Harp - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.849953 Composed by Traditional Japanese. Arranged by Marilyn Rummel. Classical,Standards,World. Score. 6 pages. Demand Music #4298759. Published by Demand Music (A0.849953). Sakura is a famous koto tune from 17th century Japan. It is written in the tuning developed at that time by Yatsuhashi Kengyoo who was a famous performer and teacher of the koto. Hirajoshi, or hira-choshi tuning(choshi = tuning and hira = even, level, tranquil, standard or regular) is an adaptation of traditional Shamisen music.Although often heard with modern western harmonies I have chosen to use only the notes available in this pentatonic tuning. With a harp tuned to Bb major you can play this on the white strings of the harp, making it easy to improvise new left hands or interludes of melody by leaving out your C’s and F’s,This arrangement also includes a version transposed for harps tuned in C or F, to facilitate learning by folks who have not a full set of levers.The first verse is notated with alternating stems to indicate alternating hands. Use the 2nd (or 3, 4, or 5th) finger of each hand and play very close to the soundboard to imitate the koto. by alternating hands you can get close to the soundboard and still connect and phrase the notes by placing one finger before the previous one plays, Use your fingernails if possible - I just grow out the baby finger nails and use those fingers for a change!

Lever Harp - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1452234 By Cecile Corbel. By Cecile Corbel, Simon Caby, and Yoko Ihira. Arranged by Rachael Acheson. Celtic,Children,Film/TV,Folk,Irish,Multicultural,World. Score. 7 pages. TheHarpLibrarian #1031550. Published by TheHarpLibrarian (A0.1452234). This solo harp arrangement of Arrietty's Song from Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli's film The Secret World of Arrietty is wonderfully versatile, while preserving the key and overall character of Cecile Corbel's original piece. It can be played on a lever harp as small as 26 strings, with the lowest note being the C below middle C and the highest being the third G above middle C. It only requires one lever (the A below middle C) to be moved to effectively simulate the chorus key change. It captures both the iconic original celtic harp part, as well as the full melody (with Japanese lyrics taken into account), and also the building/shifting energy that the original piece achieved by adding additional instruments. I think it also successfully solves the problem of remaining interesting and dynamic throughout despite the song being so repetitive. In short, I am particularly proud of this arrangement.In part because it is so note-y, and because it just keeps moving with no room to rest or breathe, this is definitely one of the harder and more advanced pieces I have arranged for small/lap lever harp. It would still sound nice played under tempo, but you will need to maintain a consistent rhythm throughout. I advise practicing the left hand as blocked chords and paying particular attention to the right-hand octaves in the second rendition of the chorus.Please note that the preview cuts off after the first half-page of score. When you download your purchase, you will recieve a pdf that contains both the preview and the full score.

String Quartet String Quartet - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1028516 Composed by Ed Sharpe. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 35 pages. Ed Sharpe #3558305. Published by Ed Sharpe (A0.1028516). This is a short five movement piece for string quartet. Each movement is only about one minute each. And each movement is one line of a tanka that I wrote about Snow (Yuki). I wrote the second movement first and all of the material in the other four movements appears in or is derived from the second movement. Given this, one can think of the first movement as a prelude with the second movement being the main movement. The fifth movement re-states the main motifs of the first four movements, combining them into one large polyphonic mass.Unable to sleep I listen throughout the night to the silent song of falling snow in my yard. With the soft dawn, satori.The first movement is built around the pentatonic scale F# G B C# D. (The Japanese Hirajoshi Scale; 平調�� )The second movement is built around the pentatonic scale C# D F# G# A.The third movement is built around the pentatonic scale D Eb G A Bb.The fourth movement is built around the pentatonic scale C Dd F G Ab, but does not strictly adhere to the scale in places.The fifth movement is built around the pentatonic scale C# D F# G# A, but does not strictly adhere to the scale in places

