Recorder Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1374642 Composed by James Devor. Contemporary,Early Music,Renaissance. Individual part. 10 pages. JDevor Music, LLC #959170. Published by JDevor Music, LLC (A0.1374642). Etude in the Third Octavefor improving solo recorder playing (version for C recorders)The intention of this book is to introduce the third octave of the recorder to intermediate and advanced students no matter their age. The first section introduces each chromatic pitch from Bb6 to G6 (the highest possible pitch on a standard soprano recorder) in a pedagogically appropriate fashion. Each etude should be practiced slowly at first, focusing on correct fingering, phrasing and articulation prior to attaining full tempo. All of these etudes are purposefully composed using a variety of rhythmic and harmonic materials. On some of the fingering charts, ‘bell’ is included underneath the fingering. This indicates that the bell is to be closed either by pushing it up against the leg or the use of a bell key. Throughout the musical examples this is also reminded to the student by the usage of the ‘+’ sign.The second and third sections take students through recommended exercises in octaves, fifths, and major/minor scales. The goal here is to practice clean and swift transitions between notes, especially when in distant registers.The last section comprises two page-long ‘Grand Etudes’, which each reinforce and combine material from earlier in this book. Each one is about a minute long and uses the entire range of the instrument. When practicing these, be sure to attempt to keep the sound of the recorder consistent across both low and high registers.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1076393 Composed by Kevin G. Pace (ASCAP), Mary Ann W. Snowball. Praise & Worship,Sacred,Spiritual. Octavo. 194 pages. Kevin G. Pace #680550. Published by Kevin G. Pace (A0.1076393). Have you ever wondered how to have a really happy life? In Matthew 5-7 in The New Testament and in 3 Nephi 12-14 in The Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ, our Savior teaches us the way to contentment and happy living through The Beatitudes. These gems of Christian living were taught by Jesus as the initial part of the most well-known of his teachings called The Sermon on the Mount. The word “beatitude� comes from the Latin “beatitudo� meaning “blessedness.� Each of the eight beatitudes in this book consists of two phrases: the condition and the result. Together, these illustrate a set of ideals focusing on love and humility, echoing the highest of Jesus’ teachings on spirituality and compassion. Each also promises a future reward, and the themes appear to escalate from beginning to advancing levels of responsibility and spirituality as the Sermon progresses. By the end of the Sermon a recipient would have earned the reward to stand ceremonially in the presence of God, and to ultimately gain the greatest reward of living with Him in heaven. The purpose of this book is to praise our Lord through song and text, rejoicing in the gifts we receive from Him as we do as He suggests. Please enjoy this collection of original solos, SATB choral renditions, and a duet, along with a short text explaining each beatitude in the order our Savior spoke them so many years ago as part of the greatest sermon ever given, our Lord’s Sermon on the Mount! It was a joy to prepare them for you. Happy Living!

Woodwind Ensemble Contrabassoon,English Horn,Oboe - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.844682 Composed by Jeno Hubay. Arranged by Phil Beaman. Romantic Period,Standards. 17 pages. Phil Beaman #5017527. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.844682). Maggiolata is the Italian name of an ancient Spring Festival celebrated on May 1st, hence the subtitle Song of May. Jeno Hubay, Head of the Violin Dept at the Budapest Academy of Music, wrote this piece to be as light and celebratory as a perfect spring day. My arrangement abridges and slightly simplifies this classical standard which was originally written for Viola and Piano. I reduced it from 6 1/2 minutes to 2 1/2 minutes by focusing on the recapitulation of the main theme but also included opening and closing cadenzas. I have scored it for a Double Reed Octet; English Horn solo, accompanied by 2 Oboe parts, 2 English Horn parts, 2 Bassoon parts, and a ContraBassoon part. The Soloist has the melody throughout. The other Oboes, English Horns and Bassoons have occasional countermelody, but mostly pulse ensemble rich chords while the ContraBassoon sits on pedal tones. Overall, it creates a rich, balanced Double Reed ensemble sound which utilizes the full range of the instrument. Fairly easy, but sounds more advanced with its range, full chords and the dramatic interpretation markings I have added.9 page score, 1 page parts; 17 pages total5 minutes with repeat

A gentle, flowing section follows, antiphonally incorporating both tunes over a moving LV bass line, and employing handchimes as an option.  The final section is majestic and fully chordal, and closes with a brief return to the malleted accompaniment used earlier.  This unique arrangement is suitable at most any time during the church year, for concert, or festivals.

Guitar - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1168489 Composed by Stephen Foster. Arranged by Brian Streckfus. Country,Folk,Instructional,Pop,Singer/Songwriter. Chords/Lyrics. 1 pages. Brian Streckfus #768792. Published by Brian Streckfus (A0.1168489). If you are looking for a historically accurate version, I would just get Hal Leonard's publications of it. This version really sprinkles some razzle dazzle on an otherwise straightforward public domain song in G major, though it does not use the exact  original melody.1. The original melody is NOT intact, this is ghostwritten. Notes were flatted to give a bluesier sound.  2. The chords are very modern, despite this song being written in the mid 1850s. 3. Grace notes added 4. Background harmonies now have more thought put into part writing, originality, being idiomatic on guitar, and making the melody the forefront. 5. Left hand fingerings added to aid in sight-reading.6. Letter names added to note heads to aid in sight-reading.7. I like versions like this because it could be used for a guitarist who doesn't sing, a guitarist who does sing, or a guitarist in a band. In otherwords, the more band members, the more you are just focusing on background chords, the more you are a one-person band, the more you have to take everything in. Tips:1. I arranged this so that students could see how blues scales work as I drenched this song in more blues than it originally had (Bb - B...F - F#...E minor blues and G major blues respectively.) You'll notice I don't stay on these dissonant blues notes for very long, that's why there's so many grace notes in this song.2. The D9 in measure 6 was originally a D7. Some extensions like this don't really change the scale in use.3. The Ab7 in measure 7 was originally a D7, making the Ab7 a tritone substitution. If you know the key of G major well, that chord should stick out like a sore thumb. 4. The Bb7 in measure 14 was originally a G7. I call these kind of substituitions mediant substitutions as they are similiar to jazz tritone substitions, but at a 3rd instead of a tritone.5. The Cm(maj7) was originally a C major chord. This is a modal borrowing composition technique of borrowing from the parrallel minor, in this case, G minor.
