Take it Easy! takes a look at life’s simple pleasures—lively, happy, and uncomplicated—a carefree, fresh-sounding composition. This piece is arranged in a variable instrumentation and is ideally suited to a youth orchestra.

Take It Easy! zorgt met drie thema’s voor een zorgeloze stemming. Het vrolijke eerste thema wordt smaakvol begeleid door de ritmesectie. Het tweede thema bestaat uit over elkaar gecomponeerde elementen, de melodieën wordenelegant vermengd. Het derde thema voert ons terug naar het feestelijke begin, de tussenmaten geven de gelaagde melodieën van het tweede thema weer. Als laatste komen de drie thema’s nog één keer aan bod.

Take it Easy! nimmt das Leben von seiner unkomplizierten Seite: schwungvoll, fröhlich, einfach - eine unbekümmerte, frische Komposition. Das Werk ist in seiner variablen Besetzung hervorragend geeignet für Jugendorchester.

Take It Easy! est une pièce en trois mouvements éclectiques et variés. La structure est harmonieuse et équilibrée. La musique évolue dans une atmosphère pleine de gaieté et d’une insouciante fraîcheur.

Non predenterla! è una composizione divisa in tre temi che, nonostante il loro ecletticismo e la loro diversit , si fondono insieme in modo armonioso e ben bilanciato. Non predenterla! è un pezzo con un’orchestrazione variabile.

The CD attached to the book will make your study even more enjoyable.

Choir (SATB choir)

SKU: AP.48899

Arranged by Mark Burrows. Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. Alfred Choral Designs. Folk; Peace/Brotherhood; Sacred; Traditional. Choral Octavo. 12 pages. Alfred Music #00-48899. Published by Alfred Music (AP.48899).

UPC: 038081562230. English. Traditional Shaker Song.

This creative arrangement of the well-known Shaker song passes the traditional tune to every voice part, using the others to support the buoyant melody. Scored for a mixed choir with congas, claves, and maracas, Mark's setting opens with a bit of suspense that soon breaks into a bright a cappella feature. Some rhythmic augmentation provides a warm center before returning to the vibrant feel. Fans will note a few additional lyrics that celebrate the gift to be loving, light, hopeful, and true. A final flourish fans out from the only unison measure into a resounding G major chord.

Composer 's Note:

In writing these pieces I had in mind certain difficulties which worry most organists from time to time; and in order to combine, as it were, business with pleasure I thought it worthwhile to concentrate upon one aspect of organ technique in each piece, even at the risk of making them a little more difficult than others in this series.

In Procession the main difficulty lies in the pedals Arabesque, on the other hand could hardly have had a simpler pedal part: its object is to exercise the left hand in producing a smooth, running semi-quaver pattern Pageant with its cross-rhythms, is designed to produce well-disciplinedhands and feet that can, when required, work in conflicting rhythms.

I have kept the registration schemes as simple and straightforward as possible.

This outstanding original from Larry Clark can be played any time of year! A vigorous theme moves through all the sections and violas combine with second violins for prominent solo passages. A section in minor adds to the drama as strong rhythmic chords give way to a subdued tremolo in the first violins, reminiscent of Vivaldi's Winter This music reaches a level of intensity your players and audience will love.
Out of the Winter is a musical depiction of the many moods of winter from its harsh storms to its simple beauty. The composition is based on a central main theme that is musically developed throughout the composition presented in and out of major and minor keys.The main theme begins right away without introduction and is set to depict the simple delicate beauty of a light falling snow. The theme is then developed in the minor key using simple contrapuntal techniques that give the composition a fresh sound for pieces at this grade level. The aggressive development of the piece is a musical description of a powerful winter storm. The tension of this section is built to a climax using simple divisi in the strongs and some poly-chordal harmonic techniques that give way to a final return of the main theme to complete the piece.Special care should be given to exaggerating the contrast between the two diverse sections of the piece. The main theme should be light and uplifting. The second section with the theme in minor should have an ominous presence, but still be reminiscent of the original light main theme. As with all of my compositions at this grade level, adjust the tempo to fit the ability level of your students. It is hope that this piece helps to reinforce the concepts of good musicianship which you are trying to instill in your students. Bowings should be used as a guide and should be adjusted to your needs.It has been my pleasure to have had the opportunity to write this piece. I hope that you and your students find it useful for your program.

Expressive playing, some simple counterpoint, and a touch of pizzicato characterize this contemporary sounding but accessible piece in two contrasting sections, slow and lively. Duration: 3'15.
The definition of Air is a tune or melody, but often it is used to describe a piece that is lyrical in nature, as in the first section of this piece. The next section of the piece is called Caprice, which is the French word for capriccio. The term capriccio has been used as the title for a variety of different types of works throughout music history. It is used here in its literal definition which describes the fanciful, capricious nature of the second section of the piece.As part of the development of the piece, the minor material from the Air is used as bridge material in the Caprice section. The Air and Caprice should be very contrasting in style. Play the Air very sustained and chorale-like and the Caprice, light with forward motion. The tempo of the Caprice should not be too fast; however, the tempo can be adjusted down to accommodate the ability level of your ensemble. Bowings have not been over-marked, and no slurs are used; feel free to alter it if necessary.It has been my pleasure to have had the opportunity to write this piece. I hope that you and your students find it useful for your program.

Like a cozy sweater on a cold day, this original wintertime poem juxtaposes warmth with chills. Imagine the opening descending motive as the first falling flake and the eventual musical layers as accumulating snow. Each voice part sings in the sweet spot of their tessitura to garner rich choral tone. A harmonically vivid bridge creates contrast and offers a flurry of beauty in the piano, as singers realize the beautiful snowflakes are fleeting, all too soon they fade away. Delicate yet deep, simple yet stunning. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
