Though not as familiar as other holiday carols, this ancient melody has an intrinsic beauty in both its shape and harmonic support. Reflecting those elements, this arrangement creates an evocative sound world. The mood is inspired by viewing the expanse of the night sky. Throughout history, we as humans are connected, in a sense, by the fact that we look up at the same pattern of stars today as those who created this ancient tune so many years ago, which suggests a point of connection over time. In this arrangement you will find a sense of wonder and awe as the melody weaves its way between consonance and dissonance. The re-imagining of this medieval carol reflects the timeless nature of the Christmas season. Students will work on sustaining long tones and tuning non-traditional chords in this choral-like setting for string orchestra. The melody flows between all the parts with short musical interludes between.

This volume focuses on the medieval period from approximately the sixth to fifteenth centuries. The music of this era was traditionally performed as plainchant (sacred) or monophony (secular), that is, as a vocal melody, here reserved for the soprano recorder. Seeking to emulate medieval performance practice, the 20 tunes in this collection are accompanied by a single, drone-like power or 5-chord to be played on a modern-day stringed instrument such as guitar, mandolin or banjo. These simple troubadour songs are ideal for beginners and experienced players alike, who want to be transported back in time, immersed in a bygone era of music. .

Christmas is full of customs and traditions, both old and new. This is especially evident in Christmas songs, some of which have been part of Christian worship for centuries. A Medieval Christmas combines three ancient melodies that are stillpopular around the world today. Philip Sparke chose Gaudete, a song of praise from the middle ages, Coventry Carol, an English song from the 14th century, and In dulci jubilo, which can also be traced back to the 14th century, toform this joyous suite.

Kerst is een feest van tradities en gebruiken. Dit komt vooral naar voren uit de kerstliederen die al eeuwenlang een centrale plaats innemen binnen de christelijke cultuur. In A Medieval Christmas staan drie oude melodieën centraal diewereldwijd nog steeds populair zijn. Het zijn het middeleeuwse loflied Gaudete, het Engelse Coventry Carol en het bekende In dulci jubilo.

Weihna chten ist auch ein Fest des Brauchtums und der Tradition. Dies zeigt sich ganz besonders in den Weihnachtsliedern, die oft schon seit Jahrhunderten einen zentralen Platz in der christlichen Kultur einnehmen. A Medieval Christmasverwendet drei dieser alten Melodien, die sich heute noch weltweit größter Beliebtheit erfreuen: das mittelalterliche Loblied Gaudete, das englische Coventry Carol aus dem 14. Jahrhundert und das bekannte In dulci jubilo, dasebenfalls auf das 14. Jahrhundert zurückgeht.

Dan s de nombreux pays, Noël est un moment privilégié, célébré par de nombreux chants et mélodies dont beaucoup constituent un élément central du culte chrétien. Le fait que ces chants anciens subsistent depuis si longtemps témoigne de leur attraitimmuable, formant un lien tangible avec les festivités de Noël qui se déroulaient il y a des centaines d'années. A Medieval Christmas emprunte trois de ces ancestrales mélodies, demeurées populaires dans le monde entier : Gaudete,Coventry Carol, et In Dulci Jubilo.

Il Natale é la festa delle tradizioni e ciò si riscontra facilmente nei canti natalizi che da secoli occupano un posto di primo piano nella tradizione cristiana. A Medieval Christmas propone tre antiche melodie, ancora oggi moltoattuali: il canto di lode Gaudete, Coventry Carol e In Dulci Jubilo, entrambe del XIV secolo.

Sephardic Anthology of Piyutim
for clarinet and guitar
clarinet edited with special fingerings by Guy Yehuda
42 miniatures

Sephardic Anthology of Piyutim for Clarinet and Guitar is a fabric of 42 short pieces based on prayers and piyutim that Daniel collected and researched over many years. He learned the basis of this tradition from his father, the paytan Yitzhak Akiva. Daniel also participated in various projects of the Israel Broadcast Authority in the field of Sephardic (Spanish) Jewish music, served as chazzan (cantor) in his community, and two years ago participated in the Illumination: Early Jewish Italian Spiritual Music project produced by Ayela Seidelman and Bari Moscovitz.
The anthology for clarinet and guitar is part of a large project which includes recordings of the original piyutim on which these compositions are based with various artists and paytanim. The project includes piyutim of the Jerusalem and Haifa Sephardic traditions, medieval Italian tradition, and Moroccan tradition.
Sephardic - Spanish. Jews descended from those expelled from Spain in 1492 and their traditions.
Piyut (pl. piyutim) - liturgical poems
Paytan (pl. paytanim) - a singer or composer of piyutim.
