Easy Piano - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.914979 Composed by ROBERT VAN HORNE. Children,Christmas,Holiday,Instructional,Pop. Score. 5 pages. White Piano International Publishing #6623405. Published by White Piano International Publishing (A0.914979). SILENT GIFTS Early Intermediate Piano Soloby ROBERT VAN HORNE 5 Pages Approx. Performance Time: 3:00 Minutes On the evening of November 9, 2009, while rehearsing some Christmas music at the piano, inspiration for composing a holiday piano solo came to me after playing the beautiful Christmas classic Silent Night. After a few minutes of creating a melody, I quickly wrote down some of the ideas for this song while imagining the anticipation of Christmas with family and friends and the traditional custom of giving gifts. What would be the most natural gift to give anyone, I thought. After finishing the song, the answer became apparent - the silent gift of a smile and thus the title Silent Gifts. This Early Intermediate arrangement of Robert's Christmas piano solo Silent Gifts is clearly and carefully notated with dynamic marks, phrasing, suggested fingerings, pedal indications, and appropriate musical terms for playing. Silent Gifts arranged as an Early Intermediate piano solo is a wonderful Holiday selection for students, ideal for teaching, recitals and enjoyment. Both Piano/Vocal and Chorus arrangements of Silent Gifts are also available. The Original Early Advanced edition is also available. A 2009 original YouTube video of Robert's premier performance is available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nQWbgBNbwU Robert is a member of ASCAP.Official Website: www.robertvanhorne.comEmail: rvh@robertvanhorne.com

Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1255713 Composed by Ben Fielding and Brooke Ligertwood. Arranged by Brian Buda. Christian,Contemporary,Praise & Worship,Religious,Wedding. Score. 16 pages. Budaful music #849222. Published by budaful music (A0.1255713). This is a piano solo arrangement of Hillsong's, What A Beautiful Name. String Quartet available. From the beginning it's apparent that it does not follow the chords from the 'traditional' worship song so it works best as a solo. It's a perfect piece for the intermediate pianist to use in preludes and weddings. It's easy to play through the entire arrangement, although there are options to cut it short– or keep it going– if desired. Form: V1, Chorus, V2, Chorus, Bridge, Chorus 2X. Play 2 verses with choruses, or the entire arrangement. 3 key options available: D, C, and Eb. (It was originally arranged in D, then transposed to C & Eb. Some chord voicings and fingerings might need to be adjusted in those keys.).

Chamber Orchestra - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.534697 Composed by Germaine Tailleferre. 20th Century. Score and parts. 63 pages. Musik Fabrik Music Publishing #6245161. Published by Musik Fabrik Music Publishing (A0.534697). This Concerto, composed in the 60s for the French Radio, was never performed and it was rumoured that Tailleferre, always trusting with her performers, had given the score to a visiting Guitarist from South America in the hopes that it would be performed there. Tailleferre personally considered this work to be on of her strongest and regretted that it was never performed during her lifetime. Her description of the work motivated several musicologists and guitarists to spend many hours searching for the work in music archives and libraries. The missing score was finally located during the Fall of 2003. A musician visiting the French Radio was intrigued however by a new addition to the catalogue and it was quickly confirmed that this was indeed the missing manuscript that so manmusicologists and guitarists had been looking for all of these years. The work is in four movements and is scored for 2011/1000 tymp/harp/celesta/strings and lasts aproximately 17 minutes. The work is more in the style of a concerto grosso than that of a virtuosic concerto, with the guitars frequently used in a solo group with the harp and celesta, which adds a very interesting orchestral colour. The writing is varied, ranging from a medieval cantilène style in the slow movement to free atonal sections in the second Scherzo movement and in the first movement. The work ends in a movement which sounds influenced by South American Popular music. Inspite of this apparent stylistic disparity, the composition remains extremely coherent and shows a great deal of energy and a kind of poetic strangeness. This item is the full score. The parts are on rental from the publisher. A piano reduction and the solo parts are available for sale.

