Instrumentation:FluteClarinet in BbHorn in FViolinViolaCelloDoiuble bassSeptet, opus 77 … “Variations on a Shaker Tune� was commissioned by Mark Ludwig for his educational series in the Western Berkshires of Massachusetts.  When he approached me about writing a “theme and variations� work for the purpose of illustrating musical form, texture and orchestration to a young audience, I thought what better thing to do than to use as a theme a Shaker hymn from near Hancock Shaker Village.  As it turns out Deborah Leah Rentz, a mezzo-soprano who is Mark’s assistant at the Terezín Music Foundation, has been researching into and transcribing from a Shaker Hymnal, ca. 1850, created and compiled for the Hancock Shaker Village.  (Deborah’s project is sponsored by the Hancock Shaker Village and the Richmond Performing Series.)    So I asked her to put on a DAT tape (those were the days before CDs or digital distribution… ) a number of these hymns for me.  I immediately fell in love with the very first one on the tape, “Grateful Remembrance.�  It had a soulful, melancholic core; an almost “bluesy� feeling to it.  In this performance, Deborah will sing the hymn a cappella at the beginning.    Then, the seven variations will follow.I. Grateful Remembrance … An instrumental version of the hymn.II. Grateful Chanting … Featuring the B-flat clarinet in a pentatonic “chant� setting.III. Grateful Funk … The “bluesiness� of the hymn is transformed into a funk riff.IV. Tango Remembered … A four-note fragment from the hymn is transformed into a sultry tango.V. Sambinha agradecida … The yearning “flat 6th� in the hymn is transformed into a samba Carmen Miranda would’ve have liked.VI. Canonized Remembrance … The hymn is treated to a canonic transfiguration.VII. Grateful Groove … The pentatonic nature of the hymn is spun out in an Afro-cuban dazzle dazzle finale!

Published by Patrick Jillett (A0.1435934). March is a lively piece composed early on, by a contemporary Australian composer, Patrick Jillett. Appropriate for a concert or festival. It is playable by the youngest of bands, and can be used to teach march style. It is in the key of Bb, beginning with a trumpet and snare drum introduction establishing stable march style. The rest of the band then joins for essentially an AABA form. The piece modulates to Eb major for the B section (without changing the key signature), then back to Bb for the finale. March uses basic rhythms and limited range, perfect for a young band to begin learning and mastering “march style.”.

Piano - intermediate to advanced - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q7268 Humorous variations on a theme by Robert Schumann in barious styles from Bach to Liszt. Composed by Peter Wittrich and Robert Schumann. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Schott Music - Digital #Q7268. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q7268). The fun and fascination with disguising oneself to be someone else for a moment has been expressed many times in music through compositions such as Un ballo in maschera, Masquerade or Carnaval. In the humorous variations on a theme of Robert Schumann, Peter Wittrich lets the Fröhliche Landmann [Happy Peasant] slip into different roles and sets out with him on a journey through time from the Baroque to the modern era. In ten variations, Wittrich makes the Landmann familiar with the different styles and famous themes of the music epochs by treating Robert Schumann's popular theme contrapuntally in the sense of Bach, imposing Mozart's sonata form on it or letting the Landmann dance a proud polonaise with Frédéric Chopin. Der fröhliche Landmann also becomes a jazz pianist and improvises with Ella Fitzgerald and Oscar Petersen in a blues sound before he indulges, in a Grand finale, in the brilliant virtuosity of the 19th century together with Tchaikovsky, Liszt and Rachmaninov. Apart from performing the entire work, individual variations can be arranged in small cycles according to preferences in style, e.g. for Jugend musiziert, or counter-posed against the original work. A fresh and entertaining contribution to the Schumann Year 2010.

STUDIO RECORDING NOTES The provided MP3 Audio Clip contains an excerpt of the commercial recording and features: Christopher Burnett – alto saxophone/composition; Roger Wilder – piano; Jeff Harshbarger – bass; Clarence Smith – drums; with Terri Anderson Burnett and Freda Proctor – flutes. The final mastering and mix by Craig Rettmer at C.R. Sound in Kansas City is truly amazing. ABOUT THE COMPOSER How are jazz careers made? Many have remarked on the big historical shift: musicians used to apprentice on the road with masters and learn the language firsthand, but those cultural conditions are fading, and the bandstand has been replaced by the graduate degree. There’s truth in that narrative, and yet it fails to account for the full variety of paths that players are taking as they strive to find their voice in this music.For alto saxophonist Christopher Burnett, the journey involved spending 22 years as a musician in the U.S. Army. He left the service in 1996 - I’ve been out nearly as long as I was in, he says - and resettled in 2001 in his native Kansas City metropolitan area. Two years earlier, in 1999, he had released his debut recording, Time Flies, and in 2008 he followed up with Theme Music, both on the Artists Recording Collective (ARC) label that he cofounded with saxophonist Erica Lindsay and pianist Sumi Tonooka. Now at age 58, Burnett reaches another level of achievement with Firebird, showcasing a fine working quartet and a set of compositions rich in beauty, subtlety and sophistication. There’s a remarkable lyrical ease and harmonic savvy in the compositions that make up Firebird, not least of all on the title track with its layered flutes and Latin-tinged rhythmic feel. Burnett’s legato eloquence and depth of expression on the slow 4/4 Ballad for An Optimist is another highlight. His choice of the inspired, metrically shifting A Risk I Take, by French horn virtuoso and colleague Mark Taylor, tells us much about his refined taste and interpretive abilities.

Jeff Tincher #6247409. Published by Jeff Tincher (A0.585362). This is Part 1 from the Starship Trooper trilogy. In the original key from The Yes Album, this song was the finale of the prog rock group Yes concerts for a long time. This part is a perfect example of how to make a song with a lot of odd time signatures sound like a standard rock song. Starship Trooper is one of my favorite early Yes hits. This song is classified as Intermediate due to all the time signature changes. Duration = 3:27.

They consist of four to six movements (or contredanses, courtly versions of English country dances that had been taken up at the court of Louis XIV and spread across Europe.) and became a craze during the 19th century.Though hundreds of quadrille sets were composed in the 19th , the names of the five parts (or figures) remained the same, as did the steps and the figures themselves:Le Pantalon , L’été , La Poule , (Trénis ), La Pastourelle , Finale This collection includes:·        The Rats·        Learning to Dance·        Wide Awake·        Melbourne·        Polly·        Osborne·        Lancers’ Quadrille·        Chevalresque·        Fireman·        Les Girards·        Palermo·        Caledonian

LCH Music #1075419. Published by LCH Music (A0.1499365). The Renaissance period of music was filled with stunning pieces that are rarely heard today.

Next is “Ríu Ríu Chíu,” a contrapuntal Spanish carol that gained popularity when the Monkees performed it on their 1967 Christmas episode. The piece concludes with the energetic and syncopated Spanish carol “E la don, don,” providing a rousing finale.“Three Renaissance Carols” is a unique and engaging arrangement that will captivate audiences with appealing and extraordinary melodies. It is perfect for holiday concerts, church services, caroling parties, and recitals.
