Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1379530 By Henrietta Atkin. By African-American Spirituals. Arranged by Henrietta Atkin. Christian,Easter,Religious,Spiritual. Score. 7 pages. Henrietta Atkin #964235. Published by Henrietta Atkin (A0.1379530). These two African-American spirituals (Calvary and They Crucified My Lord (And He Never Said A Mumbalin' Word)) are rarely arranged as piano preludes for church.Yet their lyrics, and thus the reflection they invoke, could hardly be more fitting for Good Friday services and masses. Composed by unknown enslaved persons, who were all too familiar with physical agony and pain, these spirituals shed an immediate light on the crucifixion and death of Jesus.Both pieces are set with lush harmonies, with a different iteration of the melody in each of their three parts. Reflective, poignant, powerful and prayerful, each arrangement is appropriate for Good Friday liturgies, as reflections during The Seven Last Words of Christ, and preludes during masses for suffering people worldwide.

Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1128839 Composed by African-American Spiritual. Arranged by John Lehrack. Folk,Religious,Sacred,Spiritual,Traditional. Score. 4 pages. GGLS Publishing #729367. Published by GGLS Publishing (A0.1128839). These two traditional spirituals work well together. The arrangement begins with the arrival of the storm, which gradually fades and passes, resolving into a thoughtful reflection on the woes caused by the tempest. The storm returns with building fury but quickly passes, once again settling into stillness. Just before the song's ending, the storm echoes off in the distance, letting us know that our troubles may not yet be over. This is the ninth arrangement in my Contemplative Spirituals for Solo Piano collection.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.972645 Composed by James Siddons. Arranged by James Siddons Music and Writings. 20th Century,Concert,Folk,Gospel,Jazz. Score. 19 pages. James Siddons Music and Writings #4350561. Published by James Siddons Music and Writings (A0.972645). About the Sonata Hymnica Series Program Note Composer James Siddons draws on the ethos of American rural hymns and spirituals to create evocations of the deeper, larger meaning of familiar church melodies. These sonatas for piano solo explore these deeper meanings in a variety of contemporary musical influences, while keeping in mind the acoustics of small rural churches of the late nineteenth century, with wooden floors and walls, high ceilings, and dimensions determined by local builders who knew how to shape a room for excellent acoustics in an age of no electricity and no microphones. These sonatas are but partly about the specific melodies and words, and mostly about their meaning in spiritual contemplation . . . and the piano, resonating, reverberant, sometimes whispering---as a sacred harp. Although these sonatas have no specific titles, the first sonata may be thought of as the Prayer Sonata, the second as the Travel Sonata, as in a spiritual journey, and the third sonata is about our greatest fear, that of being alone and without God. Performance Note The pianist must keep in mind that these sonatas are about playing the piano as much as playing a composition. Musical effects characteristic of the piano and descriptive of the memory in American culture are the substances of these piano solos. Touch is important: in many places, several dynamics are called for on the same beat. All three pedals on an American piano (damper, sostenuto, and sustain) are needed. The orchestral and cinematic structure of this music requires extensive use of three staffs, which may consist of two treble and one bass staff, or one treble and two bass staffs. In basic grand-staff passages, the two staffs may both be treble or both bass. The musical influences in these sonatas include religious song in rural America, the chromaticism and Expressionism of Arnold Schoenberg and his followers, and the tone colors of the music of Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu.DurationsSonata Hymnica No. 1 --- 15 minutes.Sonata Hymnica No. 2 --- 11 minutes. Sonata Hymnica No. 3 --- 9 minutes. About the Composer Composer, musicologist, and pianist James Siddons studied composition with Dika Newlin, a protégé of Arnold Schoenberg, and electronic music with Merrill Ellis, founder of the electronic music program at the University of North Texas, where he also earned a PhD in musicology. After a year at the University of London, where he studied musical analysis at King’s College and electronic music at Goldsmiths’ College, Siddons spent two years in Japan as a research scholar at Tokyo University of Arts, participating in the Ethnomusicology Seminar of Fumio Koizumi. Siddons has also studied theology and liturgy at the Duke University Divinity School. In addition to books and articles on contemporary music and music in Japan, Siddons was written compositions in many genres. Recordings of his piano performances are available at online streaming services. His website is www.JamesSiddons.com His performing rights organization is ASCAP.

Sonata Hymnica No. 3 draws on two melodies from the African-American experience. One, Were You There (When They Crucified My Lord)? was first published in 1899 in W. E. Barton’s Old Plantation Hymns but existed earlier as a folk hymn. It became the first spiritual to be included in a major hymnal, The Hymnal 1940 of the Episcopal Church in the U.S.A. Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child was sung by the Jubilee Singers of Fisk University from 1870 on, and was published in the Rev. Dr. Barton’s Old Plantation Hymns in 1899.

Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1256112 By Sharon Wilson. By African-American Spiritual, Charles Davis Tillman, Folk Song, and Traditional Spiritual. Arranged by Sharon Wilson and Sharon Wilson Music. Christian,Folk,Sacred,Spiritual,Traditional. Score. 8 pages. Sharon Wilson #849579. Published by Sharon Wilson (A0.1256112). Upbeat and rhythmic throughout, this cheerful medley for piano solo combines the Southern Gospel hymn Life's Railway to Heaven with two African American Spirituals, This Train Is Bound for Glory and The Gospel Train. As suggested by the lyrics, this arrangement begins with a simulation of the steady rumbling of a train as it races across the countryside. The Gospel train is coming, I hear it close at hand, I hear the car wheels rumbling, they're rumbling through the land. . . This enthusiastic train medley will inspire all to get on board because this train is bound for glory.  This arrangement is one of the 10 songs in the collection Sacred Medleys: Hymns and Spirituals, Book 2 (A Collection of 10 Medleys for Solo Piano). Visit Sharon Wilson's website: https://www.sharonwilsonmusic.com/Subscribe to her YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/@SharonWilsonMusicCover Image Credit: Pixabay.com.
