Casa Ricordi Milano in partnership with Fondazione Giorgio Cini, Venezia (Istituto Antonio Vivaldi). Critical edition by Alessandro Borin. The six Concerts op. VI for violin, strings and continuo by Antonio Vivaldi were published in Amsterdam by Roger in 1719. Although the contribution of Vivaldi was probably modest – even to assume that the collection was published without the composer's assistance and perhaps even his agreement – these six compositions mark a decisive step towards the definition of the classic Vivaldi Concerto, a change evident both from the systematic adoption of the three-movement plan and from the absence of any supplementary solo parts beyond the principal violin. This critical edition is based on the first edition of Opus VI and its reprints, but takes also into consideration all the sources of single concertos printed into anthologies or transmitted in manuscript form (Wiesentheid and Dresden). The information gathered through the comparative analysis of the manuscript and the printed traditions of Vivaldi's Opus 6 has permitted us to reconstruct the links among the sources, to clarify some problematic editorial decisions and formulate new hypotheses on the genesis and the intrinsic nature of the collection as a whole.

Something has happened at the circus... the magician has hypnotized the entire audience and the circus isn't quite right. After a strange and frightening beginning, there is a gentle, yet peculiar rain that falls. A creepy theme in the tenor saxophone (interrupted by some terrifying screams) moves into the trapeze artists theme where they seem to encounter an accident. A short funeral procession leads back into the lone sneaky saxophone before the magic box is opened. This magic slowly evolves into a return to normality and back to The Greatest Show on Earth! Experience this spine-chilling circus with Carnival of Shadows by David Marlatt. (6:00).

An Equity Framework for Music Education. Composed by Karen Howard. World Music Initiative. Music Education. 242 pages. GIA Publications #10760. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-10760).

ISBN 9781622776979.

Ques tions abound about diversity in music education. How can we engage with diverse populations, repertoire, and identities while upholding integrity and achieving equity? What are cultural appropriation, othering, tokenizing, and essentializing? How can we avoid bias in our teaching and repertoire selection? How do we create a more socially just music education? These are critical questions with accessible answers. But if we are to become better music educators, we must reflect on these questions, our own identities, and our relationships with the music and people of the world. Realizing Diversity by Karen Howard is a groundbreaking and practical resource for crafting diverse and anti-bias music education in classrooms, ensembles, and studios at all levels—from preschool to university and community settings. At the book’s core is an Anti-Bias Framework intended to help music educators gain confidence and comfort in designing music curricula that are just, equitable, and make participants feel safe and welcome. Structured around the four social justice domains of identity, diversity, justice, and action, this framework explores topics of anti-racism, gender and sexual identity, power and privilege, disabilities, economic realities, empathy, and critical consciousness. Dr. Howard also includes discussion of educational movements in United States history, the challenging “world music” label and related authenticity, the hyper-prevalence of Western Eurocentric music, inclusive repertoire selection, as well as appendices with critical practices for educators and a sample curriculum. An indispensable book for pre-service, beginning, and veteran music teachers of toddlers through adults, Realizing Diversity considers the many separate but deeply interrelated questions related to creating a more socially just music education. Karen Howard is a frequent presenter working with teachers and presenting research related to creating a more socially just world of music education. She is Associate Professor of Music at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota. She teaches undergraduate and graduate courses related to children’s music, sociology of education, research methods, ethnomusicology, and matters of diversity.

Concert Band - Grade 6

SKU: BT.DHP-1053805-040

Composed by Jan Van der Roost. Arranged by Tohru Takahashi. Sovereign Series. Concert Piece. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2005. De Haske Publications #DHP 1053805-040. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-1053805-040).

9x12 inches. English-German-French-Dut ch.

This piece attempts to portray atmospheric pictures through music. The opening section evokes the somewhat misty and hazy early morning atmosphere surrounding the ancient monument. When the band reaches its first dynamic climax it is as if the massive boulders are audible, even touchable through the use of minor 3rd chords. The main theme - constructed on the notes CAFBG symbolises the arrangement of the central boulders in the shape of a horseshoe, which forms the focal point of this huge collection of stones. Towards the end of the work you will experience a fantastic effect when five soloists play a five part hymn whilst other members of the band create a specialatmosphere by imitating a choir of monks and druids. A fantastic major new concert work for advanced bands.

