When you reach a scale that is enharmonic for another key (Db/C#, Gb/F#, or Cb/B), they are presented in both keys for each instrument so Trumpets can play in Eb while the Flutes are playing in C# with similar examples for all keys.All Donut Etudes with the same volume number are compatible so you can play them in mixed quartets or large ensembles with one or more instruments/people on part 1 and a different instrument on part 2, etc. Since the quartets are all identical, conductors/coaches can use any of the scores to tell which part should be playing at what time.

Vocal Solo,Voice - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.888252 Composed by Edward David Zeliff. Contemporary. 43 pages. Edward David Zeliff #4765299. Published by Edward David Zeliff (A0.888252). This is a dramatic and highly effective vocal work for one soprano with piano accompaniment. It can be staged with a single prop of a small armchair, or performed as a stand-alone song cycle. It tells the story of a Woman and the Great Love in her life. This Love is called off to war, and she is so sensitive that she knows when the conflict has taken her Partner from her forever. She then has to deal with her loss and come to a point of release. The entire libretto is constructed from the poetry of the 19th century American poet Emily Dickinson. The music is modern yet melodically and harmonically accessible to audiences and performers alike. It is very powerful and communicates a great depth of feeling.

Published by Phil Beaman (A0.1394185). This Baroque piece was originally written by Jean Loeillet as part of a Harpsichord Suite.  It is written in the Italian Corant style in the characteristic Fast(Allegro) 3/4 with rapid running passages of eighth notes (quavers) which alternate scalar steps with large leaps.  Traditionally the piece would have been performed very cleanly, not legato.My arrangement takes the melody and passes it between the three instrument parts.  I wrote a highly ornamented continuo for each part when not playing melody.  In true Baroque style I have created a tight interplay between the parts.  Each part also has a rather wide range of about 2 octaves.  Although in a Minor Key, this piece is very bright and uplifting.  It is very accessible and thus a concert crowd pleaser.   Great for the student recitals too to learn and show mastery of Baroque techniques of clean ensemble playing and ornamentation.  Most of all, this piece is just Pure Fun!6 pages score, 2 pages @ partRanges -Violin -  bottom space F# to high E above staffTrumpet - bottom line E# to high B above staffTrombone - low C below staff to high E above staff.

Although it is often associated with the Catholic prayer, Schubert's music is actually an adaptation of a work by Walter Scott, a Scottish poet. Schubert composed the melody as part of his piece Ellens Gesang III (Ellen's Song III), which is a series of songs based on Scott's poems.Ave Maria was composed in 1825 and is one of the most popular and beloved pieces in the classical repertoire. The gentle and melancholic melody, combined with the Latin lyrics invoking the Virgin Mary, evokes a sense of serenity and devotion. While it was originally written for voice and piano, the melody has also been adapted for various instruments and choirs.Interestingly, Schubert was unaware that his melody would become widely known as Ave Maria. The original title of the composition is Ellens Gesang III: Hymne an die Jungfrau (Ellen's Song III: Hymn to the Virgin). The fame of Ave Maria came later when different versions of the melody were published and performed with the Latin lyrics.Due to its beauty and emotional appeal, Schubert's Ave Maria has been performed on numerous occasions, from religious ceremonies to concerts and solemn events. The piece continues to move and inspire listeners around the world, highlighting Franz Schubert's genius as a composer.

Score. 3 pages. DAVID LEE GINGRAS #1018580. Published by DAVID LEE GINGRAS (A0.1438554). We'll Be Together Again is a 1945 popular song composed by Carl T. Fischer, with lyrics by Frankie Laine. Fischer was Laine's pianist and musical director when he composed the tune, and Laine was asked to write the lyrics for it. The Pied Pipers were the first to release the song, and as well as Laine, it has since been recorded by such notable vocalists as Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Rosemary Clooney, Lou Rawls and Tony Bennett. This version features a root-based chord blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements. We added what we think are some pretty cool left-hand fills that we hope you will like! It's a fun song and not too hard to play!

