Jazz Ensemble - Grade 3

Composed by Horace Silver. Arranged by John LaBarbera. Jazz Journey. Kendor Music Inc #02960S. Published by Kendor Music Inc (KN.02960S).

UPC: 822795029604.

In Horace Silver's own words, this sassy, bluesy shuffle with a bebop-style melody portrays a mythical man of rather dubious character. An alto, trumpet and trombone trio give the opening and closing presentations of the theme, and each of those players carries a full-length solo chorus in between. A sustained band chord with ad lib flourishes by the trio brings everything to a dramatic, satisfying close. Rhythm section parts are partially notated with chords cued. Duration 5:40.

A glorious choral Christmas collection of music from around the world!  Through Chris de Silva’s incredible choral writing and inspired instrumental scoring, the themes of Christmas are exquisitely retold – those of light, darkness, shepherds, angels, heaven, earth, fear, wonder, peace, joy, silence and sound. Chris’s formal, classical composition training shines through on each piece. From the joyfully powerful “Singing, We Come Singing” to the regal “The Child Is Born in Bethlehem” and the dance-like “Shepherds on to Bethlehem,” each of these eight pieces work beautifully as stand-alone choices for your choir’s Christmas celebrations. Together, the pieces would work well as part of a well-rounded lessons and carols service.  For choral music lovers, the Mysterium recor ding will become one of your seasonal favorites!

Children the world over love 'playtime'. A welcome break from lessons, a time to burn some energy and have fun. A time to play some games!

Playgroun d Games is a collection of etudes for bass trombone portraying these traditional games and reflecting on the childrens' enjoyment. We can picture them jumping, playing Hopscotch, Leapfrog and 'Skipping' (the Double Dutch version of this popular game) and running around in the fast and furious Tag! More peaceful moments are to be found when you sense the concentration during Marbles and Cat's Cradle and an exciting contest is on during Conker Fight.

These entertaining pieces are in many genres and styles, keys and meters. Some etudes are funky and rhythmic, others dance-like with waltzes and a merry gigue. They are appropriate for intermediate to advanced performers.

The etudes evoke feelings for those on the playground today and for others, bringing back happy memories.

Cantata for the 3rd Sunday after Epiphany. Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Edited by Uwe Wolf. Stuttgart Urtext Edition: Bach vocal. Viola. Sacred vocal music, Cantatas, Epiphany. Single Part, Viola. Composed 1729. BWV 156. 4 pages. Duration 17 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 31.156/13. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.3115613).

ISBN 9790007208790. Text language: German/English.

Ich steh mit einem Fuss im Grabe (I stand with my open grave before me) BWV 156 is one of the few surviving cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach that is based on texts from the so-called Picander cycle. As in several other cantatas that use texts from this poet, Bach opens the work with a sinfonia, most likely taken from an earlier concerto that didn't survive and is later reused as the slow movement of the famous harpsichord concerto in F minor BWV 1056. In the first aria, the poet combines his text with a well-known chorale, a technique that is often found in Bach's cantatas, particularly those from the pre-Leipzig period. The cantata is comprised of six short movements; the choir is used only in the final chorale. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3115600.

Transforming Yourself as a Musician and Conductor. Composed by Richard Sparks. Music Education. 210 pages. GIA Publications #9566. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-9566).

ISBN 9781622773589.

What do coaches, master teachers, and studies of the psychology of learning have to teach us about conducting? It turns out, quite a bit. In this concise yet insightful volume, Richard Sparks draws from years of experience in the professional choral world and from his time teaching at two leading universities to help choral conductors transform their craft and create truly artful experiences. He gains inspiration from legendary college basketball coach John Wooden and shares striking and refreshing parallels between coaching sports teams and conducting music ensembles. Sparks draws equally from research in the fields of teaching and the psychology of learning—and what a conductor can take from those areas as well. Just as an artisan builds a set of skills and learns the tools of the trade, conductors too must build a box of tools to help them learn, understand, and interpret music, lead rehearsals, and conduct. The Conductor’s Toolbox conveniently and succinctly compiles these tools. Highlights include: Assessing yourself and your choir Using modeling Developing good habits in yourself and your choir Learning and teaching new skills Rehearsing more efficiently Teaching fundamental elements of music Selecting repertoire that improves your and your choir’s skills Improving your planning and pacing of rehearsals This book is for the young conductor starting out who wants to build a truly solid craft. It is also for the experienced conductor who wonders how to move to the next level, reenergize, and grow. Richard Sparks was Professor of Music and Chair of Conducting & Ensembles at the University of North Texas from 2009–2019, and he served as Director of Choral Activities at Pacific Lutheran University from 1983–2001. He has founded and led a number of professional choral organizations and guest conducted ensembles including the Santa Fe Desert Chorale and the Swedish Radio Choir. Choral Music Skill Building Evaluation Form. This evaluation form, created by Alan Davis and available here as a free PDF download, touches on many of the skill building ideas discussed in The Conductor's Toolbox. A unique and deftly effective instructional reference guide and manual that is unreservedly recommended for personal, professional, community, college, and university library collection, The Conductor's Toolbox should be considered essential reading for anyone seeking a career in orchestral conducting in any form or format. —James A. Cox, Library Bookwatch, October 2019.