Een enorme cirkel van gigantische rechtopstaande stenen staat al zo’n 3500 jaar lang in het zuidwesten van Engeland. In dit werk zijn sfeerbeelden omgezet in muziek. Hoewel er geen concreet verhaal aan ten grondslag ligt en er geenduidelijk scenario is gebruikt, verklankt deze compositie het mysterie en de grootsheid van het eeuwenoude geheimzinnige monument Stonehenge op voortreffelijke wijze.

Im Südwesten Englands steht seit fast 3500 Jahren ein Ring riesiger Steine: Stonehenge. Das gleichnamige Werk von Jan Van der Roost bringt mystische Stimmungen und Bilder rund um die alte Stätte auf musikalische Weise zum Klingen. Das Hauptmotiv aus fünf Tönen zieht sich durch das gesamte Werk und symbolisiert den hufeisenförmigen inneren Ring des riesigen Steinkreises. Später gemahnen fünf Vokalsolisten sowie ein gesungener Druiden- und Mönchs-Chor an Stimmen aus einer fremden Welt. Stonehenges ungelüftetes Geheimnis schlug den Komponisten in seinen Bann und inspirierte ihn zu diesem ebenso unwiderstehlichen Werk, das Tohru Takahashi nun für Blasorchester transkribierte.

Tpt. pft. - Advanced

SKU: FT.FM590

Composed by Tony Bridgewater. A large scale sonata for Trumpet and Piano. Score and part. Forton Music #FM590. Published by Forton Music (FT.FM590).

ISBN 9790570484898.

This Trumpet Sonata was written in 2003, and was intended to be a showpiece for the trumpeter and pianist, and to appeal to the audience through a melodic style and exciting interplay between the piano and soloist. It is in three movements.   The first is fast and lively, and there is a strong jazz influence in the syncopated rhythms. The music constantly develops an exciting, fanfare-like motif, although there is a more lyrical and song like mood in the middle section, which is based on a slower, more relaxed version of the fanfare idea.  By contrast, the slow middle movement is very still and enigmatic, with a hypnotic ostinato pattern on the piano. This supports melodic phrases on the trumpet which gradually become more dramatic and impassioned as the music progresses. At the coda there is a lower ostinato on the piano, which brings the music to an end with a sense of peace and resolution.  The final movement is a lively scherzo in 10/8. Driving rhythmic patterns in the piano maintain a constant sense of forward movement, while the trumpet has exciting, syncopated melodies which blend plenty of rapid, virtuosic movement with more extended lyrical ideas. The closing bars are even faster, and the piano and trumpet combine in a headlong rush to the final chord.

ISBN 9783793141884. 9.0x12.0x0.053 inches.

In this piece, commissioned by the WDR and premiered by the Quatuor Diotima in Witten in 2016, Johannes Boris Borowski shows that, to him, the string quartet genre is a rewarding field of experimentation despite any past history: A separate architecture emerges from the contrasting of noise and sound-oriented music, an architecture which causes either rather active or rather passive listening, depending on the music's consistency. The composer got his extra-musical inspiration from Dostoyevsky's 'The Brothers Karamasov': Its hypnotic detailed drama, the rhythmic change in narrative perspective and the interconnection of crime, development and romantic novel creates a similar audience expectation.

Reich's 1967 exploration of phase shifting for violin and pre-recorded tracks is a fascinating study of gradual yet constant change in the musical experience. Schmidt's transcription for guitar is no less hypnotic. Optionally, a live performance by four guitarists benefits from a good amount of flexibility in the score. For advanced performers.

This charming and somewhat dark musical offering is a departure from this composer's usual epic style. Originally scored for fifteen players, this piece is much more intimate than the composer's thickly orchestrated grand works. Stylistically, a minimalistic compositional approach is used as the melodic content slowly unfolds over shifting ostinato patterns.
