Choral Choir (SATB divisi) - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.796815 By The Band. By J.R. Robertson. Arranged by Eric Hagmann. A Cappella. Octavo. 14 pages. Eric Hagmann #3911445. Published by Eric Hagmann (A0.796815). An SSATB + duet vocal jazz arrangement of The Weight (Take a Load Off, Annie) by The Band.  This chart reimagines The Band's original song as an a cappella swing tune straight out of the 1940's.  The bottom voice thumps along on neutral syllables of your choosing just as an upright bassist would in the big band.  If you don't have any singers who can take on this part, an actual bass instrument could be substituted.  The guitar accompaniment of the original song is now replaced by complex jazz harmonies and rhythms sung by your upper voices to compliment your soloists.  The last 1/3rd of the song has a breakdown that layers and overlaps your voices one by one until they come together for a final build into the last chorus.  This section also offers an opportunity for a small quartet to sing an optional harmony part. While this piece is challenging, it offers a unique spin on an old classic that will surely hold your audience's attention if performed well.  .

Choral Choir (Mixed) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1016588 Composed by R. Currier III. 20th Century,Concert,Contemporary. Octavo. 3 pages. R. Currier III #6140131. Published by R. Currier III (A0.1016588). This ensemble piece was written for a multi-arts program at the New Britain Museum of American Art designed to bring attention to the issue of homelessness. To underscore the uncertainties those experiencing homelessness routinely have to endure, the piece incorporates elements of chance and indeterminacy. This makes each performance truly a one-of-a-kind experience, and a unique addition to contemporary music programs. Key aspects of the piece are determined by the musicians themselves in real-time during the performance, which can cause the running time of this piece to vary between just a few minutes and, potentially, hours! Intermediate level musicians should be able to tackle this work without difficulty, and more experienced musicians can incorporate additional depth (and technical challenge) by rhythmically offsetting their entry point into the piece (see the performance notes page for further details).Although scored for flute, oboe, violin, cello and piano, this piece could easily be performed by virtually any grouping of instruments with equal success.Thanks for stopping by to check out Seven or Snake Eyes?.
