Soprano voice,Vocal Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.873021 Composed by Sally Whitwell. Contemporary. 8 pages. Sally Whitwell #3867171. Published by Sally Whitwell (A0.873021). Composer’s Note - Some World Far From OursA principle source of inspiration for composers is surely a performer of great talent and skill. Percy Bysshe Shelley proves that this is true not only for composers but for poets as well. His dear friend Jane Williams -- the never proven conjecture is that she was actually his lover -- could sing like a bird and also play flute, harp and guitar. In S​ ome World Far From Ours,​ I so enjoyed bringing some musical life to a text that praises a musician from a poet who understands how a singing voice can transport a listener in a was that speech cannot.-- Sally Whitwell

Soprano voice,Vocal Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.834331 Composed by Steven Shade. 20th Century,Romantic Period. 12 pages. Steve Shade #3240751. Published by Steve Shade (A0.834331). Eulalie is a poem written by Edgar Allan Poe. I have set it to a song for Soprano Voice and Piano. Due to the content of the poem, this piece allows the vocalist to get a chance to work on both expressive and dramatic singing. The vocalist gets a moment to truly shine during a mini cadenza. Although not the soloist, the pianist has interludes that will showoff the player's expressive abilities. Although not technically difficult, this piece does demand a fairly large range from the vocalist. This song would be a good expressive piece to add to a recital. Contents: Cover page, program notes, Eulalie poem in its entirety, full scoreSoprano Range: C4-Bb5Difficulty: Intermediate/Early AdvancedDuration: About 3 minutes

Soprano voice,Vocal Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.953827 Composed by Henryk Pachulski. Arranged by Haydn Reeder. Pop,Romantic Period. 4 pages. Haydn Reeder #3210567. Published by Haydn Reeder (A0.953827). With words by Fiona McEwan, the score is a song  for female voice and piano/keyboard.  It's based on the Prelude Opus 8 Nr 5 for piano by Pachulski and I have simplified the accompaniment to reveal the basic harmonies.  It's quite short, lasting about 2 minutes and I presume it would suit a pop singing voice, or a singer who can imitate that sort of voice.

Published by Alexander Hartel (A0.1345208). The text is a poem by Isaac Watts (1674-1748), the English hymn-writer better known for such traditional favorites as Joy to the World or When I Survey the Wondrous Cross. Appearing in 1715 under the title, Hush! My Dear, Lie Still and Slumber, the lullaby portrays a mother singing to her baby of the serenity and comfort her baby enjoys, contrasted with the bleak conditions in which the baby Jesus was born. As she sings, the mother figuratively takes her child to the cross and expresses her longing to see the child come to know the Savior who died there. In this setting for solo soprano, accompanied by piano and cello, there are moments of tenderness, interspersed with interludes of intense emotion, finished with a tranquil conclusion.

Published by Abigail Gilson (A0.1024940).          The main feeling of this poem is hope, just hope to make the world a better place, to help someone in need. A young girl, so naive and innocent, who believes that she can live a good life by making the lives of others better. But as the song cycle continues we see that for some women, their dreams will never become a reality. We see hints of this in this piece, as in the second section, the piece dips into a minor key. Suggesting that the woman girl has started to give up on her dreams. But the girl keeps singing, saying that she’ll help a fainting robin. She has not given up yet, and will not let her dreams fade.

Soprano voice and piano - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q20899 Nach einem Gedicht von James Joyce. Composed by Aribert Reimann. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Duration 16 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q20899. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q20899). English.Night-like sounds are explored in a variety of ways in the three parts of this wide-ranging scene. Ornamental and playful, the piano entwines with the singing voice in the first part. In the recitative-like second part, the grace and grandeur of Seraphim manifestations are derived from the sound of plucked piano strings. The third part is characterized by the death knell: 'voidward from the adoring waste of souls'.

Soprano voice and piano - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q6176 Fragment from Das Urteil (The Judgement) by Franz Kafka. Composed by Christian Jost. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Duration 7 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q6176. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6176). German.Kafka's œuvre is interspersed with moments of utter anxiety. Moments in which, induced by adrenalin, the blood pressure rises. Blood vessels which seem to constrict, pump enormous quantities of blood the pressure of which might make one believe that the head is going to explode. In The Judgment, an innocent opening story leads to one of the most unusual showdowns in world literature: The beloved father sentences his son to death by drowning; the son immediately obeys since his life, his existence almost explodes, becomes blurred, dissolves at the moment the judgment is pronounced. For me, the 'self' driving him – I imagine this as a high sound in the inner ear – could only be a soprano. This is why the actual 'fall' has turned out to be clear, almost friendly and why Georg only seems to want to breathe a soft and quiet 'Dear parents, I have always loved you' during the fall while no longer keeping the singing tone, shortly before death, almost casually, takes hold of him. Christian Jost.
