C Instrument - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1493763 Composed by Joseph (Dp) Young, Ray Henderson, and Samuel Lewis. Arranged by Teresa Young. 20th Century,Film/TV,Pop. Lead Sheet / Fake Book. 2 pages. Teresa Young #1070426. Published by Teresa Young (A0.1493763). Teresa Young's lead sheet for this infectious ditty is part of her lifelong song collector pursuit, toward giving great old songs new life rather than being part of allowing them to die out. Most popular in the 1920s, it was recorded many, many times, and was used in the 1974 movie The Great Gatsby. Then and now, its joyful, fun-loving vibe gets smiles widening and feet tapping. Enjoy, and pass it on!

C Instrument - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1097054 Composed by Frank Meyer. A Cappella,Christian,Praise & Worship,Religious,Spiritual. Lead Sheet / Fake Book. 1 pages. Frank Meyer #701008. Published by Frank Meyer (A0.1097054). Since the year 1984 many people meet at the end of the year in Obermarchtal at the Danube/Donau to sing and make music together. Towards the end of the year 2020 it became very clear that the Corona virus would make it impossible to meet first time since more than 35 years. When I realized that, some words an a melody came to my mind and I wrote this canon for the participants of the Neustifter Musikwoche (www.neustifter-musikwochen.de). We met in some video conferences, talked and had fun in spite of the situation. And I gave this song to the participants to sing it and record the own singing. You can hear and see the result in the youtube channel form the Neustifter Musikwochen. Faith, hope an love are the them of the song, according to 1Kor 13,13. Its intention is not to lose hope and confidence, not even in times like these. Also in 2021 we could not meet singing together in Obermarchtal. But were looking forward hopefully. Note: The edition from 2021 published her contains a few small changes compared to the recording from 2020. ...... Seit 1984 treffen sich jährlich zum Jahreswechsel musikbegeisterte Menschen aller Altersstufen im Bildungshaus Kloster Obermarchtal. direkt oberhalb der schönen Donau gelegen, um gemeinsam zu musizieren. Als gegen Ende des Jahres 2020 klar wurde, dass aufgrund der Corona-Pandemie die Musikwoche zum Jahreswechsel erstmals seit über 35 Jahren nicht würde stattfinden können, kamen mir in Anlehnung an die Worte des Paulus im ersten Korintherbrief (1Kor 13,13) die Worte und die Melodie dieses Liedes in den Sinn, und ich schrieb diesen Kanon. Statt in Obermarchtal trafen wir uns einige Tage lang immer wieder in Videokonferenzen, feierten sogar eine kleine Andacht zu Silvester. Ich schickte Noten und die Aufnahme einer Klavierbegleitung an die Teilnehmer, und einige sangen das Lied und schickten mir ihre Aufnahmen. Es entstand eine virtuelle Choraufnahme, die im Youtube-Kanal der Neustifter Musikwochen zu sehen und zu hören ist. Auch im vergangenen Jahr 2021 konnten wir uns nicht zum gemeinsamen Singen treffen. Aber wir blicken weiterhin hoffnungsvoll nach vorne, glauben an die Zukunft, an das Leben und an die Liebe. Anmerkung: Die hier veröffentlichte Notenausgabe von 2021 enthält gegenüber der Aufnahme von 2020 am Ende ein paar kleine Änderungen.

When released in 1975, it enjoyed huge popularity with both country and pop audiences. The song is about a veteran artist who's aware that he's more than paid his dues during his career ... but is still surviving, and someday, he'll shine just like a rhinestone cowboy. After Campbell's death in August 2017, Rhinestone Cowboy charted on the Country Digital Song chart at No. 12. As of August 2017, the song had been downloaded more than 368,000 times in the digital era in the United States.

