UPC: 688670220418. English. Psalms 139.

Mary Sidney (1561-1621) penned an English version of Psalm 139 which is set here for soprano solo, SA chorus, and keyboard. The piece begins with a haunting, almost talismanic setting of the text “Thou dost know when I sit down and rise up,” but it is set in Latin, and will return later as an accompaniment beneath the English text which is set to a beautiful, almost folk-like melody, albeit a bit more angular in spots. Yet the angularity suits the text perfectly and is comfortable. The result is a perfect anthem about God’s all-knowing and ever-present care. Duration: 6:00.

ISBN 9790570485123.

Thes e pieces started life as an excuse to get together with some flute playing friends. It's now become something of a project. The pieces work with/without rhythm section, or alternatively you can just add one or two rhythm section players e.g use piano and bass or bass and drums etc. The pieces will work with a flute choir or quartet, but try and make sure that the top part has more weight of numbers than the other parts.  When rehearsing, try to obey all articulation markings. In jazz we like to develop a sense of 'groove'. Always bear that in mind.  The parts themselves are very playable (I think), but fitting some sections together may be tricky, so they may need to be played very slowly at first. My concept of the pieces is that all the parts should be played as accurately and together as possible. Much of getting a good groove is about togetherness. .

Composed by Liz Sharma. Double Wind Quartet. Score and parts. Forton Music #FM476. Published by Forton Music (FT.FM476).

ISBN 9790570483754.

Perm utations was originally written as a piece for Hampshire Double Reed ensemble  directed by Andrew Knights. They first performed it at a Double Reed Society Day at Trinity College of Music. Later I wrote the clarinet choir version for a wind course in Scotland, & there are also a saxophone ensemble version, and mixed wind ensemble versions. The title 'Permutations' describes a piece in which all the parts are of equal importance, and play together in various different combinations, or 'Permutations'.  The first movement contains some quite dynamic themes, the 2nd is more calm and pensive, but both contain contrasting passages. The 3rd movement - the 'Salsa' is full of exuberance and fun, but with some short contrasting passages in which the various instruments strut their stuff.

If this text, inspired by Martin Luther King's speech about the Montgomery march, doesn't sufficiently summon one's attention, then combining it with this musical setting will quite certainly accomplish that goal. “Truth pressed to the earth . . . Justice trampled down . . . Love nailed to a Cross . . . through these resurrections we have hope.” A piece with much gravitas.

This seven-minute SATB setting of a section of the 1640 text from the Bay Psalm Book takes wing like the birds it first mentions. What would normally be a somber litany of affliction is set to music that hints at eternal things and the saving power of God. The middle section “I said, ‘In the middle of my days, O my God, do not take away me” is set, amazingly, in Latin, which gives a wonderful contrast to the more lyrical beginning. The beginning material returns as the Latin text is now sung in English, concluding “Thy years throughout all ages are.” This music is sublime and transcendent.
