With its simple, memorable melody and folk-song style, You Are My Sunshine is undoubtedly one of America?s most successful love songs of the 20th century. Its success in the 1940s massively boosted the popularity of the song?s original performers, Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell, so much so that it helped to springboard Davis? political career, culminating in his successful election as Governor of Louisiana in 1944. This arrangement for a quartet line-up is very playable and was arranged by Mike Sheppard. This piece effectively guarantees success at your next concert.

Solo and Chamber Works-Signs Games and Messages are series for solo instruments and small chamber ensembles. Each of the three notions refers to an essential factor in Kurtág's music. Signs ties in with the composer's period of study in Paris as a young man when he could not compose merely put graphic signs on the paper. (Additionally the word points to inspiration gained from the art of Klee and Michaux.) Games links with his nine-volume series for the piano with that title. Messages conveys the very personal content of these works in that these short pieces are actually diary notes and missives to musicians and friends important to Kurtág.The collection - like his earlierfive series for stringed instruments - does not form a coherent cycle. The pieces can be played individually or in various orders or among pieces from Signs Games and Messages written for other instruments.
