Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair is one of the most enduring, and popular American songs of all times.
Characterized as a parlor song, it was written by Stephen Foster, and published by Firth, Pond & Co. of NewYork, in
1854.
In 1850, Foster married Jane Denny McDowell, whose nickname was Jennie. However, this was an unhappy
marriage, short-lived, with numerous conflicts and separations. Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair, was written as
perhaps an attempt to win his wife back. To add to his problems, Foster also ran into deep financial difficulties.
Jeanie With the Light Brown Hair was virtually unknown during its time. When it was first published, the royalties
on the ten thousand copies sold, earned just $200 for Stephen Foster. To make ends meet, he had to sell the rights to
Jeanie, as well as other songs. After his death, the rights to Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair reverted back to his
wife and daughter.
It would indeed be a pleasant surprise to Stephen Foster, if he only knew what a wide range of artists have adapted
this song to different genres. Among solo instrumentalists, Jascha Heifitz, and William Primrose have arranged it
for solo violin and viola. The big bands of Gene Krupa, and Glen Miller have recorded it. The great R & B artist,
Sam Cooke used it, as well as opera stars, Marilyn Horne and John McCormick, who added it to their concert
repertoire.
The song's frequent airplay in the 1940's, led Spike Jones to create a parody, called, I Dream of Jeanie with the
Light Blue Jeans. Les Brown in 1941, created a big band song, Joltin' Joe DiMaggio with the line.....We Dream of
Joey With the Light Brown Bat. Even Bugs Bunny got into the act. The 1960 short, From Hare To Heir, features
Bugs singing, I dream of Jeanie, she's a light brown hare
My arrangement, for woodwind quintet is written to capture a lyric, singing style, which I think Foster had in mind.

Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozartt. Arranged by Ray Thompson. Classical. 7 pages. RayThompsonMusic #5044243. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.553864).

Les petits riens (French for The Little Nothings) is a ballet in one act and three tableaux by Jean-Georges Noverre, with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and other unknown composers, possibly including François-Joseph Gossec[citation needed], first performed at the Academie Royale de Music in Paris on 11 June 1778.

While Mozart was staying in Paris, Noverre asked him to compose a new score for a ballet that he had created in Vienna in 1767. The ballet was to be danced as an interlude in the new opera Le finte gemelle by Niccolò Piccinni.[1] The opera was a flop and closed after four performances. Although the ballet music was well-received,[2] Mozart was not credited with it, and he was at the time little-known in Paris.

The score, catalogued as K. 299b, was thought lost, but it was rediscovered in the Paris Opera's archives in the late 19th century[1] and has since entered both the ballet and symphonic repertoire.Arranged wind quintet.

Composed by Heinrich Marschner. Arranged by Bill Malcolm. Multicultural,Romantic Period,World. 59 pages. Bill Malcolm #5221851. Published by Bill Malcolm (A0.786202).

This relatively unknown overture is a gem and Marschner's overtures need reviving (check out Der Vampyr also available on sheetmusicplus.com). The parts are arranged so, if printed 2-sided, the page turns should come out manageable. I don't know much about the associated opera, but this overture is good enough be stand-alone.
