Trance means an altered state of mind in which a person becomes capable of communicating with spirits by the means of a ritual. Echo like sounds have a significant role in the piece, they were achieved by aleatoric as well as metric materials. Our prehistoric ancestors experienced echo as a side effect of rituals they performed, basically they heard the echo of their own voices but they believed these sounds came from their ancestors. As 2013 was the 90th anniversary of Gyorgy Ligeti's birth, my piece pays respect to his musical heritage. In this regard the piece references Ligeti's artistic aesthetics and in some cases uses direct musical quotations.(Mate Bella, 2013)The work won first prize at the 2013 New Hungarian Music Forum In memoriam Gyorgy Ligeti composer's competition in chamber music category. It was premiered by Katalin Kokas and the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gergely Vajda on 25 September 2013 in Budapest.

Although my wife Elizabeth took me on a two-week Caribbean cruise as a pre-70th birthday vacation gift, two short works for string instruments emerged during the trip: Trance for solo violoncello and Sojournen for solo viola. This cello piece invokes two of the many meanings of spell: an incantation and also a short period of time. The solo is a trance-like, fleeting scherzo in a three-part through-composed design. The entire piece is constructed from very limited material stated in the opening gestures with much use made of open strings. Following an introduction, the three brief sections serve as mini-etudes for glissandi tremolandos, measured tremolos, and double-stopped rapid bowing. I think an omnipresent autumnal aural breeze was in my mind since the soloist's oration -- indeed under a spell -- never lets up, even at very low dynamic levels. This constant motion requires dexterity, finesse and an elegant control from the performer. Trance is approximately five minutes in duration, was written while at sea and completed on December 15, 2003, in Saint Johns, Antigua. The score is dedicated to the American cellist Jeffrey Zeigler.

This suite was inspired most notably by the saxophone quartets of Phil Woods and was written in a conscious attempt to wed certain stylistic elements of classical and jazz music. The players are not asked to improvise, but the piece does feature sections that sound spontaneous and freely created. The piece is difficult, but no more so than other quartets, like Glazunov and Desenclos, that are standard repertoire for this instrumentation. Talented high school and all college groups will find success working on this piece. Trance Dance, is a rhythmically grooving 12/8 feel that features the tenor and baritone saxophones.

The Phantom of the Opera is, without doubt, one of the great classics of our time. The stage production of this tale, exciting and mysterious in equal measure, has now captivated over a million theatre-goers. The phantom sings the song The Music of the Night to the beautiful Christine, who he has just kidnapped into his realm, as if entrancing her. This enchanting mood is so authentically recreated in Nico Dezaire’s sensitive arrangement for string quartet that it feels like listening to the singer perform the original version from the musical.De musical The Phantom of the Opera is zonder twijfel een van de grote klassiekers van onze tijd. De theaterversie van dit spannende en tegelijk mysterieuze verhaal heeft in de loop der tijd al een miljoenenpubliek getrokken. Met het lied The Music of the Night brengt het spook de mooie Christine, die hij zojuist naar zijn rijk heeft ontvoerd, als het ware in trance. De betoverende sfeer wordt in dit gevoelige strijkkwartetarrangement van de hand van Nico Dezaire zo authentiek overgebracht, dat het voelt alsof je luistert naar de zanger in de originele versie uit de musical.Das Phantom der Oper gehört zweifellos zu den ganz großen Musical-Klassikern unserer Zeit.

