Upon hearing the words Big Sky Country, one typically thinks of the western states; Montana in particular. This piece, however, depicts any place where the sky is vast, the view expansive, and the setting natural. The elements of the music, with sweeping melodic phrases and a few key changes (G, C, D), suggest a spirit of adventure, freedom, the outdoors, and the beauty of the land. This lively piece with melodic parts for all was arranged by Susan H. Day. It uses slurs, accents, divisi, syncopation, and accidentals, and will capture the enthusiasm of players and audience! (4:10).

Widegacksda, Adidihoi, Plapperdi latterdi, and Rippelrabums. Creative nonsense words such as these have been arranged in a musically-rhythmic way by Mark Anders, a Berlin music teacher and father of two children, and made into a cheerful children's choir piece which ranges from vocal unison to babbling three-part textures. Extensively tried and tested with the children's choirs in his music school, the piece is fun not only to learn, but also infects audiences with its captivating liveliness. A homage to children's imagination! For children from 5 to 11 years.

The study in synchronicity, se sont penches dessus first achieved its final scoring after many changes. It was first composed as music to a choreography by Gabriel Hernandez: Le (!). eh ? Zovotrimaserovmeravmerouvian (dmzn !) ; se sont penches dessus, which is based on the letters of a fragment translated into French that appears in James Joyce's Finnegan's Wake. The short, static piece has existed in three versions: 1. - sspd , electronic music (normal version, a glissando from one chord of four sounds to another, employed in the electronics of No. 3) 2. - sspd sature, electronic music (intentionally distorted version of No. 1) 3. - se sont penches dessus for violin, alto flute and electronics, in which the flutist had to sing one tone of a diad It turns out that a version for two equal string instruments can better render the harmony of the piece (a tone sung simultaneously with a tone that is played on the flute yields a ring-modulated mixture of sound which is too indistinct), and thus the duo version for 2 violins was composed. A collaboration with the Kairos Quartet, Berlin, (le second tour du noye, 3rd String Quartet) led me to smuggle a viola and cello into the piece as background, in order to glue the abrupt harmonic changes discretely together. The Duo and the Quartet are definitive and equally valid versions, both of which are available separately: Duo (Carus 16.327/10), Quartet (Carus 16.327). se sont penches dessus is now literally the transposition of the translated quotation from James Joyce, in which the letters of the text se sont penches dessus establish the basic structure of the piece (the rhythmic standstill denotes the vowels of the 4 words), the letters of Zovotrimaserovmeravmerouvian indicate the fine rhythmic structure and the manner of playing (e.g., sul ponticello). Walter Feldmann. Score available separately - see item CA.1632700.

There is a Balm in Gilead is a well-known, traditional African-American spiritual. The “balm in Gilead†is a reference from the Old Testament, but the lyrics of this spiritual refer to the New Testament concept of salvation. The balm of Gilead is interpreted as a spiritual medicine that is able to heal Israel (and sinners in general). In the Old Testament, the balm of Gilead is taken most directly from Jeremiah chapter 8 v. 22: Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wounds of my [God's] people?This a cappella arrangement stays close to the simple, emotional source material. The words and the music embody weariness, resignation and hope, as the realities of slavery are met with the hope of salvation. There is a Balm in Gilead was originally part of a larger work, entitled, Mpaka simba watapo, for treble chorus, African drums and piano.  .

Keyboard World is a beginner method for keyboard that is especially suitable for older children or teenagers who are learning the keyboard and can be used with or without a teacher, for individual lessons or for group lessons. The different ways of using the keyboard are introduced: playing with or without the automatic accompaniment, reading notes and chord symbols, but also playing by ear, as well as composing and improvising. Each lesson begins with an overview of the new material which will follow. After a rhythm or aural exercise, a piece without automatic accompaniment follows (in other words, you are playing in the style of a piano) for which you will need to read notes forboth hands. These pieces can be played along with the enclosed CD. On the right-hand page, you will find pieces for playing with an automatic accompaniment - here you will need to read notes for the right hand, and read chord symbols for the left hand.At the end of each lesson, there’s an assignment: e.g. note riddles, theory questions, composition tasks or musical games. The first six lessons differ slightly from this pattern, because at the beginning a bit more time is needed to explain the details.

ISBN 9781491164433. UPC: 680160923335. Key: G major. English. Words adapted from Angels from the Realms of Glory by JAMES MONTGOMERY (1771-1854).
I've always enjoyed celebratory and rhythmic singing. I also know there's a need for this style in treble voices. The holiday season is a perfect time to create such a work.The text of The Angels' Gloria is based on the familiar Montgomery hymn with original music. This work can be easily be done as a call and answer or antiphonal setting. Try using it as a processional, too. Hearing the voices surround the audience is always exciting for everyone and a superb teaching and learning experience.The accompaniment is intentionally simple and bell-like, supporting the three-part harmonies. I've also created a B-section that is a cappella in full three-part singing, rich and full giving lots of contrast to the piece.There is so much good teaching throughout the piece, making for interesting rehearsals and a terrific performance piece. I hope this adds just the right sparkle for your Christmas or holiday program.—Greg Gilpin.

The first five items in the song cycle are settings of poems by the German Romantic poet, Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843). The 6th movement is a commentary on Hölderlin s last years, on the still relevant messages of his poetry - through the words of the 20th-century poet Paul Celan (1920-1970). The basis for this publication was the fair copy of Kurtág s Hölderlin songs, dating from the end of the 90s, which is held in the Paul Sacher Stiftung, Basel. Die ersten fünf Gesänge dieses Zyklus' sind Vertonungen des deutschen Dichters der Romantik Friedrich Hölderlin (177-1843). Der 6. Satz ist ein Kommentar des Dichters Paul Celan (192-197) über Hölderlins letzte Jahre und die noch heute zeitgemäße Botschaft seiner Gedichte. Die vorliegende Facsimile-Ausgabe geht auf Kurtágs schönes Manuskript der Vertonungen aus den späten 9-er Jahren zurück, das von der Paul Sacher Stiftung in Basel aufbewahrt wird.
