Concert Band - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.814715 Composed by Richard E Brown. Arranged by Dacker Music. Contemporary,Instructional,Standards. Score and parts. 58 pages. Dacker Music #2967143. Published by Dacker Music (A0.814715). Fantasy on a Hebrew Chant is based on the Yigdal, an ancient Jewish chant which is the basis for the modern hymn-tune Leoni. The composition is in the form of 3 settings of the tune that flow together almost imperceptibly. The first and third settings feature the theme woven into various contrapuntal textures, while the second employs a type of cantus firmus technique, where the primary melody is played in double note values in the lower instruments below woodwind figuration derived from the secondary part of the tune. In addition to working with contrapuntal lines and octave-tuning practice, Fantasy on a Hebrew Chant also provides opportunities for teaching the three types of minor scales, exploring how elements of all three are used in the same musical composition. The price includes license to make as many copies of each part as necessary.Grade 2+    -     Duration 3:00

Concert Band - Digital Download SKU: A0.496600 Composed by Joseph Stribrny. Contemporary. Score and parts. 24 pages. Published by Joseph Stribrny (A0.496600). This is a piece of music I composed for my high school alma mater. As of this upload however, there are no performances of this piece that have taken place. What sets this apart is the use of a sort of 'cantus firmus' melody in the third section with a familiar chord progression, as well as a woodwind fade out instead of a downbeat finish. Included in this purchase is a pdf of the full score as well as the parts for your band. An updated conductor's score will include a change in the staff sizes to fit the full page rather than to include two systems on one page.
