Chamber Orchestra - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.753642 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by John Hoesly. Country,Film/TV,Folk. 36 pages. PRS&B #5218755. Published by PRS&B (A0.753642). Wayfaring Stranger- for small orchestra. Traditional American Folk Song arranged by John Hoesly. Also known as Poor Wayfaring Stranger and I Am A Poor Wayfaring Stranger, this song probably originated in the early 19th century.  It has been recorded numerous times, but most significantly appears in the 2019 film 1917 where a soldier sings this plaintive melody to his fellow comrades just before going into battle. This arrangement is divided into two sections.  Section one is a very haunting scenario, very plain with insistent harmonic devices. The second section is a more elaborate version with more harmonic movement and tempo extensions to create more drama.  It ends as plaintively as it begins.

SATB, a cappellaWritten for the Early Light Academy Spotlight Singers (South Jordan, UT) and taken from actual responses from the students they were asked, when people look at you, what do you want them to see? This song is intended to be a very personal expression for the singers as well as for the audience.Text:I see: eyes and a face, hands and feetYou see: the sameI see: tears and a smile, working, movingYou see: the sameI see: pain, joy, strength, enduranceYou see, you think you see-but you can’t name it.I see you, please see me.When you look at me, see a person who isn’t afraid to be-- just be.I am tall or I am small, but I am happy to be me.I may be confident or meek, I may be really strong or weak,And if it changes week to week, it doesn’t matter.What matters is that you see me.When you listen, notice that my voice may sometimes raise the roofAnd other times it may seem aloof when I cannot find the proofOf what is truth and what is fair, but listen ‘til you hear me shareAnd know deep down I really care, because it matters.It matters that you see me.I see: someone who is strong and kind, someone who knows their mind, Someone who struggles just like me, but keeps fighting endlesslyI see you, please see me.I see: a soul who fin’ly knows I’m hereAnd doesn’t judge if I bow down to smallish fearsYou see me, and I see you, there’s nothing greater we can doThan to acknowledge we’re all trav’ling down this road,But not alone.It matters-That I see you-and you see me.

The sound sample is a live vocal performance against electronic versions of the instruments The pdf file contains score and parts. The song can also be performed without the flute and cello.  You have your own dreaming,  I cannot follow where another mind sums up the quiet arithmetic of the day.  Growing there, where none can reach you, making of the going days the stuff of yourself.  I can only watch, remembering in you the art of empty tomorrows, written all over with impulse.  Nor can I tell how many times you will fall;  only be there to help you survive your desires.  Oh I will spend with you ev'ry wish as you go the long way through sorrow  for you can only find for yourself how the magic arithmetic suddenly adds up.  Now time will come for you soon enough ; the day wake in your eyes.  So sleep as long as you can,  gathering there the necessary and private ways of enduring. .

Woodwind Ensemble Clarinet - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1377700 Composed by John Wilbye. Arranged by Alan Edgar. Renaissance. 35 pages. Alan Edgar Ted Moon #962294. Published by Alan Edgar Ted Moon (A0.1377700). Instrumentation: Eb Clarinet, four Bb Clarinets, Alto, Bass, Contra-alto and Contrabass Clarinets. The son of a tanner, John Wilbye was born at Brome, Suffolk. Wilbye is probably the most famous of all the English madrigalists; his pieces have long been favourites and are often included in modern collections. His madrigals include Weep, weep mine eyes, Weep, O mine eyes and Draw on, sweet night. He also wrote the poem, Love not me for comely grace. His style is characterized by delicate writing for the voice, acute sensitivity to the text and the use of “false relations between the major and minor modes.The text for this one goes:Ah! cannot sighs not tears, nor aught else move thee To pity me, who more than life do love thee?O cruel fates! see, now away she’s flying,And fly, alas! alas! and leave me dying.Farewell, most fair, farewell, yet more disdainful: Was never grief like mine, nor death more painful.No 30 from the Second Set of Madrigals, 1598. originally for SSATTB a capella. As Wilbye labelled this Apt for Viols or Voices, I felt justified in making this arrangement.

