Organ - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q6228 Poème symphonique. Transcription by Jean Guillou. Composed by Franz Liszt. Arranged by Jean Guillou. This edition: Sheet music. Organ - Symphonic Poem - transcription. Downloadable. Duration 14' 30. Schott Music - Digital #Q6228. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6228). German • English • French.Orpheus is one of 12 symphonic poems composed by Franz Liszt between 1848 and 1858. Liszt regarded these compositions as representing a higher form of musical creation. Their genesis in what he described as a poetic idea allowed him to favour freedom of expression over the constraints of form. The score of 'Orpheus' was first performed on 16 February 1854, under the baton of the composer, as the curtain rose for a production of Gluck's opera 'Orpheus' in Weimar. It had been inspired in particular by the contemplation in the Louvre museum in Paris of an Etruscan vase despicting Orpheus as a symbol of beauty and civilisation, mitigating the brutality of the world through the power of his art. This symphonic poem was first transcribed for organ in about 1860 by Alexander Wilhelm Gottschalk (1827-1908), one of Liszt's pupils. It appears that Liszt was moved to make radical modifications to that version, in spite of which it still remains unsatisfactory. It does, however, give us the benefit of proving that Liszt, who also transcribed the work for piano duet, was not against the idea in itself of a transcription for organ. Jean Guillou's transcription is more than a simple adaptation. As far as Romantic music is concerned, he is responsible for finding appropriate equivalents to the dramatic function of instrumentation to create an atmosphere which comes as close to that of the original composition as possible, to enrich the contrapuntal texture and to contribute to the simulation of the orchestral sound.

Brass Ensemble Trombone - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.873897 By The Four Seasons. By Bob Gaudio. Arranged by Petey C. Pop,Rock. Score and parts. 8 pages. Petey C. #6342303. Published by Petey C. (A0.873897). Same as the arrangement I wrote for Horn quartet, but for Trombones! Different key, different clefs. This arrangement is geared towards university level students and professionals. ALERT: The 4th part (Trb 4/bass trombone) goes down to a low D. If played on a tenor trombone, it will require a trigger. Familiarity with tenor clef is required for parts 1 & 3.I received some consultation with a couple trombone player friends about how to best adapt my horn quartets to trombone, but I'm not a trombone player, I'm a horn player, so if you purchase this and notice any errors (notational, range, clef, etc.) that could be pretty easily fixed, let me know! I'll do my best to update this arrangement and correct any issues. I'm easily reachable by email, and my email address is on my website, peteyc.com. Hope you enjoy it!

Published by Jason Howard (A0.918797). This arrangement of Poker Face came to me suddenly while I was sitting at my piano. I was bored and looking through a collection of pop songs, when I accidentally created the opening lick of this piece. It got me thinking, What would happen if this piece had a little bit of a jazz flair? So I sat there, whirled some ideas around in my head, and this arrangement was the outcome. This arrangement is a piano/vocal solo with some optional back up vocals written as well. I hope you guys enjoy it, and leave a comment!I hope that you enjoy my arrangement!

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.939038 Composed by Christopher M. Leonard. Contemporary. Octavo. 8 pages. Christopher M. Leonard #1920379. Published by Christopher M. Leonard (A0.939038). #newfor2016 I first heard the poem Weep You No More when singing an art song written by Ivor Gurney entitled Tears. Since then I have always wanted to place it in a choral setting. There are different emotions that this song explores, but I wrote it envisioning someone comforting someone. To me it represents that death is not the end, with hints to the resurrection. Doth not the sun rise smiling When fair at even he sets?.

Contact Information: Emmett Anglin at 803-775-4400 or rabish@fromtier.com The piece is in the Public Domain and has been out of print for many years. It is typical of the ragtime music written in the early 20th Century and a lot of fun to play. It is about 3 or 4 minutes long depending on which repeats the conductor takes. It has parts not included in the original for bells, 2nd & 3rd Alto Sax and others so that it will fit well with the modern concert band. If you get it and there is any problem (wrongly transposed parts etc.) I will fix it. Just call me or e-mail me and we can talk. I've been doing this for several years now and I make every effort to eliminate mistakes but sometimes....................

Percussion - Beginning; Intermediate; Advanced - Digital Download SKU: M0.30398MEB Composed by Aquiles Priester. Percussion: Snare Drum. E-book and online audio. Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music #30398MEB. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music (M0.30398MEB). ISBN 9781619116764. 8.75x11.75 inches.Usually books become movies. The history of the seventh art is so filled with examples that it's not worth citing one specific movie. That is the natural order of things. But what when this natural order is inverted and the movie becomes a book? That is what happened with drummer Aquiles Priester. After releasing two videos where he shows his unbeatable technique, in 2013 he released Aquiles Priester's Top 100 Drum Fills, a selection of fills that he recorded with the various bands he played in - Hangar, Angra, Freakeys. So, during the recording other fills were created and, as they were interesting ideas, they ended up being included in the package. This resulted in 150 fills, 100 of which were selected for the video - 25 ended up being included as bonus tracks, including themes with Hangar, Tony MacAlpine and Midas Fate. Like everything else he does, success was immediate. The video was voted Best Educational DVD of The Year by the renowned North-American magazine Modern Drummer, another feat for a musician used to accumulating similar feats. Now Aquiles Priester's Top 100 Drum Fills has just become a book. Many people asked me for the scores of the fills shown in the video, says Aquiles, and as I had almost everything written down, I decided to make their lives easier. It is another release by a musician used to breaking barriers as in 2011, when he became the only drummer in Brazilian history to enter the ranking of Modern Drummer magazine as 5th best prog metal drummer of the world, next to names like Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, Gavin Harrison and Marco Minnemann. In 2015 Aquiles was once more nominated to take part of another poll and was elected best drummer in the hard rock category by the North-American magazine Drum!. More than that, he was also the first Brazilian drummer to have signature instruments released by manufactures such as Paiste, Pro-Mark and Mapex, besides having built a solid international career accompanying renowned musicians such as Tony MacAlpine and Vinnie Moore and being part of one of the biggest revelations of Brazilian metal in the last ten years, the band Noturnall.
