High Voice,Vocal Solo - Level 3 - SKU: A0.955849 Composed by Giovanni Girolamo Kapsperger. Arranged by Scott S. Stewart. Baroque,Concert,Instructional,Standards. 7 pages. Scott S. Stewart #6448577. Published by Scott S. Stewart (A0.955849). The original secular lute song, Gia risi, was composed in Italian, with a basso continuo accompaniment. It was first published in 1619 in Libro terzo di villanelle, No.2. This modern arrangement is for soprano or tenor voice and keyboard and hopes to awaken a new appreciation of Kapsperger’s genius. A variety to the accompaniment, and embellishment to the vocal line for each verse of this strophic composition, provides a practical solution for modern recital hall performance. This piece is a fine introduction to the early Baroque style. Performance time: 3:58+

High Voice,Vocal Solo - Level 5 - SKU: A0.1074551 By Daniel Carter. By William Walker. Arranged by Daniel Carter. Classical,Folk,Praise & Worship,Sacred,Spiritual. 9 pages. Daniel Carter #678826. Published by Daniel Carter (A0.1074551). John Newton penned the words to “Amazing Grace†around 1764 after he survived a near-death experience on a slave-trading ship that nearly capsized, after which he became a priest. His words were set to music by William Walker who composed the hymn tune NEW BRITAIN, first published in “Southern Harmony in 1847. The hymn is extremely influential in religious and folk music, crossing over successfully into secular music. One of the most recognizable and beloved songs in history, Daniel Carter’s setting has a traditional southern folk song feel. Arranged for solo voice, fiddle obbligato, and piano and is suitable for worship, devotionals, concert settings, and music recitals. The fiddle part is included on the last page of the score. Available for both high-range and medium-range vocal solo, fiddle, and piano at danielcartermusic.com.

High Voice,Vocal Solo - Level 3 - SKU: A0.1115658 Composed by George Beverly Shea and Rhea F. Miller. Arranged by David Neff. 20th Century,Christian,Praise & Worship,Religious,Sacred. 6 pages. David Neff #717430. Published by David Neff (A0.1115658). Here’s a fresh high-voice arrangement of the classic gospel song written by bass-baritone George Beverly Shea. It is appropriate for any setting where sacred music is welcomed. This arrangement is also available on this site for medium voice. Shea wrote the tune for “I’d Rather Have Jesus†at age 23. He’d been offered a well-paying job as a singer on NBC’s Your Hit Parade, and he was struggling with whether to choose a secular singing career or to stick with singing in churches and on Christian radio. He turned down the job offer, stuck with sacred music, and eventually took a role as the main vocalist with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Crusades. “I’d Rather Have Jesus†became his signature tune. It was featured on his first release from RCA records, and because of his role with Billy Graham, it is thought that he sang live before more people than anyone else in history.

High voice and piano - Medium - SKU: MQ.8318-4E Composed by Gwyneth W. Walker. Secular, 21st century. 9 pages. E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital #8318-4E. Published by E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.8318-4E). The five letters which provide the lyrics for the songs (adapted by the composer) were selected for their range of topics and sentiments. Some portray the wildlife in the mountains (“Glacier Birds...â€). Others extol the beauty of the Sierra (“Mountain Glory,†“Yosemite Fallsâ€). One expresses the whimsical/temperamental personality of the author (“Ice!â€). And the final letter (“Sequoiaâ€) speaks reverently of the great trees, in a language both naturalistic and sacred. They are the “greatest light in the woods, the greatest light in the world.†The musical settings, especially in the piano accompaniment, are quite programmatic. Glacier birds scamper up and down the keyboard in tone clusters. “Icy†glissandi float off. The great trees take root in large, block chords, and waterfalls cascade down in scales.There is personality in the letters. The bond between John Muir and Mrs. Carr (whom he addresses formally) is one of great kinship- a blending of the souls, a “spiritual romance.†As he marvels at the beauty of the wilderness, he writes ardently, “I wish that you could see this...†When he learns that Mrs. Carr, a botanist (whose plants suffer from the frost), dislikes ice, he chides her, and creates a “mock argument†over the value of glacial ice.The songs begin with an ascent into the mountains. They close with the return to the coast, to the magnificent Sequoia trees, where John Muir camps for the night, in the company of a squirrel. Charmingly, he writes “therefore, my Carr, goodnight.â€.

