Two-part treble chorus with piano and percussion. 2:45I found this infectious little item in a book of contemporary poems composed by children selected by Naomi Shihab Nye, creating a ditty of a piece that uses just one repeated rhythm and simple chord progression.  Accompaniment is piano, bongos or conga, and triangle.  There is about 1:20 of music, with a trick/false ending, before it repeats.A fun middle school piece.The text is from “It’s Inside of Me!†by Adam Delavan.  Salting the Ocean, 100 Poems by Young Poets. Sung here by Emily McNally via Fiverr.com.Seeking a premiere as of Nov 15, 2023. Please get in touch through www.davefroman.com.

Brass Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.927013 Composed by Charles Johnson. Arranged by Dr. Jim Fox, ASCAP. 20th Century,Traditional. Score and parts. 25 pages. All Brass Radio Publishing #3050619. Published by All Brass Radio Publishing (A0.927013). In the early 20th century, the rag was king. Charles Johnson wrote this wonder of a Two-Step Rag and called it Dill Pickles. Like almost rags, it is lively and fun. People would enjoy listening to rag music while drinking Kellogs Cheerios Beer!This arrangement uses two trumpets, a french horn, a trombone (which several glissandos) and a tuba that occasionally has the melody. The melody is passed from part to part, it has a false ending and a false key change. It sounds like it is ending but, no, it is going on. The false key change has bars that move to different keys but when done ends up in the same key.This is kind of handy as once each part has the fingerings for their part down, they can just keep on going. It keeps the audience alive and is a fun addition for any quintet.

Minus-One Tracks, 5. Rhythm Track, 6. Recording Stems (for those who wish to use their own Digital Audio Workstation)Them Changes is a standout track by Thundercat, featuring a funky, bass-driven groove that highlights Thundercat's virtuosic bass playing and unique blend of jazz, funk, and R&B influences. The lyrics explore themes of heartbreak and emotional turmoil, delivered with Thundercat's signature falsetto vocals.Kerry Marsh's vocal jazz arrangement begins with an a cappella rendition of the song's bridge, serving as a teaser before launching into the now-iconic drums and bass groove. A hallmark of neo-soul, the dissonance between the chord changes and the melody can present challenges for vocal harmonies. This arrangement skillfully navigates these tricky spots, employing octaves and unison writing to minimize clashes, and then breaking out into lush, dense harmonies where they are most effective.The chart concludes with a space for vocal or instrumental improv, accompanied by vocal backgrounds, ending the piece in a sudden and unconventional manner. This modern-day classic will be a hit with your vocal jazz ensemble, offering something for singers, instrumentalists, and the audience alike to enjoy.Perfect for advanced ensembles looking to explore contemporary jazz-funk, this arrangement captures the essence of Thundercat's innovative style while providing a fresh and exciting challenge. Check out the Scoreflipper preview to see how this arrangement can elevate your group's performance and captivate your audience.

Percussion Ensemble - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.939357 Composed by Adam Grim. Concert,World. Score and parts. 15 pages. Adam B. Grim #2885497. Published by Adam B. Grim (A0.939357). Start Over Soca is a soca that features the quick hands of the lead players. Many notes are repeated to create a falling or rising effect. The moving bass line will surely sound solid and the cellos and double seconds will have a fun time with the short features they get in the transition sections of the piece. In the middle, there is a false ending, which starts the beginning over again and plays a modified finale (Hence the Start Over Soca).

Score and parts. 17 pages. Helen Marple-Horvat #3886401. Published by Helen Marple-Horvat (A0.749216). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvRBiRXV_5c&index=17&list=PLvlvfzn8EHuO941zg_1L4U6pyFnDK9dmj This is my third carol in a minor key! I love the harmonic possibilities, especially the false relations in all of them! Down the years I enjoyed singing this one in choral groups, and also sharing it with pupils in choirs. Included are various harmonisations of the wonderful tune, as well as some rhythmic surprises. If you would like to watch a video of a professional quartet playing my arrangement on Youtube, look up my channel by typing Skinny Black Dogs, Capriccio Quartet, Coventry Carol. They play it at a very fast speed, feeling it as one in a bar. Approx 140 bpm. However, I have also included a 30 second clip of some of the Sibelius Score at a much slower speed of 100 bpm. I think that the tempo is a matter of personal preference. The dissonance is more pronounced and beautiful at the slower speed, but the unexpected extra bars are more fun at a faster speed. At bar 68, the climactic section the cellist should be playing arco! There was a mistake in the score and I have now corrected it! This is a good key for strings, and the double stopping always includes an open string. Although advanced players can make use of higher positions, younger players can use open strings which will not detract from this ancient style! I hope you enjoy playing this arrangement. Let me hear any phone recordings by sending them to me on Facebook. I always love to hear them. In my catalogue you may also enjoy ‘Angel Gabriel’ and ‘O Come Emmanuel’ too as they are in similar style.