Thanks, John. You Are Not Alone is a song by the American singer-songwriter Michael Jackson from his ninth studio album, HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I (1995). An R&B ballad, You Are Not Alone was written by American singer R. Kelly for Jackson in response to difficult times in his own personal life. Kelly sent a demo tape to Jackson, who liked the song and decided to produce it with him in his Chicago studio. Jackson's interest in the song was also linked to events in his personal life. The music video, which featured Jackson and his then-wife Lisa Marie Presley, featured scenes of semi-nudity. You Are Not Alone received generally positive reviews and was the recipient of Grammy and American Music Award nominations. It holds a Guinness World Record as the first song to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, and was certified platinum by the RIAA. It also topped the charts in Austria, Belgium, France, Ireland, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

John Fries #950276. Published by John Fries (A0.1365939). TYPE JOHN FRIES IN THE SEARCH BAR TO SEE ALL I HAVE TO OFFER! The original 1960 production, directed by Moss Hart with orchestrations by Robert Russell Bennett and Philip J. Lang, ran on Broadway for 873 performances, winning four Tony Awards. It starred Richard Burton as Arthur, Julie Andrews as Guenevere, and Robert Goulet as Lancelot. It spawned several notable productions including four Broadway revivals and a 1967 film adaptation. The 2023 Broadway revival features a revised book by Aaron Sorkin. The musical has become associated with the Presidency of John F. Kennedy, which is sometimes called the Camelot Era, because of an interview with Jackie Kennedy in which she compared her husband's presidency to King Arthur's reign, specifically mentioning his fondness for the musical and particularly the title song's closing lyrics, which end Camelot.

Arranged by Alastair Lodge. 151, 153, 162, Folk, Renaissance. Lead Sheet / Fake Book. 38 pages. Wold Meridian #727149. Published by Wold Meridian
Chording to the Dance Masters is a selection of dance tunes that were collected originally between about 1500 and 1620. Printing made many of these tunes popular throughout Europe during these times, some of them composed by the printer/publishers themselves, but many more of them existed previously as rustic dance tunes or popular chansons. The works were originally published to be played by three to five instrumentalists, with no particular instruments specified. They suited consorts or “choirs” of instruments that were depicted in the illustrations of Agricola, Mersenne and most notably Praetorius and are now preserved in museums around the world.<br> <br> Many editions exist in the 3, 4 or 5 parts as originally published, and these are an absolute joy to perform from, where the interweaving parts create interesting harmonies that demonstrate the skills of these renaissance composer/arranger/publishers. Playing with modern reproductions of the early instruments will recreate textures and sounds unique to this period. However, not everyone is lucky enough to either own these instruments or else have contact with others with whom they could form ensembles. This book aims to widen the experience out to those who would like to play these tunes on their own or with the accompaniment of a guitar, keyboard or other available chordal instrument. Fake books abound for those who wish to play Jazz, Folk, Classical and Popular music where the melody is annotated with chords so that players can access these tunes in their own way. As far as I am aware, this has not often been done for the player who wishes to busk their way through music of the Renaissance period.<br> <br> I have attempted to include all the chords implied by the polyphonic parts of the original publications, simply because it is in the transitions of the harmonies under the melodies where the genius of the original arranger/publisher resides. Those who go on to explore the original versions may look forward to the way in which each line presents the player with intrinsically beautiful counter melodies.<br> <br> At first, the rapidity of chord changing can be a bit daunting, so I have marked out what I consider to be the essential chords for accompaniment in boxes. Playing just these will provide adequate accompaniment, whilst leaving the more adventurous scope to enhance their performance by referencing some of the other chords. You can hear the chording arrangements together with the original 3, 4 or 5 part versions of all 44 pieces on a YouTube playlist which has been made as a companion to this volume at<br> <br> https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYRWH2nycMkMoIoEYEMVPa_EXY6NVDpNS<br> <br> As well as the solo or player in a duo, this book would also be of value for someone who is used to reading chords rather than melody lines wishing to join in with a renaissance consort. The selection I have chosen represents quite a few of the “standards” that have become regularly played since the revival of renaissance music in the late 1960s. It is hoped that should this volume prove popular, companion volumes with all the parts provided for the same pieces could make essential repertoire for the budding renaissance dance consorts of the future.
