UPC: 038081488448. English. Traditional Spiritual.

Adapted from Jay's popular American Folk Songs for Solo Singers, this remarkable new choral arrangement works beautifully. The languid minor-key melody is passed from soloist to choir and part to part, often accompanied by mournful background vocals. Not difficult to perform, but appropriately weighty.

The vibrant vocables of this extraordinary original have no literal meaning, but simply bubble with joy. A rhythmic vocal stack opening introduces three independent voice parts before unfolding into a complete rondo that grows to an action-packed ending. Pair this impressive follow-up with Greg's original Vox; both can be performed a cappella or with optional piano.

She's Madonna was a 2007 hit single for world pop mega-star Robbie Williams. This up-beat single has a 1980's electro/pop feel due to it being a colaboration with The Pet Shop Boys. A classic song from one of today's biggest names in pop music.

She’s Madonna is de derde single van het album Rudebox van de wereldberoemde Britse popzanger Robbie Williams. Hij schreef het nummer samen met Chris Lowe en Neil Tennant, de Pet Shop Boys, en dat is goed te horen aande sound. De opvallende titel verwijst naar het gerucht dat Guy Ritchie - toen hij zijn vriendin verliet voor superster Madonna - zei: “I love you baby, but face it, she’s Madonna.” Peter Kleine Schaars maakte een vakkundig arrangementvan deze herkenbare hit.

Mit She’s Madonna, einer Hommage an die große Popdiva Madonna, die Williams zusammen mit den Pet Shop Boys aufnahm, gelang es dem Briten, an seine größten Hits wie Angel oder She’s the One anknüpfen. Peter Kleine Schaars bearbeitete den schönen, langsamen Song für Fanfareorchester.

In ,,Beds and Brackets gibt es ein Stuck im Stuck: Statement zu einem Faustschlag Nonos. Kurz vor seinem Tod war ich mit Nono zusammen in einer Kompositionswettbewerbs-Jury. Wahrend dieser Tage schlug er manchmal mit der Faust schwere, massige Rhythmen elementarster Proportion auf den Tisch. Vierfaches Forte. Diese Befreiungsschlage hafteten die ganze Zeit wahrend der Arbeit an Statement in meinem Gedachtnis. Sie waren ganz aus dem Nahbereich des Machens und Wahrnehmens geboren. Solcher Nahbereich menschlicher Sinnenwelt ist auch musikalisches Ausfuhrungs- und Hormodell des ubrigen Stuckes. Die jeweiligen Tone werden aus der 88-tastigen Klaviatur aufgrund von Bewegungsentwurfen abgerufen, deren Streckenmasse und Geschwindigkeiten, multipliziert mit den jeweils zu bewegenden Organ(gewicht)en, Ton und Harmonik charakterisieren. Der horizontale, zeitliche Verlauf des Stuckes verwirrt zeitweise die Nahbereichswahrnehmung durch Wiederholung. In der Partitur zeigen numerierte Klammern das jeweilige Notentextfragment an, das an einer anderen Stelle in den musikalischen Verlauf eingeschoben werden soll, und zwar so, als wurde es zum ersten Mal erklingen. Es geht also nicht um psychisch-dynamische Weiterspinnung, sondern um eine live simulierte Wiederholung von Vergangenem, als ware es gar nicht vergangen. Derartige horizontale Bewegungsentwurfe betonen an Wiederholung eher das Fremde, Sprengende, nicht das Zusammenhangschaffende. Gegen Ende argumentiert der korperliche Nahbereich, schlagt um in ,,Umgebung: Lauft da nicht ein Radio, ein Fernseher, ein Kuhlschrank? Geht da nicht ein Wind draussen? Fahrt nicht ein Auto? Spielen da nicht Kinder? Tonbander sind nur eine schwache Simulation! Im Optimalfall sollen Fenster und Turen des Konzertsaales geoffnet und wieder geschlossen werden. (Nicolaus A.

The traditional Ubi Caritas text is uniquely set as an uptempo jazz waltz. Just one sentence in Latin plus a few English lyrics make it clear that this song is all about charity and love. As you've come to expect from this composer, the canon is a true skill-builder---with a modal melody that moves from unison to two and eventually three independent layers (using descant singers for 2-part choirs). Don't miss the jazzy flute obbligato available free online.