Choral Choir (TTBB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.984180 By Billy Joel. By Billy Joel. Arranged by Deb Jones. Pop,Rock. Octavo. 20 pages. Deb Jones #4737103. Published by Deb Jones (A0.984180). Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)     This absolutely gorgeous song was written by Billy Joel in response, I believe, to his young daughter asking him what happens when people die and, as he didn’t believe in the afterlife, he was trying to avoid answering her.   I was asked to arrange this as a duet with a cello and a ‘smattering of (SSA) choir.’  As I was listening to recordings of this song, a second voice emerged for me, possibly someone who has passed on, calmly lulling the child to sleep whilst her father is trying to distract her from her questions. This was indeed the interpretation felt by people I played it to who found it very moving.   This version has been reformatted for male voices, so duet, cello, smattering of TTBB.   I hope you enjoy it.   Included in this pack are a full score, vocal score and cello part with what I hope are useful cues for you to navigate your way around the piece.   Other formats will be available shortly with more choir involvement and for those without access to a cello.     Formats available Duet, cello, SSA Duet, cello, TTBB

This is the easiest part of the arrangement. If you´re a beginner then start from here. It´s just variations of G-A-Bm chord progression with different rhythms and in different positions.   2) Melody Melody part of Something Just Like This by The Chainsmokers & Colplay arranged for 3 guitars (rhythm, melody & rhythm 2). As usual, the melody is the hardest part, since it features lots of slides and legatos. The chorus part features some funky rhythm playing as well. If you´re a beginner, then simplify as much as ou can – leave out all the embelishments, play simpler rhythms, leave out notes when there are more than one note played at a time etc etc.   3) Rhythm 2 Rhythm 2 part of Something Just Like This by The Chainsmokers & Colplay arranged for 3 guitars (rhythm, melody & rhythm 2). A little trickier rhythm part features some fingerstyle playing, also hiting the guitar as a drum. The strumming patterns are quite easy, but try to get a steady drum-like beat going on. In the choruses there are some power chords and in the ending we have some riffs as well.

Lyons Music Services #6421951. Published by Lyons Music Services (A0.767576). Johann Christoph Pezel is largely unknown today, save for this short Intrada. he was actually quite influential in the development of instruments musical forms and an accomplished clarino trumpet player as well as a composer of much sacred and secular music.This is a great opener for concerts and works well both inside and outside (and, surprisingly, when socially distanced!)The difficulty of this piece depends almost entirely on how fast you want to take it! It is marked as Allegro, but that was a vague term in the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The recording is at 120bpm, but I have heard it played as widely different as 100bpm and 140bpm.Your choice!

Concert Band - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1460862 By Ost (original Soundtrack). By Charles Bernstein. Arranged by Patrick Jillett. 20th Century,Contemporary,Film/TV,Halloween,Holiday. 35 pages. Patrick Jillett #1039765. Published by Patrick Jillett (A0.1460862). A Haunting Ode to Terror: The Theme from A Nightmare on Elm Street”The iconic theme from A Nightmare on Elm Street, composed by Charles Bernstein, is a masterclass in building tension and suspense. This eerie melody has become synonymous with the horror genre and the terror that Freddy Krueger embodies. The moment the notes begin to play, you know you're in for a ride into your nightmares. The theme's foundation is a slow, pulsing rhythm that conjures an unsettling sense of unease. As the melody unfolds, it becomes increasingly dissonant and unsettling, creating an otherworldly atmosphere that's both mesmerizing and terrifying. The way the texture weaves together creates a sense of chaos and disorder. It’s an audible representation of the chaos and panic that ensues when Freddy invades your dreams. The notes seem to shatter and reform into a soundscape of terror. This theme has become an integral part of horror movie history, evoking fear and dread in listeners worldwide. It's a testament to Bernstein's mastery of atmosphere and tension that this music can still send shivers down your spine even decades after its release.Rating: 9/10 - A must-listen for horror fans and anyone who loves a good scare!