High voice and piano - Moderately Difficult - SKU: MQ.8454-2E Composed by David Conte. Secular, 21st century. Instrument part. 6 pages. E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital #8454-2E. Published by E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.8454-2E). English.American Death Ballads was composed especially for tenor Brian Thorsett. We have been frequent collaborators since 2011, when he premiered the complete set of my Three Settings of W. B. Yeats for string quartet and tenor. At his urging, I transcribed and published my Three Poems of Christina Rossetti (originally for medium voice) for high voice, which he premiered at the San Francisco Conservatory in 2014. American Death Ballads was premiered by him at the San Francisco Conservatory, November 1, 2015, with pianist John Churchwell, and at the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS) Conference in Chicago, July 10, 2016, with pianist Warren Jones.The choice of texts for my American Death Ballads was inspired partly by Copland’s Old American Songs, which I deeply admire, but more by my dear friend and colleague the late Conrad Susa’s Two Murder Ballads. The ingenuity of Susa’s accompaniments for his ballads in imagining anew the original source material owes a great deal to Copland’s accompaniment for his songs. Though the content of my songs is completely original and not based on preexisting melodies, I have tried to expand on this further, as the texts are much longer, and go through many different moods and characters. The four texts I chose include stories about murder, death, and dying. Though two of the texts were written in England, they traveled to the colonies almost immediately. The subjects of the texts had spent time in America, and their stories were well known to Americans.Wicked Polly is a cautionary tale. Polly has lived a dissolute and immoral life, saying, 'I'll turn to God when I grow old.' Suddenly taken ill, she realizes that it is too late to repent. She dies in agony and is presumably sent to hell; young people are advised to heed. My musical setting is stately and preacherly in character for the narrator; for Polly it becomes pleading and remorseful. The Unquiet Grave was brought to the attention of Alan Lomax, the great American field collector of folk music, by English folk singer Shirley Collins. The text is taken from an English folk song dating from 1400. In The Unquiet Grave, a young man mourns his dead lover too fervently and prevents her from obtaining peace. The dead woman complains that his weeping is keeping her from peaceful rest. He begs a kiss; she tells him it would kill him. When he persists, wanting to join her in death, she explains that once they were both dead their hearts would simply decay, and that he should enjoy life while he has it. My setting is in a flowing Andante with a rocking accompaniment. Three voices are delineated here: the narrator, the mournful lover, and the dead lover speaking from the grave. The Dying Californian first appeared in the New England Diadem in 1854. Its lyrics are based on a letter from a New Englander’s sailor to his brother who is dying at sea while on the way to California to seek his fortune in the California gold fields. He implores his brother to impart his message to his father, mother, wife, and children. My setting opens with the singer alone in a moderate dirge tempo, then, joined by the piano, moves through many tonalities and moods before ending with supreme confidence as the speaker 'gained a port called Heaven/Where the gold will never rust.'Captain Kidd was a Scottish sailor who was tried and executed for piracy and murder in 1701. The American connection to this ballad is that Kidd escaped to America and for a time lived in New York and Boston, though he was a wanted criminal by the British authorities and was extradited to Britain, where he was hung at 'Executioner’s Dock.' The lyric was printed in Britain in 1701, traveling to the colonies almost immediately. Though the didactic tone of the text is similar to Wicked Polly, it expresses no regret until the final lines: 'Take warning now by me, and shun bad company, / Lest you come to hell with me, for I must die.' My setting is fast and spirited, expressing the confidence of a man who lived life as he wanted. -David Conte.
