While there are lots of different renditions of Canon in D by Johann Pachelbel out there, this version cut straight to the point. It consists of 5 sections; each holds a different idea that build-up to the famous violin melody, and fades out to the octave leap passage. This sheet music is labeled with rehearsal markings and chords. It is a good introduction to a 1-5-1 left-hand accompaniment, which is essential in piano playing. Suitable for Grade 2 and above's learning.

This arrangement of Debussy's tone poem Prelude a l'apres-midi d'un faune (Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun) fills a void in the chamber ensemble repertoire. Advanced harpists with limited access to string players will appreciate the instrumentation of the work - flute, clarinet, and pedal harp. While the full score contains no harp-specific markings, the harp part is well-edited (by a harpist) with pedal changes, pedal charts, and all necessary flute/clarinet cues. Both Bb and A clarinet are required for performance. A full score, three separate parts, performance notes, and an info sheet are included.

Adon Olam, by D.A. De Sola (1796-1860), of the Bevis Marks Synagogue in London; for solo voice and guitar

    This is one of the most beautifully arranged short pieces in the Sweetwater Brass Press catalog.
   Jean-Paul-Égide Martini wrote Plaisir d'amour in 1784. He took the words from a poem that appears in Célestine, a short novel by Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian. The poem begins, Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment (The pleasure of love lasts only a moment). Over the years, Martini’s melody has proved popular with other composers, including Hector Berlioz and Louis van Waefelghem. Two relatively recent songs that made use of the plaintiff refrain are the Christian hymn, My God Loves Me and the song Can't Help Falling in Love, which was performed by Elvis Presley in the film, Blue Hawaii.
   This arrangement is not technically difficult, but it does require discipline and interpretation. As in the original, there are two key changes, F to A-flat and then back to F.  The time signature has been changed from Martini’s 6/8 to ¾ but retains all relative note values. Trumpet 1 plays the melody with occasional harmony from Trumpet 2. Horn in F provides arpeggio accompaniment throughout most of the song, with some help from Tuba and Trombone. With respect to high and low notes: Trumpet 1 has one A5 grace note (to a G5 quarter note); Trumpet 2 has three above-staff quarter notes in a row, A5, B5 and A5; Trombone has one F4; and Tuba has a number of F1 notes and one section of octave jumps involving F2 to F3 and A2 to A3.
   This arrangement was completed in 2018, and performance time runs about 3 minutes, 51 seconds. The arranger, Les Smith, would be very interested in your comments; contact him at lessmith@ufl.edu or leave a review on the SheetMusicPlus website.

This arrangement is a clean score without chord symbols for easy-intermediate piano of the classical Nocturne in E-flat major. It is also a transposed score in D major. The pianist Frédéric Chopin composed the work in the romantic period in the 19th Century. The work is a standard piece of the traditional piano repertoire. 

The arrangement features the main melody in the right-hand. The left-hand accompanies the melody with broken chord. The small cadenza was omitted at the end of this simplified version. Fingering marks are available through the arrangement.