Recorded at the Peace Palace, Sedona, AZ on a Steinway B in June of 2020. This is a sexy, super relaxed and very positive swing tune. It’s a great follow up to In the Flow because when one doesn’t fight what is and actually goes with the flow, life is So Easy. It also fits in well with the album as it is Feel Good Music.

It was created in 1958, a time when Taiwan not only experienced the tragic 228 Incident but was also enveloped in the high-pressure rule of the Kuomintang's White Terror. The composer hoped to express nostalgia through music, infusing the melody with a strong Taiwanese folk style, and providing hope through the lyrics. Although this song was once banned by the Kuomintang government, it has still been sung by many Taiwanese singers, including famous ones like Chiang Hui, Hong Ronghong, and Feng Feifei. Furthermore, it was selected as one of the performance songs at President Tsai Ing-wen's inauguration ceremony.I have arranged this piece for violin and piano, with a difficulty level equivalent to Grade 5 of the ABRSM.「阮若心�扉を開�れ��������典的��湾�歌��作曲家�呂泉生�作曲��文学者�王昶雄�作詞��1958年�制作�れ���。当時��湾��悲惨�228事件を経験����り����国民党�白色テロ�高圧支�下��り���。作曲家��音楽を通��ノスタルジアを表���メロディ��湾�民謡��素を�り入れ�歌詞�希望を与��������。��曲����国民党政府�よ���止�れ������れ�も多���湾�歌手�よ��歌�れ�����。江蕙�大�百��洪榮��鳳飛飛�����例��。�ら��蔡英文大統領�就任����演�曲�����れ���。����曲をヴァイオリン�ピアノ����アレンジ��難易度�英国王立音楽院�試験�Grade 5�相当���。.

Piano Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1314290 By PIano - Sebastian Kurz. By Geraldine (Denny) Green. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Romantic Period. Score. 27 pages. Geraldine (Denny) Green at Oakmountmusic #903031. Published by Geraldine (Denny) Green at Oakmountmusic (A0.1314290). Written in 2008, Miscellany, 7 short movements for solo piano, was Commissioned by conductor/pianist Anthony Davie.Duration: approx 15 minutes in total.Inspired by friends, family and general life experiences, this set of short pieces encompasses a range of moods; from Romantic and melodic to comical and dissonant.Movement 1. Didi – Didi was a very unique and special friend for many years. She gave out great spiritual strength and insight into this very confusing world in which we all live. She was a real tower of quiet, gentle strength.Movement 2. Brew! – This movement was inspired directly by the Brewing Industry. It strives to depict the hustle and bustle of a busy, working brewery and the the many hilarious, fabulous people I met during my three years in the beer-making industry.Movement 3 – Convent Cherub – This little piece began life as the opening title music of a film score I worked on while at college. The film itself, entitled My Brother Rob, was made by Alison Hilder, a student director at the Harrow School of Film. The story told of a young boy traumatised by a convent boarding school up-bringing. I have felt for many years that this little main theme has needed an alternative home, as much film music is never played again.Movement 4 – Megan – This movement comes directly from my wonderful and beautiful daughter, who was 5 years old at the time of the writing of this piece. It seeks to express her wild vibrance, eternal cheekiness, infinite energy, sparkle and the utter fearlessness of youth.Movement 5 – Edward – This music is for my gorgeous little son, who has Down’s Syndrome, and was only 3 at the time of the writing of this piece. The opening came to me moments after the doctor had confirmed Edward had Down’s, when he was only 6 hours old. The music tries to convey the fear of the unknown, huge unconditional love and moments of uncertainty alternated by washes of strength. And yet, all through the fear the resolve to forever love and stay strong always wins.Movement 6 – Indifference – The opening 4 notes are the core of this movement, and the piece is built around and from them. This music is an observation of deep, rumbling frustration at the indifference growing in our fast moving, modern society.Movement 7 – “Wee Us� – This movement expresses family triumph, the gifts of life and love, and the glory of boundless, wild, youthful energy. This tune has not yet run its course. It will be back!