The operas of Marius Felix Lange, especially “Snow White,” “The Canterville Ghost,” “Die Schneekönigin,” “Das Opernschiff oder Am Südpol, denkt man, ist es heisse” have been incredibly successful. Many of his operas have also been performed on foreign stages, including those in Switzerland and France. Other points of emphasis in Lange's work include orchestral compositions and Lieder. The American violinist Hilary Hahn had an unusual yet very clever idea in 2012 when she requested encore pieces from present-day composers. The cycle “In 27 Pieces: The Hilary Hahn Encores” were consecutively premiered by the violinist until the end of the 2012/13 season and recorded on CD. Amongst the submissions selected by Hilary Hahn during the course of an online contest, Marius Felix Lange's violin piece “Nutcracker's Nightmare” immediately ended up amongst the ten best-placed works. The title “Nutcracker's Nightmare” recalls E.T.A. Hoffmann's famous fairytale “The Nutcracker and the Mouse King,” the gloomily imaginative story in which a wooden toy is awakened to life and has to fight against the powers of darkness.

As with scarcely any other work of the 17th century, Monteverdi's Vespers has found its way into today's repertoire. Nevertheless, the Vespers still leaves open many questions. The new edition, with its critical examination of the sources, takes up these oft-discussed issues concerning scoring possibilities, performance practice, transpositions and liturgical unity. It is based on all of the surviving copies of the print of 1610 and the earliest handwritten entries have also been critically examined and evaluated. Performance material is organized in a flexible manner to allow for the use of different instruments in those movements without obbligato instruments in order to reinforce the vocal parts and thus invites an individual musical approach to the challenge presented by Monteverdi's Vespers.

For use by those 6’3 and taller. Music Education. Swiss exercise ball - 75 cm. GIA Publications #6578. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-6578).

“There is no doubt in my mind about the pedagogical potency of the use of the Swiss Ball for conducting study. This simple device transfers responsibility for teaching from heretoforeused verbal explanations to a new world of instruction that uses body awareness as the primary vehicle.” — James Jordan, Learn Conducting Technique with the Swiss Exercise Ball   Traditional conducting methods rely on how conductors look––not how they feel. James Jordan’s groundbreaking Learn Conducting Technique with the Swiss Exercise Ball takes the study of conducting beyond the mechanics to a higher plane. Using the Swiss Exercise Ball, everyone from the most experienced conductor to the beginner can tie into a state of awarenessthat opens the door to increased musical expression and kinesthetic awareness. With the aid of a Swiss Exercise Ball and the Body Mapping techniques described in this book, conductors can reach a new level of artistic expression and mastery. The Swiss Exercise Ball is available in four sizes from GIA Publications, and each comes with a pump. Choose the ball size based on the height of the conductor: • 45 cm ball, under 5’ tall (G-6575) • 55 cm ball, 5’ to 5’8” tall (G-6576) • 65 cm ball, 5’9” to 6’3” tall (G-6577) • 75 cm ball, 6’3” and taller (G-6578).

Growi ng in popularity across the United States, Mass for Our Lady is a worthy and dignified setting for use at any Sunday Mass. Its melodies are intuitive and assemblies learn the setting quite quickly and easily. Warner and Kirner have joined forces and created a setting that is simple and regal at the same time. More and more parish music directors are ordering this Mass setting and finding their parishioners singing it with vigor. Arranged for SATB choir, cantor, and assembly, the solid and satisfying keyboard parts can be augmented with guitar, string trio, C instrument, and handbells. Mass for Our Lady is proving adaptable in hundreds of parishes, especially those that have access to the additional instruments, specifically on festive occasions like Easter and Christmas, and the seasons and feasts that call for a setting that soars! Parish musicians tell us that it is appropriate in many pastoral settings, from that early Sunday morning Mass with keyboard and cantor to the principal Sunday Mass when all the “bells and whistles” are put to use. Highlights: Intuitive melodies that assemblies learn quickly and easily. A simple yet regal setting. Greatly adaptable—appropri ate for Mass with keyboard and cantor and ideal for principal Sunday Mass with the addition of guitar, string trio, C instrument, and handbells. A setting that truly soars during festive occasions like Easter and Christmas.

Missa in B. Composed by Franz Joseph Haydn. CD-Reihen bei Carus: Carus Choir Coach. Carus Choir Coach (audio only). Hob. XXII:12. Duration 37 minutes. Carus Verlag #4061091. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.4061091).

Key: B flat major. Latin.

The Mass in B flat major by Joseph Haydn is known under the name “Theresienmesse.† The reason for this epithet has to this day not been clarified, but it could have to do with a performance of this Mass in Vienna in May 1800, probably in the presence of the Empress Marie Therese. Compared with Haydn’s last two masses and the large oratorios, the relatively modest orchestral scoring of the Theresienmesse is notable (for two clarinets, two trumpets with timpani, strings and organ continuo). Thus the Mass is also easily performable in those churches where music programs have only modest means at their disposal - and at the same they can have this treasure from the late Viennese classical period. Score available separately - see item CA.4061000.
