Schott Music - Digital #Q47101. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q47101). I had written the Cadman Requiem in 1989 for the Hilliard Ensemble in memory of my friend and sound engineer Bill Cadman, who was killed in the Lockerbie air crash. His death affected me very deeply and, pending a recording of this piece, Manfred Eicher asked if I might like to develop an instrumental work from this, using the same instrumentation for accompaniment and retaining the same opening bars as part of a new ECM album. The piece is after the Requiem therefore in the musical sense of being based on it, in the chronological sense of following on from it, and in the spiritual sense of representing that state which remains after mourning is (technically) over. I wrote the piece in Venice in September 1990 and finished it in Oslo on the day of the recording, where I added the electric guitar of Bill Frisell. This, I felt, blended particularly well with low strings (2 violas and cello). Coincidentally, having used certain distortion effects on the guitar, we found that we were recording on the twentieth anniversary of the death of Jimi Hendrix. Within the music I use one or two modified extracts from the Cadman Requiem itself, and from its common source Invention of Tradition, for which Bill Cadman had done the sound design.The piece is dedicated to the two Bills (Cadman and Frisell).

Small Ensemble Cello,Clarinet,Flute,Violin - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.976439 Composed by Scott Anthony Shell. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 29 pages. Tikadori Music #548961. Published by Tikadori Music (A0.976439). Full score with parts. -- Composition date 2014 -- Approx duration = 8:15 -- PROGRAM NOTES: -- This piece explores and combines various composition techniques that are of interest to me. One is the interruption of expectation in regards to the perception of time and timelessness, where the listener is expecting something to happen, and when it appears like something is about to change, it is only a tease and it goes back to a static state. Another is my interest in utilizing tonality and dissonance as equal in the palette of sound options. Another interest is showcasing the virtuosity of the performers with interesting and challenging solos, that not only require individual dexterity, but also a tightness among the performers. And finally, just the joy of the sounds these four instruments create together. -- Contact me: info@scottanthonyshell.com.

Solo and SS choir divisi (a cappella) - Moderately Easy - Digital Download SKU: MQ.56-0031-E Composed by Howard Goodall. Instrument parts. 5 pages. Duration 4 minutes, 39 seconds. MorningStar Music Publishers - Digital Sheet Music #56-0031-E. Published by MorningStar Music Publishers - Digital Sheet Music (MQ.56-0031-E). Latin. Genesis 20:13; Numbers 11:17.Written for the Enchanted Voices CD, this is one of many settings of texts either from the Beatitudes (or springing from them) available from this composer. For Solo and SS divisi, a cappella, the music has a light, ethereal feeling. “Beati� can be taken as a sort of “Blessed are they� prefix for the movements which are not direct quotes from the Beatitudes. This movement is a unison, chant-like setting of the Latin texts for Genesis 20:13 (“Thou shalt do me this kindness…�) and Numbers 11:17 (“And I will take of thy spirit�). The soloist begins and sometimes takes over from the choral voices. Mostly unison except for about ten measures (out of the 69) in two-part texture and four measures in three parts. Duration 4:39Instrumentalists play from the choral score.
