The ancient
Egyptian empire began
around 3100 B.C. and
continued for over 3000
years until Alexander the
Great conquered the
country in 332 B.C. Over
the centuries, the
Egyptian empire grew and
flourished into a highly
developed society. They
invented hieroglyphics,
built towering pyramids
(including the Great
Pyramid of Giza, the
oldest of the Seven
Wonders of the World),
and the created many
household items we still
use today, including
toothbrushes, toothpaste,
eyeliner, black ink, and
the forerunner of
modern-day paper.
Included among their
achievements were a
series of highly
developed funerary
practices and beliefs in
the Afterlife. As the
average lifespan of an
Egyptian hovered around
30 years, living past the
death of oneAs physical
body was a legitimate
concern. Egyptians
believed that upon death,
their souls would
undertake a harrowing
journey through the
Netherworld. If they
survived the horrific
creatures and arduous
trials that awaited them,
then their souls would be
reunified with their
bodies (hence the need to
preserve the body through
mummification) and live
forever in a perfect
version of the life they
had lived in Egypt. To
achieve this, Egyptians
devised around 200
magical spells and
incantations to aid souls
on the path to the
Afterlife. These spells
are collectively called
The Book of the Dead.
Particular spells would
be chosen by the family
of the deceased and
inscribed on the tombAs
walls and scrolls of
papyrus, as well as on a
stone scarab placed over
the deceasedAs heart.
Subsequent collections of
spells and mortuary
texts, such as The Book
of Gates, assisted a soul
in navigating the twelve
stages of the
Netherworld. Not only did
these spells protect and
guide the soul on this
dangerous path, but they
also served as a
safeguard against any
unbecoming behavior an
Egyptian did while alive.
For instance, if a person
had robbed another while
alive, there was a spell
that would prevent the
soulAs heart from
revealing the truth when
in the Hall of Judgment.
Rites for the Afterlife
follows the path of a
soul to the Afterlife. In
Inscriptions from the
Book of the Dead
(movement 1), the soul
leaves the body and
begins the journey,
protected by spells and
incantations written on
the tombAs walls. In
Passage though the
Netherworld (movement 2),
the soul is now on a
funerary barque, being
towed through the
Netherworld by four of
the regionAs inhabitants.
We hear the soul slowly
chanting incantations as
the barque encounters
demons, serpents,
crocodiles, lakes of
fire, and other terrors.
The soul arrives at The
Hall of Judgment in
movement 3. Standing
before forty-two divine
judges, the soul
addresses each by name
and gives a A!negative
confessionA(r) connected
to each judge (i.e. A!I
did not rob,A(r) A!I did
not do violence,A(r) and
so on). Afterwards, the
soulAs heart is put on a
scale to be weighed
against a feather of
MaAat, the goddess of
truth. If the heart
weighs more than the
feather, it will be eaten
by Ammut, a hideous
creature that lies in
wait below the scale, and
the soul will die a
second and permanent
death (this was the worst
fear of the Egyptians).
But if the heart is in
balance with the feather,
the soul proceeds onward.
The final stage of the
journey is the arrival at
The Field of Reeds
(movement 4), which is a
perfect mirror image of
the soulAs life in
ancient Egypt. The soul
reunites with deceased
family members, makes
sacrifices to the
Egyptian gods and
goddess, harvests crops
from plentiful fields of
wheat under a brilliant
blue sky, and lives
forever next to the
abundant and nourishing
waters of the Nile. Rites
for the Afterlife was
commissioned by the
Barlow Endowment on
behalf of the Akropolis

This Negro
Spiritual was made
popular by the Golden
Gate Quartet in the
1930s. Willie T. Johnson,
the lead singer of the
group, is the father of
Kevin P. Johnson the
arranger of this version.
The composer, like his
father, uses rhythm in
exciting new ways to
deliver Negro Spirituals
to contemporary
audiences. The text of
this spiritual has been
interpreted in many
different ways over the
years. Here's a popular
interpretation of the
text. One for the little
bitty baby born, born,
born in Bethlehem: This
refers to the infant
Jesus. Two for Paul and
Silas: This verse honors
Paul and Silas who went
on many missionary
journeys to spread the
teachings of Christ.
Three for the Hebrew
children: The three
Hebrew children could be
Shadrach, Meshach and
Abednego. Four for the
four that stood at the
door: Many people
interpret the four to be
the four writers of the
Gospel books - Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John,
though this does not
explain the part about
standing at the door.
Five for the gospel
preachers: The five are
Matthew, Mark, Luke, John
and Peter. Paul is
already mentioned above,
in line two. Six for the
six that never got fixed:
Could this mean the
sinners who never change
their ways? Seven for the
seven that went up to
heaven: The seven in
heaven could be the seven
stars in Ursa Major or
the sevenfold spirit of
God or the seven early
Christian churches or the
seven stars in the right
hand of Christ mentioned
in the Revelation. Eight
for the eight that stood
at the gate: This could
refer to the eight people
who entered Noah's ark
(Noah, his wife, their
three sons and their
wives). Nine for the nine
that dressed so fine:
This could refer to the
nine orders of Angels in
heaven. Ten for the ten
commandments: This refers
to the ten commandments
given to Moses.
Performance notes: Swing

drums should be played
freely with flexible

can be sung down an
octave and can be changed

the soloist. Do not clap
louder than you sing If

Bartók's
Mikrokosmos has been one
of the milestones in
pedagogical piano
repertoire for 80 years -
and yet it is also far
more than a classical
piano primer. These 153
piano pieces, organized
in ascending order of
difficulty, engage not
only with technical
aspects of piano playing
but also with the
fundamentals of
composition - from
Imitation and Inversion,
Ostinato, and Free
Variations, concerning
compositional technique,
to mood pieces and pieces
with programmatic ideas
such as Notturno,
Boating, From the Diary
of a Fly, or the famous
Six Dances in Bulgarian
Rhythm. Mikrokosmos first
appeared in 1940 in six
volumes. Based on volume
40 of the Bartók
CompleteEdition published
in 2020(Z. 15040), the
present Urtext edition
offers the series
gathered in three
volumes. This edition
includes Bartók's
preface, exercises, and
notes written for the
first edition.
Furthermore, it also
features a preface and
comments by the editor,
which not only discuss
the genesis and the
compositional sources but
also provide performers,
teachers and pupils
alike, with authentic and
detailed information
about Bartók's
notation and the specific
performing problems of
Mikrokosmos.
