Brass Quartet Baritone Horn TC,Cornet,Trombone,Trumpet,Tuba - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1221576 Composed by Wilhelm Ramsøe. Arranged by Edited by Roar Kvam. 19th Century,Chamber,Classical,Romantic Period. 190 pages. KVAMusic Edition #817882. Published by KVAMusic Edition (A0.1221576). Wilhelm Ramsøe's magnificent brass quartets transfigured the genre of Viennese classical string quartet to brass sound.They are the composer's most often performed, most eective and virtuoso compositions. Each piece consists of four movements. A peculiarity of the cyclical form of this quartet is that the first movement in sonata form is preceded by a festive, slow introduction.Our new edition of the quartets follow the composers original instrumentation: Cornet in Bb, Trumpet in F, (here transposed to Bb), Trombone and Tuba, but with substitute parts for the Trombone to BC and Baritone/Tenorhorn in Bb TC, the cornet part can of cause be played with a trumpet and the tuba with a euphonium.

2cl. cl/acl. Bcl. - Advanced - Digital Download SKU: F2.FM584 Composed by Benjamin Godard. Arranged by Robert Rainford. A clarinet quartet arrangement of this quartet. Score and parts. 101 pages. Forton Music - Digital #FM584. Published by Forton Music - Digital (F2.FM584). ISBN 9790570484836.This is an arrangement of Godard's third and final string quartet for clarinet quartet. It was originally published in 1893 towards the end of the composers life, and shows us all the traits of late romantic French chamber music. The first movement is lyrical and flowing, with rich chords and unexpected harmonic twists. The second movement is languid and dreamy, featuring a soaring bass clarinet solo in the middle of the movement. The third is almost like a minuet, featuring a florid melody in the first clarinet supported by the other instruments, and the final movement uses driving triplets and rhythmic unison passages to create urgency and excitement.

String Ensemble,String Quintet Cello,Viola,Violin - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1034429 Composed by Nicollo Paganini. Arranged by Myung Hwang PARK. 20th Century,Classical. Score and parts. 44 pages. Mhp #639780. Published by mhp (A0.1034429). Originally for solo violin, Paganini's caprice no.24 is surely the most famous piece of him. Arranged for 5 strings(string quartet plus 3rd violin), this arrangement more than just a simple harmonisation: Exploring the concept of variations, which consistes in expending musical possibilities from the original theme, each variation has a proper musical language different from another. Some variations has a stylistic reference or direct quotes of other classical pieces combined with the original theme. The original solo violin part is divided for 3 violins, alternating by phrase(s).

This arrangement has the duettists accompanied by string quartet and would find its place in any baroque themed concert or a recital.as it has 3 sections following the pattern Fast - slow - faster. The last movement will present some challenges to both soloists to get the semiquavers in, but it is well worth the effort as the piece is absolutely beautiful.Playing time 8' 48.Parts supplied for Oboe, Bassoon, Violin 1, Violin 2, Viola, Cello. The string parts could be played by a string quartet or by an small string orchestra.

Small Ensemble B-Flat Clarinet,Cello,Viola,Violin - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1028192 Composed by Jeremy Hart. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 37 pages. Jeremy Graham Hart #6590413. Published by Jeremy Graham Hart (A0.1028192). Oscillation began as an experiment in coordination of a melody and harmony which are based on different means of organization. To this end, the clarinet is treated separately from the string quartet. The clarinet melody is constructed by means of limited interval usage. In mm.1–3 it can be observed that the melodic intervals are strictly limited to the use of a major 2nd/minor 7th or a major 6th/minor 3rd. By contrast, the string quartet has no limitation on its intervallic usage but always strives towards triadic harmonies in its accompanimental capacity and tends to converge on harmonies diatonic to the key. In addition, despite the proliferation of non-chord tones and transitionary passages in the string quartets’ music, the stable harmonies are written to have fairly parsimonious motion between them (if one were to reduce out the NCTs etc.) The coordination of these two separate logics is done by the selection of anchor-pitches for the melodic phrases. For example, the melodic phrase in mm.4–7 oscillates around the pitch of G natural (transposed in the score), which it shares with the F major/minor 7th chord that is heard as the harmonic goal of the strings in m.7. The teleology of the work can largely be traced in its melodic construction. Its opening phrase of mm.1–3 is anchored on G natural and ends on a C sharp, a tritone above the anchor, to simulate a half-cadence effect. The second phrase of mm.4–7 is still written on G natural but it ends on G as well, forming the authentic cadence and establishing a basic period as well as the work’s first theme. This is followed by second period which represents a dominant relationship to the first. The phrase at mm.10–13.2 is a rather extended utterance in comparison to the first two and is anchored on D natural. This is followed by 4-stage call and response across the ensemble (excluding the second violin) that leads the first section to a close at m.16 on a C diminished triad. Melodically, the first section is characterised by its limited used of a major 2nd/minor 7th or a major 6th/minor 3rd interval. At m.17, the second section follows much the same process as the first, using anchor pitches as a means of coordination and formal definition, and alternating soloistic clarinet playing with activated harmonies in the strings. The primary difference is in the character of the second section’s theme with regards to its rhythmic profile as well as its intervallic content. Namely, these are limited to the use of a minor 3rd or minor 2nd and their inversions. The second section draws to a close at m.32, returning to the tonic harmony of the key. With the first and second sections complete, the work now proceeds into a developmental section. Mm.33–84 largely consists of development of the two themes by manipulation of intervallic content as well as adjusting the placement of the thematic material withing the accompanimental context. This does include juxtaposition of the two themes (though one typicall becomes integrated into to accompaniment) as can be seen between the violin and viola at m.39. Variety is heightened by the introduction of episodic material such as the secondary melody performed by the clarinet at mm.40–41. The Lento section starting at m.53 introduces further rhythmic and metric adjustment of the thematic content. A varied recapitulation occurs at mm.85–113 and is followed by a coda at mm.114–131.
