About the Composition

I wrote this when I was very angry at the world.  Someday I might meet a black hound on a dark night... and we’ll both go hunting together.

Black Dogs,  Black Hounds, The Hounds of Hell,  Dogs of Hell,  Gabriel Hounds, Yell Hounds,  Barghest,  Black Dog of the Hanging Hills, Gurt Dog or the Hounds of Herne the Hunter… by whatever name, they are a common feature in the folklore of the British Isles.  The Black Hounds of Cŵn Annwn are the spectral hounds of Annwn, the otherworld of Welsh myth.  Early Christians came to dub these mythical creatures as The Hounds of Hell or Dogs of Hell and erroneously theorized they were therefore owned by Satan.  However, the Annwn of medieval Welsh tradition is an otherworldly paradise and not a hell or abode of dead souls. The Black Hounds are a nocturnal apparition, and their appearance was regarded as a portent of death. They are supposed to hunt on specific nights in the autumn and winter when it is believed that the howling of these huge dogs foretold death to anyone who heard them.

Composed by Craig Armstrong. Arranged by Marmpy. Contemporary. Score and parts. 9 pages. Marmpy Music #6333331. Published by Marmpy Music

String Ensemble - Level 2 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.549211

Composed by Gabrieli. Arranged by James M. Guthrie, ASCAP. Renaissance,Standards. 88 pages. Jmsgu3 #3464715. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.549211).

A musical monument: the first composition to employ dynamics. Instrumentation: 2 violins, 1 viola, 5 cellos 1 double bass. Arranged in two antiphonal choirs: I - string quartet, II - cello choir w/bass. The double bass part assumes low c extension; however, a non-extension bass part is included.

Giovanni Gabrieli's Sonata Pian e Forte is essential as it represents the shift from the Renaissance to the Baroque period. It is part of his 1597 Sacrae symphoniae, which contains sixty-three choral and instrumental works, many in multi-choir formations. It is the first known composition in history to employ dynamics, with Gabrieli using specific notation to indicate instrumentation and experimenting with assembling massive instrumental forces into isolated groups separated by space. This innovation contributed heavily to the Baroque Concertato style and the development of the sonata, a musical form that came into general use toward the end of the sixteenth century. The structure of the piece is defined by the dialogue between two instrumental choirs, making it a key example of Gabrieli's influential contributions to the transition in musical style during his time.

Composed by Gabrielle Liriano. 20th Century,Classical,Contemporary,Multicultural,World. Score and parts. 22 pages. Art Haus Music Publishing #782800. Published by Art Haus Music Publishing (A0.1183082).

This piece is a celebration of my heritage and ancestry. By incorporating aspects of Palo music in a traditionally Euro-centric style of music I hope to expand the boundaries for what is possible in contemporary classical music as it reflects the eclectic collage of where I come from. I hope to specifically illuminate the underrepresented aspects of my identity in composition as it is those aspects that can create uniqueness and innovation in the long history and tradition classical music. 

Performing my music is a rebellious act. 

Centuries of composers have been misguided to dismiss the study of complex rhythm and groove as it is a subject associated with the music of Africa. Now with time and exhaustion of European principles we must look to the countries of Africa with reverence for our missing education on one of the vital ingredients of music. 

I hope you enjoy the kaleidoscope of colors and weaved rhythms that come together to make this piece come alive! 

This piece is dedicated to all the ancestors that came before me.

May I honor their lives with music. 

Format: Transposed Score in Tabloid (11'' x 17'')

Instrumentation: 

1 Piccolo, 1 Flute, 1 Oboe, 1 Clarinet in Bb, 1 Bassoon, 1 Horn in F, 1 Trumpet in Bb 1, 1 Trumpet in Bb 2, 1 Trombone, 1 Tuba, 1 Güira, 1 Woodblock, Congas 1 (3 Drums), Congas 2 (2 Drums), 1 Timbales, 5 Violin I, 5 Violin II, 3 Viola, 6 Violoncello, 2 Contrabass

SKU: A0.1324834

Composed by James M. Guthrie. 21st Century,Chamber,Contemporary. 105 pages. Jmsgu3 #913046. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1324834).

The Brass Canzona holds significant importance in music history as it influenced the development of instrumental music and later musical genres. The Canzona, derived from the Franco-Flemish and Parisian chansons, was an instrumental form characterized by livelier, rhythmic material and distinct sections. Brass canzonas, such as Giovanni Gabrieli's La Spiritata, were composed to maximize the resonance of instruments and the performance space, often performed by various combinations of trombones and trumpets. These canzonas influenced the evolution of the fugue in the Baroque era and were direct ancestors of the 17th-century sonata da chiesa. Additionally, the ensemble canzonas of Gabrieli and Girolamo Frescobaldi led the way to the trio sonata, a dominant chamber genre of the Baroque era. Therefore, the Brass Canzona's significance lies in its influence on the evolution of instrumental music and its contribution to the development of later musical forms. While modern renditions may encounter challenges related to the range of parts and achieving a balanced sound with the organ or other instruments, they continue to provide valuable insights into Canzona's historical context and musical qualities. Therefore, modern Brass Canzonas are essential for preserving and interpreting this influential musical form, contributing to the development of instrumental music and later musical genres.

Composed by Traditional/Anonymous. Arranged by Socrates Arvanitakis. Classical,Early Music,Folk,Traditional. Individual part. 41 pages. Socrates Arvanitakis #753692. Published by Socrates Arvanitakis (A0.1153431).

This is the thirteenth volume of an extensive collection of folk songs arranged for the classical guitar mostly in two-part counterpoint. The arrangements are of moderate difficulty and the aims of this publication are to familiarise, entertain and educate guitarists (and other musicians) with a melodic repertoire of lasting aesthetic value, under the light of contrapuntal treatment. The thirty five volumes of this collection can certainly be printed on paper if so desired and there are a few pages in each volume, either blank or with photographs of various musicians, which can be inserted at will in any place for the correct ordering of left and right hand pages so that page turns can be avoided. The principle of avoiding page turns has been maintained in all volumes, but this edition is also designed with mobile electronic devices in mind such as tablets etc, using the environment and facilities of a score reading application, towards a paperless world, at least in music. Therefore the size of the staves is bigger than usual for ease of reading on a small screen but not big enough to exceed the limit of a two-page view. Active internal links for navigating from thematic indexes to particular songs and back to indexes have been added, and also external internet links to sites that give further information for the 945 songs of this first collection for classical guitar.
