Violin and piano - difficult SKU: HL.49017922 Composed by John Casken. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. String. Score and parts. Composed 2006. 40 pages. Duration 16'. Schott Music #ED13084. Published by Schott Music (HL.49017922). ISBN 9790220127397. UPC: 884088567620. 9.0x12.0x0.125 inches. These six short pieces might more readily be described as fantasies, each with its own sound-world but linked by shared material. The mood of each of these short movements is guided by an imaginary landscape, one shadowed by the blackened tree, a far-away song, shadows past, a quickening moon, forgotten voices, and by the harrowed land. The title of the last movement plays on the word harrow, something that is used to break up the soil, but also bringing with it suggestions of a land both pained and wounded. $27.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 24 hours - In Stock | | |

The motor-driven accompaniment present throughout the piece is inspired by the minimalist works of Steve Reich and Philip Glass, while the melodic and harmonic content reflect the polychordal harmony of composers like Roy Harris, William Schuman, and Vincent Persichetti. Composer George Sweet has written a new tour de force for the more advanced string orchestra. Shadow Run is inspired by the idea of a dangerous secret mission under the cover of night . The motor driven accompaniment present throughout the piece is inspired by the minimalist works of Steve Reich and Philip Glass, while the melodic and harmonic content reflect the polychordal harmony of composers like Roy Harris, William Schuman, and Vincent Persichetti . The piece begins with a brief motor introduction, which sets the mood for what is to follow . Make sure all elements of the motor are equal in volume and articulation so that the voices create a blended whole . The A-theme is stated in a legato fashion by the upper voices at m . 9 . This should be played as legato as possible to contrast with the motor in the lower voices . The voices unite for an aggressive B-section at m . 25 . The A-section returns at m . 33; however, the melodic material has mutated and features variations on a melodic fragment found in the first violin back in m . 24 . After a return of the B-material, the piece enters a subdued C-section at m . 57, in which the motor and melodic roles are reversed . Following a transitional section in which the motor returns, both A- and B-sections are repeated one final time . At m . 115, a dark and mysterious coda appears and drives the piece to a dramatic conclusion . About Carl Fischer Concert String Orchestra Series This series of pieces (Grade 3 and higher) is designed for advancing ensembles. The pieces in this series are characterized by: - Expanded use of rhythms, ranges and keys but technical demands are still carefully considered

Solo Piano SKU: CN.19880 Composed by Luigi Zaninelli. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.19880). As a young composition student at the Curtis Institute of Music, my teacher, Gian Carlo Menotti, suggested that I write some music for children. He believed that, when writing for children, a composer would soon discover what was true and honest and what was shallow artifice. I was soon to discover that he was right. One of my first published works was a children's ballet entitled The Enchanted Lake. In 1966, I published my first series of piano pieces for children, A Lexicon of Beasties. They were dedicated to my daughters. I now have a 12-year-old son. It seemed fitting that I now write some pieces for him. He plays and enjoys these. It is my hope that they will give pleasure to many others.
(1) SHADOW RIDGE RAG - A spirited dance with infectious syncopation and some charming harmonic surprises. (2) THE RIVER - An elegant new setting of a lovely English folk song.

Carl Fischer Music #YAS215F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS215F). ISBN 9781491160756. UPC: 680160919352. Beethoven's 5th Symphony is one of the best-known musical compositions of the Classical period. Its opening measures are instantly recognizable, even to the non-musician. This arrangement takes a little different approach to this passionate masterpiece. Instead of the bold, dynamic energy of the original score, this arrangement features a softer, delicate interpretation, creating a sense of loneliness, loss, and heartbreak in a gentle setting. While the tempo of this piece is notated as Largo, rubato, the arranger encourages conductors to use rubato liberally for ultimate dramatic effect. Suggested measures for additional ritardando include the end of measure 9 and measures 13 through 15. Holding back the tempo momentarily at the discretion of the director can convey the fullest range of expression and emotion.

