Looking for a piece to feature an advanced soloist with your young band? Look no further, because Dormez Vous? Not You! Is the perfect choice! The solo part can be performed by any instrument, and could be used to feature an advanced student, a former student, a fellow music teacher, or a local professional musician. It uses melodic material from Frère Jacques (Are You Sleeping?) along with original jazzy melodies and harmonies. The title very loosely translates to, Are you sleeping? Well, you won't be after you hear this amazing solo! First rate!

Celebrate the warmth and joy of family and community with Joyous Festival, by Jeanne Vultaggio, an original work for Hanukkah inspired by Klezmer style and depicting a lively celebration. Syncopated rhythms and repetition create a festive folk dance feel accessible to your developing musicians. A slower legato section, offering expressive opportunities, represents the sunset gathering to light the menorah's candles, with a gradually building ascending scale motif in the bells representing the lighting of one additional candle on each of the eight days of Hanukkah. (2:10).

Here's a memorable and humorous contrast for your winter concert. A gregarious student or staff member in the guise of âBeethoven returnedâ suddenly appears on your concert stage in this comedy skit for band. The music begins as an innocent Christmas medley, but by the time it's over, âBeethovenâ owns your band, and you, the director, are vanquished from the stage. Of course there are lots of laughs along the way.

As the title implies, this piece is written in a contemplative manner for beginning students. It is a good piece to demonstrate basic compositional techniques that the students will be able identify easily in the piece. It begins with a lush opening section with an elegant melody to work on musicianship. This is contrasted by the uptempo section of the piece based on the same basic musical material, but in a varied style and frolicking feel. A very satisfying piece for beginning wind players.Contemplation: the action to look thoughtfully at something for a long time.When composing music that will be used with younger students, I want to stimulate thoughtfulness in them. In this particular piece I want the students to be able to stretch their musicianship beyond their experience on their instruments to play in a contemplative manner. To me, this is the essence of musical playing in an emotional and thoughtful way. It is something that cannot be stressed enough, even in students that have just begun to play. As soon as possible, they should be asked to put themselves into the music and make it more than the notes and rhythms on the page.This piece is my attempt to provide very young students, who are just beginning their musical journey, with something they can reach technically, but have to stretch for musically. The amount of notes and rhythms is limited, but students should strive for beauty of tone, good phrasing and emotional involvement.After a short introduction, the heartfelt main theme begins at a lyrical and slow tempo. This is developed with the addition of a secondary theme, featuring the lower voices, before the piece leads to an Allegro section that is based on the same musical material with a difference in tempo and a variation in rhythm patterns. The piece can serve to show students that the same basic music can have an entirely different emotional connection with differences in tempo, rhythm and style, with the first section of the piece being sentimental and the faster section being more joyous in nature. As with all of my pieces for younger students, it is completely acceptable to me for you to adjust the tempo to fit the educational needs of your students.It has been my pleasure to have the opportunity to write this piece. I hope you and your students enjoy it and find it useful for your program.—Larry ClarkLakeland, FL 2018.
