Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quartet Clarinet - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.914231 Composed by Henry Harry Thacker Burleigh. Arranged by Craig Buying. African,Concert,Contemporary,Spiritual,Traditional. 9 pages. No Squeak Publishing #4321957. Published by No Squeak Publishing (A0.914231). Harry Burleigh was an African American composer who often used Southern spiritual music as the influence for his compositions.  He studied with Dvorak in New York, and is primarily known for he transcription of slave songs into classical forms.  This arrangement of Southland Sketches is the 3rd mvt of his work for violin and piano written in 1916.  It features two main sections, and the work is about three and a half minutes.  This piece is suitable for mature musicians for programming and can also be performed by younger players.  Every instrument gets a share of the melodies, including bass clarinet.  While not a technically difficult work (nothing above a high C), playing with the correct inflections, blend, and tone is critical to a great performance. This work is always a crowd pleaser, and is a wonderful gateway into the compositions of a relatively unknown American composer.  Wonderful for Patriotic concerts, recitals, retirement homes, and Black History Month.

Chamber,Folk,Historic,Multicultural,Rock,World. 22 pages. Green Bicycle Music #990996. Published by Green Bicycle Music (A0.1408410). Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Man_(song)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_the_United_StatesThis is a setting of Neil Young's SOUTHERN MAN (from the album AFTER THE GOLD RUSH) for woodwind quintet and optional percussion.The song is chosen by the arranger as a reponse to recent confisions surrounding the poisonouslegacy of Slavery, and various questionable debates regarding its history in America.Ironically, the arranger was originally ready to mention the song written as a response to thissong by the band Lynyrd Skynyrd, but found interesting information on Wikipedia (the links areprovided). Apparently the song by Young that spurred Lynyrd Skynyrd to write SWEET HOME ALABAMAwas the one titled simply ALABAMA, which is on the album HARVEST. Also interesting was the information that the bands and composers did get along, even showing this by wearing each other'st-shirts when performing.This arrangement is advanced grade 3 or grade 4, with no extreme playing in the outer registers,or meter changes, etc.. The optional percussion can be added to create a more solemn-march feel.The socio-political element is not varied or diffused in any way. If possible, the complete lyricsshould be contained in program notes. This piece offers a serious contemplation of the history andhorror of Slavery in America.

Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.810733). Cornet solos are an important part of the American Brass tradition. The Southern Cross is one of Clarke's most well known Cornet solos and was written in 1911, dedicated to the Australians and first recorded by the composer with Orchestra the next year  for Victor Records. During 1911, Clarke was the solo Cornetist of the Sousa Band while the band was on a world tour that included visits to South Africa, Tazmania and Australia from March through to August. Below is a photo of the Sousa band from their 1911 tour. Clarke is sitting in the front row 5th in from the right with his moustache and his Cornet on his lap. He assuredly composed this solo to perform on that tour. The Southern Cross is a constellation that is only seen from the southern hemisphere and features the five stars of the Cross from the 1901 design of the Australian flag. This 5-minute virtuosic arrangement by Geoffrey Bergler features not only the Cornet, but a bit of all the other four members of the Brass Quintet. Instrumentation is for: 2 Trumpets in B-flat (Trumpet 1 solo, Trumpet 2 also plays Piccolo) Horn, Trombone Tuba/Bass Trombone The sound track features Mr. Bergler from his student days as Cornet soloist.
