The Rite of Spring

Woodwind quintet & piano - Digital Download SKU: IZ.CMS1812 Composed by Igor Stravinsky. Arranged by Peter Facer. Score and Parts. 305 pages. Imagine Music - Digital #CMS1812. Published by Imagine Music - Digital (IZ.CMS1812). 9 x 12 in inches.This arrangement of the Rite of Spring is a project I've been working on for a number of years. It is one of my favorite pieces of orchestral music and I've greatly enjoyed the opportunity to delve deeper into the score in order to create an arrangement which, I hope, does justice to the original.The arrangement is scored for wind quintet and piano, the same as the Sextet of Francis Poulenc; the timbres and textures of the Poulenc were a very helpful inspiration when it came to scoring the Stravinsky. While a lot of musical redistribution was necessary, I have tried to keep the 'iconic' solo lines on their original instruments as mush as possible, which hopefully explains some of the doubling on auxiliary instruments.Another useful reference point for constructing the arrangement has been Stravinsky's own arrangement of the work for piano duet. It was very informative to see how Stravinsky liked to write for the piano - how chords are distributed etc., and also which melodies or harmonies from the original he decided to leave out.Though tricky, it is possible to perform this piece without a conductor. It does take a bit of rehearsing, but hopefully this will result in a very exhilarating performance!

Classical,Thriller. Brass Band. 120 pages. Matthew Nunes Music #849018. Published by Matthew Nunes Music (A0.1255512). Listen to this piece hereJessica Mitfordâ€™s incisive 1963 essay Behind the Formaldehyde Curtain is the inspiration for this piece. Mitford dissects the embalming industry while baring the ironies and inhumanities of its processes. First included in her book The American Way of Death, we follow â€œMr. Jonesâ€ from death to burial and experience all the tools, techniques, and abuses in-between. It was required reading for me as a high school junior and a text that grows more haunting with each added birthday candle.Â The piece follows â€œMr. Jonesâ€ on his journey with narrated extracts from Mitfordâ€™s essay. The opening chords are constructed from the pitches D-flat, E-flat, A-flat, and another D-flat, following Igor Stravinskyâ€™s final chord in The Rite of Spring (D-E-A-D). From here the material alternates between chromatically descending, as the corpse nears its final resting place, and ascending, while the embalmers fight to champion death.- Matthew NunesNiceville, July 2020.

2 flutes of the Same Kind - Medium - Digital Download SKU: MQ.7.0661-E Composed by Stanley M. Hoffman. Score. 5 pages. Galaxy Music Corporation - Digital #7.0661-E. Published by Galaxy Music Corporation - Digital (MQ.7.0661-E). â€œThe first melody is reminiscent of the opening of The Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky, but my theme always functions as a mantra. The flutes then meditate on that tune. A transition follows that is evocative of the opening of Symphony No. 6 by Jean Sibelius. Another transition leads to a stretto, then again to a transition, and then to yet another stretto. Next comes the first memory theme. The memory theme is borrowed from my composition Fantasypiece (violoncello and bass) and the orchestral version of it, Fantasypiece for Orchestra. A meditation ensues followed by an ornate, baroque-like variation on the memory theme. The piece closes with a final meditation.â€ -Stanley M. Hoffman.
