red by the memory of an
influential music
educator, Carol Brittin
Chambers has woven a
multitude of grooves,
colors, and uplifting
themes into To Create a
Voice. Chambers has
attempted to convey
distinct moods and
emotions that this
educator tried to instill
in his students. In honor
of this dynamic teacher,
you will hear Hot
Cross Buns cleverly
placed throughout the
composition. To Create
a Voice was commissioned
by the Valley Concert
Band in Stockton,
California. The piece
premiered in October
2017, in memory and
celebration of Chris
Anderson, a local
musician and
educator.When writing
this piece, I tried to
convey certain moods and
emotions throughout:
soulful at the beginning
with calm woodwind chords
and solo trombone;
increased energy
throughout the various
sections of the piece;
exploration of different
grooves and colors; an
uplifting, emotional
ending that leaves the
listener with a sense of
how positive and loving
Chris was.This piece is
largely inspired by a
specific quote from
Chris:Most people would
consider the sounds
students first make on
their instruments to be
cringe-worthy, but to me
that’s music to my
ears, because
that’s the first
time students put a voice
to their instrument. Over
time those voices become
stronger; they become
clear, more confident,
and get to a point where
they use those voices to
communicate with each
other, and to their
audiences.To relate to
the first notes on the
instrument idea, I used
motifs based on the first
notes most beginners ever
play, do-re-mi, which are
introduced at the
beginning of the piece
with the trombone solo,
Chris’ instrument.
During the section at m.
15, the brass introduce a
chorale that I named
Chris’ Theme while
the woodwinds keep
reminding us of do-re-mi.
Later in the piece (mm.
71 and 79), I use these
notes again, but in
reverse, which becomes a
reference to the first
song most beginners
learn, Hot Cross Buns.
This section is also
meant to portray
Chris’ quirky and
joking side. In mm. 75
and 83, Chris’
Theme presents itself
again a couple of times
in response to Hot Cross
Buns.Toward the end, at
the uplifting moment (m.
97), do-re-mi is heard
again, but this time in
harmony with mi-fa-sol.
This represents the
ultimate satisfaction we
all feel as musicians
when we have finally
progressed enough to play
in harmony with others.
The half-time feeling in
3 at that moment also has
significance, relating
(rhythmically) to those
important three notes
again.I really hope you
enjoy performing and
listening to this piece
as much as I have enjoyed
creating it! $95.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 24 hours - In Stock | | |

Bernofsky. 12 pages.

680160687992. A
violinist herself, Lauren
Bernofsky has described
SONATA FOR SOLO VIOLIN as
drawn from
autobiographical
inspiration, including
gestures from Bachâ??s
beloved Partita in E
Major. Bernofsky opens
with a Preludio movement
whose references to Bach
may be disguised, but
they are surely lurking.
The second movement is
lusciously contrapuntal
with the idiomatic
finesse of a violinist
composing for her own
instrument, while
musically journaling the
emotional pain of living
through 2020. The third
and final movement is
aptly marked
â??white-hot,â? and
the music certainly
is. My SONATA FOR SOLO
VIOLIN was commissioned
by violinist Megan Healy
as part of The Maud
Powell Project, which
celebrated the 100th
anniversary of the
ratification of the 19th
Amendment. The project
included the creation of
five new works for solo
violin inspired by and
dedicated to the memory
of pioneering American
violinist Maud Powell
(1867-1920). Healy
premiered the sonata on
May 8, 2021 at PianoForte
Studios in Chicago.Among
the works Powell most
frequently performed in
her recitals was the
â??Preludioâ?
movement from Bachâ??s E
major Partita, and I
decided to refer to that
music in my own first
movement, also titled
â??Preludio.â? The
beginning subtly reflects
Bachâ??s opening
three-note motive,
wherein the music dips
down a semitone and then
comes back up. This
melodic material returns
throughout the movement
in various forms. I also
refer to Bachâ??s
sixteenth-note dominated
texture, and the gesture
in the third measure,
which outlines a perfect
fifth and then fills it
in with notes that
alternate between a scale
and a pedal tone. The
corresponding passage in
my piece occurs in the
same place, measure 3.
Apart from these
references to Bach, my
sonata is much more
modern sounding,
especially in its
chromatic character.I was
still thinking of
Bachâ??s solo violin
writing while composing
the second movement,
particularly the
polyphonic nature of the
slow movements, where the
melodic interest moves
around between the
voices. Emotionally, I
wanted my movement to
reflect the acute sadness
I had been experiencing
over the political and
social situation in the
United States as I wrote
the piece. I realized
that this is a
historically noteworthy
time in U.S. history,
marked not only by
political unrest, but
also by a challenge to
the very values that I
consider essential to
what makes a person
fundamentally human. I
wanted to create a record
of that pain in my
music.The final movement
is marked
â??White-hot.â? It is
imbued with a relentless,
passionate intensity.
Wanting again to reflect
aspects of our own time,
I included glissandi that
refer to rock music,
specifically the
â??fall-offsâ? I
frequently hear played by
electric guitarists. I
borrowed from another
(completely different)
musical tradition as
well, one that is
near-and-dear to my
heart: Klezmer. Klezmer
(Eastern European Jewish
folk music) is
characterized in part by
scales colored by
augmented seconds, and is
often performed by solo
instrumentalists who
improvise embellishments
like quick grace notes.
The second, more lyrical
theme in this movement is
my nod to Klezmer
style.While this piece is
an homage to Maud Powell,
I also think of it as my
own musical
autobiography, as it
combines some of my
favorite aspects of
music, and is played on
my own instrument. $12.99 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