Chamber,Contest,Early Music,Festival,Historic,Medieval. 38 pages. Jmsgu3 #852647. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1259372). INSTRUMENTATION: 2 Clarinets in Bb, 1 Alto Clarinet, 1 Bass Clarinet1. Kyrie2. Gloria3. Credo4. Sanctus5. Agnus dei6. Ite missa estGuillaume de Machaut composed the Messe de Nostre Dame, also known as the Mass of Our Lady, in the early 1360s. He wrote the mass for the Cathedral at Reims, where he served as a canon, a permanent clergy member. According to a rubric found at the Cathedral, it would have likely been performed for the Saturday Lady Mass. Guillaume de Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame is significant in the history of music for several reasons:1. It is the first complete setting of the Ordinary of the Mass by a single composer that has survived.2. It is a unified mass, meaning that the composer selected relevant chants for each section as the borrowed tenor.3. It was composed in four voices, which was unusual at the time.4. The texts of both Gloria and Credo are quite lengthy, and therefore Machaut set these movements in a style reminiscent of the earlier discant style, having short phrases, similar rhythmic motion in all parts, and a low ratio of notes per syllable of text, both ending with long, rhapsodic sections for the final word, Amen.Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame is a landmark in musical history, but it is far from being avant-garde merely for the sake of uniqueness. It is considered to be a culmination of the musical style of the Ars Nova period, which was characterized by complex polyphonic textures and rhythmic innovations. The mass is also significant because it was composed during a time of great political and social upheaval in Europe, and it reflects the changing attitudes towards religion and music during this period. Overall, Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame is a significant work that represents a culmination of the musical style of the Ars Nova period and reflects the changing attitudes towards religion and music during the 14th century. The mass consists of five movements: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei, followed by the dismissal Ite, missa est. The tenor of the Kyrie is based on Vatican Kyrie IV, the Sanctus, and Agnus correspond to Vatican Mass XVII, and the Ite is on Sanctus VIII. The Gloria and Credo have no apparent chant basis, although they are stylistically related to one another. The mass is a unified mass, meaning that the composer selected relevant chants for each section as the borrowed tenor. The Messe de Nostre Dame is significant in the history of music because it is the first complete setting of the Ordinary of the Mass by a single composer that has survived. It is also significant because it was composed during a time of great political and social upheaval in Europe, and it reflects the changing attitudes towards religion and music during this period. Overall, the Messe de Nostre Dame was an important part of the liturgical practices of the time, and it is still regarded as a masterpiece of medieval music and of all religious music.

Melody: Ornaments - Perform, Compose, Understand Series. This pack comprises a piece called Take It In Turns, worksheets and questions which relate to the piece. It is all about understanding ornamentation.Welcome to the PCU Series for classroom-based groups. This series focuses on learning by doing; there are many accomplished performers within our school classrooms throughout the world, but my years of experience has taught me that many of these students learn to play by rote – literally be learning one note followed by another – without gaining full understanding of how the pieces work musically and theoretically. Indeed, some of them can perform to a high standard using this method, but then really struggle with composition and general musical understanding later in their educational careers.I equate this to learning to speak sentences in a foreign language without fully understanding what those sentences actually mean.So who is this book for?It is for music teachers to use with their students who are learning to create exam-level compositions within a school environment. It is ideal for courses such as the American High School Diploma, GCSE, IGCSE, SCS, HKCEE, IB(MYP), SPM, GCEO, CCEF, HKCEE, VSSD, GES or ICSE.It is designed to cater for almost any instrument due to the parts being provided in many different keys and clefs (including tab and bass tab). Drum parts are intentionally not provided as drummers still need to have a good understanding of non-percussive elements such as melody and harmony; I would suggest that they play a keyboard part for the purposes of learning about composition.You can also download backing tracks of all pieces in this series by searching:Classroom Performance educational pack: MELODY backing tracksThese contain parts 2-5, allowing part 1 to be played live over the top.How to use this resourceThis pack comprises three stages, the third of which should be gained from success with the first two:1.
