Piano Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1125814 By Michael Swedberg. By Felix Bartholdy Mendelssohn. Arranged by Terrence Niska. Christmas,Contemporary,Holiday. Score. 8 pages. Niska Music Publishing #726554. Published by Niska Music Publishing (A0.1125814). Once again the influence of George Winston and Mannheim Steamroller can be heard as this prelude begins with a burst of joy and energy that does not subside, but only grows with each verse. The changing meters make this piece a challenge to play and requires a strong technique to handle some of the scale passages. This arrangement is a far cry from the original music of Mendelssohn, but the lyrics inspired me to create something full of vibrancy and passion to match the glorious news that the angels came to deliver! The first verse establishes the 5/4 meter heard throughout the prelude and is filled with the pealing of church bells in the right hand as they send forth the melody in octaves! Meanwhile, the left hand continues the broken chord pattern established in the opening. In the next verse, the left hand is now rising and falling, while the right is still playing the melody in octaves. Only now it is filling the spaces with eighth notes to match the left hand…essentially combining the two hands of the previous verse. For the final verse, the left hand takes on the orchestral role of brass and percussion with thunderous chords punctuating the rhythm of the melody in the right hand. There are moments of fireworks as the hands break free of the 5/4 meter for some wonderful, albeit brief, scales which increase the growing excitement. The piece concludes with a return of the rhythmic material from the opening as the hands work their way down the piano in arpeggiated fashion only to race back up the keyboard for a final flourish before a resounding Amen: Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Glory to the new-born King!

I hope you enjoy it.Hark! The Herald Angels Sing is an English Christmas carol that first appeared in 1739 in the collection Hymns and Sacred Poems. The carol, based on Luke 2:14, tells of an angelic chorus singing praises to God. As it is known in the modern era, it features lyrical contributions from Charles Wesley and George Whitefield, two of the founding ministers of Methodism, with music adapted from Vaterland, in deinen Gauen by Felix Mendelssohn.Wesley, who had written the original version as Hymn for Christmas-Day, had requested and received slow and solemn music for his lyrics, which has since largely been discarded. Moreover, Wesley's original opening couplet is Hark! how all the welkin rings / Glory to the King of Kings. The popular version is the result of alterations by various hands, most notably by Whitefield, who changed the opening couplet to the familiar one. In 1840-a hundred years after the publication of Hymns and Sacred Poems-Mendelssohn composed a cantata to commemorate Johann Gutenberg's invention of movable type printing, and it is music from this cantata, adapted by the English musician William H. Cummings to fit the lyrics of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, that propels the carol known today.

Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.862642 Composed by Mendelssohn / Wesley. Arranged by Michael Bomier. 20th Century,Christmas,Classical,Instructional,Standards. Score. 3 pages. Michael Butkus-Bomier #3077579. Published by Michael Butkus-Bomier (A0.862642). This carol, which was used in the Charlie Brown Christmas special from the late 60's, is presented here in a more modern setting. The melody is harmonized in either a quartal chord, or a tritonic chord, using a 4th and 5th together with the root. See the sample for just how this structure appears. It is easy to play and hear. The LH uses open 4ths and 5ths, but in an Alberti-style arpeggiated configuration, so as to contrast with the blocks of sound in the treble. Intermediate and above. Suitable for use as a group vocal accompaniment, as are all the Minimalist carol settings from www.gatewayeditions.com MBB.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1136487 Composed by Edmund H. Sears and Felix Bartholdy Mendelssohn. Arranged by Cathy Stamegna. Christmas,Holiday,Instructional,Praise and Worship,Traditional. Score. 8 pages. Cathy Stamegna #736486. Published by Cathy Stamegna (A0.1136487). This tranquil Christmas hymn is arranged as a piano solo. Although chordal in some spots, it takes on more of a contrapuntal character and, as a result, may be used as an instructional piece. A short transition invites a meter change (from 6/8 to 4/4) where the Left Hand states phrases of â??Hark! The Herald Angels Singâ?� while the Right Hand continues with â??It Came Upon the Midnight Clearâ?� (in 4/4). Graded as Upper Intermediate because of the independence of the hands, occasions when the left hand carries the melody, and a few blues/jazz harmonies in the final section. The first two parts are in the key of Bb Major; the return of 6/8 in the final section is accompanied by a key change to C Major. (Tempo markings are suggested, but need not be adhered to by the performer). Appropriate for any Christmas prelude, worship, concert, recital, or holiday setting. Perf. Time: Approx. 3:46.
