Easy Piano - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.896074 By Walk the Moon. By Ben Berger, Eli Maiman, Kevin Ray, Nicholas Petricca, Ryan McMahon, and Sean Waugaman. Arranged by Jim Lansing. Instructional,Pop,Rock. Score. 3 pages. Jim Lansing #5362435. Published by Jim Lansing (A0.896074). Early Intermediate level arrangement in key C. Â Syncopation is simplififed for easier reading; once notes are learned, encourage player to use their ear to fix the rhythms to match the artist's recording. Off-beat entrances are preceeded by LH playing on the beat to help player feel the rhythmic pulse.RH requires comfort with first inversion fingering (1-2-5) and has frequent movement accomplished by crossing fingers over the thumb and moving to new positions on rests. Â LH plays 5th & 6th intervals in first half of song and then lands in F position that is stable until the end of the arrangement.

Eagles' Victory Song

Easy Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1180746 By Dirk Quinn Band. By Charles Borrelli and Roger Courtland. Arranged by Marcony Carvalho. 20th Century,Classical,Historic,Patriotic,Pop. Score. 1 pages. Zedas Couve #780613. Published by Zedas Couve (A0.1180746). The Eagles' Victory Song was the creation of Charles Borrelli and Richard Courtland Harrison, a Washington, D.C. music teacher and arranger for jazz guitarist Charlie Byrd. The song was mistakenly credited to R. Courtland by the Copyright office and in various editions of Eagles programs from the late 1950s through the 1960s.In 1963, Jerry Wolman purchased the Philadelphia Eagles. Wolman was a sports fan growing up and loved hearing the Washington Redskins' fight song Hail to the Redskins at games. Spawning from his admiration for the Redskins' song, Wolman searched for musicians to implement a team song for the Eagles, and founded The Philadelphia Eagles' Sound of Brass band in 1964. The group included 200 musicians and dancers, and was led by Arlen Saylor, who was appointed as the Eagles' entertainment director in 1966 and is credited with penning an arrangement of the fight song that the band played at home games during halftime in the 1960s. Wolman's push to popularize the fight song flew under the radar, however, and in 1969 the Sound of Brass band was discontinued.The song came back into light in 1997, when Bobby Mansure, founder of an unofficial Eagles pep band, asked team management to allow the band to play in the parking lot during home games. Management gave Mansure's pep band an audition, allowing them to play at two preseason games to gauge fan reaction. The song went over so well that Mansure and the band retained a permanent position as the official Philadelphia Eagles Pep Band.In 1998, following Mansure's reintroduction of the song, Eagles management attempted to rebuild its popularity among fans by changing some aspects of the song: they modified the key, changed the opening lyric from Fight, Eagles Fight to Fly, Eagles Fly, and re-marketed the song with that as the title. In addition, they appended the popular E-A-G-L-E-S chant—which had emerged in the 1980s—to the end of the song. While management planned to play the song throughout the 1998 season, the Eagles' poor performance that year caused them to hold off reintroducing the song until the following year. The Eagles fared better during their 1999 season, and subsequently, the fight song was played after every score.

Easy Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.942968 Composed by Jan-Frerk Burmester. Children,Folk,Instructional. Score. 1 pages. Jan-Frerk Jelend #3916947. Published by Jan-Frerk Jelend (A0.942968). ABOUT THE PIECEThis is an easy piano piece (level 1-2) that I composed for my pupils some years ago. The ABA-Form with A minor and F major as harmonic poles is inspired by Robert Schumann's famous piano piece Der wilde Reiter (The Wild Horseman). The easy accompaniment with the fifth as main interval gives Trotting Horses an archaic sound, which reminds a little bit of a medieval dance.According to my experience, the piece is quickly learned, and children enjoy playing it very much!

Piano Solo, Narrator - Advanced - Digital Download Composed by Claude Debussy/Robert Orledge. 20th Century, Impressionistic, Recital, Spoken Word. Score. 30 pages. Published by Musik Fabrik Music Publishing
I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the celebrated pianist Nicolas Horvath for enthusiastically bringing my Debussy works to public attention in their solo piano formats, both through his recent recitals across France and through this Naxos Grand Piano release (GP822). In some cases these are true piano pieces (like Toomai des éléphants), in others they are piano reductions of orchestral scores (like Fêtes galantes), while in others they are piano solos in their own right that also exist in orchestral versions (as in the incidental music for Le Roi Lear). Needless to say, most of these tracks are world première recordings, and this is certainly true of A Night in the House of Usher and its companion piece Un Jour affreux avec Le Diable dans le beffroi (?A Dreadful Day with the Devil in the Belfry?) which I arranged specially for Nicolas in November 2018 as a virtuosic, almost Lisztian paraphrase-fantasy. To remind us of the plot as the dramatic scenes unfold, Un Jour affreux avec le Diable dans le beffroi, like the start of No-ja-li) has a narrator (spoken in French by Florient Azoulay on the Grand Piano recording): [After an overture rising from the underworld, with a polka and a citation of a chldren?s folksong Savez vous plantez les choux?, a carillon rings out]: Hearing it, the Dutch villagers start to count, with the bells of the belfry / 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 8, 9, 11, and 12 / Perfect! / 13!?!/ The bell rang 13 times / 13! / The Devil is here where the clock should be! / Damn! / The bells are cracked. / The Devil laughs fit to burst / He pulls from the pocket of his coat, a small dancing master?s violin / ?My God!? says the devil ? and he tunes his violin slowly / The Devil leads the villagers in a fantastic and relentless jig [making jokes at the expense of concertos by Beethoven, Brahms and Tchaikovsky] / The Devil directs the villagers towards the canal ? where he jumps to the other side, laughing all the time / The villagers try to imitate him, but they fall into the water. / [In Part 2] the villagers are transported to a hedonistic and lively Italian village. They are similarly transformed: the men have crooked hats ? the women have wide open bodices! They dance a mad Tarantella / 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 13 / shouting ?Hey there! (Hola?) / Jean, the young hero, makes a fervent prayer to God against the Devil / The prayer is answered and the bell again rings normally! / The expression of the Devil changes: he shudders! / Everything goes black / The devil disappears in a brief red glow ? / And the carillon and the bells chime as usual / 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 / Perfect! / But the Devil?s grinning face ap- pears once again where the clock should be ? briefly
