Organ - Digital Download SKU: A0.978421 Composed by Dchla. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score. 18 pages. LEONARDO ANTONIO DI CHIARA #6340063. Published by LEONARDO ANTONIO DI CHIARA (A0.978421). Questa suite d'organo è composta da quattro brani: Preludio, Andante, Scherzo e Finale. Si tratta di una breve composizione dal linguaggio tonale armonico con alcune escursioni verso toni estranei alla tonalità del sistema, ma tutto nel limite e nel rispetto dell'ascoltatore che non viene assolutamente attaccato con un'armonia troppo dissonante. Il Preludio e il Finale sono caratterizzati da piccoli elementi virtuosistici. L'andante ha un percorso molto cantabile, dove l'esecutore può mettere in risalto tutta la sua musicalità . Infine, lo Scherzo ha un carattere giocoso e scivola via senza particolari difficoltà . Nella partitura ho preferito scrivere solo le indicazioni dinamiche e lasciare libero il campo all'esecutore per la scelta dei registri e la scelta su quali manuali eseguire i brani.

8 double basses - advanced - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q6922 Composed by Bertold Hummel. This edition: score and parts. Double-Bass Library. Downloadable, Score and parts. Op. 66. Duration 23 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q6922. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6922). This four-movement piece was designed as a double quartet and, as the title implies, is like a little symphony. The varied sound is the result of harmonics, glissandos, pizzicatos, fingerboard and instrument body tapping, solo and ensemble playing. The musical palette ranges from lyrical to jazz, from pathos to absurdity. 'Sinfonia piccola' was premiered by students of the Würzburg Music Academy at the First International Double Bass Competition and Workshop in 1978 on the Isle of Man. * This work is part of the Hummel Bass Ensemble Project.

Ma cos'è? Ma dov'è? C'era già ? o è apparsa all'improvviso dentro me forse là troverò gente che mi somiglia almeno un po'.... Si chiama Fandalism siamo su Fandalism qui troverai gli artisti più simpatici non siam famosi ma abbiamo un'anima solo ascoltandoci si capirà Qui non c'è gara e non si vince nulla ma ci si guadagna in cuore e solidarietà Youtube non ti amo più Beat 100 neanche tu sai darmi il brivido che c'è quaggiù Grandi amicizie qui che si cementano distanze chilometriche si annullano storie d'amore che sbocciando ispirano perciò ho deciso che mi fermo qua C'è chi fa jazz o musica elettronica chi suona il basso o la chitarra elettrica c'è chi è geniale ma non se ne accorgerà perchè qui a Fandalism c'è l'umiltà Li adoro tutti e tutti me li abbraccerei io coccolata come non son stata mai come un folletto neli mio bosco magico vole tra note e generosità Rinnoverò l'incanto fermerò il mio tempo e ascolterò il tuo canto e ciò che mi dirai Ti voglio al mio fianco e io suonerò per te soltanto ed asciugherai tu il mio pianto e se sarò triste lo capirai Mentre sfioro tanta gente (senza toccarla mai) che è indifferente (ma tu non lo sei) corro nel niente con gli accordi miei e questa mente che non riposa mai ma tu puoi sentire quello che ho dentro la presenza tua forse può dare un senso a tutto ciò La mia diversità qui è la normalità sono accettata qui con la mia musica un cantastorie io fuori dal tempo mio vivo sospesa tra sogno e realtà Rimango attonita per il talento altrui mi sento piccola, talmente inutile poi mi incoraggiano torno a sorridere perchè qui a Fandalism c'è umanità E ci vogliamo bene e si collabora qui siamo al centro esatto della musica Doc m'incorona rosa in questo regno e poi sono felice Because the Doc says! Scrivo commenti e dò puntelli a raffica e mi preoccupo quando spariscono non c'è malignità non ci si critica e qui l'invidia no, non entrerà Vieni su Fandalism ti aspetto a Fandalism perchè qui a Fandalism ci siamo noi!!

Despite the shadows was composed at the request of Susan Narucki, who was curating the February 2014 concert of UCSD's Palimpsest Ensemble. The piece was written as a companion piece for Luigi Dallapiccola's Piccola musica notturna. It is a meditation on working through the grief of infertility. The piece is structured using a single chord, gradually built note by note in the opening section, and slowly transforming and transposing throughout the piece as the voicing expands.