By African-American Spiritual and Traditional Spiritual. Arranged by Sharon Wilson. Children,Folk,Instructional,Sacred,Spiritual. 9 pages. Sharon Wilson #3497139. Published by Sharon Wilson (A0.565148). This sheet music is notated for handbells on one staff and Boomwhackers® on a second staff creating an instrumental ensemble (requires one set of each instrument). Handbells play the melody while the Boomwhackers® keep a steady beat with three-note chords. Included in this set of scores is a combined score with both instrument parts on a grand staff plus a separate 1-staff score for each instrument. This set of scores uses black and white noteheads. This same set of scores is available (sold separately) with color coded noteheads which may make it easier for beginning players if you have access to a color printer.Notes used for each instrument are as follows: Bells ~ D E G A B C* where C* is high C, one octave above middle C  Boomwhackers® ~ C D E G A B C*Though this sheet music is notated for Handbells and Boomwhackers®, this arrangement is playable by any 8-note, C major diatonic scale (one octave) instrument such as a xylophone or glockenspiel.Only filled noteheads (quarter and eighth notes) are used so the notes are easier to see (this does not indicate the bells need to be silenced immediately before the next beat). Also, only quarter and eighth rests are used to help visualize the number of beats per measure. Lyrics and chord names are provided as well to aid in the learning and teaching of this song. The staves are shown without sharps or flats for simplicity since even though this song is actually written in the key of G major, no sharps or flats are used.The number of ringers and whackers needed will vary depending on the skill level of the participants.

Piano,Vocal,Voice - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1513002 By African-American Spiritual. By Traditional, first cited in Old Plantation Hymns by William Barton (1861-1930). Arranged by Teresa Young. 19th Century,Blues,Early Music,Folk,Traditional. Score. 2 pages. Teresa Young #1087887. Published by Teresa Young (A0.1513002). Teresa Young's arrangement of the hauntingly beautiful African-American hymn (Sometimes I Feel Like a) Motherless Child for piano and voice is spare but powerful. Set in G minor, the piano accompaniment sets the mood and complements the sung melody rather than doubling it. The left-hand part uses the lowest register of the piano, helping to convey the heavy weight of this lament first sung unaccompanied by enslaved workers in the American South. Teresa's version in A minor is available here too. Just search Motherless Child Teresa Young to see both.

String Ensemble Cello,Double Bass,Viola,Violin - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.813447 Composed by Johann Pachelbel. Arranged by Regis Bookshar. Baroque,Multicultural,Standards,Wedding,World. Score and parts. 35 pages. Regis Bookshar #6260495. Published by Regis Bookshar (A0.813447). Canon (Pachelbel) (Bb) (String Octet - 3 Violin, 2 Viola, 2 Cello, 1 Bass) - Advanced/Intermediate - Digital Download. This selection, Johann Pachelbel's celebrated Canon, is perhaps the most famous canon ever written and has been one of my favorite compositions to arrange. A canon is a polyphonic device in which several voices play the same music, entering in sequence. Pachelbel's Canon, was originally written in the key of D Major and was scored for three violins arranged in canon, accompanied by a basso continuo which repeats the same harmonic progression throughout the entire piece. The common musical term for this is ostinato or ground bass. Regis Bookshar has now arranged this music for a String Octet consisting of 3 Violins, 2 Violas, 2 Violoncellos and 1 Double Bass. The three Violins play the melody in canon while the ostinato accompaniment is played by the other five instruments. This arrangement is suitable for high school and college students but could also be performed by professional performers. It is perfect for concerts and church services, especially for Weddings, but could be performed for any occasion. Included are a score and a complete set of parts (35 pages). This version is written in the key of Bb Major, but, if you prefer, another version, written in the key of D Major, is also available. Other versions of Pachelbel's Canon have also been arranged by Regis Bookshar and are available for a wide variety of instrumental Quintets and Octets, in both the keys of D Major and Bb Major. I think that String players would probably prefer to play the versions in the key of D Major while the Brass and Woodwind musicians might prefer to play the Bb Major versions. I hope you take the time to compare the different versions to find the right version for you. To help you decide which version, or versions, you may want to choose, I have included several musical samples for you to listen to and to hear what these arrangements may sound like and so that you may compare the various arrangements. Also, just to let you know, the Octets written in the key of Bb Major have full-length recordings while the Octets in D Major and all Quintets have only the first 25 measures, or so, available to hear. Please feel free to search for other arrangements by Regis Bookshar which are also available. There are quite a few other arrangements in a variety of styles and I'm certain you will find something else which might interest you as well. Please keep checking because I plan to continue to add new arrangements as often as I can. I'm certain that this exciting arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon will be a challenge to some performers but will continue to entertain both performers and audiences alike for years to come.
