Choral Choir (SAB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.945405 Composed by Stephen Foster. Arranged by Peggy Carter. Folk,Traditional. Octavo. 10 pages. Peggy Carter #5889603. Published by Peggy Carter (A0.945405). This old song sounds NEW when it uses unexpected chord changes. It starts on a D chord, and ends on a D chord, but its what happens in between that makes this arrangement interesting. The hammer dulcimer accompaniment adds its own unique sound quality. The ranges are within the reach of an upper-level elementary choir through high school choral groups. As a piece of Americana this is a program piece appropriate for general audiences. (The hammer dulcimer was a popular instrument in 19th Century America, as evidenced by advertisements seen in the Sears Roebuck and Montgomery Ward catalogues, and by the publication of instruction books throughout the 1800s and early 1900s. In fact, the instrument enjoyed a small burst of widespread acclaim due to its being a favorite of Henry Ford, and its inclusion in Henry Ford's Old Fashioned Dance Orchestra.)

Score and parts. 3 pages. Peggy Carter #5775995. Published by Peggy Carter (A0.945387). This old fiddle tune is perfect for the dulcimer, but the key of G is more accessible on the hammer dulcimer than the original key of A. Variations on the original tune are specifically appropriate for hammer dulcimer. This exciting arrangement is for Intermediate 2 or Advanced players, and would be enjoyed by ANY audience. Fits the Bluegrass genre and also Old Time lovers. It would be a good competition piece.

Published by Carl Hammer (A0.942836). Man-O'-War derives its primary melody from the old sea chanty Blow the Man Down. This Caprice takes that tune, tosses it about in the wind, submerges it under the waves, dances with it on the shore, and vigorously transforms it into something wild, joyful - and a bit dangerous.

Children,Country,Folk,Traditional. 18 pages. Carl Hammer #3602127. Published by Carl Hammer (A0.942831). The dance like character and jolly melody, along with silly and sometimes edgy lyrics, helped popularize this classic American folk song. Although attributed to Daniel Decatur Emmett, first published in 1843, the origins remain obscure. This violin duet should encourage toe tapping and perhaps even a little dancing. 2018 Instrumental Arranging Contest Entry.

Sonata Hymnica No. 7 - Score Only

(+)
Small Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1033406 Composed by James Siddons. 20th Century,Contemporary,Praise & Worship,Sacred,Traditional. Score and parts. 36 pages. James Siddons Music and Writings #637186. Published by James Siddons Music and Writings (A0.1033406). The Sonata Hymnica series by composer-pianist James Siddons explores the ethos of American rural hymns and spirituals to create evocations of the deeper, larger meaning of familiar church melodies and their words. These sonatas are but partly about the specific melodies and words, and mostly about their meaning in spiritual contemplation . . . and the piano, resonating, reverberant, at times whispering---as a sacred harp. In Sonata Hymnica No. 7, which calls for a soprano soloist, liturgical dancers, and two pianos (4 hands), three 19th-century hymns (words and music) serve as core material from which the music is developed. Movement I, “Climbing Higher,†is based on the African American spiritual “We Are Climbing Jacob’s Ladder.†The sustained chords, open harmony, and hammer-stroke rhythm evoke the ascent of a mountain climber. Movement II, “The Solid Rock,†is based on the hymn “My Hope is Built on Nothing Less†(1834) . The soprano sings brief lines from the hymn, interspersed with long passages for the pianos (only) that explore many tonal and rhythmic qualities of the original hymn tune. The driving harmony, albeit in duple meter, makes this the scherzo movement of this sonata. Movement III, “On Snowy Wings,†is based on “O Come, Angel Band†by the New England Methodist preacher Jefferson Hascall (1807-1887). In addition to the soprano singer, the appearance of liturgical dancers as angels with “snowy wings†brings this old hymn into the 21st century. Performance duration: 16 minutes.