A Cappella,Contest,Festival,Hip-Hop,Pop,R & B. 17 pages. Timorell #3594519. Published by Timorell (A0.501986).

Follow us! @tonewallnyc Instagram | Facebook | Tiktok | Youtube | email | website #queeracappella . Questions for the arranger? Volume pricing? Contact Timorell at tonewallnyc@gmail.com. An advanced intermediate-level a cappella cover of the classic Justin Timberlake song, close to the original funky style with an extended ending, good to get the audience clapping along. Written for male voices, some with high falsetto. Includes a breakdown section for basses in the middle. Also includes shout-out to 'Jus-tin' which can be tailored to most any two-syllable combo--we do 'New York!'

Full Orchestra - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1031686 Composed by Austin Wintory. Contemporary. Score and parts. 39 pages. Austin Wintory #3512243. Published by Austin Wintory (A0.1031686). EP!C!!! is an overture-sized orchestral work, originally commissioned by the West Michigan Symphony in 2016. It is intended as a higher energy opener or Act 1 closer. Program notes:Entirely by mistake, EP!C!!! is study in conflict. The piece began with a simple premise: compose a work which teases some of the pervasive clichés of today’s musical landscape (particularly the Hollywood or so-called media music scenes). Those clichés are primarily two gestures: 1) a progression of chords, often called the Chords of Destiny (consisting of i – VI – III – VIII) and 2) an endlessly repeating minor third ostinato.The conflict emerged internally when, after multiple false starts, I would quickly start to hate the piece because it felt like the clichés were being presented whole cloth, without the slightest sense of irony. I became deeply paranoid that the music wasn’t in on its own joke. When I would reverse course, it felt condescending, as though it were declaring from some erudite ivory tower that it was above those gestures. The trouble particularly with the latter is that clichés become so for a reason; something genuinely compelling becomes so ubiquitous that it loses some of the freshness, but that doesn’t erase what initially made it compelling. So the piece needed to somehow make fun of the fact that these gestures are cliché, while not dismissing their intrinsic value. And indeed, to celebrate that value!It took a long time to find my place between those two extremes, and ultimately I think the music that emerged is actually the conflict itself manifest. The two gestures are this constant presence, almost like a seductive temptation, that are initially regarded as distractions, but eventually become the music’s core. It’s as though the music finally decided to just relent and find something to truly love and celebrate within these overwrought ideas, haters be damned.However, for the sake of total clarity of intention, I couldn’t resist some on-the-nose tongue-in-cheek. The little cameo of Haydn’s lulling 94th Symphony 2nd movement tune is my way of saying you think classical music is epic??? THEN LISTEN TO THIS SH*T!!! before inevitably popping open a Mountain Dew and snowboarding into an avalanche.- Austin Wintory, October 21, 2016

Concert Band - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.912831 Composed by Alexis Emmanuel Chabrier. Arranged by Keith Otis Edwards. Classical,Contemporary,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 213 pages. Volitant Music #3497295. Published by Volitant Music (A0.912831). Emmanuel Chabrier (1841-1894) wrote this as a piece for piano (4-hands) in the 1880s after attending a performance of Tristan and Isolde in Munich. Chabrier had been moved to tears by Richard Wagner's romantic music drama, but when Chabrier returned home to Paris, he wrote this burlesque, a pastiche of the various themes from the opera. It was a curious thing to do, because instead of writing a tribute to Wagner's masterpiece, it was as if he instead squirted Wagner in the face with a seltzer bottle. Wagner's champion, Hans von Bülow, became enraged when he heard Chabrier perform the parody, but Wikipedia reports that Francis Poulenc described Souvenirs de Munich as irresistibly funny, where Wagner's principal themes appear with false beards and fake moustaches.This arrangement for wind band is greatly simplified from the original piano piece to make it more playable. Still, bands will find it a challenge, although instrumentalists and audiences both are certain to enjoy this clever novelty from La Belle �poque.