NotesThere is no possible
way I could compose a
piece of music worthy of
the memory of my close
friend, Dr. David Kirby,
who died very suddenly at
an early age. Neither
could I write a piece
that could come close to
reflecting his kind
spirit, wit, personality
or talent. In fact, it
was almost impossible for
me to write anything at
all. My own grief and the
stages of my
grief kept getting in
the way. I ended up with
a setting of the
hymn-tune, Resignation.
Resigned. To the fact
that he is no longer
with us. I know he is
in a better place, but we
are not. We miss him very
much. And so, My Shepherd
Will Supply My Need seems
to speak to those of us
he left behind. I
apologize if this piece
does not reflect your
special feelings for him
or help you celebrate his
moving on. Unfortunately,
I could only put down
what I have come to
accept and hope in some
way it may speak to any
of you that knew him or
to others of you who have
also lost a close friend.
My Shepherd Will Supply
My Need. That is my
hope and my hope for
you.Although technically
very easy, this
composition requires a
maturity of musicianship
to be performed properly.
The Bb contrabass
clarinet part is integral
to the composition, but
there are cues in the
tuba part if you need
them. Â Make sure you
bring horns to the fore
at m. 53 and the low
brass at m. 59 so the
melody can be heard
without effort.
Exaggerate dynamics to
bring more emotion to the
piece. Be careful not to
diminuendo too soon near
the end or it will be
difficult to diminish
even further at the very
end, where the lone
clarinetist holds over a
couple of measures,
fading into nothing. I
hope your students will
enjoy this piece and take
from it a greater
appreciation for the way
making music can express
feelings. $110.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 24 hours - In Stock | | |

Steven Mead in
celebration of his 60th
birthday and in memory of
his father, Rex. He gave
the premiere of the brass
band version in Rome in
March 2022, accompanied
by the Italian Brass Band
conducted by Filippo
Cangiamilla. The
concertband premiere took
place on 6th July that
year as part of the 2022
Spanish International
Tuba Euphonium
Conference, accompanied
by the Banda municipal de
música de Málaga.
The concerto is set in 3
continuous movements,
which are united by a
recurring syncopated
interval of a fifth. The
first movement, FANTASIA,
opens with this motive
accompanying an extended
monologue for the
soloist. This is followed
by a lengthy bridge
passage by the piano,
which is eventually
joined by the soloist,
who guides the music back
to the opening soliloquy,
leading to an energetic
central section. This
develops until the
opening material again
returns to introduce the
second movement, BALLAD,
which revolves around an
expressive melody for the
soloist, interspersed by
accompanied cadenzas. The
thirdmovement, THE KING
TRIUMPHANT, pays homage
to StevenÂ’s late
father, Rex, and its
title alludes both to
Rex's name ('Rex' being
Latinfor 'king') as well
as his love of Eric
BallÂ’s Salvationist
masterpiece, The Kingdom
Triumphant. The finale is
an energetic
tour-de-force featuring
an acrobatic 6/8 melody,
which is interrupted
twice by the magnificent
hymn tune, Helmsley,
which Ball uses so
effectively in The
Kingdom Triumphant. A
galloping coda brings the
work to a close. $38.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |
