Off in the distance you hear the storm begin, the lightning strike, the thunder roar and then Storm Chaser takes off to dramatically depict a terrible storm! Educator and composer Kevin Mixon gives us a daring and aggressive new piece that includes the sounds of finger snapping as raindrops and thunder. The melody is angular and strong, which the students will love and play brilliantly in a contest or festival setting.

One of the most beloved of all Christmas carols is presented in an easy, yet beautiful arrangement by Roy Phillippe. Every sections is given a chance to play the melody in the very playable setting. The optional piano part adds interest and colorful lines to this already very special piece.
I am of the opinion that a piece of music is not judged by how difficult it is to play, but by how good it sounds. While my arrangement of Silent Night is written for beginning string players, I have tried to keep it interesting for all players. It should be played warmly with expression to create a full sound.The piece begins with an introduction based on the three-note Silent Night motive. The main melody is introduced in m. 5 by the first Violins, and is harmonized by the second Violins and Violas. The Cellos reiterate the motive in mm. 6,8,10 and 11. Beginning at m.12 the motive alternates between the Violin II and the Cellos. The melody is played tutti until the key change at m.29, at which point when the Cellos and Basses take the melody with light accompaniment in the Violins and Violas. The final statement of the melody is played by the first violins beginning in m. 37. The Silent Night motive from the beginning alternates between Violin II and the Cellos to the end.

Work attributions have a way of maintaining themselves in the collective mind for a long time. Take the cantata Das ist je gewisslich wahr, for instance, which was listed in Johann Gottlob Immanuel Breitkopf's catalogue of musical prints and manuscripts as a work by J. S. Bach in 1761 and sent out into the world propagating this error. Up into the mid 19th century, copies of the score were made under Bach's name, and the work was also given a BWV number (141) after it was incorporated in the Complete Edition of the Bach-Gesellschaft. Experts ultimately raised doubts about Bach's authorship, grappled with it and finally uncovered its true composer, Georg PhilippTelemann. The evidence - contemporary copies of parts by Telemann's copyists and a reliable printing of the text which assigns the work to the Hamburg cantata cycle 1723 - leaves no room for doubt: this work is genuine Telemann!

This nice and easy-to-perform ragtime features a number of catchy tunes. Every individual voice carries the melody.

Composed by Jason W. Krug. General. With Handchimes. Score. Beckenhorst Press #HB755. Published by Beckenhorst Press (BP.HB755).

Written for 3 to 6 octave handbell choir. Level 4.

This exciting original tune from the pen of Jason Krug is not to be missed! Featuring alternating measures of 4/4 and 3/4, the joyful, memorable melody moves throughout the ensemble. Frequent interludes take the piece off in different directions before coming back to the melody once more. A slower, retrospective middle section gives a respite before the driving feeling returns once more to close the piece out in explosive, festive fashion!