Concert Band - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1149127 Composed by John Barry and Leslie Bricusse. Arranged by Keith Terrett. Film/TV,Historic,Standards. 37 pages. Keith Terrett #749257. Published by Keith Terrett (A0.1149127). An arrangement for Concert/Wind Band of the classic Bond tune ''You Only Live Twice''. I made this chart back in the 1980's when I was studying orchestration & Arranging under the late and great Lt. Col. Trevor Sharpe. The soundtrack was the fourth of the series to be composed by John Barry. He tried to incorporate the elegance of the Oriental sound with Japanese music-inspired tracks. The theme song, You Only Live Twice, was composed by Barry and lyricist Leslie Bricusse, and sung by Nancy Sinatra after her father Frank Sinatra passed on the opportunity. Nancy Sinatra was reported to be very nervous while recording – first she wanted to leave the studio; then she claimed to sometimes sound like Minnie Mouse.[36] Barry declared that the final song uses 25 different takes. There are two versions of the song You Only Live Twice, sung by Nancy Sinatra, one directly from the movie soundtrack, and a second one for record release arranged by Billy Strange.[citation needed] The movie soundtrack song is widely recognised for its striking opening bars and oriental flavour, and was far more popular on radio. The record release reached No. 44 on the Billboard charts in the US, and No. 11 in the UK. Both versions of the title song are available on CD. A different title song was originally recorded by Julie Rogers, but eventually discarded. Only two lines from that version were kept in the final lyrics, and the orchestral part was changed to fit Sinatra's vocal range. Rogers' version only appeared in a James Bond 30th Anniversary CD, with no singer credit. In the 1990s, an alternative example of a possible theme song (also called You Only Live Twice and sung by Lorraine Chandler) was discovered in the vaults of RCA Records. It became a very popular track with followers of the Northern soul scene (Chandler was well known for her high-quality soul output on RCA) and can be found on several RCA soul compilations.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.972645 Composed by James Siddons. Arranged by James Siddons Music and Writings. 20th Century,Concert,Folk,Gospel,Jazz. Score. 19 pages. James Siddons Music and Writings #4350561. Published by James Siddons Music and Writings (A0.972645). About the Sonata Hymnica Series Program Note Composer James Siddons draws on the ethos of American rural hymns and spirituals to create evocations of the deeper, larger meaning of familiar church melodies. These sonatas for piano solo explore these deeper meanings in a variety of contemporary musical influences, while keeping in mind the acoustics of small rural churches of the late nineteenth century, with wooden floors and walls, high ceilings, and dimensions determined by local builders who knew how to shape a room for excellent acoustics in an age of no electricity and no microphones. These sonatas are but partly about the specific melodies and words, and mostly about their meaning in spiritual contemplation . . . and the piano, resonating, reverberant, sometimes whispering---as a sacred harp. Although these sonatas have no specific titles, the first sonata may be thought of as the Prayer Sonata, the second as the Travel Sonata, as in a spiritual journey, and the third sonata is about our greatest fear, that of being alone and without God. Performance Note The pianist must keep in mind that these sonatas are about playing the piano as much as playing a composition. Musical effects characteristic of the piano and descriptive of the memory in American culture are the substances of these piano solos. Touch is important: in many places, several dynamics are called for on the same beat. All three pedals on an American piano (damper, sostenuto, and sustain) are needed. The orchestral and cinematic structure of this music requires extensive use of three staffs, which may consist of two treble and one bass staff, or one treble and two bass staffs. In basic grand-staff passages, the two staffs may both be treble or both bass. The musical influences in these sonatas include religious song in rural America, the chromaticism and Expressionism of Arnold Schoenberg and his followers, and the tone colors of the music of Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu.DurationsSonata Hymnica No. 1 --- 15 minutes.Sonata Hymnica No. 2 --- 11 minutes. Sonata Hymnica No. 3 --- 9 minutes. About the Composer Composer, musicologist, and pianist James Siddons studied composition with Dika Newlin, a protégé of Arnold Schoenberg, and electronic music with Merrill Ellis, founder of the electronic music program at the University of North Texas, where he also earned a PhD in musicology. After a year at the University of London, where he studied musical analysis at King’s College and electronic music at Goldsmiths’ College, Siddons spent two years in Japan as a research scholar at Tokyo University of Arts, participating in the Ethnomusicology Seminar of Fumio Koizumi. Siddons has also studied theology and liturgy at the Duke University Divinity School. In addition to books and articles on contemporary music and music in Japan, Siddons was written compositions in many genres.

