Recorder Solo,Soprano Recorder - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1311260 Composed by G F Handel. Arranged by Colin Kirkpatrick. Baroque,Historic,Instructional,Opera. Individual part. 6 pages. Colin Kirkpatrick Publications #900258. Published by Colin Kirkpatrick Publications (A0.1311260). This piece is probably Handel’s best-known melody, although it began life as an operatic aria. The opera was called Xerxes, sometimes written Serses and pronounced something like “ZERT-sees�. It was commissioned by The King’s Theatre in London and composed by Handel (who had become naturalized British and lived in London at the time) around 1737 and 1738. The opera is loosely based on the real historical figure King Xerxes, who ruled from around 522-486 BC and was the fourth king of the Achaemenid Empire, a vast region that covered most of the present-day Middle East including modern Turkey.  The melody is often known simply as Handel’s Largo (despite being marked “Larghetto� in the musical score) and is the opening aria in the opera. Known by its opening line Ombra mai fu the aria is sung by Xerxes to a plane tree: “Tender and beautiful fronds of my beloved plane tree, let fate smile upon you...�Although the melody has survived over the years, the opera itself was a complete failure when it was first performed at the King’s Theatre in London’s Haymarket in 1738. The style of the opera was not appreciated by London opera-goers and it generally received poor reviews. The audience may have been confused by the innovative nature of the work because Handel introduced unexpected comic elements into the plot.This arrangement for soprano (descant) recorder(s) and piano is in G major and uses the lower and middle register of the instrument.  It could be used with any number of descant recorders. The lowest note is the D just below the treble staff and the highest note is the G just above the top line. The piano part has been kept as simple as possible.  

String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1182275 Composed by Jean-Phillipe Rameau. Arranged by James Smith. Classical,Early Music. 8 pages. James Smith #782020. Published by James Smith (A0.1182275). The Arts and the Hours is an interlude from Rameau's last opera, Les Boréades.  The libretto, attributed to Louis de Cahusac (1706–1759), is loosely based on the Greek legend of Abaris the Hyperborean. This particular work has recently gained traction after being recorded by Vikingur Ólafsson on piano, reviving one of Rameau's most beautiful works. This arrangement works perfectly as a slow, lyrical addition to any concert.A woodwind quartet version of this arrangement can be found here.View other selections in my catalog at linktr.ee/jamessmithmusic.

Small Ensemble Alto Saxophone,Baritone Saxophone,Soprano Saxophone - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1021989 Composed by Michael J. Burns. Contemporary. Score and parts. 43 pages. Effiny Music #6273591. Published by Effiny Music (A0.1021989). The original version of E Toro nga Hau: The Three Winds was written for oboe, clarinet and bassoon in 2001 and premiered by the Eastwind Trio d’Anches (the faculty reed trio from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with the composer on bassoon) during a tour in New Zealand and Australia in May 2001. The premiere of the version for saxophone trio was performed by members of the Red Clay Saxophone Quartet on February 5, 2008.E Toro nga Hau: The Three Winds was inspired by the Australasian tour and my return home to New Zealand as a performer. Another inspiration was that my dear Grandmother passed away at the age of 94 in February 2001. Due to this there are elements of sadness and happiness throughout the piece. The bittersweet first movement begins melancholy, with a melody that freely switches between minor and major modes, but ends up with a lively dancing section focusing on happy memories, where the chickens from my grandmother’s farm may even be heard. The second movement is lively throughout with extensive use of mixed meter and includes a jazz rock interlude.While the work does not contain any actual New Zealand elements in the music, it was evocative of my time spent there growing up.  It is in a style typical of my writing, containing jazzy influences combined with the more traditional. The title is given in Maori (the language of the native Polynesian race in New Zealand) and English and merely relates to the fact that it is written for three woodwind instruments. This work has been performed throughout North America and the South Pacific.This work also exists in two double reed versions: one for oboe, English horn, and bassoon, and another for oboe and two bassoons.

Arranged by Kovats Istvan. 21st Century,Contemporary,Film/TV,Pop,Wedding. 8 pages. Kovats Istvan #1081603. Published by Kovats Istvan (A0.1506249). The original Taylor Swift song, known also from the Netflix series „Bridgerton”, arranged for String QuartetIn my (and my string quartet collegues) opinion it sounds better than the Bridgerton versionI recommend it for at least intermediate/advanced musicians.Duration: around 3:00 min.TIPS Cello beats: I’m usually beating the upper half of the cello’s body, with two hands (bow down). Low beats with my right hand halfway between the side of the body and the strings, high beats with my left near the side of the body. Feel free to discover other places on the body (the cello’s body ;) :D ) Cello solo – letter ”J”: I think it sounds better on the A string, but if You have a bright D string, You can try there (the 1st violin helps a bit with pizzicato) Violins 1-2, bar 89: The first beat of the 1st violin should be very present, very active, then the 2nd violin should imitate it on the 2nd beat, like a fight. Viola – bars 91-92: You are leading! (Yeah! :D ) In general it’s better to listen to the original song before You start rehearsing. It helps a lot, nobody can write everything in the score, get inspiration from the original version!Stop The Waste! Let’s save some trees! I’m optimizing all of my arrangements to use less paper.This arrangement saved 4 sheets of paper per set.For more info, contact, etc. visit my Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/kovatsmusicGive it a thumbs up, thanks :).
