Choral Choir (SA) - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1015164 Composed by Timothy Piper. Christian,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Octavo. 7 pages. Timothy Piper #4747147. Published by Timothy Piper (A0.1015164). Glorificamus Deum is a setting of Psalm 23. This setting works well in both a church service and a concert setting.It takes the very traditional words of the psalm, and spins them with a fresh new approach. The music takes you on a journey from a quiet beginning, into a jazzy-pop expression of wonder as the words joyfully proclaim that goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.... An added refrain of Glorificamus Deum adds an accent of exuberance throughout the piece. This piece of music is not difficult and is accessible to most choirs. Mostly sung in unison, it goes into two parts briefly, but the two parts are canonic and thus, easy to master. The piece is musically interesting for the conductor of a youth ensemble. The range is just over an octave and has young people singing in their head voices. There are opportunities for controlled expressive singing, and also opportunities for more exuberant let-it-out singing. The piece goes back and forth between the major and minor modes. It has one particularly challenging interval with a descending major 7th. As well, there is a large dynamic range and some excellent opportunities for rubato and watching the conductor carefully in the softer, more expressive sections. This piece is fun, melodic, and will be a favorite with every chorister, the instant it is learned.

Unison Chorus/2-Part Chorus - Digital Download SKU: C6.646018024 Composed by Diane Beckstread. Growing in Grace. General, Missions. Accompaniment MP3. Growing In Grace - Digital #646018024. Published by Growing In Grace - Digital (C6.646018024). This special piece from Diane Beckstead uses water themes to explain how we will share with others as an overflow of God's love for us. Scored for unison/optional two-part voices, this lightly syncopated song flows seamlessly between sections. The second verse provides optional two-part singing. The memorable Bridge includes echo-like singing between Parts 1 & 2, followed by a more developed refrain with additional harmonies. The piece concludes quietly with simple harmonies.

Guitar - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1162362 Composed by Traditional Scottish Folk. Arranged by Brian Streckfus. Celtic,Folk,Holiday,Instructional,Irish,Traditional. Guitar Tab. 2 pages. Brian Streckfus #762722. Published by Brian Streckfus (A0.1162362). 1. Arranged for guitar. 2. Guitar TAB added. 3. Re-harmonized to be idiomatic for guitar and have more adventerous harmony. 4. Grace notes added.5. The grace notes, uncommon harmony, and overly drenched G major pentatonic sound lead to a more Irish/Celtic/Scottish idiom, as if this was written for bag pipes. 6. Too many versions of public domain songs will just phone in the chords in my opinion with a I IV and V7. This version is a bit jazzed up, which may not be what you looking for. If you are looking for real basic accompianiment this isn't the version for you, though I do try to use as many open strings on the guitar as possible, and the chords are often small.7. The other problem I often see with public domain songs is that the famous cowboy guitar chords most versions use lead to a lot of clunky part writing in my opinion (no thought of tendency tones, no thought of smooth voice leading, parralel 8ves and 5ths, doubled 3rds, etc). Those voicings are easier to sight-read, but are also not super creative, and as a teacher, I don't exactly want a student to see the same G Major voicing forever. That gives this false impression that that G major vocing is somehow superior. 8. Another small issue I see with public domain songs is that the vocal melody is sometimes not in the famous cowboy guitar chord. There is nothing wrong with that, and sometimes you want that, but since I like to train my singing with the help of my guitar, I like when arrangements make the vocal melody easy to add or remove on guitar. I can easily play a sophisticated solo version of this in a coffee shop, or I can just look at the chord nomenclature and see the song only from a rhythm section point of view when in a full band, when usually you purposely want to contribute less.9. Notes with an upward stem represent those notes being the original melody. This give arrangement a lot of replay value because a skillfull performer can improvise the background harmonies.

Brass Ensemble Horn,Trombone,Trumpet,Tuba - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.726032 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Todd Marchand. Christmas,Folk. Score and parts. 17 pages. Con Spirito Music #2958109. Published by Con Spirito Music (A0.726032). “On December Five-and-Twenty� brings together three folk tunes from different regions of Europe. The first, “Fum, Fum, Fum,� is a Catalan carol from northeastern Spain. The second, “Pat-a-Pan,� comes from the Burgundy region of east-central France. The third, “Touro-Louro-Louro!� comes from the Provence region of southeastern France.Each tune bears an onomatopoetic title (a word that phonetically imitates or suggests the source of the sound that it describes): The refrain “fum, fum, fum� in the Catalan carol is an onomatopoeia for the strumming of a guitar. “Pat-a-pan� — the title of the Burgundian carol — imitates the sound of a drum being struck. “Touro-louro-louro!� — the title of the Provencal carol — suggests the singing of birds. (A similar onomatopoeia, “turelurelu,� appears in “Pat-a-Pan,� suggesting the sound of a fife, or flute, being played.)This is a delightful arrangement that is enjoyable to play and pleasing to listeners. ©Copyright 2014 Todd Marchand / Con Spirito Music.
