By Performance of Eighteen in Italy by Marsha Anderson , Francis Osentowski, Piano. By Francis Osentowski, DMA University of North Texas, Jerry McElveen, Texts. Arranged by Original composition. Contemporary,Contest,Festival,Instructional,Opera. Score. 29 pages. Francis Osentowski #686049. Published by Francis Osentowski (A0.1081918).

LETTERS FROM A POET IN ITALY is a song cycle for soprano and soprano. This site includes of all four songs: 1. Eighteen in Italy 2. Caregiver 3. Colosseum 4. DAVID The cycle is my setting of poems by Jerry McElveen, my friend and an awesome poet and professor at Richland College. Jerry wrote several poems during a tour of Italy made up of a group of faculty and spouses. On our last day in Rome...he surprised everyone by performing his new works. The minute he started reading I knew this would be a great text to set to music. This cycle has been performed often in the DFW Tx. area...first by Marsha Anderson, my colleague at North Lake College and later by the young soprano Erin Acorn. Marsha earned a living in Italy for over 20 years as an opera singer and taught me lots of valuable details about the substiles of composing for this vocal style. You can hear her beautiful voice on recordings we made at a performance in the concert hall at UTA Arlington. In retrospect, I like the tempos to relax more than these recordings, so the vocal lines have more time to breath. The cycle also received a positive review by the famous music critic for the Dallas Morning News, Scott Cantrell. Thank you to Scott! I kept the vocal lines away from extreme high and low pitches...and several singers have told me the voice lines are very comfortable for them. Singable by professionals AND young sopranos.

By Cheryl Prazak. By Jon Burr. Arranged by Jon Burr. Country,Pop,Wedding. Score. 9 pages. JbQ Media #965725. Published by jbQ Media (A0.1380997).

Piano/vocal arrangement of Twice On Sunday
Grade 3 pop for alto voice and piano
This compelling song is a reminiscence of a long, successful marriage, which would work especially well at a wedding anniversary celebration.
Composed by Jon Burr, with lyrics by Cheryl Prazak, with vocal on the video and mp3 by Samantha Jane.

The lyric is:

Just your smile, was when our love began.
Don’t know how it happened, it wasn’t in my plan
Knowing now what I didn’t know way back then,
Would I do it all again?
Every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

When I looked into your eyes, I saw something more than blue,
My reflection in your eyes told me you saw something, too.
Knowing now what I didn’t know way back then
Would I do it all again?
Every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Would I take you again, to be my dearest friend?
My buddy and my love right through until the end,
Knowing now what I didn’t know way back then,
Would I do it all again?
Every day of the week and twice on Sunday..

At first I didn't know, I was very unsure
when you asked for my hand, I felt so insecure
Took it on faith, somehow I just knew
it could work out getting married to you

From the moment when we danced, when I put my trust in you,
Magic came into my heart, I knew our love would stay true.
Knowing now what I didn’t know way back then,
Would I do it all again?
Every day of the week and twice on Sunday
Every day of the week and twice on Sunday
on Sunday
on Sunday

Composed by Amy Morales. Christian,Praise & Worship. Score. 4 pages. Amy J Morales #855286. Published by Amy J Morales (A0.1262253).

A song of comfort about God's abiding care. 

There's never been a friend so dear than He Who conquers all my fears.
A friend Who's constant and so near - He's always there, He's always there.
When my faith seems small and weak, then His promises I'll seek.
And through His Word, I'll hear Him speak.
He's always there. He's always there. 

For every hour of every day, He'll walk beside you all the way. 
For every minute that passes by, throughout your life, He will abide.
There's not a moment that He's not there to guide your steps and show His care.
So take it to the Lord in prayer, He's always there. He's always there.

Oh, how wonderful to know that my Father loves me so.
No matter where on earth I go, He's always there, He's always there.
And when my journey here's complete, I'll worship at my Savior's feet. 
Forever in that land so sweet. He's always there. He's always there.  

For every hour of every day, He'll walk beside you all the way. 
For every minute that passes by, throughout your life, He will abide.
There's not a moment that He's not there to guide your steps and show His care.
So take it to the Lord in prayer, He's always there. He's always there.

Brigadoon is a musical with a book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner, and music by Frederick Loewe. This song From This Day On, from the musical, has become a standard. It features two American tourists who stumble upon Brigadoon, a mysterious Scottish village that appears for only one day every 100 years. Tommy, one of the tourists, falls in love with Fiona, a young woman from Brigadoon. This version features a root-based chord blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements. We also added some pretty cool left-hand fills for your listening (playing?) pleasure - we hope you like what we've done to make this arrangement unique!

Remember - An original composition with music and lyrics by Hannah Baldoz

Dedicated to someone special. I hope you will always remember that you are loved.

Lyrics:
'Don't forget that I still love you,' was all I could say. I remember being scared to let you go that day. But I, I hope... I hope you know that you are more than enough. I pray you'll find yourself and never give up. I hope above all else you'll remember you are loved. Life is tough and you have been hurt. Everything seems wrong. Just hang in there. You're a fighter. I know you are strong. I hope you chase your dreams and always go far. I pray you'll never forget who you are. I hope that you'll remember how loved you are. Maybe for now this is the end, but if someday we meet again, know in me you'll still have a friend. And even though we fell through, I'm thankful for whatever once was true. You changed my life and I will always remember you. Even though my heart is broken, I'll remember you. I still see the good in you and I hope you do too.

I discovered this ancient Greek hymn from the year 296 and was inspired to create music for it since there was none, and ended up adding original lyrics for a third verse along the way. This song features lilting, minor melodies in a Celtic style, with a flowing piano accompaniment for an altogether ethereal piece of music, perfect for special music during a church service or even congregational singing led by a small choir or lead singer. The main melody is kept very simple and singable to make it easy for a congregation to learn quickly and sing along right away, while the descant and piano part add deep richness and complexity to support the beauty of the lyrics.

This is a good song for Trinity Sunday or any evensong or funeral service, as it references evening light and the sun descending, while praising the Father, Son, and Spirit. 

The file includes the complete score, as well as piano and vocal parts separately for your printing convenience - it will save quite a few pages on everyone's music stand or piano!

Although the original was recorded in F# minor, this version is in G Minor for more playability.
