Christmas,Contemporary,Praise & Worship,Religious. Score. 5 pages. Whitney Hawker #745103. Published by Whitney Hawker (A0.1144781). The Christmas season is my favorite time of the year – especially the music! Every time I listen to a song, a new idea for an arrangement pops into my head and I just have to get it written down to share. This version of “Hark the Herald Angels Sing� has a mix in of “Joy to the World� at the end because I can only imagine what songs of joy the angels sang that quiet night. The constant 8th note beats use plenty of octaves and the ending has running octaves to watch out for as well. Set in the key of C Major and then moving to the key of D Major to finish off. Perfect for an early advanced level pianist to enjoy and perform at any Christmas recital or church event!

Zack Richards #5207333. Published by Zack Richards (A0.894391). This piece was written for a musical service focused on light. The melody flew out of my head almost instantly.  It has a bright and positive vibe and sparkles in both the lower and upper register of the Trumpet.  The piece is perfect for any part of a service and will leave the listener in a better mood.  I later wrote the companion piece to this, Out of the Darkness, which is also available on my website.  Trumpet Solo and OrganIntermediateApprox. 2:15Visit zackrichards.com for more from this composer!

By Graham Hamilton. Classical,Contemporary,Contest,Festival,Historic,Medieval. Brass Band. 83 pages. Hambone Music #1018484. Published by Hambone Music (A0.1438467). A beautiful slow melody in 4/4 followed by a rousing 6/4 trek with fanfares then returning to the slow melody in 4/4. Not overly difficult but players should be around Grade 5 (ABRSM) and bands of around 2nd to 3rd section, although still possible with 4th section bands. Inspired by an old ruined church in my town called the 'Cross Kirk' during the times of the Cromwellian invasion of Scotland.Part 1 It is around the year 1650. A novice monk awakes from his slumber to the echoes of prayers and holy chanting coming through the cloisters. After he rises, he readies the oxen for a trek down the St. Andrews Road to the nearby satellite site of the priory - the site of the modern day St Andrew's cemetery. Part 2  It is an arduous trek over a muddy, rocky, unprepared track with heavy carts, with oxen straining to pull the load. They stop for a breather (3:09) and the impressive vistas are observed and the flag at 'Auld Neidpath' is just visible, reflected in the noble theme between the arduous oxen trekking theme. Part 3 The caravan starts to speed up; the oxen being startled by the sounds of fanfare trumpets coming from behind - a brave group of knights have broken through English lines and speed towards Neidpath to reinforce the besieged occupants. As they pass the wagon train, the fanfares get louder until the party reach the head of the train where the lead Knight halts to show piety to the Hieromonk who blesses him and his knights. The novice looks on awe-inspired at the brave knights, with noble faces, resplendent in shining armour, with banners flapping in the wind.  No time to stop! The knights remount and continue on, the fanfares trailing off into the distance. The wagon train slows down having reached its destination. Part 4  The novice is back at the priory, reflecting on seeing knights for the first time (receiving their blessing); their nobility and bravery impressed upon him and retires to his cell for the evening, the evening prayers and chants again echoing through the cloisters . As he closes his eyes, his mind returns to the knights and a smile crosses his face as he gently drifts off to sleep, as the final bell of the day tolls.

Choral Choir (2-Part) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.953846 Composed by Francis Osentowski. Christmas,Contemporary,Sacred. Octavo. 4 pages. Francis Osentowski #5969. Published by Francis Osentowski (A0.953846). Cradle Song (Two-Part Choir) is a brand new composition that’s perfect for the Christmas season. It was inspired by a text from the great 18th century English hymn writer Isaac Watts. In addition to 700 hymns, Watts wrote Joy to the World and is considered the father of the English hymn. In my piece I used a few of Watts' most attractive lines including, Heavenly blessings without number, gently falling on thy head, and omitted those referring to Horned oxen, cursed sinners and burning flames. Cradle Song incorporates lush modern keyboard harmonies in attractive piano interludes. Pianists may recognize subtle references to Chopin’s famous Prelude in D-flat, the Raindrop Prelude. To me, raindrops falling helped paint an emotional picture of heavenly blessings gently falling on the Christ child. Comfortable vocal ranges and many unison lines make the two-part treble version sing-able by young choirs and even two soloists. Cradle Song is available in multiple formats including SATB, SAB, in addition to this Two-Part Treble for small choirs.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.767085 Composed by Mike Lyons & Rachel Johnson. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score. 6 pages. Lyons Music Services #1747523. Published by Lyons Music Services (A0.767085). One of the trials and tribulations of being a music teacher in the UK is the amount of time wasted in meetings that should really be held in the Maths department. On one such occasion, my Head of Department were so utterly bored and disinterested in useless information being imparted to us that we began a kind of musical chess game. Each of us in turn chose a length and a pitch and added wrote them down on a scrap of MSS paper that I found in a pocket. We had to make the motifs as musical as possible, while making it increasingly difficult for the other to finish off the current phrase. By the end of the meeting, we had completed the first phrase up to about measure 16. I took the scrap of paper home and developed it into this piece, which is actually rather good. The title is just We're Bored backwards! Enjoy!
