This contrasting work builds up twice from quiet relaxation or meditative calm to a climax for the entire ensemble, before the main section, a rhythmic vivo, begins. Golden Winds ensures truly precious moments in your concert right up to thelast note!

Twee keer vindt in dit contrastrijke werk een opbouw plaats van rustige spanning of meditatieve rust tot een hoogtepunt voor het complete orkest, waarna het hoofdgedeelte, een ritmisch vivo, zich ontvouwt. Tot aan het feestelijke slot zorgt GoldenWinds voor gouden muzikale momenten tijdens uw eerstvolgende concert!

Zweimal baut sich dieses kontrastreiche Werk von leiser Spannung oder meditativer Ruhe zu einem Höhepunkt für das gesamte Orchester auf, bevor der Hauptteil, ein rhythmisches Vivo, einsetzt. Bis hin zum festlichen Schluss sorgt Golden Windsfür wahrhaft goldene musikalische Momente in Ihrem Konzert!

Golden Winds s’ouvre sur un thème nerveux et énergique joué dans le registre grave des bois qui se développe en canon et s’amplifie pour arriver un climax avec l’orchestre entier. L’ambiance s’apaise pour introduire un passage contemplatifqui met en avant d’abord les clarinettes, puis un thème opulent en forme de choral qui se transforme en un tutti ardent. Les Vents Dorés s’achèvent par une conclusion festive.

Golden Winds inizia con un tema energico eseguito nel registro grave dei legni che poi si sviluppa in canone amplificandosi fino ad arrivare al culmine con l’intero organico. La musica diventa più calma per introdurre un passaggiocontemplativo che mette dapprima in luce le caratteristiche dei clarinetti, e in seguito un tema opulento in forma di corale che si trasforma in un ardente tutti. I “Venti Dorati” terminano con una nota festiva.

Edouard Lalo's Symphonie espagnole was heretofore inadequately edited: the two first editions (piano reduction and score) differ considerably from one another, since the composer continued to hone his work after the completion of the engraver's master for the piano reduction, and he even made certain compositional additions. Christian Rudolf Riedel's new urtext edition eliminates all these inadequacies and inconsistencies. Moreover, the editor was able to base himself for the first time ever on the previously unknown autograph of the solo part. The discovery of this source was nothing less than sensational. Lalo, who was an outstanding violinist in his own right, had meticulously marked up his manuscript with the help of the arrangement by Pablo de Sarasate, to whom Lalo had dedicated the work and entrusted the world premiere. This new source situation allowed for the preparation of an urtext edition that corresponds throughout to the author's final version. The composer's piano part, which sometimes resembles a short score, was revised by the editor, who rendered it easier to perform and supplemented the ten measures that had been missing until now in the introduction to the fifth movement.As benfits this publishing house, the handy 6x9 inch score is meticulously edited and is a welcome aid to study of the whole works.

Composed by Geoffrey Brand. Arranged by Geoffrey Brand. Band Music. Score only. Duration 5:25. Published by G & M Brand Music Publishers (CN.S11251).

Originally written for piano, Grieg later scored his Holberg Suite for orchestra. Geoffrey Brand has done a masterful job of setting two movements of the suite - the Sarabande and Gavotte - for wind band. Give your students the opportunity to perform first-rate classical music they wouldn't otherwise have access to.

Born in Bergen, Norway, into a family of Scottish descent, Edvard Grieg showed a talent for music early and at the age of 10 had piano lessons from his mother. In 1849 he went to study at Leipzig Conservatoire before moving to Copenhagen where he met Riokaard Nordaak, a young Norwegian composer who was immersed in Norwegian nationalism and greatly influence Grieg who felt his future was as a musician dedicated to romantic nationalism. Holberg Suite, originally for piano, was written in 1884 in response to a commission to mark the bicentenary of the birth of Ludvig Holberg, a Norwegian dramatist and satirist. A year later, Grieg arranged 5 movements for string orchestra. Sarabande and Gavotte are intended to be played segue but can, if desired, be performed separately. The music expresses Grieg and his native Norway in a manner which justifies his declaration I am not an exponent of Scandinavian music but of Norwegian..

Guitar Solo

SKU: IS.G6761EM

Composed by Silvio Leopold Weiss. Arranged by Ben Beuming. Plucked - Guitar. Metropolis Music Publishers #G6761EM. Published by Metropolis Music Publishers (IS.G6761EM).

ISBN 9790365067619.

This sonata (WeissSW No. 48, Dresden) is one of a new series of eight sonatas by Silvius Leopold Weiss arranged for the first time for guitar and published by Metropolis Music. Sonata XXIII comes from a set of tablature manuscript volumes in the Sächsisches Landesbibliothek in Dresden (Ms. Mus. 2841-â?V-â?1). There are five volumes with a total of 34 sonatas of Weiss for solo lute. The sonatas are ordered by key and further sorted by size or complexity. Sonata XXIII is a large and mature piece. It probably dates to the last period of the life of Weiss. The Sonata has seven movements: Prelude, Allemande (andante), Courante, Bourée, Sarabande (andante), Menuet, and it ends with a Presto. The use of tempo indications for French dance movements is characteristic for the later work of Weiss. The purpose of beginning a lute sonata with a Prelude is to introduce the specific key and the harmonic design of the sonata. However, not every sonata in the Dresden manuscripts has a Prelude. About one third of the 34 Dresden Sonatas opens with a Prelude, but only six of them may be considered truly integral to the sonata. The other Preludes are composed in a rather â??rudimentaryâ?? style, as a model for the less experienced lute player to improvise on the central key and theme. They may have been added later in the copying process. The Prelude of this particular Sonata is regarded as spurious, in respect to composition, a rather weak addition. I have included the Prelude in this Edition, leaving it to the guitar player to judge whether it fits with the musical style and idiom of the Sonata or not. Originally, the Sonata is written in F sharp minor, a key often used by Weiss as it is appropriate for playing the lute, but rather awkward with the guitar. For ease and effectiveness of playing, I have transposed the Sonata a major second lower to E minor. To create more concordance with the baroque tuning of the lute, the G string is lowered by a semitone to F sharp. I suggest using a capodastro to achieve the original pitch. Based on the present standard of A at 440 Hertz, the capo should be placed at the 2nd fret. However, during Weissâ??s lifetime, it was more common in many parts of Germany to use a standard of A at 415 Hertz -â? a semitone lower. So, to hear the pitch heard by Weiss and his contemporaries, the capo should then be positioned at the 1st fret.

ISBN 9780786692767. 8.75 x 11.75 inches.

Dave explains his approach to jazz improvisation with musical examples that he himself uses, learned from years of playing with the greats - after learning how to play jazz from listening to players such as Grant Green, Wes Montgomery and Pat Martino. Explains the minor sub approach using minor scales to play over dominant seventh chords, and then includes several solos over often-played jazz standards, using this approach. Also described are the use of the blues and pentatonic scales as well as be-bop ideas, the melodic minor scale, and whole-tone and diminished scales and patterns. Hanon-type warm up exercises and Daves own fingerings shown in tab are also described. Perfect for intermediate-to-more advanced players, Daves concise way of explaining his approach will open up the students to developing their own improvisational ideas. Dave plays the examples and solos on the audio including tracks with a rhythm only section for student play-along. Includes access to online audio.

The word Mikrokosmos may be interpreted as a series of pieces in many different styles, representing a small world. Or it may be interpreted as world of the little ones, the children.
