23 selected songs for piano beginners compiled edited and annotated by David Hirschberg.

For a man who quit an established recording career in order to study the fine art of making violins David Bromberg sure knows how to work a room. A veteran sideman to Dylan Ringo Starr and Jerry Jeff Walker as well as a solo performer and bandleader of more than 40 years standing the bearded and bespectacled Bromberg may have kept a low profile through the so-called MTV era. But he didn't sleep through the more recent recording industry implosion and its attendant rise of the Pod People. Rather he took his boundary busting energy back to the live stage with the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank New Jersey playing a big role in this master entertainer's gameplan.The multi-instrumentalist and musicologist has made the Count Basie Theatre a crucial pit stop in his annual tour schedule for each of the last four years ... While Bromberg may take the spotlight for an unaccompanied number or two it's his role as bandleader and raconteur that prompted the New York Times to brand him 'electrifying.' A performance by the 12-piece David Bromberg Big Band fireballs forward like a bull in a used record shop tracing its own musical logic - Bob Wills to Bob Dylan to Bo Diddley to Dave Dudley - with station stops anywhere from Sam Cooke to 'a bluegrass tribute to Ethel Merman.' Not to mention some fondly remembered originals from his vintage albums and a lot of things that you thought had been written by the Grateful Dead Patsy Cline Cab Calloway or even the Clash.Titles include: Sloppy Drunk I'll Take You Back Dark Hollow Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor Who's Lovin' You Tonight This Love Affair Tongue It Takes A Lot To Laugh It Takes A Train To Cry If You Don't Want Me Nobody's Sharon and Driving Wheel

Intermediate-level arrangements of well-known Classical and Romantic works. Par AUTEURS DIVERS / BROOKER DAVID (Arr.). In his preface to 'Piano Trios on Stage”, the arranger, David Brooker, reminds us that, just as the string quartet, the piano trio has always been one of the pillars of chamber music. In the 19th and early 20th century, it was almost like the later invention of the gramophone record, allowing larger works, in arrangement, as well as lighter pieces to be presented to small audiences, often as background music. David comments that string players have plenty of easy material to introduce them to the pleasure of making music with other instrumentalists but when it comes to piano parts these are usually written or arranged with a teacher or more advanced student in mind. David sets out to rectify that imbalance and his arrangements aim to put all three players on an equal footing. Of easy to intermediate standard, they are ideal for violinists, cellists and pianists who are now ready to try their hand at proper chamber music. The music is fun and instantly recognizable, drawing on Grieg's 'Peer Gynt”, Tchaikovsky's 'Nutcracker” and Leopold Mozart's 'Musical Sleigh Ride”./ Recueil / Violon Ou Flûte, Violoncelle Et Piano

Three Movements For Improvising Oboe, Soprano Sax, Viola, Cello. Par LIEBMAN DAVID. It is natural as we age to contemplate the finality of passing on, if not personally, then certainly as an effect from others around you whom have left this space. Having to endure the passing of family and friends is of course very trying. This is especially true when the perception is that someone 'passed before their time” though there are those of us who believe in fate implying that the Force works in its own mysterious way. In some ways I can subscribe to that concept, but for me when someone passes early, say in their fifth or sixth decade of life, it is 'before their time.” Composers often commemorate passings with music as a means to mourn and as well to celebrate the life of an individual who meant something to them. Such is the nature of this piece. Movement 1 - Past uses as source material themes I wrote for my mother Frances and father Leo when they passed - movement 2 - Present centers around a choral ('Prayer for Mike”) I wrote for my dear friend, saxophonist Michael Brecker when he passed a few years ago. This same period also saw the passing of other friends and associates whom I had known for years, all way too premature, beginning with JF Jenny Clarke and Bob Berg, Hans Gruber, Thomas Stowsand, David Baker, James Williams, Dennis Irwin, John Stubblefield. The final movement - ­Future is a requiem of sorts for all of us still here. With its improvisational character, it is meant to suggest the positive implications of living life to its fullest./ Recueil / Hautbois, Saxophone Soprano, Alto et Violoncelle

Tree Of Life by Mack Wilberg for SATB and Piano or Orchestra.Tree Of Life is an expansive setting of an evocative text by David Warner that depicts the sacred archetype of the life-giving tree through the cycle of all four seasons. The lyrics coupled with simple memorable melodies speak of spiritual planting and growth nourishment and an abundant harvest; each observation is punctuated by an 'Alleluia' as an expression of praise and gratitude. Wilberg's imaginative orchestration creates an abundant soundworld with arching woodwind phrases sweeping strings and a cacophony of Handbells that lifts theclosing alleluias skywards in celebration. This is the title track on the Tabernacle Choir's 2018 CD release.

Mack Wilberg's Christmas Is Coming for SATB and Piano 4-hands or Orchestra. This jovial and spirited carol is sure to bring a smile to many faces at Christmas-time. The traditional text is augmented with additional lyrics by David Warner and Wilberg puts the melody through a wealth of festive musical treatments. Voices range from unison up to six parts with some verses in canon and the music goes through five different keys keeping everyone on their toes! The Piano-duet part not only accompanies the choir but adds several layers of interest and colour with a bass drone glittering flourishes in the upperregister and passages evoking sleigh bells. Perfect for use as a closing piece or encore in a Christmas concert.

This anthem combines original music by Mack Wilberg words by David Warner and the celebrated hymn tune 'Old One Hundreth' which emerges from heralding voices cleverly and majestically interwoven. Hymn of Praise can be found on the CD 'Glory! Music of Rejoicing' (2012) recorded by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra on Temple Square.

for SATB with organ. This short piece sets a heartening text by David Warner long-time collaborator with Wilberg. The simple melody and homophonic choral harmonies are accompanied by warm flowing quavers in 12/8 played either by organ or by horns harp and strings.