Brass Ensemble Horn,Trombone,Trumpet,Tuba - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.931211 Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Alessandro Macrì. Classical,Concert,Graduation. Score and parts. 18 pages. Music Macri Editions #3685213. Published by Music Macri Editions (A0.931211). La Sinfonia n. 25 in Sol minore K 183, chiamata anche la Piccola sinfonia in Sol minore, è una sinfonia di Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composta a Salisburgo nell'ottobre 1773, poco tempo dopo aver terminato l'opera seria Lucio Silla.L'apertura a razzo di Mannheim (un passaggio melodico rapidamente ascendente che tipicamente ha una linea crescente arpeggiata) è stata citata da Beethoven nella sua prima sonata per pianoforte, come soggetto principale del primo movimento. L'Allegro con brio sostituisce l'Allegro spiritoso delle precedenti sinfonie. Si inizia con un ritmo sincopato caratterizzato da un tema breve ripetuto più volte ed infine ripreso dall'oboe in forma malinconica e delicata. In tutto il movimento il ritmo rimane serrato.Con le sue linee melodiche ad ampi balzi e i suoi vivaci soggetti musicali, questa sinfonia è caratteristica dello stile Sturm und Drang. Essa condivide alcune caratteristiche con altre sinfonie Sturm und Drang di questa epoca, ed è probabilmente ispirata dalla Sinfonia n. 39 di Joseph Haydn, anch'essa in Sol minore.

Score and parts. 6 pages. LEONARDO ANTONIO DI CHIARA #6065075. Published by LEONARDO ANTONIO DI CHIARA (A0.978414). Da tempo mi frullava nella testa l'idea di comporre un brano sviluppato su una nota sola e sono ben consapevole che può trattarsi di pura utopia. Ciò nonostante in questa piccola Meditazione l'utopia si è diradata lasciando spazio alla folle idea di sviluppare il brano. Infatti l'intera composizione si sviluppa su tale nota che si ripete incessantemente per tutta la durata del brano musicale creando un effetto molto gradevole all'ascolto.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1074352 Composed by Stanley M Hoffman. Classical,Contemporary. Octavo. 32 pages. Stanleymhoffman.com #678653. Published by stanleymhoffman.com (A0.1074352). PROGRAM NOTES As of the present writing, this choral tone poem had been gestating for over thirty years, and the concept and harmonies for it for over forty years. In the 1980s I began to work with the latter two in my brief orchestral piece Little Sea Nocturne. When reading the poetry of Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849), I am most struck by how musical they are. When recited aloud they exhibit their own rhythmic sense. I was eager to incorporate those rhythms into my music. I had long been familiar with his poem The City In the Sea and began to sketch choral passages for the present choral tone poem in the 1990s. It took me until 2022 to complete it because I required many more years of experience at my craft to do so to lead into out of the choruses. In 2012 I completed a seven-minute unaccompanied version of the choruses with music unique to and unifying it simply called The City In the Sea. In composing The City In the Sea - Choral Tone Poem, my goal was to write a piece that, while steeped in tradition, sounds unlike anything in the literature that had come before it. The result is an original hybrid work that successfully and memorably combines salient aspects of the tonal, atonal, and modal musical languages into an organic whole. George Perle coined the term “twelve-tone tonality†to describe the music of Alban Berg and composers influenced by him such as Luigi Dallapiccola. The last title of which I am aware that accomplishes anything remotely related to what I am trying to accomplish musically in this choral tone poem is the piece Paradiso Choruses by Donald Martino (1974). However, I take twelve-tone tonality in entirely other directions in my work. That the duration of The City In the Sea - Choral Tone Poem came out to be thirteen minutes seems appropriate for piece about a sunken city. Rather than write program notes that narrate how the music unfolds I will simply shout out the most memorable aspects of what careful listeners will discern: a recurring heartbeat motif; shifting polychordal harmonies; echo technique; rhythmic diminutions and augmentations; an a cappella chorus featuring those harmonies with a surprisingly memorable recuring theme on top; sensuous flute duets; string section underpinnings by way of either sustained passages or wave-like gestures; tritone-related melodies, harmonies, and tone centers; several strategically placed grand pauses; tritone-related modal-sounding passages; melodic and chord clusters, especially the two climactic ones. INSTRUMENTATION 2 Flutes (2. doubles on Piccolo) 2 Oboes (2. doubles on English Horn) 2 Bb Clarinets 2 Bassoons 2 F Horns 2 C Trumpets 2 Trombones Tuba Timpani Percussion (Gong, Bass Drum, Chimes, Glockenspiel) Harp Strings DURATION 13:00 Stanley M.
