A new accompaniment for every season There's definitely more than spring in the air in this new publication by Ulrike Wohlwender, since the collection also comprises songs for summer, fall and winter as well. Didactically, it follows the successful concept of the Christmas book Was soll das bedeuten (EB 8747). The strikingly illustrated book grows with its contents: the accompaniments begin very simply and reach a level of medium difficulty. Particular care has been placed on the accompanying modules that are intended to help pianists develop their part freely. The book can be used in a variety of ways: for private lessons, training with a partner, or for group lessons. The selection also offers songs in different languages from various countries for every season. All the songs can be heard on the accompanying CD recorded by Ulrike Wohlwender (piano) and Regine Neumuller (voice). Here's the link to the immer wieder neu begleiten homepage.The book 'grows' with its contents: accompaniments from very simple to medium difficulty.

The cantata was written for the Sunday after Christmas and was performed for the first time on 30 December 1714 in the Schlosskirche Weimar. Nowadays the last aria is often performed during weddings. Exactly 300 years later, it is now being published in a practical Urtext edition. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.3115200.

In the original recorder version, the collection Advent, Advent! brought lots of fun and enjoyment to many children and adults. Now, Ulrike Wildenhof has translated the compelling concept for her instrument, which will make the eyes of young violinists shine during the Christmas season. All songs can be played in the first position. The book begins with an introduction to the individual fingers, then come changes of strings, portato and legato. To give beginners a chance to play with accompaniment, a second violin part for more advanced players has been included and the piano part has been kept simple. Chord symbols for the guitar have also been provided. Three extra pages of music were added to encourage players to practice, listen, write music and even color. The three authors wish all young musicians lots of fun playing this Christmas music!The level of difficulty ranges from very easy to easy, and even utter beginners can already play the first songs with two, three or four notes..

The series Morgen kommt der Weihnachtsmann has been conceived for making music together in the Christmas season. Special emphasis is placed on duet playing with 2 identical instruments: with 2 violins (ED 5475), 2 violas (ED 7935), 2 violoncellos (ED 5548), 2 descant recorders (ED 7934), and 2 flutes (ED 8026). Since words have been set to the upper part (melody part), the obvious thing to do would be to perform the pieces with voice and accompaniment. The settings are easy so that even musicians with little practice can play along.This series includes two editions for piano which can be combined with all instrumental volumes: In addition to the known very easy edition for piano beginners with mainly two-part settings in five-note range ('very easy', ED 5325), there is for the first time a more sonorous two- or three-part edition for moderately advanced players ('easy to intermediate', ED 22507). This new edition is ideal for accompanying the instrumental parts.

Gifted composer Pepper Choplin is widely celebrated for creating refreshingly different, original anthems that resonate with traditional folk qualities. Inspired by his best-selling Appalachian-style anthem of the same name (10/3751L), Choplin has crafted a stylized Christmas cantata that is unique, unusual, and yet somehow very comfortable and compatible. It is easily accessible to smaller choirs while also being musically intriguing for larger programs—the perfect way to celebrate the simplicity of Christmas! The instrumentation—a few winds, strings, percussion, and the option of several authentic Appalachian instruments—establishes an undeniable blend of simplicity and strength. Optional scriptural narrations are provided, and the available accompaniment CD will allow churches of all sizes and means to experience this distinctive seasonal presentation. Includes SATB and SAB performance recordings.

Included on the 2015 Christmas album Comfort and Joy, Hallelujah, I Believe is actually Jim Brickman's favorite song from the record. Featuring Broadway singer Leslie Odom, Jr., the tune is about remembering what is important about the Christmas season amid the commercialism that accompanies it every year. This Original Sheet Music Edition presents a piano/vocal/guitar arrangement of the song, complete with artwork and lyrics.
About Original Sheet Music Edition

Every effort has been made for the arrangement to be playable on the piano and to sound as close to the original recording as possible. If there are lyrics, a separate vocal line is used so that singers can easily sing along, and all lyrics as heard on the original recording are always included. Almost all arrangements are written in the original key in which they were recorded.

Simon Laks (1901-1983), who came from an assimilated Jewish family in Warsaw, composed arrangements of both Jewish and Christian folk songs which captivate by their subtle piano writing. His Eight Jewish Folk Songs from 1947, composed two years after his liberation from the Auschwitz death camp, are classics of the repertoire. Another real gem is his version of the Polish Christmas carol Jezusek (Little Jesus), which was rediscovered only recently as part of the complete recording of Laks' songs. Still very popular in Poland today, the pastorale with the original title Oj maluski, maluski originates from the Podhale region of southern Poland. Laks' piano accompaniment is especially enchanting, with its canonically treated secondary part and cleverly used chromatic suspensions and passing notes, which allude to the future suffering of Christ without taking away any of the melody's warmth. HolgerGroschopp, who has been studying the works of Simon Laks as an interpreter and arranger for a long time, let himself be inspired by Laks' artful arrangement and wrote the present free arrangement as a 'song without words'.

Asked to contribute a carol to the already rich Finnish Christmas repertoire, music I've sung myself for many years, I was very aware of the things that mark the season for my adopted countrymen: peace, stillness, the cold landscape and home. When I came across Ester Ahokainen's gentle poem, so focused around these images, it seemed like providence. The resulting song is modest and warmly modal, departing only a little from Finnish tradition: a lingering dissonance here, a moment of quiet sentiment held slightly longer expected there. Like the words, the music opens outward in thanks at the end. Aattoilta was composed for the Helsinki Chamber Choir Christmas CD recording, and is dedicated to them.
