Flute,Piano - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1467607 Composed by Public Domain. Arranged by Carolyn Kelley. Christian,Praise & Worship,Religious,Sacred,Spiritual. Score and part. 5 pages. Carolyn Kelley #1045883. Published by Carolyn Kelley (A0.1467607). This work is designed for the advanced flutist, either a professional, or a college student. There are challenges in technical fluidity and extreme registers of the instrument, as well as a lot of the musical expression is left up to the performer. The piano part may also have some challenges.Even the most advanced musicians should be able to praise their Lord to the full extent of their abilities, rather than being limited to extremely basic arrangements that showcase little of the talents and skills God blessed them with.

Instrumental Duet Flute,Instrumental Duet,Piano - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.835162 Composed by Cody Weinmann. Christmas,Concert. Score and parts. 7 pages. Cody Weinmann #6121307. Published by Cody Weinmann (A0.835162). This little Christmas tune takes some cues from the famous Christmas bells. The C-G-A-E theme weaves its way throughout the texture in various guises from legato and striking quarter-note passages between the solo flute and the piano to softer instances over longer note durations. Several eighth and sixteenth note runs will give the flautist a run for their money. All of the frills in this piece are to make this a happy and festive piece for all who play it.DedicationThis work is dedicated to a dear friend from my high school days, Sarah Aplet. Itis an honor to write this piece for her.Cody Weinmann is a prolific composer of many different types and genres of music.These can range from works for solo piano and solo instrument with piano accompaniment to full band, orchestra and choral works. He also is an avid writerof original music and arrangements for young people, including his own pianostudents.He also loves to write sacred praise and worship music to glorify God and our SaviorJesus Christ. He believes in writing music to bring people to Him through music andlyrics.Cody self-publishes through Musicaneo.com (http://www.codyweinmann.musicaneo.com) as well as on Sheet Music Plus.For more, you can check him out on his various social media links below.

Flute,Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.548741 By Cat Stevens. By Cat Stevens. Arranged by James M. Guthrie, ASCAP. Rock. Score and part. 11 pages. Jmsgu3 #3415207. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.548741). Very strong arrangement for Easter. Duration: 2:48. 84 ms. Score: 7 pg. Solo part 1 pg. piano part 3 pg. Morning Has Broken is a popular and well-known Christian hymn first published in 1931. It has words by English author Eleanor Farjeon and was inspired by the village of Alfriston in East Sussex, then set to a traditional Scottish Gaelic tune known as Bunessan [1] (it shares this tune with the 19th century Christmas Carol Child in the Manger[2]). It is often sung in children's services and in Funeral services.[3] English pop musician and folk singer Cat Stevens included a version on his 1971 album Teaser and the Firecat. The song became identified with Stevens due to the popularity of this recording. It reached number six on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, number one on the U.S. easy listening chartin 1972,[4] and number four on the Canadian RPM Magazine charts. The hymn originally appeared in the second edition of Songs of Praise (published in 1931), to the tune Bunessan, composed in the Scottish Islands. In Songs of Praise Discussed, the editor, Percy Dearmer, explains that as there was need for a hymn to give thanks for each day, English poet and children's author Eleanor Farjeon had been asked to make a poem to fit the lovely Scottish tune. A slight variation on the original hymn, also written by Eleanor Farjeon, can be found in the form of a poem contributed to the anthology Children's Bells, under Farjeon's new title, A Morning Song (For the First Day of Spring), published by Oxford University Press in 1957. The song is noted in 9/4 time but with a 3/4 feel. Bunessan had been found in L. McBean's Songs and Hymns of the Gael, published in 1900.[5] Before Farjeon's words, the tune was used as a Christmas carol, which began Child in the manger, Infant of Mary, translated from the Scottish Gaelic lyrics written by Mary MacDonald. The English-language Roman Catholic hymnal also uses the tune for the James Quinn hymns, Christ Be Beside Me and This Day God Gives Me, both of which were adapted from the traditional Irish hymn St. Patrick's Breastplate. Another Christian hymn, Baptized In Water, borrows the tune. -Wikipedia
