Piano Solo - Digital Download SKU: A0.507255 Composed by Heather Cattanach. 20th Century,Contemporary,Instructional. Score. 3 pages. Published by Heather Cattanach (A0.507255). Apus, Late Intermediate Piano Solo, is the name for the southern hemisphere constellation representing the Bird of Paradise. However, the name actually translates as “footless�, owing to the Dutch explorer’s mistaken belief that the bird had no feet. The Bird of Paradise does have feet as well as beautiful feathers. This piece is based on the octatonic scale (semi-tone, tone alternating series) which was often used by Olivier Messiaen, who (by the way) incorporated bird song into some of his compositions. This mysterious sounding piece is from “88 Constellations� a collection by Heather Cattanach featuring one piece of piano music for each of the 88 constellations (to match the number of keys on a standard piano). Performance Time 2 minutes. 2 pages. (General Instructional, Modern, Repertoire, Recital, 21st Century).

Each of them is based on one symmetrical scale defined by Olivier Messiaen and maintained in a different jazz style. The scales were used mainly in a big-band arrangement, but often the construction of individual improvised fragments forces soloists to use symmetrical scales, in jazz commonly not used as a separate color or timbre. Grand Prize on 2nd ISAC International Popular Music Composition Competition 2023INSTRUMENTATION: Wind 1 (Soprano Saxophone)Wind 2 (Alto Saxophone)Wind 3 (Tenor Saxophone)Wind 4 (Tenor Saxophone)Wind 5 (Baritone Saxophone)Trumpet 1Trumpet 2, FlugelhornTrumpet 3Trumpet 4Trombone 1Trombone 2Trombone 3Bass TromboneGuitarPianoDouble BassDrums.

Based on an excerpt from the Four Quartets by T.S.Eliot is polystilistic in idiom and in concertante style. Time present and time past Are both perhaps present in time future And time future contained in time past. If all time is eternally present All time is unredeemable. What might have been is an abstraction Remaining a perpetual possibility Only in a world of speculation. What might have been and what has been Point to one end, which is always present. (T.S.Eliot, Four Quartets)Τα μέÏ�η:I.Adagio misterioso (Outer Space, Gravity Zero)II.Allegro (Into a time vortex)III.L'istesso tempo (Escape) to Antonio Vivaldi & Dmitri ShostakovitchIV.Andante rubato (Tranquillity Nebula) to Olivier MessiaenV.Allegro (Gravitational Disorder) to Keith EmersonVI.Adagio misterioso (Eternal Present)Premier by Ionian Islands Festival Ensemble (Alexandros Michailidis, Helias Sdoukos, Stefanos Nassos) at Ionian Academy Theater in 2017.The work was chosen by International Society for the Contemporary Music to represent Greece in 2018 ISCM World New Music Days in BeijingModern Music Festival, China.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1027605 Composed by James Kennerley. Christian,Christmas,Contemporary,Sacred. Octavo. 30 pages. James Kennerley #2119771. Published by James Kennerley (A0.1027605). The Missa Sanctae Mariae Virginis – literally Mass of Saint Mary the Virgin – was composed for the Episcopal church of Saint Mary the Virgin, New York City, where the composer was Music Director & Organist from 2008 to 2013. The Kyrie was composed in 2016. The title makes reference to the name of the church, but also makes reference to the principal source of inspiration: two ancient plainsong melodies that accompany Marian texts (Salve regina and Ave maris stella). The Mass is composed in a vain that is influenced by the great parody Masses of Renaissance masters Palestrina, Lassus, and others. Nods are also made to the twentieth century, and particularly to the music of Herbert Howells and the Anglican tradition, and also to Jean Langlais, Olivier Messiaen, and similar French musical trends. It features a wide range of moods, from scintillating and exotic harmonies to thrilling rhythmic passages. The work is composed for 8-part choir with solo sections for additional voices from within the choir. The Mass can be performed complete as part of a church service. Likewise, any of the movements will work as independent compositions which makes them suitable for concert performance.

Large Ensemble Choir - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1022039 Composed by Fredrik Schwenk. 20th Century,Christian,Contemporary,Sacred. Score and parts. 2 pages. Fredrik Schwenk #6319845. Published by Fredrik Schwenk (A0.1022039). The present edition contains the score of the interludio ecclesiastico come inserto tra il Credo e il Sanctus della Messa in re maggiore di Antonin Dvorak per coro, organo ed orchestra. The idea to compose a shorter work closely related to Antonin Dvořák's Mass in D major op. 86 came from the director of the course, Prof. Annedore Hacker-Jakobi, from which, after the composer's intensive study of Dvořák's tonally very bright Mass, a dark intermezzo developed as an insert between the Credo and the Sanctus. In the process, Dvořák's scoring was adopted unchanged. The frame text comes from the Credo and was deliberately chosen in reference to Olivier Messiaen's work of the same name. The central text Salvum me fac comes from Psalm 68 and has come down to us as a Gregorian responsorial chant. The title et expecto, intentionally omits the s in et exspecto contained in the ordinarium missae and emphasizes the contradictory meaning between the (Er)warten and the (Er)schauen.

Inspired by the opening melody of Olivier Messiaen’s (1908-1992) SERENE ALLELUIAS FROM A SOUL LONGING FOR HEAVEN, from ASCENSION DAY -Four Symphonic Meditations for organ, the piece begins softly with a chant-like melody. As the work progresses, sound volume increases that symbolizes the coming of divine light.
