4 Saxophones SATBar/AATBar SKU: AP.1-ADV7622 Folksong from the Hebrides (for SATBar/AATBar Saxophone Quartet). Arranged by Frank Reinshagen. Quartet; Solo Small Ensembles; Woodwind - Saxophone Quartet. Advance Music. Folk; Traditional. Score and Part(s). Advance Music #01-ADV7622. Published by Advance Music (AP.1-ADV7622). UPC: 805095076226. English. Traditional. Writing these arrangements, Frank Reinshagen has created little masterpieces, which broaden the rhythmical and harmonic context of the original tunes in an interesting manner without detracting from their archaic and melancholic character. These original tunes have been borrowed from the Irish, Scottish, and Gaelic musical tradition. These through-composed arrangements are rather easy to perform from the rhythmical and technical point of view, yet they are quite demanding in respect of the key they are written in, their intonation and, especially, their interpretation. Their different instrumentations are fully compatible with each other and, due to their overall structure, they are also suitable to be played with multi-scored parts. The interpretation of 'S mo lamh air a stiuir---the song of a helmsman living on the Isle of Skye---should be interpreted with the musicians paying careful attention to its dynamics and phrasing, which reflect the up-and-down motion of the stormy Artic Ocean. For this arrangement the key D minor---which is one whole tone lower than the original---has been chosen to make sure that the piece is playable, especially for a clarinet quartet. $19.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Writing these arrangements, Frank Reinshagen has created little masterpieces, which broaden the rhythmical and harmonic context of the original tunes in an interesting manner without detracting from their archaic and melancholic character. These original tunes have been borrowed from the Irish, Scottish, and Gaelic musical tradition.

The original of The Sons of Liberty is of a more recent date and goes back to the time when the King of England forced the Irish farmers' sons to go to war in America against their own fellow countrymen who were striving for freedom there. The arrangement conveys the impression of a vigorous forward motion created by a recurring and changing riff. Although it is written in a somewhat more difficult key (E minor), it is not too exacting from the technical point of view. $19.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Annotation on Aignish on the Machair. The arrangement of Aignish on the Machair illustrates, above all, the melancholic character inherent in the harmonies of the original tune. A short rubato passage is followed by several variations over the flowing melody in 3/4- time. The short triplet passages embedded in these variations are quite demanding from the technical point of view; considering the key they are written in, however, these passages are not too difficult to play. $19.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

4 Saxophones SATBar SKU: AP.1-ADV7425 For SATBar Saxophone Quartet. Arranged by Bill Perconti. Quartet; Solo Small Ensembles; Woodwind - Saxophone Quartet. Advance Music: Holiday Celebration Series. Christmas; Sacred; Traditional; Winter. Score and Part(s). Advance Music #01-ADV7425. Published by Advance Music (AP.1-ADV7425). ISBN 9783892215790. UPC: 805095074253. English. Traditional. Patapan is a French carol attributed to Bernard de la Monnoye who lived from 1641--1728. The title refers to the beating of a drum, and the lyrics also mention other instruments (pipes, fife, and flute). As with many Christmas tunes, Patapan reflects the joyous union of Christmas music with dance, as the lyrics express, when you play your fife and drum, how can anyone be glum? The melody is complimented in this arrangement by the use of a lyrical folk song also used by Tchaikovsky in his 1812 Overture.
This arrangement for saxophone quartet, rather than favoring a soprano solo with accompaniment, strives to include all of the players by distributing the melodic material. In addition, all dynamics and articulations should be taken as suggestions only, as performers are encouraged to make their own interpretations. Arranged for saxophone quartet (SATBar). $18.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |
