Brass Ensemble - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.791040 Composed by Irving Berlin. Arranged by Kevin P Holdgate. Contemporary. Score and parts. 21 pages. Kevin P Holdgate #4966967. Published by Kevin P Holdgate (A0.791040). There's No Business Like Show Business is an Irving Berlin song, written for the 1946 musical Annie Get Your Gun and orchestrated by Ted Royal. The song, a slightly tongue-in-cheek salute to the glamour and excitement of a life in show business, is sung in the musical by members of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in an attempt to persuade Annie Oakley to join the production. It is reprised three times in the musical but for the purposes of the show that I made this arrangement for only 2 verses were required... a third verse could easily be added of course with appropriate lyrics.The song is also featured in the 1954 movie of the same name, where it is notably sung by Ethel Merman as the main musical number. The movie, directed by Walter Lang, is essentially a catalog of various Berlin's pieces, in the same way that Singin' in the Rain-which starred Donald O'Connor as well-was a collection of Arthur Freed songs. There was also a disco version of the song made during the 1970s, with Merman reprising her singing role in The Ethel Merman Disco Album. The song became one of Ethel Merman's standards and was often performed by her at concerts and on television.This is a simple arrangement of the song playable by all levels of ensemble

Saxophone Ensemble,Woodwind Ensemble Bass Saxophone,Soprano Saxophone - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1284437 By Bing Crosby. By Irving Berlin. Arranged by John Ivor Holland. 20th Century,Christmas,Film/TV,Holiday,Jazz. 18 pages. John Ivor Holland #875608. Published by John Ivor Holland (A0.1284437). The song that would become White Christmas was conceived by Irving Berlin on the set of the film 'Top Hat' in 1935. He hummed the melody to Fred Astaire and the film's director Mark Sandrich as a song possibility for a future Astaire-Ginger Rogers vehicle. Astaire loved the tune, but Sandrich passed on it. Although White Christmas has become iconic, this was not the original intention. The song Be Careful, It's My Heart, played during the Valentine's Day section of the film 'Holiday Inn', was originally intended to be a bigger hit when production commenced. The success of the song eventually led to another film based on it, 'White Christmas' (1954), which starred Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, and Vera-Ellen. It was an extremely loose remake of 'Holiday Inn', with a similar plot. This arrangement for saxophone choir features all the warm melody and rich harmonies of the original, with nods to another carol along the way.

String Ensemble - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1335183 By Bing Crosby. By Irving Berlin. Arranged by Des McNutty. Baroque,Broadway,Christmas,Classical,Early Music,Musical/Show. 13 pages. Des Press #921029. Published by Des Press (A0.1335183). White Christmas was written by Irving Berlin for the 1942 musical film Holiday Inn. It won an Academy Award for Best Original Song and Bing Crosby's recording topped the Billboard chart in 1942, 1943 and 1944. It returned to the charts several more times, selling more than 50 million physical copies to date. This amount is doubled when cover versions by other artists are included. This arrangement is a Baroque-style instrumentation; two violins, a soloistic obbligato viola da gamba, organ and/or harpsichord (played tasto) and a part for a bass instrument or two, figured for the optional lute or theorbo. This is a new arrangement, rather than a transcription of a known version. It is in the same tonality as Bing Crosby's hit record but has only one framed chorus. The organ/ cembalo part, where treetops glisten in the snow, has a cheeky reference to a concert in which an organist triumphantly flipped the last page of their hardback score with such gusto that it dropped onto the keys in the silence between the end of an oratorio and the start of the applause. The part for viola da gamba might need some preparation by a competent player and would be quite a challenge for a daring cellist. The other parts are on the easy side of intermediate. Duration: ca 1'50'' May your days be merry and bright!

Jazz Combo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.781983 By Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney. By Irving Berlin. Arranged by Aaron Hettinga. Christmas,Contemporary,Holiday,Jazz,Standards. Score and parts. 10 pages. Aaron Hettinga #6027125. Published by Aaron Hettinga (A0.781983). This lesser known holiday-season standard by the great Irving Berlin is available here for 4 Trombones and Rhythm section. This ballad had its debut in the classic film White Christmas with Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney.This arrangement was written as a Head chart where, after the initial rundown of the melody, the form is repeated for as many soloists as are desired before a final repeat playing the tune and proceeding to the second ending. Chord changes are provided in all parts for flexibility in soloist selection. For the most part, the ensemble parts are accessible to a broad range of playing abilities, but the top part is the greater challenge for range and melodic lyricism.Performance options: This ballad runs the risk of dragging along so slowly that it feels interminable. Even at a moderately slow tempo, it’s important to keep things moving. If it feels that the solo section takes too long, it also works well to bring the ensemble back at the B section of the melody (meas. 21) for a briefer wrap up.

Score. 3 pages. Artist of Note, Inc. #848450. Published by Artist of Note, Inc. (A0.1254897). Written in 1918 while Russian immigrant Irving Berlin was serving in the Army, God Bless America was revised and introduced to the nation by Kate Smith in a 1938 Armistice Day radio broadcast. It has remained an anthem of national hope ever since. And, although the relentless pace of radio and other media has not been a friend to its original Broadway style introduction, even Wikipedia recognizes the song as taking “the form of a prayer for God’s blessing and peace.�While its original sheet music edition was not particularly inviting to play, this arrangement will make it far more accessible to singer and accompanist alike, while preserving both the original key for group singing and the unique introduction that settles the question of whether it is merely a sincere wish or a heartfelt prayer.Available from Sheet Music Directhttps://www.sheetmusicdirect.com/en-US/se/ID_No/1351316/Product.aspxSheet Music PlusThanks, as always to our good friends at ArrangeMe.com, a division of Hal Leonard, LLC!

Score and parts. 47 pages. Francesco Protasi #774432. Published by Francesco Protasi (A0.1174269). This Irving Berlin classic has been arranged in a Basie-esque swing style. Originally commissioned for the B. Reed Henderson High School Jazz Ensemble, it has since been adapted for Little Big Band. This chart is meant to really lay back, but dont be fooled. The harmonies are meant to sing, even quietly, so there should be some intensity behind every note, and don't be afraid to exaggerate what is on the page. Rhythms, articulations, dynamics, everything is fair game. It's a simple chart, but it is more than capable of packing a punch!
