In this work the well-known composer presents the events of a story by the brothers Grimm in the form of very easy piano pieces. This unusual, incomplete story has inspired an unusual musical work: the young players can make up titles for the last eight pieces, and they are also encouraged to note down their thoughts and feelings inspired by the music, or express them in drawings, in the score. Diesmal stellt der bekannte ungarische Komponist und Klavierlehrer, dessen ÃÅbungs- und Vortragsstücke für Klavier überaus beliebt sind, die Handlung eines Grimm-Märchens in Form von ganz einfachen kleinen Klavierstücken dar. Das außergewöhn liche, nicht vollendete Märchen inspirierte ihn zu einem etsprechend aussergewöhnlichen Musikstück: den Titel der letzten acht Stücke können sich die Kinder selber ausdenken. Darüber hinaus werden sie auch dazu ermutigt, ihre, von der Musik inspirierten Gedanken, Emotionen in die Noten hinein zuschreiben oder zu zeichnen.

UPC: 688670220364. Latin. Genesis 20:13; Numbers 11:17.
Written for the Enchanted Voices CD, this is one of many settings of texts either from the Beatitudes (or springing from them) available from this composer. For Solo and SS divisi, a cappella, the music has a light, ethereal feeling. ââ¬ÅBeatiâ⠬ can be taken as a sort of ââ¬ÅBlessed are theyââ¬Â prefix for the movements which are not direct quotes from the Beatitudes. This movement is a unison, chant-like setting of the Latin texts for Genesis 20:13 (ââ¬ÅThou shalt do me this kindnessââ¬Â¦Ã â¬Â) and Numbers 11:17 (ââ¬ÅAnd I will take of thy spiritââ¬Â). The soloist begins and sometimes takes over from the choral voices. Mostly unison except for about ten measures (out of the 69) in two-part texture and four measures in three parts. Duration 4:39

Set for SATB voices, a soprano or tenor soloist, and piano, Goodallââ¬â¢s original text is a promise of constancy from one person to another. Through many kinds of situations and circumstances it is assured that ââ¬ÅWeââ â¢ll walk together stride by stride.ââ¬Â The choral parts are homophonic and approachable, the piano part a bit challenging (there is one section which is essentially a beautiful piano solo with the chorus accompanying on a neutral syllable). An uplifting piece suitable for school, community, or professional choruses.
