SKU: A0.1418039

Composed by Liz Nedela. 20th Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Contest,Festival. Score. 12 pages. Liz Nedela #999589. Published by Liz Nedela (A0.1418039).

This piece is based on a poem by e.e. cummings. The subject matter is the special

heaven that would be created for the poet’s mother. The music shadows, augments,

and illuminates the rendition of the poem. In keeping with poetic symbolism, the piano

uses motifs and musical phrases to emulate the soprano throughout the piece

The tone of the piece is somewhat minor and modal; however, please portray a light-

hearted interpretation—it should never be heavy or dark. The poet is uplifting his mother

to the highest stature possible, and portrays his father as devoted and loving towards

her.

The key is atonal; however, various tonality implications are heard throughout. The

piano pedal should be complimentary to the piece, with care not to be noticed or over-

bearing.

Please Note: there are two other versions of this piece by this composer:

One is for solo piano

One is for the ensemble of Soprano, Violin, Bassoon, Cello

Also please note: the mp3 is from computer notation; the the soprano does not sing words; 
please sing along with the mp3 following the text.

By Text: John Wesley, - Digital KB performance plus live by Blake Davidson. By Francis Osentowski, DMA University of North Texas. Arranged by Original composition. 20th Century,Contemporary,Praise & Worship,Spiritual. Score. 62 pages. Francis Osentowski #686837. Published by Francis Osentowski (A0.1082668).

DIRECTIONS FOR SINGING is my setting of the well-known text by John Wesley giving a litany of advice to congregational singers. My colleague at North Lake College was an outstanding bass/baritone and a church choir director. He handed me a copy of Wesley's directions for singers...found in many old hymnals...and we both enjoyed good laughs at how accurate the words are to modern congregations. My song is a type of theater presentation...or a short cantata and portrays the contrasting emotions in the text. For example: Sing lustily and with good courage ...singing the songs of Satan! Will be a dramatic high point! But, Wesley's beautiful ending makes a great conclusion. Above all sing spiritually. Have and eye to God in every word you sing Directions requires a good pianist but the voice part doesn't require a huge range. Note: there is a Mezzo Soprano score enclosed.

Composed by Daniel Burwasser. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score. 22 pages. Head and Stem #705702. Published by Head and Stem (A0.1102297).

The three poems presented in Reflections were chosen for their varied dramatic and emotional content. The music shifts from peaceful solitude in the first song, to impending doom in the second, to dark sarcasm in the final song. REVIEWS “Little Fanfares for the Common Man and Woman� ...composer Daniel Burwasser forms quite an acceptable union with the words in his Reflections, perhaps Ms. (Ilsa) Gilbert’s most searching and insightful poem of the evening sung with taste and assurance by mezzo soprano Oreen Zeitlin... --The Music Connoisseur, Vol.2, No.1 “I Hear America Singing� (On The Occasion of American Independence Day) ... (a) series of extraordinary songs. The music is sunshine brilliant, its rays are reflected in the crystalline notes of the piano (like Debussy’s songs). -- Haik (translated from the Armenian)

Composed by Dave Flippo - music, Marie Yuen - lyrics. Broadway,Jazz,Musical/Show. Score. 20 pages. David William Flippo #4775071. Published by David William Flippo (A0.995986).

Three songs sung by Christian De Neuvilette in the full length musical Roxane of Bergerac Audio for each can be found at www.flippomusic.com/roxane  . The pieces include The Me That is Me,  The New Language and I Love You. The first pieces is a lament about his romantic situation, the second a bouncy, humorous piece and the third a humorous waltz that portrays his failed attempt to poetically speak to Roxane of his love for her.    

Roxane is a  romantic action-comedy date musical about Roxane's refusal to be merely decorative when it comes to living her life, and this while questing for True Love and her Hero of True Romance.

The musical language is a blend of Jazz and Renaissance musical styles that parallels the mash-up of today’s slang with the preciosity (refined speech) of some 16th century Parisians.
