B-Flat Clarinet,Piano - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1420770 Composed by Alan Menken and Glenn Slater. Arranged by Yoshiko Uchida. Film/TV,Wedding. Score and part. 9 pages. FOSTERMUSIC.JP Digital Publishing #1002197. Published by FOSTERMUSIC.JP Digital Publishing (A0.1420770). Introduction In the Disney movie Rapunzel in the Tower (released in 2011), Rapunzel is imprisoned in a tower, but through her journey with Eugene, she finds her lost dreams, hopes, and courage, and sings this duet on a boat on the lake where they arrive.The scene of countless lanterns soaring in the night sky is very beautiful, and the ascending phrase that appears many times in the chorus melody seems to express the hero's never-giving-up spirit as well as the scene.I recommend this piece as an encore piece to be played at the end of a concert, praying for the future. (Yoshiko Uchida). Performance advice Express the pure and gentle melody with a clear and beautiful tone.Do not let the sixteenth note from rehearsal number G stand out only in terms of technique; sing each note carefully and play it with smooth legato.

Jingle Bells for Clarinet & Piano
Clarinet and Piano
B-Flat Clarinet,Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.548663 Composed by James…
(+)
B-Flat Clarinet,Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.548663 Composed by James Pierpont. Arranged by James M. Guthrie, ASCAP. Christmas. Score and part. 8 pages. Jmsgu3 #3408937. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.548663). Jingle Bells arranged for Bb clarinet & piano. Jingle Bells is perhaps the most famous songs in American music history. James L. Pierpont published the song as One Horse Open Sleigh in the late 1850’s. Since its introduction, people began to insist that Pierpont wrote it for a Sunday school choir. However, it seems unlikely that such a secular song would be considered appropriate during that historical period for Sunday school.Christmas Repertoire Pierpont wrote the song for the Thanksgiving holidays, but over time people began to think of it more as a Christmas song. Some choirs adopted it as part of their Christmas repertoire in the 1860s and 1870s. Jingle Bells was first recorded in 1889 on a wax cylinder. Origins No one knows where Pierpont composed the song. One theory suggests he wrote it in Medford Massachusetts in 1850. Sleigh races were certainly popular in 19th Century Massachusetts. To this day, a commemorative placard appears in Medford square claiming that it is the birthplace of Jingle Bells. Others suggest that he wrote it in Savannah, Georgia where he was an organist and music director at the Unitarian Church. This theory gains support from the copyright date of 1857. We know he was living in Savannah by then. Traffic Signals Horse-drawn sleighs are relatively quiet in the snow. Consequently, horses were usually equipped with bell-laden straps so as to avoid accidents at blind intersections. Sleigh drivers in 19th Century New England were constantly vigilant, listening for the sounds of approaching horse-drawn sleighs. The tune imitates the rhythm that the trotting horse bells produce. Social Context Jingle Bells was sung as a drinking song at local revelries: during the song folks would rhythmically jangle the ice in their glasses. A sleigh ride gave couples an opportunity to be alone together. The term Jingle bells is a poetic descriptive adjective referring specifically to the more accurate term sleigh bells. In many arrangements, sleigh bells are used to accentuate the rhythm during the song chorus. Register for free lifetime updates and revisions at www.jamesguthrie.com
