The Nightingale Violin duet and Piano is a violin duet in Barcarolle tempo and in ternary form.
Witten in concert G minor I wanted the lilting tempo in the outer sections to have a medieval minor tone, to work with the contrasting major section in the middle.( flute duet, flute and clarinet duet and clarinet duet also available)

THE PIANO ACCOMPANIMENT TRACK IS AVAILABLE ON MP3.  ITEM NO' S0.858215
I very much wanted it to be a violin duet rather than violin 1 and violin 2, so the parts are pretty equally divided. It is romantic in nature, but uses modes and has a few interesting harmonies.
It is placed at intermediate level, about associated board grade 4/5 - dotted quaver semiquaver is the most complicated rhythm). The whole score is on the youtube link for you to assess suitability- It would be very suitable for concerts, contests, recitals, weddings as well as an incidental piece. There are 2 violin pages per part and the piano part has 6 pages- 5 minutes in length.

Price is for score and parts.

Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Ander. Christmas,Classical,Instructional,March,Romantic Period. 8 pages. Woods Only, Arrangements #801301. Published by Woods Only, Arrangements (A0.1202562).

This arrangement adapted for violin duo was designed to make its listeners weep with emotion, because the adaptation preserves the original essence of the work, keeping its integrity faithful to what Beethoven wanted to transmit, with only a slight change in tone and addition of harmonic resources in the structure of the arrangement. Even though it is a funeral march, it is well suited for any musical performance occasion, being intended for beginner students who want to immerse themselves in the universe of romantic music, and nothing better than starting with the transitional composer of this period, which also does not prevent professional teachers from using it for recitals, academic presentations or didactic material in their classes as an ensemble practice.

Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 14 in C minor sharp, Op. 27, No. 2, is one of his most popular compositions and was an audience favorite even in his day. Written when Beethoven was 31, the Moonlight Sonata (Mondscheinsonate in German) was composed after he finished some commissioned works, but there is no evidence that he was hired to write this work. It did not receive its nickname until 1832, five years after Beethoven's death. It was the critic Ludwig Rellstab who compared the music to a moonlighting on Lake Lucerne. This comparison was adopted as a nickname for the work. Called Quasi una fantasia by the author - like its companion Op. 27, No. 1 - the piece was completed in 1801 and dedicated the following year to one of the composer's pupils. Beethoven chose to open the sonata with a slow, hypnotic arpeggio movement, the best known of the entire work. The dotted rhythm of its minimal melody evokes the tradition of 'Trauermusik' (funeral music).

Composed by Grant Horsley. Christmas,Classical,Holiday,Standards,Wedding. 15 pages. Grant Horsley #884171. Published by Grant Horsley (A0.1293696).

I wanted this piece to convey the feeling of the shared warmth of having family and friends meeting over the festive season when everything is done, and now it’s time to enjoy! Written in Concert C major the introduction begins with a bell- like Christmas chime settling into the main theme which is almost like a verse and chorus.

The piece has two of these sections with a link between the two. The second section is a different treatment to the first as some of the bell like figurations of the opening are incorporated. There is also a mix of staccato and legato phrasing to give contrast. The Chorus part is repeated before a short quiet reflective ending. The range is two octaves at most and there is nothing more complicated than an eighth note- hence it has been set in early intermediate level.

I wanted 2 equal instrumental parts so there is no number 1 and 2! The whole piece is on the youtube link for you to assess suitability.
Ideal to be added to a Christmas concert list!

It is 3 minutes 15 in length. Price is for score and parts.

Pământul întreg se destramă El trece şi dincolo, mamă? Materia unde se duce Din locul c-o floare de cruce? Urmează mai greu după greu? Se moare şi-acolo mereu? Şi cine plânge aceste Noi morţi fără boli, fără veste? Tu toate voiai să le ştii, Izvor pentru verbul a fi, Tu care născut-ai în chin, Această ninsoare ţi-o-nchin, Sfinţind cu prohod de nămeţi, Prea multele tale peceţi. LYRICS IN ENGLISH (a gross translation): Elegy by Marin Sorescu Mom, the first snow, It's starting to fall on you, You listen to the gust of wind, Hidden in one word. The whole earth is falling apart, but does it go Beyond, mother? Where does the matter go From the place of a flower-like cross? Does harder follow after just hard? Do people also die in their after-life world? And who cries about these new sudden deaths without any disease? You wanted to know everything, As you are the Source for the verb „to be�, You who gave birth in torment, I homage you with this snow, Sanctifying with a sacred chant of mud, The too-many of your seals.
