Richard Reed Parry 's Quartet For Heart And Breath is an innovative and original piece based on the performers' own bodily rhythms. This sheet music is for String Quartet (Violin/Violin/Viola/Cello). Richard Reed Parry is familiarto millions as the lead singer of rock band Arcade Fire, yet his foray into classical music is equally worthy of attention. Quartet For Heart And Breath is an experiment into using the performers' heartbeats and breathing to dictate the tempo. The performers are instructed to wear stethoscopes in order to listen to their heartbeats closely, while one complete breath corresponds to one bar and two heartbeats equal two crotchets. The result is a quiet and subtle piece, as each instrument has to play softly so as to be able to keep in time. The piece also has a naturally occurring dynamism in that the players' heart rates constantly change as the performance goes on, with each instrument falling in and out of sync sometimes culminating in a beautiful moment of all heartbeats matching each other. Interestingly, this unique aspect means that no performance will ever be the same, meaning to hear or play this composition will be a truly once in a lifetime experience. Quartet For Heart And Breath is a superbly one-of-a-kind composition by Richard Reed Parry . Commissioned by the Kronos Quartet, this piece makes for a wonderfully distinctive performance, with fascinating implications for the connection between the music and the body.

Pristine in its conception, this anthem is the fragile invocation of a contrite heart. The expressive ballad is a singular prayer, not for the usual blessings but for a purer life of service. Set with tuneful arches and enriching harmonies, the keyboard writing is supportive but decorative and evocative to the function of the piece. Use of a soloist brings an essential element of authenticity to the presentation. Gorgeous! Score and Parts (vc, syn) available as digital download.

While Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) modestly refers to Hear My Prayer (Hör' mein Bitten) in G Major, WoO 15, as a trifle, it is among his most popular works for chorus. On the autograph score, he inscribed the following: A sacred Solo, for a Soprano and Chorus, with Organ accompaniment, composed for W. Bartholomew, Esq., by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. William Bartholomew wrote the text, which is derived on Psalm 55, and requested that Mendelssohn set it to music. This version premiered on January 8, 1845, at Crosby Hall in London. In 1847, Mendelssohn orchestrated the work, but he passed before he could hear this version, which premiered on December 21, 1848, in Dublin. Score and parts for orchestral accompaniment available separately. This edition adds reheasal numbers that match between the score, parts, and choral score.

This entertaining medley, with its infectious driving rock feel throughout, brings together three pop favorites with a common thread: One Heart, from Céline Dion's hit album of the same name, Some Hearts, as sung by American Idol winner Carrie Underwood, and Put a Little Love In Your Heart, Jackie DeShannon's early single which was also featured in the movie Scrooged. Audiences will love it and less experienced players will be amazed at how quickly they master the arrangement. It's a winner, written to help bring out the very best from your students and perfect for Valentine's Day. Don't miss it! (2:40).
