Small Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.534549 Composed by Gregory Sullivan Isaacs. Concert,Contemporary,Standards. Score and parts. 10 pages. Musik Fabrik Music Publishing #3627069. Published by Musik Fabrik Music Publishing (A0.534549). Text by William Shakespeare (A Midsummer Night's Dream Act V, Scene I)The ultimate overblown death scene for an actor of limited abilitiesIn the play, Nick Bottom thinks that he is the greatest actor alive. However, he is appallingly dreadful - he shamelessly overplays every line, mugs incessantly and makes word errors. He thinks that he is fabulous when, in fact, he is ridiculous. His suicide scene is one of the great moments for comic actors and it can take as long as the actor wishes - even up to 5 minutes. This aria is set in the same manner and many buffo singers immediately come to mind as models for such satire. This selection cannot be overplayed. It can be sung by any male voiceTEXT: Sweet Moon, I thank thee for thy sunny beams.I thank thee, Moon, for shining now so bright.For by thy gracious, golden, glittering gleams,I trust to take of truest Thisbe sight.—But stay, O spite!But mark, poor knight,What dreadful dole is here!Eyes, do you see?How can it be?O dainty duck! O dear!Thy mantle good,What, stained with blood?Approach, ye Furies fell!O Fates, come, come,Cut thread and thrum.Quail, crush, conclude, and quell!O wherefore, Nature, didst thou lions frame?Since lion vile hath here deflowered my dear,Which is—no, no—which was the fairest dameThat lived, that loved, that liked, that looked with cheer.Come, tears, confound!Out, sword, and wound!The pap of Pyramus— Ay, that left papWhere heart doth hop. (stabs himself)Thus die I, thus, thus, thus.Now am I dead.Now am I fled.My soul is in the sky.Tongue, lose thy light.Moon, take thy flight.Now die, die, die, die, die.(dies)

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1454224 By Barbara Arens. By Barbara Arens. Arranged by Barbara Arens. 21st Century,Contemporary,Contest,Festival,Historic,Instructional. Score. 34 pages. Barbara Arens #1033353. Published by Barbara Arens (A0.1454224). As a former harpsichordist, it occurred to me that some new harpsichord repertoiremight be welcome; thus I wrote the ‘Suite Update’ using the actual movements of abaroque suite. But I gave each movement a new twist, adding a whiff of Tango to the Allemande,giving the Gavotte some Rumba rhythm, etc. and altogether - I had a great time!But as my harpsichord is in dreadful condition, having been neglected for decades, I actually wrote this harpsichord work at the piano. And I have to admit that I LIKE it on the piano!!So here is the fully pianistic version, as opposed to the harpsichord version.To round off this book, I took four pieces from my two collections using the titles of Magritte’s surreal paintings to make a further 4-movement work, the ‘Suite Magritte’.

Choral Choir (Mixed) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.942887 Composed by James W. Knox. Contemporary. Octavo. 12 pages. Knox Music #6474621. Published by Knox Music (A0.942887). The poem Spellbound by Emily Brontë brings her readers into a single moment in time. The readers are trapped with the speaker and the various interpretations as to what spell the speaker has a variety of interpretations. But whatever the spell and for whatever reason, the speaker makes it clear that she is held captive by a spell that immobilizes her even though there seems to be an impending doom. The speaker knows that something dreadful is coming her way, and yet she is unable to move. SATB divisi, celeste, crystal glasses, percussion.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.761463 Composed by Russell Ronnebaum. Contemporary. Octavo. 11 pages. Russell Ronnebaum #2912079. Published by Russell Ronnebaum (A0.761463). Cradle Song for SATB Choir and PianoWords by: William BlakeMusic by: Russell Ronnebaum About the piece:William Blake’s serene language inspired this dramatic setting of his poem Cradle Song. The piece opens with a constantly descending scale as a mother sings to her sleeping child. As more voices are layered in, the texture becomes increasingly lush, but still soothing. The third stanza of text is marked with peaceful harp-like figures (as thy softest limbs I feel) while the voices take over the calming decent into deeper, more peaceful sleep. The mother’s concern suddenly changes as the descending scale transforms and (the cunning wiles that creep) set in. Anticipation of escaping the terror of potential nightmares escalates as the ascending textures grow more tense and dissonant. The tension finally peaks with a breathless silence before resolving with (then the dreadful night shall break). The final phrase of the piece is a slightly transformed iteration of the opening vocal phrase and is a subtle nod to Johannes Brahms’ Wiegenlied: Guten Abend, Gute Nacht, more commonly known as Brahms’ Lullaby.Cradle Song was commissioned by Rincon/University High School Concert Choir in Tucson, Arizona; Directed by Mareena Boosamra.www.RRonnebaum.com

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1102559 Composed by David Perkins. Children,Comedy,Contemporary. Octavo. 37 pages. David Perkins #705972. Published by David Perkins (A0.1102559). A lively setting for choir and piano of three of the most popular tales from the first volume of poems written and published by Hilaire Belloc in 1907: 1. Rebecca (who slammed doors for fun and perished miserably); 2. Henry King (who chewed bits of string and was early cut off in dreadful agonies); 3. Jim (who ran away from Nurse and was eaten by a lion); The text is rich with humorous twists and turns, moments of melodrama, pathos and comic asides. With the help of a colourful piano accompaniment, these musical settings breathe new life into the classic poems with a direct storytelling style and plenty of humour. Three Cautionary Tales for Choirs can be performed as a whole or as separate songs, with a total running time of about 8:30.

