CLAIR DE LUNE, Quartet for 3 treble and 1 bass instrument

Score: 7 pages

parts: 8 pages

time: 4'10

DEMO: For the demo the example is woodwinds.

MY QUARTET VERSIONS, in short notice usually work fine for solo, two parts and three parts

however I also offer individual versions for one, two and three parts that are more detailed for these ensembles.

Please visit https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/search?Ntt=sherry+lewis+publishing for all of the titles I offer.

If you can’t find a title then contact me through stringquartet@hotmail.com and I’ll give you the link back to Sheet Music Plus’s listing.

VERSATILE Titles that include four parts are written with the idea that they can be performed with 1, 2, 3 or 4 musicians. Most of the contemporary/popular titles include a chord chart for a bass instrument.

PRACTICE needs would vary according to the level of the performers but my goal is to be sight-readable for most performers and groups.

AUDIO SAMPLE The 30 second mp3 is frequently shortened and may not start at the introduction to get to the reprise. The actual introduction will be in the sheet music.

LISTENABILITY I have performed thousands of weddings and special events. I make it a goal for the music to carry as well as possible through loud and large space situations.

ARRANGEMENTS usually follow the original version. There is an mp3 where you can hear 30 seconds and get a feeling of the originality of the work.

EXCELLENT for corporate events, weddings, social gatherings and recitals.

APPROPRIATE for students and schools.

CHURCH REPERTOIRE I’m always adding more titles.

Thank you for your purchase!

The first of six  sonatas for four equal players published ‘avec Privilege du Roi’ in Paris in 1731. They were published as a set of parts for three transverse flutes or violins or other instruments ‘avec la Basse’. There are four movements, all in G minor, Adagio, Presto, Adagio & Allegro.  The only dynamic marking is the ‘Piano’ marked at the end of the last movement. The ornaments  - trills, mordants & grace notes - are all carefully included and further decoration of the parts was not expected in French music of this period unlike in Italian music. However, more experienced players should feel free to add a little more decoration at the final cadences of the slow movements. None of the movements have repeated sections and it is clear from the flow of the music that this is not an omission. Missing slurs have been added (dashed lines) along with a few phrasing suggestions. 

The arrangement includes a clarinet which would not have been  available until over 30 years after publication but this arrangement is most likely to be played on modern instruments so it gives a modern woodwind quartet the opportunity to play music of this period in the appropriate style. Players of intermediate ability will enjoy this piece.

Psalm 19 – The Heavens Declare - Quintet for Winds and Piano ♫ transcribed for brass, woodwind, and string ensembles ♫ This composition was written for 5 music educators to perform at a fundraiser for music programs in our school district. It has been transcribed with flexible instrumentation so that it could be performed by brass, woodwind, or string quartets (plus piano), a creative mix of instruments (choose an instrumentation for each of the 5 parts) or a small band. ♫ The text comes from the beginning verses of Psalm 19 that point out that the skies bear witness to the glory and creative power of YHWH (sometimes represented by the LORD, Yahweh, or Jehovah) the God who created heaven and earth. The laws of nature, The laws of nature controlling the uncounted stars spread across almost limitless space, the vast number of light years to the closest star, … a person doesn’t need the words of religious instruction to see evidence of God’s work.

Quartet No. 3 is the missing work of Ramsoe's five quartets.  This movement is peppy and solidly Romantic brass music and a superb sample of Ramsoe's creative, lyric, and clever composition style.  If you like his other quartets, you'll love this one.  There are substitute parts so this can be played by a variety of combinations of instruments.  Pt 1 for cornet/trumpet; pt 2 for trumpet or F horn; part 3 for trombone or F horn; and part 4 for tuba or euphonium. Playing Time: 5:00.
