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
