and Time. This relatively easy solo version captures beautifully the colors of the December sky and is popular with students learning classical or fingerstyle guitar. The PDF print out includes standard notation with tablature for ease of learning as well as a two page NOTES ONLY version for more experienced music readers.

“Girl on a Swing� was recorded as part of Keith’s 2016 album Space and Time. The title of this piece was inspired by the lyrics of the 2005 song “Simple� by Glen Phillips when he compared his wife’s love to the gentle beauty of a little girl on a playground swing. The lyrics are as follows:

I'm complication
Live wire down
I'm agitation
Distorted sound

You're celebration
Girl on a swing
Passion and patience
Unbroken ring
You're simple, simple
You're simple
Simply all I need

While the recorded version of “Girl on a Swing� features additional instruments, the piece works well as a guitar solo. This PDF includes standard notation with tablature for ease of learning.

Uplifting and versatile

Drawing inspiration from the American Gospel idiom, this lively composition presents a rousing musical experience. 

Flexible parts
What sets Sing with Spirit apart is its adaptability, allowing it to be performed by unison singers, a two-part choir, mixed chorus, or even as an uplifting solo piano piece. 

Secular or Sacred 
While embodying the spirit of American Gospel music, the lyrics intentionally avoid specific religious references. This makes it a suitable choice for secular events such as educational community choirs, while also finding its place in sacred settings such as worship services and church camps. The piece's versatility ensures that it complements diverse programming considerations.

Solo piano too! 
Moreover, Sing with Spirit offers the added bonus of a solo piano arrangement. The independently rich and full accompaniment lends itself well to modification for solo piano performance. With a separate piano part included, pianists have the flexibility to omit the vocal parts, allowing them to showcase their skills and explore the piece's musical depth on their own.

Additional musicians
A lead sheet with just melody and chords is included to enable additional musicians such as bass, drums, guitar, melody instruments…

Whether preparing for a choir performance or seeking a dazzling solo piano piece, this sheet music is certain to inspire and captivate listeners.

BTW, The idea for this piece was sparked by an adult student sharing a 5-note run to which I added some chords on the fly. The result put caused the whole class to smile so I decided to flesh it out. You can see that here: https://youtu.be/6bN_VgrHiEM

Highland Cathedral is a beautiful and stirring piece of music that evokes a sense of pride and nostalgia for the Scottish Highlands.

Highland Cathedral has become a popular choice for weddings, funerals, and other solemn occasions, and its popularity has spread far beyond Scotland's borders. The song's powerful yet gentle melody captures the essence of the Scottish spirit, and its haunting beauty has made it a beloved piece of music around the world.

Composed by Various. Arranged by Socrates Arvanitakis. Baroque. Individual part. 79 pages. Socrates Arvanitakis #1053626. Published by Socrates Arvanitakis (A0.1476094).

Preface

These 20+ Baroque pieces are selected from the repertoires of various string instruments like Lute, Baroque Guitar, Viola da Gamba, etc. Some of the pieces are much better known than others, but they all are of a high musical standard very rewarding for the beginner guitarist. I have tried to keep the level of technical difficulty within the first three grades (1-3) of the classification observed in the annual syllabuses of British musical academies such as the Royal Schools of Music, Trinity College, Guildhall College, etc, of prescribed examination pieces for these grades.

The Metronome markings are only editorial suggestions provided as general guidance but should not be taken too literally. This volume is divided into two sections. In the first section the pieces are given in ordinary notation and in decorated pages such as this one, without any fingerings or other technical help, but only for the pleasure of users who prefer a Baroque decorated appearance of books containing Baroque music. In the second section the same pieces are presented in undecorated pages and in double systems of notation pentagrams and tablature hexagrams in which the fingerings for every piece become obvious by the tablature and without further need for more left hand guidance. Therefore this book can be printed on paper either in its complete given form, or in any other page arrangement the user may prefer. Blank pages are provided for insertion at correct places for the management of left and right sides of a two-side view, but the volume has been designed with a paperless environment in mind where a tablet and a score reading application would be used.

The thematic index is provided for general navigation withinthis electronic book.

1 Clicking on any image in the index takes the user to the relevant decorated page of music, or clicking within the square frame number beside each image links the user to the corresponding tablature pages.

2 Clicking on the title of any piece takes the user back to the index.

3 Clicking on the header of the page is used for interchanging between decorated and undecorated pages.
