Concert Band - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1411069 Composed by Keiron Anderson. Classical,Contemporary. 124 pages. Songburd Music #993415. Published by Songburd Music (A0.1411069). Keiron Anderson brings us music for the moment, and perhaps no other moment yet in the 21st Century has revealed the vulnerable nature of humanity, and the interconnectedness of our world more than the COVID-19 pandemic, officially announced on March 11, 2020 by the World Health Organization.  The True Heroes is a piece that tells a part of the dramatic story of the struggles, heartaches and triumphs of the world’s medical professionals, and all who were a part of the health care industry to whom this piece is dedicated.  Using a dissonance in the chords, structured upon two perfect fifths a semi-tone apart, Anderson opens the story with suddenness and a pushed tempo that conveys an urgency and anxiety about the growing pandemic, and depicts how the health care workers are not people with super-powers, but rather individuals who are committed to self-sacrifice in using their skills to save the lives of others. The crisis is not over as we reach the middle of the piece where the tempo slows to a more thoughtful pace, allowing the health care worker (and the listener) a moment to rest, to reflect and to meditate, and to give enough time for the emotions to mend and energy to rebuild while the pandemic rages on around them.  Then the music once again resumes its original pace with growing fanfare for the health care worker and their resilience in the face of a momentous task, leading to a more dramatic and triumphal sound and force to conclude the piece.

David McKeown #4367456. Published by David McKeown (A0.587596). The Prince of Denmark’s March is better known nowadays as the Trumpet Voluntary and is often used in wedding ceremonies.

Euphonium,Tuba - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1266180 Composed by Claude Debussy. Arranged by Shinya Ishida. 20th Century,Classical. 12 pages. BitNotes.jp #857491. Published by BitNotes.jp (A0.1266180). This is an arrangement for euphonium tuba quartet of Golliwogg's Cakewalk from Children's Corner, a piano cycle said to have been composed by Claude Debussy for his beloved daughter, Claude Emma. This extremely rhythmical piece is based on the Cakewalk, a two-beat dance music that is said to be one of the origins of jazz, but Debussy is said to have hated this music. The piece also includes a passage from Wagner's Tristan and Isolde, which he also disliked, and is ironic in its own way. It is best to play it humorously, without the heaviness that comes with playing it in the bass clef.

Kennedy. The Bridal March was written by Richard Wagner in 1850, scored for orchestra and chorus, and opening the third act of his opera, Lohingren.

Piano,Vocal,Voice - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.998830 Composed by Robert A. Howard. 20th Century,Christmas,Classical,Contemporary. Score. 3 pages. Robert A. Howard #6115525. Published by Robert A. Howard (A0.998830). This short song sets an ironic text by Thomas Hardy. The piano part creates an atmosphere of mystery and uncertainty with its increasingly chromatic progressions. The vocal part delivers the text in a detached, declamatory manner. The baritone and piano parts appear quite distinct from each other, though some doubling of certain notes in the vocal line by the piano helps to unify these elements, as well as aiding the singer. The piece is appropriate for more advanced baritone singers and professional pianists.

Full Orchestra - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1217090 Composed by Hector Berlioz. Arranged by Derrick Thom. Lewis. Instructional,Romantic Period. Score and Parts. 22 pages. Derrick Thom. Lewis #813626. Published by Derrick Thom. Lewis (A0.1217090). This is a “toccata� for whom? Answer: the celli, basses, bassoons and tuba, for this is a workout for those often under-challenged members. In addition, this a gem of a piece as regards its wonderfully concise construction and simple, satisfying form. It is historically ironic, given Berlioz' wild public image and antipathy to musical authority, that he could produce such a work as this so effortlessly, a product a pure intellect without seeming passion. This could serve as an effective curtain-raiser or a daily exercise in general rehearsal. As many characteristics of the composer as I could manage are to be found in this arrangement, viz. Tbn. on melody, High viola the same, W/w tremolos, Fl./vl. Unison melody, --thereby (hopefully) evoking the Corsair Overture, Harold in Italy, Sym.Fantastique, Nuits d'Éte.
