Choral Choir (SAB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.915682 Composed by Richard Joseph Barber. 20th Century,Christian,Christmas,Classical,Romantic Period. Octavo. 5 pages. Barber Music Company #3691481. Published by Barber Music Company (A0.915682).      On the Night that Christ Was Born, words and music by Richard Joseph Barber, is a three-part (SAB) composition for Advent.      The soprano range is from middle c to the second d above middle c . The alto sings from the first a below middle c to the second d above middle c. The bass runs from the first c below middle c to the the first e above middle c.       The piece lasts about one minute and 15 seconds if you perform it at the tempo marked.       It is not a difficult piece for the singers or for the accompanist; neither is it boring. There is enough repetition of musical ideas to make the piece attainable to most choirs, but also enough variety to make it interesting for more advanced choirs as well as audiences.      The mood is joyful, happy, and fun without being irreverent.     I hope you will get some copies and try it with you choir. Please let me know how you and your choir and your audience(s) liked it. And if you have questions or comments about the piece, please do not hesitate contact me.                                                                                                Sincerely,                                                                                                Dick Barber, aspiringtunerrjb@sbcglobal.net  .

Small Ensemble Harp,Voice - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.799604 Composed by Nicole Elyse DiPaolo. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 4 pages. Nicole Elyse DiPaolo #3417119. Published by Nicole Elyse DiPaolo (A0.799604). This short song was composed in 2012 during my doctoral coursework at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music. It was written for tenor, but given its accessible range (Db4 to G5 in the original key), it would work well for lighter voices in many fachs, including light lyric sopranos, baritones, and mezzos. The text, translated from a poem by Takuboku Ishikawa (1886-1912), is gender-neutral. This would be a great introduction to new music for an undergraduate singer with strong aural skills and a still-light voice (since young dramatics might overpower the harp).If you'd like to talk about commissioning a transposed score, please get in touch! Transposition options will be a bit more limited with the harp than with the piano, but I'm sure we could make something work.Poem text (in English translation, as it appears in the score)Setting sun, Drifting clouds, New moon, Evening twilight, What do they matter to me?Composer biography:Nicole Elyse DiPaolo is a versatile composer, teacher, collaborative pianist, and music theorist currently based in Bloomington, Indiana. Currently a PhD candidate in music theory at Indiana University, she recently completed a doctoral minor in composition, having studied with Claude Baker, Don Freund, P. Q. Phan, and David Schneider. She also holds a B.Mus. from the University of Michigan, where she studied composition with Bright Sheng and piano with Louis Nagel. Nicole's music has been heard across the world: along with numerous performances in the Midwest, her commissioned song settings of Muscogee poet laureate Alexander Posey's texts have been performed at Shorter College (GA) and Lincoln University (PA), and the Smithsonian Institution procured copies of two of these (Nature's Blessings and A Vision) to archive at the National Museum of the American Indian. Additionally, Nicole's viola duo Three Episodes was featured at Ball State University's 40th Annual New Music Festival in February 2010. Her early compositions have been garnering interest as well: music students in Kenya performed several of Nicole's such pieces in May 2013 through a pedagogical project spearheaded by IU faculty member Kimberly Carballo. Nicole's music also received its Mexican premiere in October 2013 with a performance of her Divertimento, written for the International String Quartet of Yucatán. In 2014, Nicole published a set of twenty short pedagogical pieces in uncommon keys, entitled Venturing Beyond, available on SheetMusicPlus. Also a sought-after teacher and adjudicator, Nicole frequently judges regional and divisional MTNA composition competitions at all levels, ranging from elementary to college-level Young Artists, and she also served as the composition department chair at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in 2014.

Bass Clarinet Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1294033 Composed by Janna Willard. 20th Century. Individual part. 8 pages. Janna Hoskin #884515. Published by Janna Hoskin (A0.1294033). “Theme & Variations for Bass Clarinet� is an experiment in using a matrix to create the inversions, retrogrades, and retrograde inversions used for each statement within the theme. I also used a separate matrix for note values and yet another for dynamics.Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find the musical (and perhaps the emotional) centre of the piece, and then convey it to your audience. To this end, please consider the stated tempo as a suggestion and not a hard and fast rule to follow. If a particular section feels like it should be slower, make that adjustment; if another feels like it should be faster, make that adjustment also.Please let me know if you perform this piece. I am interested in learning how different performers interpret the music on the page!