Guitar - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1342819 Composed by John W. Fisher. Christian,Instructional,March,Religious,Sacred. Chords/Lyrics. 3 pages. John Fisher #928327. Published by John Fisher (A0.1342819). JESUS WAS WALKING is a sermon song based on the sermon On the Way to Jerusalem preached by Dr. Paul de Jong at First Presbyterian Church, Fort Myers Florida, on December 3, 2023. It is an arrangement of the children's song, Walking With Jesus which I first learned in French in Haiti in 1965. I have seen it with cartoons on the internet in Portugese, Spanish and Japanese. My lyrics are anything but childlike. They portray what Mark 10:32-52 tells of the march of Jesus to Jerusalem, where he lays out to the tone deaf disciples that he will be delivered to the priests, and Gentiles, killed, but on the third day he would arise from the dead. And having heard this, James and John ignore his message and want to know who will sit on his right and left when his kingdom comes. He has to correct them that his kingdom was not like that of the Gentiles. The other ten disciples rebuke James and John, but Jesus teaches them that to be great, one must be a servant to all. Finally, a blind man comes forward asking a favor, but unlike James and John, he only asks in humility that he might see. His faith heals him and the march goes on.Guitar chords are provided and an autoharp would be appropriate.

Small Ensemble Harp,Piano,Violin,Voice - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.889722 Composed by William Hawley. Contemporary. Score and parts. 220 pages. William Hawley #4574359. Published by William Hawley (A0.889722). This is Volume I of the collected songs of William Hawley, from the earliest preserved song (the 1976 An Object, on an Ezra Pound poem) to The Bridge of Sighs (Lord Byron), 1998. The collection comprises 23 works: 21 for voice and piano, one set for voice and harp, and one set for voice, piano, and violin. The songs were composed variously for unspecified voice, soprano, mezzo-soprano, alto, or baritone. All of the poetry was set in the original languages (English, German, Italian, Greek, and Japanese). Several of these works remain in manuscript, others have been computer-engraved by the composer in one fully bookmarked PDF file of 220 pages with Table of Contents in hypertext. The audio clip is from a private recording of the Four Keats Songs (Joyce Andrews, Soprano, Neal Goren, Piano, New York, 1985), the score of which is also available separately at SMP Press.

Piano Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.882116 Composed by Samuel Wellman. Arranged by Samuel Wellman. Contemporary,Folk,World. Score. 5 pages. Samuel Wellman #3380881. Published by Samuel Wellman (A0.882116). My arrangement is a lush setting of the tune in a chromatic-romantic style. The short introduction mimics a player improvising on a harp-like instrument; this passage returns to close the piece. There are five verses in unrelated minor keys; after verse three there is a rather dissonant interlude which temporarily upsets the prevailing calm. One of the charms of this Japanese tune is its unusual phrase structure contained in 14 bars.

Small Ensemble Bass Marimba,Harp,Ocarina - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.636857 Composed by Oskar Sutherland. Contemporary,Multicultural,Video Game,World. Score and parts. 9 pages. Oskar Sutherland #245935. Published by Oskar Sutherland (A0.636857). 'Skyward' is a short piece inspired by the works of the famous Japanese composer and Musical Director Koji Kondo, and other composers of 'The Legend of Zelda' Video Game Series. This influence can be seen on many levels within the piece, namely the unusual choice of arrangement for Ocarina, Harp and Marimba: three instruments used extensively throughout the modern 'Legend of Zelda' Video Games, which give the Musical Soundtrack of the Series a distinct and unique timbre.