Nuptial Scene was commissioned by the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra in cooperation with the city of Jerusalem for the celebration of the fourth Testimonium, a festival to preserve Jewish heritage. The work was written in September, 1975, and premiered in Jerusalem in February, 1976, with the Jerusalem Symphony, Juan Pablo Izquierdo conducting, and Adi Etzion as soloist. It is dedicated to Recha Freier, the originator and prime mover of the festival. Nuptial Scene is based on a simple medieval poem of prenuptial instruction. Part of it is in Catalan and part in Hebrew. The poem originated in Catalonia, where a highly developed Jewish community existed until the expulsion of 1492. A mother is instructing her daughter in the ways and strategies of marriage and rejoicing with a new song for a new bride. When I initially planned the setting for this lovely poem, I realized that the age of the daughter would be about twelve, for girls in that historical period were married at puberty. This set in motion a scheme for the composition, since my oldest daughter was thirteen at that time, and I used her psyche to give me direction. When a girl of twelve or thirteen thinks of a wedding, she is completely captivated by its frills -- the dress, the party, the dancing. In her imagination, the reality of a husband or any kind of domestic responsibility would be nonexistent. Therefore, during the mother's ardent pleas, instructions, admonitions, and even innuendos, the daughter's mind wanders and dreams of dancing. Musically, the rather straight, somber rhythm and melody of the song are interrupted by an independent, faster dance speed of the bongos and by scattered fragments of an actual medieval Spanish-Jewish dance. At the point where the mother speaks of sensuous marital problems, she herself becomes excited, and in a nostalgic, dreamlike spirit -- with the use of improvised melodic lines for which only the gestural outlines are given -- she goes into a kind of rapturous trance. The daughter, however, seems unmoved, and she falls asleep. The mother calms down, puts her head on the daughter's shoulder, and quietly muses, then also closes her eyes. --Samuel Adler  .Nuptial Scene was commissioned by the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra in cooperation with the city of Jerusalem for the celebration of the fourth “Testimoniumâ€, a festival to preserve Jewish heritage. The work was written in September, 1975, and premiered in Jerusalem in February, 1976, with the Jerusalem Symphony, Juan Pablo Izquierdo conducting, and Adi Etzion as soloist.  It is dedicated to Recha Freier, the originator and prime mover of the festival.Nuptial Scene is based on a simple medieval poem of prenuptial instruction. Part of it is in Catalan and part in Hebrew. The poem originated in Catalonia, where a highly developed Jewish community existed until the expulsion of 1492. A mother is instructing her daughter in the ways and strategies of marriage and rejoicing with a “new song†for a “new brideâ€.When I initially planned the setting for this lovely poem, I realized that the age of the daughter would be about twelve, for girls in that historical period were married at puberty. This set in motion a scheme for the composition, since my oldest daughter was thirteen at that time, and I used her psyche to give me direction. When a girl of twelve or thirteen thinks of a wedding, she is completely captivated by its frills — the dress, the party, the dancing. In her imagination, the reality of a husband or any kind of domestic responsibility would be nonexistent. Therefore, during the mother’s ardent pleas, instructions, admonitions, and even innuendos, the daughter’s mind wanders and dreams of dancing. Musically, the rather straight, somber rhythm and melody of the song are interrupted by an independent, faster dance speed of the bongos and by scattered fragments of an actual medieval Spanish-Jewish dance. At the point where the mother speaks of sensuous marital problems, she herself becomes excited, and in a nostalgic, dreamlike spirit — with the use of improvised melodic lines for which only the gestural outlines are given — she goes into a kind of rapturous trance. The daughter, however, seems unmoved, and she falls asleep. The mother calms down, puts her head on the daughter’s shoulder, and quietly muses, then also closes her eyes.—Samuel Adler .

Composer Michael Albaugh says, Trancension was written in 2007 for Scotty Stepp and premiered at the North American Saxophone Congress. Composed in two parts, the opening motive sets the tone for the entire work as it grows from half step increments in the low register to convey strength and purpose. The second half is marked 'blistering' to represent the technical capabilities of the saxophone. Blurring lines and arpeggios with embedded grace notes sequences are designed to create the effect of two lines from a single instrument. Not designed for the faint of heart..

This medley is a colourful and creative foray into the pop music from our friends across the water in Holland. Peter Kleine Schaars combines four songs by four artists that have been popular both in Holland and beyond. Als de morgen is gekomen is een single en hit van de Volendamse zanger Jan Smit. Het was de eerste single afkomstig van het album Op weg naar geluk. De single werd uitgebracht rond het begin van de tweede serie GewoonJan Smit, een reallife serie. Het was de tweede single van Smit die de nummer-1-positie in de Nederlandse Top 40 bereikte. In het nummer wordt bezongen hoe Jan opstaat met een kater na een lange avond. Hij denkt terug aan die avonden realiseert zich dat het allemaal voorbij is.Het duo Nick & Simon werd bekend nadat ze veelvuldig te zien waren in de reallifesoap van hun vriend Jan Smit. Het debuutalbum Nick & Simon was een groot succes en bereikte de top10 van de Album Top 100. De eerste single Kijk omhoog, van het nieuwe album Vandaag kwam binnen op nummer 2 en is een van hun grootste hitsuccessen.Maak me gek van Gerard Joling werd geschreven door Kees Telen Jos Cové. Na een moeizame start werd het nummer opgepikt in het uitgaanscircuit. Tijdens carnaval groeide het uit tot een populair nummer. Maak me gek kreeg daarom als snel de stempel van een carnavalsplaat. Maar ook nacarnaval bleef de single populair.Rood is een hit van Marco Borsato. In Nederland was het Borsato's tiende nummer 1-hit. Het lied bestaat uit verschillende stukken met elk een ander genre. Zo is het begin in de vorm van eenballad, onderbroken door een uptempo-stuk. De hieropvolgende refreinen en coupletten bevatten trance-invloeden. Halverwege wordt dit afgebroken door riverdance-muziek en vervolgens een rustiger gedeelte met kerkorgelklanken. Na 24weken verliet Rood de Top 40, maar in de Single Top 100 stond de plaat 45 weken genoteerd. Het is de op één na langst genoteerde plaat ooit, en moet alleen de Kabouterdans van Kabouter Plop (64 weken) voor zich hoDieses Medley ist ein klangvoller Ausflug in die Popmusik unseres Nachbarn Holland.

These seven sacred songs are suitable for treble, mixed, or men's choirs, or for solo performance. The texts are taken from various Sabbath services; many are suitable for use as anthems in Christian worship. While all are easy, each has distinctive features-rhythmic extension of a phrase, shifting meters, or harmonic subtleties-which make the set rank very, very high on the simple does not have to mean stupid scale. Please, before you buy another boring dreidel song, look at these. This benediction prays for protection during the night, and peace. Its swaying rhythms in 4/4, and section sung to the syllables dai, dai, encourage the singers to experience the music very directly, in almost trance-like fashion. Unison; piano; Hebrew; Easy. Unison, piano Published by: Treble Clef Music Minimum order quantity: 8 copies.
