Picture a circus, with creepy clowns, an evil ringmaster, and fierce animals, and you get Dark Shadows by Ryan Meeboer: a fun, yet twisted piece filled with interesting melodies and animated accompaniments. The opening sets the dark tone of the piece through a simple melody played above a drone, accompanied by an interesting use of percussion before moving into the driving, circus style music. (2:45).

Orchestra violin 1, violin 2, violin 3, viola, cello, bass - Grade 2.5

SKU: CF.YAS242

Composed by Susan Day. Yas. Set of Score and Parts. Duration 2 minutes, 42 seconds. Carl Fischer Music #YAS242. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS242).

ISBN 9781491164945. UPC: 680160923854. Key: D minor.

This piece, written in 3/4 time throughout, evokes visions of dancing figures, their faces unrecognizable in the shadows created from the play of light at dusk. Moving from D minor to E minor, the eerie keys and accidentals provide intriguing effects. Teachable moments abound for low first finger on A and E and some high third finger in the upper strings, augmented intervals and extended patterns in all instruments, as well as slurs and hooked bowings. This piece can be performed any time of the year, or as an autumn or Halloween feature.

Uses: Good Friday, Holy Week

Scripture: Isaiah 53:3; John 1:11; Matthew 26:21-22; John 3:16-17; Galatians 2:20

A moving choral lamentation for the crucified Christ is presented in this anthem for Good Friday. From the shadows of Golgotha, this poignant paean weeps with emotion through expressive music and cries of “Kyrie Eleison.” The anthem is dependent on two soloists that soar above the dramatic choral. The classic chorale “Ah, Holy Jesus” is a sensitive ending to the piece. StudioTrax CD has 3 tracks - Accompaniment, Split, Performance.
