Tone Study for the Lifelong Flutist grew out of Leonard E. Lopatin\'s experiences over a nearly fifty-year career, building on what he found useful from standard pedagogy books and coaching he received in high school, the Manhattan School of Music, and the Juilliard School. Lopatin, best known as the innovative designer of the SquareONE family of flutes, concentrated on making his daily practice time as effective as possible for maintaining the skills that first earned him a seat in the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra. What would be the point of crafting the kind of flutes he wanted to play if he neglected his professional flute playing skills? Divided into 48 large sections, each with twelve sub-sections, these tonal exercises are designed to facilitate the practice of moving smoothly from each note to every other note in the flute\'s range while building (or maintaining) the endurance needed to play for an extended period of time. These exercises are designed to continually challenge players in their lifelong efforts to advance their playing abilities. Flute players will undoubtedly find Tone Study for the Lifelong Flutist a must-have for their pedagogical library. Indeed, players of all woodwind and brass instruments will find that the patterns which fall into their range are great for building the strength and flexibility needed for mastery.

A popular request for string players ever since the Duomo String Quartet cover featured on the Bridgerton soundtrack.

An accurate and challenging rendition of the popular waltz from Studio Ghibli's movie "Howl's Moving Castle". Lots of fun for all players, and many tempo changes to coordinate. 5 minutes.

This collection contains 10 familiar Christmas carols arranged for a one octave, 13-note chromatic scale Handbell choir with Piano accompaniment. For each song, the Piano provides an introduction then the Handbells play the melody and occasional 2-part harmony. Each song also includes an optional repeat and second ending in case a longer song is desired.

For each song, there is a combined score with both instruments (Handbells and Piano) on a grand staff plus two separate scores for the Handbells (one in standard format with black and white notes and the second with color-coded notes). A color-coded note chart is also provided for each song which shows the Handbell notes used as well as the number of times each note is played. The note distribution is helpful when assigning notes to ringers. You may want to assign fewer notes to beginners or evenly distribute the bells between all ringers.

The color-coded scores are enlarged so the colors are easier to distinguish and all sharps and flats are displayed (shown in the key of C) as reminders for beginning ringers. Also, only filled noteheads (quarter and eighth notes) are used so the notes are full color and easier to see (this does not indicate the bells need to be silenced immediately before the next beat).

As noted above, one of the Handbell scores for each song is color-coded for easier note reading for beginning ringers. These separate color-coded scores use the ?Chroma-Notes? Colored Music System.? If you have a set of Handbells with a different color scheme, ?Chroma-Notes Stick Ons? can be purchased and applied so the Handbells match this color scheme.

The number of ringers needed will vary depending on the skill level of the participants. For more advanced players, each person could be assigned two or three notes. For beginners, it is best to assign one or two notes to each person. Note assignment suggestions are included for each song and range from 4 to 8 ringers.

These familiar Christmas carols are perfect for small groups and especially beginning ringers. Most songs can be performed with as few as 5 people (4 ringers and 1 piano player). The Piano accompaniment is written for an intermediate player.

Permission is granted to make up to 10 copies of each score. For more than 10 copies, please purchase additional sets.

Each song is also available separately with accompanying preview pages and audio samples. For each song, a piano accompaniment and/or rehearsal track (MP3 format) is available as a separate purchase.

Angels We Have Heard on High
Bring a Torch, Jeannette, Isabella
Ding Dong! Merrily on High

Most trumpet players blow downward a bit too much. as a consequence, the pressure point lies on the lower lip. The result: .a thick, dull tone without treble and smoothness. The present technical exercises help to shift the pressure point to the upper lip. Thus, a much better treble, a finer tone and generally a better embouchure is gradually achieved. This also helps to keep the lung more open when blowing and to develop better lung volume and strength. Not least, it helps to avoid postural impairment, e.g. damaged discs or atrophied lungs.
Contains all-important information on trumpet techniques, a 'check-up' for advanced players and professional trumpet players.

Originally inspired by a spiritual, "Stand By Me" was written and recorded in 1961 by famed RandB singer-songwriter Ben E. King. The catchy, soulful tune immediately went to #1 on the RandB charts, and ended up becoming a Top Ten on the Billboard charts twice -- once for its original release, and again in 1986 when it was used as the theme song for a movie of the same name. This song has been deemed "culturally and historically significant" and it has remained one of the most beloved songs in history for decades, so you can't go wrong having this one in your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for string quartet maintains the fun groove, catchy melody, and joyful feel of the original, while adding in a number of beautiful harmonic and countermelodic layers that put this chart above and beyond the rest! Rated intermediate -- there are some fun syncopated rhythms throughout, but none of the parts go above 2nd position, and this will be playable for students and easily sightreadable for professionals.

This arrangement of ?Lover? by Taylor Swift can be performed as a String Quartet or a StringTrio, since the 2nd Violin part is optional. This song will have folks singing along andfeeling love in the air! Violin 1 and Viola trade the melody.

One thing that sets my arrangements apart from othersis that I fit all of my parts on 2sheets of music. This makes it sothe songs can fit into a binder, without the need for flipping pages!

Another great thing (formulti-instrumental arrangements) is that I include cue lines on each part, so that every player in the ensemble cansee one other person?s music at the same time. This is so amazingly useful and has saved countless performances in thepast. If someone skips a beat or missesa measure, you can now see where they are and reconnect! This also helps withsight-reading and keeping the group together in general.

This arrangement is meant for the intermediate piano player and is written in the original key of C. It includes the chord symbols and lyrics, and is written without repeats to accommodate the differences in notes and rhythms in each verse. The piano solos in the beginning and partway through have also been included.

Set of 6 exceptionally rare Flute Duets or Sonatas by unknown composers last published in 1760s. Suitable for teaching eager young players of a range of abilities and for recitals. Good introduction to styles, articulations and ornamentation in Baroque period. History of their discovery and performance guide provided. .

Everyone loves the Beatles - and since we all get Beatles requests so often, the more in your repertoire the better! This arrangement of "Eleanor Rigby" for string quartet is one of the first charts I ever wrote, so it has a special place in my heart. Taking a Phil Spector/"Wall of Sound" type approach, this is unlike any version of Eleanor Rigby you've ever heard before; it's packed with layers of exciting harmonies, countermelodies, and melodic tradeoffs between the parts. This arrangement is as fun to play as it is to listen to, and it will be great for pop concerts, weddings, receptions, cocktail parties, solo and ensemble contests, and any other event that needs some vintage rock and roll! Intermediate-level arrangement with a handful of tied notes and first-position double stops.
