The text of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's There is Sweet Music Here is a wonderful example of word painting. Keep this in mind while learning to sing the music and try to capture the different scenes created through these famous words. The first two measures of accompaniment outline the opening chord in the voices. Crescendo to the word music every time it occurs. In mm. 710, the vocals cascade gently into a dissonance that develops into a full, rich sound. Allow the piano to support the unison lines in mm. 1417 as well as those that contain three-part singing. The piano establishes a consistent undulating tempo in mm. 2225, as if lulling someone to sleep. Be intentional with word/syllabic stress when singing through the quarter notes. Maintain a consistent tempo when singing the eighth notes in mm. 3336. The chord progression helps establish the coolness of the mosses and ivies. Notice the melodic movement in mm. 3738 reflecting the craggy ledge and hanging poppy followed by the unison sleep which ushers in the return of the original melody within the accompaniment. Linger with quiet, full and supported singing during the last three measures.The text of Alfred, Lord Tennyson'sA There is Sweet Music HereA is a wonderful example of word painting.

Paul Merrill, director of the Cornell University Jazz Ensemble (Ithaca, NY), commissioned this engaging bossa nova original for proficient groups. Don't let the title fool you, though, because there's an abundance of subtle, yet challenging material here requiring a mature approach from the ensemble. The melody is based on a simple four-note motif played by Miles Davis on his album Tutu. Brown later adapted this score for small-group and recorded it on his CD Night Waves (Brown Cats Productions/BC9501). Guitar, tenor sax, and flugelhorn are featured in melodic and solo roles. Duration 5:35.

Earth , Wind & Fire was formed by jazz drummer Maurice White, whose aim was to mix various music styles to produce a unique sound. Combined with excellent song writing and fine performances this sound made Earth, Wind & Fire one of the most influential soul groups of the seventies. In subsequent decades they experienced varying success but this medley reflects the heyday of this legendary group. In his job as staff arranger with the Royal Marine Band of the Dutch Navy, Peter Kleine Schaars wrote many top-class arrangements. The talent of the musicians in the band made it possible to write in such a way that they closely resembled the original works. Consequently, this medley shines just like the original versions by Earth, Wind & Fire. Four famous songs have been used: In the Stone, Got to Get You into My Life, After the Love Has Gone and September.
