I Love the 207 was composed in February 2010 for a commission by Osumi Symphonic Band in Kyoto. It was first performed on 25 April 2010 by Osumi Symphonic Band, conducted by Masanori Ozaki. This piece begins with an introduction to present the instruments, followed by a light scherzo. The title is an affectionate reference to the commuter rail 207 series of the West Japan Railway Company. When the band started their activity, the 207 series trains began running through the fields next to the building where they practice. The composer hopes that the trains continue to run and bring smiles to people’s faces.

I Love the 207 is in februari 2010 gecomponeerd in opdracht van de Osumi Symphonic Band uit Kyoto, Japan. Dit orkest bracht op 25 april 2010 de première, onder leiding van dirigent Masanori Ozaki. Het werk begint met een inleidingwaarin de instrumenten worden gepresenteerd, gevolgd door een licht scherzo. De titel verwijst naar de forenzentrein van het type 207 van de West Japan Railway Company. Toen het orkest begon, begonnen ook de treinen uit de207-serie door de velden te rijden naast het gebouw waar wordt gerepeteerd. De componist hoopt dat de treinen zullen blijven rijden tot tevredenheid van de mensen die er gebruik van maken.

I Love the 207 wurde im Februar 2010 als Auftragswerk für die Osumi Symphonic Band in Kyoto (Japan) komponiert. Die Urraufführung fand am 25. April 2010 mit der Osumi Symphonic Band, unter der Leitung von Masanori Ozaki, statt. Das Stück beginnt einer Einleitung zur Vorstellung aller Instrumente; dann folgt ein leichtes Scherzo. Der Titel ist eine liebevolle Anspielung auf die Pendlerzüge der Serie 207 der West-Japanischen Eisenbahngesellschaft. Während der Anfangszeit des Blasorchesters begannen die Züge der 207er-Serie die Felder ganz in der Nähe des Proberaums zu durchqueren. Mit diesem Stück will der Komponist seiner Hoffnung Ausdruck verleihen, dass die Züge auchweiterhin fahren und ein Lächeln auf die Gesichter der Menschen zaubern mögen.

Cette pièce a été composée en février 2010 pour honorer une commande de l’Orchestre Vent d’Osumi, Kyoto (Japon). Elle a été créée le 25 avril 2010 par cet orchestre, sous la direction de Masanori Ozaki. I Love the 207 s’ouvre avec une présentation de chacun des pupitres, suivie d’un scherzo léger. Le titre fait affectueusement référence aux trains de banlieue de la série 207 de la West Japan Railway Company. En effet, les débuts de l’orchestre co ncidèrent avec l’introduction de ces trains sur la ligne qui traverse les champs avoisinant le b timent où se déroulent les répétitions. Le compositeur espère que les trains continueront de rouler et de faire sourire les gens.

Questo brano è stato commissionato a Itaru Sakai dall’orchestra di fiati di Osumi in Giappone. I Love the 207 inizia con la presentazione di ogni sezione della banda, seguita da un leggero scherzo. Il titolo si riferisce affettuosamente e con un tocco ironico ai treni della periferia della serie 207 della West Japan Railway Company. In effetti, la data di fondazione dell’orchestra di fiati che ha commissionato il brano coincide con la nascita di questi treni che attraversano le campagne e sfrecciano vicino alla sede della banda.

A perfect seasonal choice, Onward we go is a consummate example of Thomas Hewitt Jonesâ??s feeling for young voices, and his passion for sharing the joy of Christmas through memorable tunes. A beautiful, arching melody carries the delightful verse by Canon Gordon Giles, which tells of children singing as they journey to the manger. Shepherds, angels and the Magi accompany them on their way, bearing gifts of love to honour the incarnation in faith, hope and reverence. Expressive and irresistible, words and music go straight to the heart, with a warmth especially inspired by the dedicatees, chorister-tutor Caroline Lenton-Ward and the childrenâ??s choir of St Stephenâ??s, South Dulwich, a church which also played a formative part in the composerâ??s musical upbringing.

Onward we go may be performed by unison voices with organ or piano, or with organ or piano and additional flexible instrumental ensemble including any available upper strings and woodwind, plus optional cello, bass guitar or double bass, mark tree and tubular bells.

A set of score and parts for the optional ensemble (Cat. No. Y373) will be available to purchase.

As part of John M. Feierabend's continuing effort to preserve our rich heritage of children's folk songs, GIA Publications, Inc. is pleased to expand its series of picture books based on these timeless songs and stories. Had a Little Rooster is the latest lavishly illustrated children's songtale based on the great American folk music heritage, and collected by John M. Feierabend. This delightful traditional folk song tells the story of a Rooster and all his friends on the farm who love to sing. Had a Little Rooster is a cumulative song that has been shared and sung for more than 100 years, with each verse introducing a new character and a new sound that must be added to the previous verse, making each verse longer and longer. Cumulative songs are fun to sing, as they require singers to use more and more breath, and challenge them to remember an ever-increasing cast of characters and sounds. The songs are truly brought to life by the vibrant illustrations of Jamie-Lynn Morrow. FREE MP3 Download - Full Performance MP3 download instructions: Windows users right click on the link.

UPC: 785147005025.

Conve rsational Solfege is a curriculum for developing music literacy skills. It is organized around increasingly complex rhythmic and melodic content. Each new rhythmic or melodic element is discovered first in patterns and then reinforced with folk songs, rhymes, and classical examples. This CD provides 29 classical selections referenced in Conversational Solfege Level 3. These examples provide reinforcement for emerging literacy skills, and they also enable students to listen to wonderful classical examples with greater attention. Listening to classical music can be challenging for elementary students. With nothing to hang onto, the many notes can be too much to comprehend and attention soon wanes. But with minimal literacy skills, students will have enough musical information to discover that classical music can be accessible and appealing. In the booklet, timings are given for each selection. The portions of the music that are readable by the students are reproduced. Whether using this CD with Conversational Solfege instructional materials or simply as a resource of classical music with simple-to-read rhythmic and melodic material, both teachers and students will delight in discovering this wonderful music through literacy.   CONTENTS Conversational Solfege Unit 14: 1.