Drum Set,Electric Bass Guitar,Electric Guitar,Piano Accompaniment,Synthesizer - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1105120 By David Kai. By David Kai. Arranged by David Kai. Christian,Contemporary,Folk,Rock. Full Performance. Duration 215. David Kai #708367. Published by David Kai (A0.1105120). This fun song was written when heart transplants were fairly new and still in the news. The song depicts the healing ministry of Jesus brought into modern times. Since people like to put music into categories, the style could be roughly described as being country/bluegrass/synth-driven/gospel pop, which might make it pretty unique! The song was first recorded by the Christian rock group, Whitestone. The Great Healer words and music by David Kai ©1980 I’ve had a heart transplant with a bit of a difference, it may seem rather odd No scalpel, no surgeon, no anesthetic, just between me and God And now a new life beats inside of me, it’s more than mere words can describe My heart keeps time to the rhythm of the Spirit inside Well I went fishing for the truth to life, but I opened up a can of worms False religions and philosophies, misleading me at every turn Well I soon realized that knowledge is fine, but it’s really just a place to start ‘Cause you can change your mind but it’s God that has to change your heart Chorus: Yes, he’s the great healer, in a world of pain and strife He’s the great healer, and he can mend a broken life And though your hurts be too much to bear He can heal your wounds with his loving care And give you a new life that will never die So if you feel that you’ve lost all your reason to live Good and bad look the same And you’re walking around more dead than alive Life clotting up in your veins Just end your confusion, accept a transfusion of love from the heavenly Lord And to your surprise you’ll find that you have been restored Chorus:.

Des Press #6438143. Published by Des Press (A0.977352). Part of the series A Pulchritudinous Posy of Pleasing Party-PiecesA few fancies for five-part natural trumpet ensemble* with optional timpani. At last: Some new repertoire for the historical natural trumpet! This one-handed instrument was familiar to composers such as JS Bach, Handel, Telemann, Purcell, Vivaldi etc., but was largely neglected after the invention of valves in the early 19th century - and the subsequent invention of the nodal vent-hole systems in the late 20th-century - until recently, when the elusive lost art of clarino playing (in the fourth octave and above) was cracked by dedicated optimists such as Don L Smithers and JF Madeuf. These arrangements are a stylistic departure from the trumpet's golden age of Baroque repertoire, featuring works well known in the 20th century, and provide excellent training for rhythmic precision, style, pitching and team playing. They're also fun, if you like that sort of thing. Advice on tuning up the differently-pitched instruments and a technical tip are included. The current regulations on SMP mean us little guys can only publish in-copyright works one at a time. So, you can collect them all and make yourself a tome!  These arrangements were originally written for Lunchtime Tower Music (weather permitting), at the Dartington International Summer School between roughly 2000 and 2010, for courses led by Michael Laird and David Staff. Such performances from the mediæval clock tower involved the various brass and other wind classes playing seriously with an informal atmosphere. Logistical issues, a narrow staircase and the ubiquitous Health-and-Safety regulations prevented the use of timpani on the tower but sometimes larger groups, and those involving vertigo sufferers, played in the courtyard instead. These pieces are the opposite of playing Baroque music on modern, or postmodern instruments. Get them all now and enjoy a refreshing change! Enjoy! DM

Woodwind Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.973274 Composed by David Leech. Arranged by David Leech. Jazz. 24 pages. David Leech #4782841. Published by David Leech (A0.973274). A Decade of Nigel consists of ten saxophone duets composed over a period of ten years as birthday presents for my grandson, Nigel Cooper. They can be played by any two similar pitched saxophones (e.g., two altos, two tenors). It is also possible to play them with any two treble clef instruments that have a similar written range (trumpet, flute, clarinet, etc.) although in some cases octave adjustments in range will be necessary.The duets are all written in a jazz style and, with the exception of number 8, should be played with a swing feeling to the eighth notes. Some of the pieces feature unusual time signatures.Although it was not my intention to make them progressively difficult, to some extent it worked out that way. This collection will be an excellent resource for saxophone teachers.I hope you will find these duets to be interesting and challenging, as well as fun to play.Note regarding printing: If you are printing the entire book yourself, print double-sided. The PDF file is laid out so that the duets (most are two pages) will be on facing pages, thus eliminating page turns.

2 melody instruments (flute, violin, viola, oboe, clarinet in Bb, cor anglais) and guitar - intermediate to advanced - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q18649 Opera Miniature. Composed by Georges Bizet. Arranged by Siegfried Schwab. This edition: score and parts. Downloadable, Score and parts. Duration 12' 50. Schott Music - Digital #Q18649. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q18649). Is it possible to reduce large opera scores to scores for a small ensemble which even includes a guitar? If you let yourself in for it, you will be amply rewarded: beautiful melodies, magnificent interaction of harmonic and musico-dramatic elements of surprise, and a recognition value among the audience who loves to discover great known melodies like 'Carmen' by Georges Bizet in an entirely new musical environment. Thus, with the guitar in the role of the foundation which is given interesting, previously unknown tasks, this piece is a most welcome addition to the existing chamber music repertoire.
