Schadl (A0.912505). Theme and Variations on TRSCH is a piece that is suitable for concert use. As one plays the piece, one shall realize that each variation has its own character. The work also may be used for educational purposes in that it teaches students on how a theme is transformed rhythmically and arranged melodically.Theme And Variations On TRSCH For Organ by Thomas R. Schadl consists of seven variations that are based on TRSCH (B flat, D, E flat, C, and B or A# D D# C B). It is written using the serial technique, the compositional method where a row of notes are arranged in direct, reverse, inverse and retrograde-inverse orders. The technique employed is not as strict as the 12-tone system used in the compositions of Arnold Schoenberg and Anton Webern. In a standard theme and variations form, the melody may be altered by adding or subtracting notes, or changing it rhythmically, but it is not the case in the piece being discussed. Most variations do not follow the rhythmic pattern of the main theme; rather, the theme in each variation is treated in fragments, lengthened note values, shortened note values, inversions and reversed orders. Each variation explores moods and the work is organized this way:Main Theme: m 1-6           TRSCH is stated in the bass.Variation I:     m 7-22         FugatoVariation II     m 23-50       Mystical quality and lyrical Variation III   m 51-88       Scherzo, lyrical section, scherzoVariation IV   m 89-116     ToccataVariation V     m 117-224   Mystical mood, scherzo, mystical moodVariation VI   m 225-297   Toccata, brief lyrical section, toccataVariation VII   m 298-317   Variation I but at a slower speed.Forward                           ReverseA# D D# C     B             F   F # A G# EF# A# B   G# G             C# D   F   E   CF   A   A# G   F#            C   C# E D#   BG# C   C# A# A             D# E   G F#   DA   C# D   B   A#            E   F   G# G   D#

Piano Solo - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1033094 Composed by M.E. Speer. Contemporary. Score. 5 pages. Mary Speer #6072753. Published by Mary Speer (A0.1033094). This piece is great for young children beginning adults alike. First, there is an Alberti bass in the left hand for most of the piece; Alberti bass is a patterned bass used by the likes of Mozart, and it is a relatively easy way to allow for the suspension of a chord.  The pedaling for this piece can also teach students how to change the pedal when changing chord harmonies in a fairly simplified pattern that usually lasts a measure.  The dynamic markings are sparse at this point, but guide the student to start paying attention to loud and soft dynamics, and it is a good learning lesson about breaks and pauses in the music at the end of one patterned phrase and beginning of another.  The music itself leaves a lot of room for emotive expression because one can play with a rubato that allows one to stretch some measures to emphasize certain harmonies.  The whole piece sounds as if it were a setting of fairy tale set in the misty mountains complete with wizards, elves, and princesses.  It is perfect for an ambient and poetic mood of a player who would like to learn a relatively simple piece.  To practice this piece, try perfecting each section before going on to the next. 

Piano,Vocal,Voice - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1470648 By Marcos Fernandez-Barrero. By Marcos Fernandez-Barrero. 21st Century,Chamber,Christian,Opera,Sacred. Score. 17 pages. Marcos Fernandez-Barrero #1048301. Published by Marcos Fernandez-Barrero (A0.1470648). Work commissioned for mezzo-soprano Sandra Ferrández and pianist Irene Alfageme to be premiered at the Teatro de la Zarzuela (Madrid) on 1st April 2024.The piece takes inspiration from the the XV Century Spanish poem by anonymous author 'Van Y Vienen', which gave the lyrics of the work. Although the poem was written in the Middle Ages, it resonates with a timeless universality, allowing for a deep connection with the contemporary audience. Its metaphor of the sea as a reflection of human emotions – that come and go like the waves of the sea – transcends eras, resonating with the instability and hope that characterize the human experience.By using it as lyrics for a sort of contemporary habanera, I saw the possibility of merging the nostalgia of the past with the artistic expression of the present, creating a bridge between different historical moments through music and poetry. ____________________________________________________________________Obra encargo para el estreno a cargo de la mezzosoprano Sandra Ferrández y la pianista Irene Alfageme en el Teatro de la Zarzuela (Madrid) el 1 de abril de 2024. La pieza se utiliza el poema anónimo del siglo XV 'Van y Vienen'. Aunque fue escrito en la Edad Media, resuena con una universalidad atemporal, permitiendo una profunda conexión en la era actual. Su metáfora del mar como reflejo de las emociones humanas – que van y vienen como las olas del mar – trasciende épocas, resonando con la inestabilidad y la esperanza que caracterizan la experiencia humana. Al utilizarlo como letra para una especie de habanera contemporánea, vi la posibilidad de fusionar la nostalgia del pasado con la expresión artística del presente, creando un puente entre diferentes momentos históricos a través de la música y la poesía.
