Trombone solo - Difficult - Digital Download SKU: MQ.7548-E Composed by Clare Shore. 3 pages. E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital #7548-E. Published by E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.7548-E). Sojourn 1 for trombone solo is the first in a series of works for solo instruments titled Sojourn by the composer. Sojourn 1, a single-movement work, was commissioned by trombonist Monique Buzzarte who requested that, rather than employing a plethora of extended techniques as is so often the case in works for solo instrument, this piece would sing. Though much of the time this piece is rather melancholy in feel, with its sojourn referring to life's ephemerality, Sojourn 1 is loosely based on the traditional spiritual Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child, with the outline of the melody growing in apparency toward the end of the work.

The five movements included are Wade in the Water, Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child, Deep River, My Lord Delivered Daniel, and Bamboula. This instrumental setting preserves the energy and warmth of the original. Expose your students to this important style of American Music. Each movement contains a brief description as well as illustration.       The violin parts include Advanced Violin, Violin I, Violin II, Violin Book 1, and Twinkle Violin. Since note reading and ensemble playing pose additional challenges, I have made the Twinkle Violin part quite basic, with an emphasis on open strings and basic rhythmic patterns. The Violin Book 1 part is more challenging, designed for players who have finished or about to finish Suzuki Violin School, Book 1. The Advanced Violin part occasionally extends to fifth position, while the Violin I part remains mainly in first Position, with only and occasional use of third position. Violin II remains in first position. The Advanced Violin part is optional. It may be omitted, replace the Violin I part, or both Advanced Violin and Violin I parts may be used, depending on the needs and level of your group. 6 of each part have been included. The entire suite totals 12 ½ minutes.

SATB choir unaccompanied - Moderately Difficult - Digital Download SKU: MQ.5131-E Composed by Gwyneth W. Walker. Instrument part. 23 pages. E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital #5131-E. Published by E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.5131-E). English.Motherless Child is derived, in part, from the African-American spiritual Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child. The original song dates back to the era of slavery when it was common practice to sell children of slaves away from their parents. In this new adaptation, the theme of separation or alienation (away from home, apart from one's community is viewed as universal and eternal. Everyone at some time feels like a motherless child. But as one expresses these feelings, one realizes a common bond with humanity. And one is no longer alone. Thus a more hopeful refrain is woven into the lyrics of the spiritual:Hold on. Hold on, We are together. And we are one.