Bassoon Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.924870 Composed by Stanley M. Hoffman. 20th Century,Concert. Individual part. 1 pages. Stanleymhoffman.com #3914659. Published by stanleymhoffman.com (A0.924870). The main title of the piece is the same as the choral piece by Claude Debussy. A play on words, the subtitle represents an intentional misinterpretation of Stravinsky's title The Rite of Spring, meaning The Right of Spring (The Right of Spring, The Wrong of Winter.) The piece is, however, anything but humorous; it is, in fact, rather doleful. The opening motive of Stravinsky's piece is transformed to create a piece that hints at a warm springtime New England day turning into a dreadful wintery one.

Brass Ensemble Trombone - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1088224 Composed by David F. Wilborn. Contemporary,Latin. Score and parts. 57 pages. Gordon Cherry #692477. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.1088224). Here is a description of this fine work by the composer, Dr David F. Wilborn: Tsunami, for eight trombones, is designed to capture some of the energy and drama of a tsunami wave speeding towards a coastline. The opening musical themes are powerful and bold. These melodies are accompanied by pulsating and aggressive rhythms. After a while, the tension of the music subsides as a calm serene sound of Polynesian music emerges. Here the joyful entertaining atmosphere is a total contrast to the previous themes. The scene captures a moment of frivolity and images of participants who are totally unaware of impending danger. But that moment is brief as the tsunami music abruptly returns. The work concludes by capturing the image of the powerful tsunami wave racing for the coastline. At this point, a tsunami siren blares, and the music builds with great intensity. Upon hearing unexpected silence followed by a loud minor chord, it becomes clear that the massive wave has hit the coast. The destruction is done and the dreadful event is over. All seems well until the siren again sounds and the infamous opening tsunami music returns. This 8-minute work is appropriate for moderately advanced performers. The range is moderate and all the parts are in bass clef.

Instrumental Duet,Piano Flute,Instrumental Duet,Oboe,Piano - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.837511 Composed by Brett L. Wery. 20th Century,Concert,Contemporary. Score and parts. 56 pages. Sonata Grendel Publishing #6599293. Published by Sonata Grendel Publishing (A0.837511). An Avaloch Divertimento was begun-in fact the first two movements were completed-at the Avaloch Farm Music Institute in New Hampshire. Avaloch or Abhlach, is from the old Irish word meaning, place of the apple trees. The sacred Isle of the Apple Trees, Avalon-where Arthur, King of the Britons, was taken to be healed of his dreadful wounds-takes its name from this ancient word. Avaloch Farm Music Institute (AFMI) in New Hampshire is also a magical place where chamber music groups come to work and create in an atmosphere free from the distractions of everyday life. In the summer of 2021 I had the pleasure and honor of being a resident of AFMI along with Areli Mendoza-Pannone, Robert Frazier, and Mark Evans as we work-shopped my song cycle, Quarry Songs. Areli, Bobby, and Mark had to go back to the real world half way through the residency, leaving me at AFMI to begin work on An Avaloch Divertimento. The first movement is an Aubade, which are traditionally morning love songs-as opposed to evening love songs or serenades. In the seventeenth century aubades became associated with instrumental works depicting sunrises. It is this sense of the word that is used here, complete with a bird-song oboe cadenza. Pippin takes its name from a variety of apple. While at AFMI I would take afternoon walks through the nearby apple orchard to beautiful Walker Pond. It was on one of these walks that I came up with the first draft of the tune used in the central fughetta of the movement. The word, pippin is also included in Carolyn Forché’s poem, The Museum of Stones, which I had set as the final movement of Quarry Songs. The final movement, Amhrán, means song in Irish and is a simple song form with three interwoven themes that emulate the Irish Bodhran (frame drum), fiddle, and singer. Many thanks to Board Chair, Alfred Tauber, Artistic Director, Deborah Sherr, and Operations Director, Hannah Landes and the whole AFMI staff for creating such a wonderful refuge for musicians to work, learn, and create.

Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quintet - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1017701 Composed by Giocchino Rossinl. Arranged by Friedrich Berr, Adrian Barnes. Classical. 36 pages. Cammerayguy #6216705. Published by Cammerayguy (A0.1017701). When Rossini discovered these quartets that he wrote when he was 12 he described them as : Six dreadful sonatas composed by me at the country estate of my friend Agostino Triossi, when I was at a most infantile age, not even having taken a lesson in accompaniment, the whole composed and copied out in three days. These delightful sonate a quattro are the earliest of his works to have survived and they have been in the repertoire ever since he wrote them. They were first published in an arrangement for string quartet. A version for wind quartet followed in 1828/9. This arrangement is for Wind Quintet with the addition of an oboe part. This provides a wider range of textures and also provides an opportunity to share the thematic material between all the players.
