Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quintet Bassoon,Clarinet,English Horn,Flute,Piccolo - Digital Download SKU: A0.1411593 Composed by John Davison. Arranged by Daniel Kaplan. 20th Century,Chamber,Classical. 39 pages. Daniel Kaplan #993825. Published by Daniel Kaplan (A0.1411593). Kaplan has fond memories of studying composition with John Davison at Haverford College, where music majors received a copy of his book, Piano Music I. This has been a beloved companion through the years, always occupying a prominent place on the piano. The Introduction and Dance is by turns introspective and witty, and works well in a woodwind-quintet arrangement (even though here and there some notes are omitted—after all, a pianist has more than five fingers!—or raised or lowered by an octave). The arranger recalls Davison explaining that the Dance reflected his experience improvising for a Morris-dancing group. This is part of Kaplan's project to broaden the repertoire of music available to woodwind-quintet players by arranging both great classics and little-known gems. Several more of these arrangements have been (or will soon be) posted to YouTube and are available for purchase through SheetMusicPlus or SheetMusicDirect.Note that this quintet includes an optional piccolo part, for flautists who can double on piccolo.

Violin and piano - advanced - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q20941 Composed by Martin Meliton Pablo de Sarasate y Navascuez. This edition: Sheet music. Violin Library. Downloadable. Op. 43. Schott Music - Digital #Q20941. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q20941). Pablo de Sarasate (1844-1908), undoubtedly, is one of the most important and most successful violin virtuosos of the second half of the 19th century and has become immortal through his virtuoso and highly expressive bravura pieces in the world of violin playing. His concert programme mostly consisted of his own compositions, even if quite a few works had been dedicated to him by fellow composers and tailor-made for him: for example, 'Symphonie espagnole' by Lalo, 'Scottish Fantasia' by Bruch and violin works by Saint-Saëns and Wieniawski. In 1899 Sarasate composed one of his most popular, non-Spanish pieces, 'Introduction & Tarantella' Op. 43, which was published in the following year, even in a version with orchestra accompaniment. The tarantella, a folk dance in 6/8 metre, comes from southern Italy and has developed from dance tunes played in Apulia for people suffering from tarantism. According to popular belief, the bite of a tarantula caused tarantism which was supposed to be cured by wild dancing. Go and try if Sarasate's salon piece really has medicinal properties!

This piece is the penultimate number in the collection: Five Longer Piano Pieces. Duration: 5 minutes. Difficulty: Intermediate (Grade 3)Appropriate for schools and students. ‘Charles McCreerys beautifully melodic, intricately textured compositions are infused with classical, romantic and folk idioms.’ - Samantha Gillogly, violinist   Charles McCreery was educated at Eton and New College, Oxford. While at Eton he won the Rowe Cup for junior pianists, and in his final year performed Weber's Konzertstück with a chamber orchestra. As an undergraduate he studied piano with Hilda Bor, and won a piano class, adjudicated by Herbert Howells, at the Willesden Music Festival. From 1988 to 1991 he held a Perrott Warrick Studentship from Trinity College, Cambridge, and he has a doctorate from Oxford University. From 1996 to 2000 he was a College Lecturer at Magdalen College, Oxford. In 1996 Charles McCreery's 'Elegy for Violin and Piano' was shortlisted for the Match Composition Prize.   A comment on Charles McCreery’s collection of Tolkien songs: ‘For those who only know Tolkien via the recent blood-and-thunder films, this song-cycle by Charles McCreery will give a very different angle on the classic saga. Here we find a gentle and ethereal world, where rhythms lilt and words echo. The twelve songs, suitable for choir, evoke a dreamy, water-colour landscape with no harsh sounds, the tunes are singable and in a traditional style that Tolkien would surely have approved.’ - Dr Julia Gasper, LGSM A bound and illustrated vocal score (voice parts with piano accompaniment) of the complete set of his ‘Fourteen Tolkien Songs for Childrens Voices’ is available from Amazon:http://www.amazon.com/Fourteen-Tolkien-Songs-Childrens-Voices/dp/1492187534 A CD of twelve of Charles McCreery’s orchestral pieces can also be purchased from Amazon:http://www.amazon.com/Music-King-Eldred-opera-children/dp/B00LWEEMHA/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&......

Full Orchestra - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1284960 By Trevor Denyer. By Guiseppi Verdi. Arranged by Trevor Denyer. 19th Century,Opera,Romantic Period. Score and Parts. 112 pages. Trevor Denyer #876085. Published by Trevor Denyer (A0.1284960). This opening extract from Verdi's Ernani is a suitably dramatic and energetic piece for chorus and orchestra. It will fit into an opening section of an opera fiesta, while being less known than many others.While Ernani is not well known these days, it was first performed on 9 March 1844, and it was immensely popular, and was revived countless times during its early years. It became Verdi's most popular opera until it was superseded by Il trovatore after 1853. In 1904, it became the first opera to be recorded completely.As usual with my offerings, print each part double-sided as presented, and the page turns will work.
