This catchy tune lets the band cut loose with a strong jump beat powered by an old school bass line and active percussion. A dynamic introduction leads to the melody presented by the trumpets and then repeated by the rest of the band. The solo tom-tom leads to the give-and-take middle section that builds into a repeat of the melody. A short coda section provides a big finish to this exciting piece. Careful attention to articulation markings will add even more energy to the rhythmic patterns throughout the piece. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

Helmut Lachenmann wrote his Toccatina for the volume Studien zum Spielen Neuer Musik fur Violine (EB 8356) edited by Igor Ozim and published by Breitkopf & Hartel in 1986. No one could foresee back then that this Etude for violin solo would take on an active life of its own. The piece was first seen as a model of new string techniques, as David Alberman explained in his 1998 essay Beyond the Conventional, published in the journal The Strad. But in the meantime, Lachenmann's Toccatina, which truly does abound in unusual techniques, appears increasingly often on the programs of international festivals of contemporary music. This does justice to the work, which is, in effect, a delicate, fragile and introverted recital piece. Its title contains the word toccare (Italian for to touch); the composer took this definition literally and transposed it impressively into his piece.

Gottw ald has a knack for bringing contemporary classics to multi-part unaccompanied chorus of voices. For Webern's Im Sommerwind, he has taken all of the singable bits and assembled them into a surprisingly articulate and sensible transcription. With the voices approximating instrumental melodic lines in this lush, layered setting, the listeners can forget that they are listening to voices alone. For advanced choirs.

Teaming with co-writer Melody Morris (Fish Tales, Promise U, Christmas SOCCER Team) Kathie provides a wealth of musical settings and simple narrations for this meaty musical.

Ages: 2nd - 8th grades Speaking Parts: minimum 5 children / 3 - 4 Adults or children.

Rihards Dubra (born Latvia, 1964) wrote his Symphony No. 2 in 2014. It is a large-scale work, over 30 minutes long, in three movements (titled 'Visio', 'Cantus', 'Et vidi...'), for large orchestra comprising triple wind and brass, percussion and harp.
Speaking of symphonic writing, the composer says: 'I don't think a symphony should speak about small, everyday things and issues; it should speak of global, fundamental and substantial things. Only then does it justify the name 'symphony'. It must be something serious.'
This full score (EP 73404) is now available as part of the Peters Baltic Library.

Come and See is an invitation for each of us to experience Jesus as He enters Jerusalem; to witness His betrayal by a friend; to endure with Him the suffering and death of a sinless Savior; and finally to behold His empty tomb. Through the eyes of a blind beggar, we're taken through these events and more by way of a powerful and moving dramatic script, and energetic choral arrangements carefully designed for smaller choirs by two-time Dove Award winning writers, Dennis and Nan Allen. With a run time of 36 minutes, this dramatic musical includes popular worship songs Come and See and Sing to the King and the classic Wayne Watson song Friend of a Wounded Heart. Also included is a beautiful arrangement of the hymn I Saw the Cross and a new tune to the great hymn text Beneath the Cross of Jesus. Musically, this work is highlighted by settings that any choir can comfortably attain. Several opportunities for congregational involvement are included. For the full drama version, a small cast is required, and Nan Allen has written creative and very useful production notes to assist in both staging and costuming. The narrator version requires two narrators and is equally moving. This Easter, come and see what Jesus did for you.
