1 Piano,4 Hands,Piano Duet - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1085779 Composed by Nancy Bachmann. Classical,Contemporary,Instructional. Score. 32 pages. Nancy Bachmann #689948. Published by Nancy Bachmann (A0.1085779). This volume contains five engaging four-hand Concert Duets, each with a different musical character to expand the players' interpretive experience and please audiences. In addition, every piece focuses on a specific technique or skill that the intermediate pianist needs to master. I composed these pieces to address some of the problems common to intermediate-level piano players. There are special advantages to playing duets at this stage of advancement, beyond encouraging technical and musical progress. Working on duets with another player will inject fresh enthusiasm into music study at a time when some intermediate students may experience a plateau in progress. We are, undeniably, social creatures, and making music together has a special joy. However, unlike choral singers and band or orchestral players, the pianist is often left out of the ensemble experience until relatively advanced. Intermediate pianists will truly benefit from the energizing effects of studying a piece of music with one another. Indeed, striving toward the shared goal of an expressive duet performance requires each player to develop the entire spectrum of skills: aural, technical, personal and interpretive that combine to make a complete musician. || These Concert Duets for Intermediate Pianists are fascinating and attractive pieces, and they will be a valuable contribution to the duet repertory. The highly instructive directions to the players will prepare them to enter the world of duet playing and explore its treasures. —William Corbett-Jones, Concert Pianist, International Award-Winning Recording Artist, SFSU Professor Emeritus || These are great duets; imaginative and expressive. What a wonderful way tor my intermediate students to learn essential skills! —Joan Cifarelli, Jazz/Classical Pianist, Pedagogue.

Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.957954 Composed by Joshua Sharo. Contemporary,Standards. Score. 2 pages. Joshua Sharo #3096361. Published by Joshua Sharo (A0.957954). Practice Tips: In order to play this piece, you must be able to play octave chords with multiple notes and be able to fluidly switch hand positions. Keep in mind that an F-flat is an E, an E double-flat is a D, and a B double-flat is an A. The third beat of measure 22, then, is a third: A-C. The right hand ostinato (repeating pattern) will get annoying if you play the B-flats too loudly. Instead, voice the lower notes whenever the pattern appears. The left hand has the melody in the second two lines of the piece. Make sure to voice the top of all of the chords. When the right hand enters with the same melody, it also continues some of the opening ostinato – make sure that the theme is clearly heard. Don't get too loud in measure 15. Remember that the loudest section is still to come! There are a lot of notes in measures 21-26. If you're not careful, it will sound muddy and dull. Give the most attention to the top note of the right hand and the bottom note of the left hand – this will help make your sound more clear. If you are having problems with some of the jumps (such as the left hand in measure 23), make sure you have a good fingering and then drill it multiple times. Start at a very slow metronome speed and gradually move up by 5 BPM until it gets too hard. If you do this day after day, you should eventually be able to play it! If this piece is too difficult, there exists an alternate version in C major. Most of the hard jumps have been removed. The end is also slightly different and should be easier to voice.

Guitar Ensemble Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1149071 Composed by Britt Andrew Burns. Classical,Contemporary. Score and parts. 40 pages. Indie Classical Publications #749196. Published by Indie Classical Publications (A0.1149071). Reclamation Suite includes six of the variations from Reclamation Variations, which was composed from March to May in 2020. The pandemic had exposed many of the underlying problems in the Western world. In addition to the health crisis, the class war between the wealthy and the poor looks to widen even more in the coming years with high inflation increasing. A long reclamation period to restore what has severely eroded over many decades is what I see coming for much of the Western world. As a result, this music reflects a somber tone, but also of determination and affirmation.

Peet du Toit #1071801. Published by Peet du Toit (A0.1495281). Call Me Irresponsible is a 1962 song composed by Jimmy Van Heusen with lyrics written by Sammy Cahn which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1963.According to the Mel Tormé book The Other Side of the Rainbow with Judy Garland on the Dawn Patrol, Van Heusen originally wrote the song for Garland to sing at a CBS dinner. At that time, Garland had just signed to do The Judy Garland Show on CBS, and the intent of the song was to parody her well-known problems. Garland later sang the song on the seventh episode of the show.However, in 1988, Sammy Cahn said during an interview with freelance writer Harlan Conti, in San Francisco, that the song was originally written for Fred Astaire to sing in the film Papa's Delicate Condition in which Astaire was to star. Cahn personally auditioned the song for Astaire's approval, which was given. However, Astaire's contractual obligations prevented him from making the film and the role went to Jackie Gleason, who introduced the song. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 36th Academy Awards held in 1964.Cahn is said to have had a particular satisfaction in the number of five-syllable words in the lyrics of Call Me Irresponsible.Being born in 1963, you can call me irresponsible for orchestrating this lovely jazz standard. Nevertheless, live has begun! Enjoy with me.

NOTES on Tears for a Dying PlanetTears for a Dying Planet paints a musical picture of a troubled world. It broadly expresses all of my pent-up fears, anger and frustrations which continue to lay heavily on my mind as our world descends into unsavory and uncharted territory. These problems run the gamut; endless military conflicts, threats of nuclear war, xenophobia, racism, anti-Semitism, science denial, steep political divisions, mass shootings, and not least by any means, climate change leading to extreme weather conditions across the globe.Tears for a Dying Planet is in a softly-played free form and contains several episodes which culminate into a forceful nine-note “death� chord representing grief and anger.  A single bar of recovery silence is offered honoring all who have suffered and continue to do so. --Daniel Burwasser NYC, February, 2024You can contact the composer directly at: danielburwasser9@gmail.comWebsite: https://www.danielburwasser.com/Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrCnkSRO-XOjUu7bMB8tzCg?view_as=subscriber

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.836712 Composed by Brian Joyce. Christian,Sacred. Octavo. 21 pages. Brian Joyce #4325937. Published by Brian Joyce (A0.836712). If you ever need a break from the soundbyte theology found in so many contemporary Christian lyrics, why not revisit the words of Isaac Watts (1674-1748), who could stretch a single coherent thought across multiple verses of his hymns? Watts was a prolific writer on many subjects, including geography, astronomy, ethics, and psychology. His book on Logic became a standard university text, being used at Oxford for over 100 years. But his greatest desire was to assist Christians in the worship of God and it is his hymns for which he is best remembered today.These old words are here set to new music which represents a blending of three different traditions: First, and most obvious, is the rustic sound of early American shape-note singing. Second is the strong linearity of 13th century Ars Antiqua voice leading, in which each part was more or less independent. And third is my own fondness for mixed meters and sonorities built on fourths and seconds. Yet it all works somehow: these are actually very singable hymns once the choir has acclimated to the style. Most fall comfortably into a simple diatonic language and would present no jarring problems for the listener. Five of the hymns are for standard mixed voices (SATB); one is for men’s voices (TTB); one for women’s (SSA) and the last, a Doxology, is in six parts (SSATTB) with a florid threefold amen. There is admittedly a certain sameness about these settings; perhaps it’s best if they are not all sung in one go, cover to cover. Taken individually, however, there is no reason they couldn’t make for a refreshing change from the usual church anthem, and a group of three or four could easily find a place on a choral recital program.
