Arranged by Fiona Alice Hickie. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Latin. 17 pages. Fiona Alice Hickie #1001228. Published by Fiona Alice Hickie (A0.1419806). A piece for brass quintet based on the poem by the same name. It is a slow piece is a South American style.Based on the poem: Lyrics: 1. My roots once clung to the earth, The wind is calm the river still. As if nothing else survives. My world is empty, am I alive? From my limbs a fruit was plucked, Within its sheath my heart was tucked. Its seeds contained my unknown future, Inside a flesh so sweet and pure. 2. Would my seeds find a place to fall? Nice fertile ground so they'd grow tall. Or would they find some barren ground. Where no love or nurture can be found? Without the fruit my limbs were bare. An old tree nearby just stood and stared. Why should it stop and help the tree Who let its fruit be taken from thee. 3. About the charmer who took the fruit? Should he help to make them grow? Instead he walked right off the land. With barely a wave of his hand. He bit the apple as he walked away. Enjoying its flesh but did not stay. No care at all for the damage heâ€™d done He took the heart from his loved one. 4. So grow another fruit you say. And yes that would be the logical way. But some trees grow abundant fruit. Small and nice without dispute. Others instead grow one to perfection. Round and sweet, on close inspection. But once itâ€™s gone then that is all. Then no more shall ever fall. 5. I sit here on the barren hill, The wind is calm the river still. As if nothing else survives. The world is empty no soul survives. Dedicated to Ben van den Akker.

Brass Ensemble,Brass Quintet Horn,Trombone,Trumpet,Tuba - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1147711 Composed by Traditional French Melody. Arranged by Todd Marchand. Christian,Christmas,Holiday,Sacred,Traditional. Score and parts. 16 pages. Con Spirito Music #747929. Published by Con Spirito Music (A0.1147711). â€œThe Huron Carolâ€ is the popular name for a Christmas song written in the language of the Wendat, an indigenous people of Canada â€” their name meaning â€œpeople of the islandâ€ or â€œdwellers on a peninsulaâ€ â€” nicknamed â€œHuronâ€ (â€œboar's headâ€) by French explorers and traders due to the bristly hairstyle of Wendat men.The song began as a tool for teaching and converting the Wendat to Christianity, and it was likely written in the early 1640s by the French Jesuit missionary, Jean de BrÃ©beuf. In Wendat, the song is titled â€œJesous Ahatonnia,â€ which means â€œJesus is Born.â€ The song's melody is based on a traditional French folk song, â€œUne Jeune Pucelleâ€ (â€œA Young Maidâ€). Jean de BrÃ©beufâ€™s lyrics present the Nativity story using images and ideas that would have been familiar to the Wendat. Angels are â€œspiritsâ€ and â€œsky peopleâ€; the Magi (wise men) are â€œelders,â€ and as an act of reverence they oil Jesusâ€™ scalp, a practice Wendat people would have recognized. Today, â€œThe Huron Carol'sâ€ most well-known lyrics, beginning â€œ'Twas in the moon of winter-time,â€ were written by Canadian poet Jesse Middleton and published in 1927 in a small illustrated book titled â€œThe First Canadian Christmas Carol.â€Middletonâ€™s text is not a translation, but a complete rewriting of â€œJesous Ahatonniaâ€ for English speakers, and bears almost no relation to the original Wendat text. Middleton relied on stereotypes, critics say, painting a picture of an indigenous Nativity in a â€œlodge of broken bark,â€ with â€œhunter bravesâ€ replacing shepherds, and â€œgifts of fur and beaver peltâ€ delivered by â€œchiefs from far.â€ Still, the carol has long been popular, perhaps in part due to its refrain, â€œJesus your King is born, Jesus is born. In excelsis gloria!â€ and its pairing with the easily singable â€œUne Jeune Pucelleâ€ tune.This arrangement for brass quintet takes a contemplative, lyrical approach, featuring rich harmonies to the chant-like tune and contrasts in dynamics and tempo that evoke both the quiet peace and solemnity accompanying the birth of Christ.Â©Copyright 2022 Todd Marchand / Con Spirito Music (ASCAP).