Composed 2014. 24+12+12+12+8 pages. Duration 14 minutes. Theodore Presser Company #114-41713. Published by Theodore Presser Company (PR.114417130). ISBN 9781491110409. UPC: 680160626687. 9x12 inches. A recipient of the New Music USA 2013 Live Music For Dance Award commissioning grant, Not Alone is inspired by the ancient Chinese poet Li Bai's poem Drinking Alone under the Moon with the Shadow. The premiere was given on April 26, 2014 by the PRISM Quartet with the Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company, which commissioned the work to celebrate its 25th Anniversary NYC Season. From the Program Note by Matthew Levy (The PRISM Quartet), Not Alone (2014) is an interdisciplinary work...but it stands alone in a chamber music setting. The work spans a stunning range of textures, from introspective solos for each of the four saxophones to majestic hyper-active gestures. The PRISM Quartet recorded Not Alone for a 2017 release on XAS Records titled Paradigm Lost. But we're excited for a wider community of saxophonists to embrace the work, and share it with their own audiences. Not Alone is published together with Happy Birthday to PRISM, a brief miniature that Chen Yi wrote for the quartet's 20th anniversary celebration in 2004. For advanced performers._________________________Text from the scanned back cover:NOT ALONE for Saxophone QuartetHAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PRISM for Saxophone QuartetNot Alone is a 14-minute saxophone quartet and dance score inspired by the ancient Chinese poet Li Bai’s “Drinking Alone under the Moon with the Shadow.†The expansively-textured sax quartet matches the exploratory and dramatic movements and gestures in the dance. NOT ALONE was commissioned by the Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company which premiered the work in collaboration with the PRISM Quartet. Also included in this publication is Chen Yi’s fascinating take on “Happy Birthday to You,†composed in celebration of Prism’s 25th anniversary season. A recipient of the New Music USA 2013 Live Music For Dance Award commissioning grant, Not Alone is inspiredby the ancient Chinese poet Li Bai’s poem “Drinking Alone under the Moon with the Shadow.†The premierewas given on April 26, 2014 by the PRISM Quartet with the Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company, which commissioned thework to celebrate its 25th Anniversary NYC Season. Program Note by composer Chen YiThe original inspiration for this work for both the choreographer and the composer came from the Tang Dynasty poem - Alone Under the Moon by Li Bai. The poem describes the poet being alone in a garden. The moon and his shadow became his companions that night. The choreographer brings this idea to modern life in an urban setting. She created a series of “mindscapes†which are the result of the exploration of the different mental and physical states of being alone.Through self-examination, the choreographer raises the question: are we ever really alone? Our physical being may be standing by itself, but what about our introspective self? When we are still, we let our thoughts pass by like flowing water. If we could engage with our shadows, what would it be like?Program Note by Matthew Levy, The PRISM QuartetThe PRISM Quartet has commissioned a great many composers since our founding days in 1984. Chen Yi is among ahandful of our very favorites, and one to whom we’ve returned time and time again. Her music is powerful, expansive,intimate, and draws connections between Eastern and Western, ancient and modern traditions in a voice all her own.Chen Yi has written or adapted four works for the PRISM Quartet. She penned a wonderful miniature called HappyBirth day to PRISM to celebrate the ensemble’s 20th anniversary back in 2004 (Dedication, Innova Recordings).We subsequently commissioned her to compose Septet (2008) for Erhu, Pipa, Percussion, and Saxophone Quartet(2008), premiered and recorded with the New York ensemble Music From China (Antiphony, Innova Recordings 2010).In 2015, the PRISM Quartet performed and recorded (XAS Records) a new version of her saxophone quartet concerto,BA YIN, with the University of Missouri-Kansas City Wind Ensemble under the baton of Steven Davis (originally writtenfor the Rascher Quartet and scored for saxophones and string orchestra.).Finally, Not Alone (2014) is an interdisciplinary work written for the Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company with the PRISMQuartet, but it stands alone in a chamber music setting. The work spans a stunning range of textures, from introspectivesolos for each of the four saxophones to majestic hyper-active gestures. The PRISM Quartet recorded Not Alonefor a 2017 release on XAS Records titled Paradigm Lost. But we’re excited for a wider community of saxophonists toembrace the work, and share it with their own audiences.In his liner notes for the recording, WNYC’s John Schaefer writes: “As with much of her music, Chen employs percussiveeffects and glissandi; in Chinese music these are not considered “extended techniques†or special effects, but animportant part of the performer’s arsenal. Here, they help create the twilit mood of the opening moments. The piecesoon becomes more dramatic, suggesting the arrival of the drinker’s companions (real or imagined) and his or herincreasingly garrulous outbursts. Passages of consonance and discord can easily be heard as companionable singingand bouts of drunken argument. The piece bustles along on a kind of restless energy, until, finally, that restlessnesssubsides, giving way to a gently humorous ending where a short falling phrase signals the drinker falling asleep.â€. $39.99 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

The editions from 1610 and 1641 both include music for the Mass and Vespers, but each of these collections was composed under much different circumstances during Monteverdi's lifetime. If the works of 1610 are a bold combination of traditional compositional techniques and avant garde music, which were intended by this weary Court Composer at Mantua as an application portfolio for a new job, the 1641 collection is the only church music by the mature Monteverdi which was published after almost thirty years in his position as Music Director of St. Mark's Cathedral: the latter, a kind of best of collection from his many years of experience as a church musician. In Venice the composer had not only a fabulous, but a large ensemble at his disposal (finally, about 35 singers, alone)! The big effect in this music is the combination of soloistic and weighty tutti sections, it makes the music, with its clearly defined sections and, for the most part homophonic choral passages more easily performable than the Vespers for today's choirs. The new edition, comprised initially of three volumes, also includes those works from the Selva Morale (a Mass and two Magnificats) which have already been published by Carus, as well as all further liturgical compositions for use in the church. The present volume, Salmi I, contains each of the first of the multiple settings of the psalms, as well as the Credidi. The edition is based on the methods employed in the much acclaimed Carus edition of the Vespers: * It contains a detailed foreword with suggestions for notation, scoring and for the liturgical use of individual compositions. * For the present edition four of the five surviving printed copies, as well as contemporary manuscript were consulted. Facsimiles illustrate special characteristics of the edtion of 1641. A Critical Report makes clear all of the editorial decisions made in the edition. * All of the pieces are printed untransposed and using the original note values. * All of the pieces are available in single editions with complete performance material. * Vocal scores of all works with obbligato instruments facilitate rehearsal. * Instrumental parts for collaparte accompaniment of tutti-sections (including text underlay). $125.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 2 to 3 weeks | | |
