Composed by Ed Sharpe. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 35 pages. Ed Sharpe #3558305. Published by Ed Sharpe (A0.1028516).

This is a short five movement piece for string quartet. Each movement is only about one minute each. And each movement is one line of a tanka that I wrote about Snow (Yuki). I wrote the second movement first and all of the material in the other four movements appears in or is derived from the second movement. Given this, one can think of the first movement as a prelude with the second movement being the main movement. The fifth movement re-states the main motifs of the first four movements, combining them into one large polyphonic mass.

Unable to sleep I listen throughout the night to the silent song of falling snow in my yard. With the soft dawn, satori.

• The first movement is built around the pentatonic scale F# G B C# D. (The Japanese Hirajoshi Scale; 平調�� )
• The second movement is built around the pentatonic scale C# D F# G# A.
• The third movement is built around the pentatonic scale D Eb G A Bb.
• The fourth movement is built around the pentatonic scale C Dd F G Ab, but does not strictly adhere to the scale in places.
• The fifth movement is built around the pentatonic scale C# D F# G# A, but does not strictly adhere to the scale in places

The 21st Century Clarinet Symphony is comprised of a clarinet octet made up of Bb soprano, Alto, and Bass clarinets. The work contains four movements which each have their own unique charm and quirks. The first movement is based on the sonata-allegro form and features two distinct melodies. The second movement is chorale-like in nature and makes use of the full choir's sound. This movement also places parts into pairs that shift every eight bars. The third movement is a minuet and trio. This movement features the upper four parts playing melodic content while the lower four parts provide the foundation and motor functions the drive the movement forward. The fourth movement is a rondo which features three distinct sections. The A section opens the piece and is heard four times total. The B section is heard twice and features high rhythmic contrast to the A section as well as featuring different lines playing the melody.  The C section of this movement provides a radical change from both the A and B sections of the piece as it features both bass clarinets in a duo setting with minimal accompaniment from other voices.

Instrumentation: 5 Bb Clarinets, Alto Clarinet, 2 Bass Clarinets

Movements:
-Allegro
-Chorale
-Minuet and Trio
-Rondo

Duration: approx. 10 minuets.

My Prelude on the hymn tune Revive Us Again (We Praise Thee O God) was conceived for a three-manual organ and has a somewhat challenging pedal part.  The harmonic idiom reflects the influence of certain 20th century techniques (such as building chords by fourths), which create a sound world that, while still tonal, embraces somewhat greater dissonance than traditional practice allowed.  Modern ears though are accustomed to, and even enjoy, such sounds.  The introduction and interludes are based upon a rhythmic motive taken from the hymn tune, which itself is treated canonically at one point.  In another instance, even two different phrases are vertically combined.  I have provided a full-length recording to aid the prospective buyer in the decision-making process.  I encourage you to search the Sheet Music Plus or the Sheet Music Direct website for other hymn arrangements of mine, some for organ and others for piano.

String quartet in Octatonic mode (except movement 3 in which the viola switches to Dorian while the rest stay in octatonic, creating a fascinating polymodal effect). There are also a few cheeky quotes from the more classical modes, including a Cockney Have a banana phrase in the viola part in various places and the fourth (last) movement quoting a version of Rock a bye baby This has been performed on a few occasions to great effect (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNctKjXYZ8k for the first performance in 1997) The sound sample is an extract from that performance. The pdf file contains the scores and parts of all four movements.

By Henrietta Atkin. By French carol. Arranged by Henrietta Atkin. Christian,Easter,Religious,Sacred. Score. 5 pages. Henrietta Atkin #971559. Published by Henrietta Atkin (A0.1387702).

This joyous Easter hymn has been arranged as a four-part suite for piano. Playful, spritely, and brimming with the joy of the resurrection, this piece will fit anywhere in your Easter Sunday service or other sundays during the fifty days.

The first part of the arrangement is a capriccio-style rendering of the original French melody. The second movement places the melody in the bass. The third movement in the suite is a graceful medieval dance. The fourth movement features a beautiful obbligato in the soprano.
