Easy Piano - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1373586 Composed by Franz Schubert. Arranged by John Basel. 19th Century,Classical,Film/TV,Instructional,Romantic Period. Score. 2 pages. Yuway Chan-Basel #957961. Published by Yuway Chan-Basel (A0.1373586). This piano arrangement is based on one of Schubert's Lieder, Erlkönig (Erlking) Op.1 D 328, originally composed for voice and piano. Premiered in 1821, it swiftly earned acclaim as a significant piece in Western music. The vocalist embodies four distinct characters - the narrator, a father, his young son, and the eponymous Erlking, a supernatural being in pursuit of the boy. The piano mirrors the implied scene of horse riding with rapid triplet figures, simulating hoof beats. Arranged in the key of D minor, this piano rendition features swift triplets and continuous motion, evoking a sense of urgency and darkness. It showcases rapid finger work in the right hand and scalic passages in the left hand. These elements contribute to the overall complexity and nuanced expression of the piece, providing an opportunity to develop dexterity and musicality through these specific piano techniques. It is well-suited for piano learners at the Piano Adventure/Faber Level 2b - 3a.

Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.693015 Composed by Ben Dockery. Concert,Contemporary,Graduation,Standards. Score. 2 pages. Ben Dockery #3408953. Published by Ben Dockery (A0.693015). This intermediate level piece for piano (2 min, 45 sec) is the third meditation in a volume of twelve. Its recurring melodic and rhythmic motif unifies the composition through contrasting moments of light and darkness. Throughout the harmonic progression, there is an emphasis on the subdominant--always a relaxation of tonality. And it is this plagal sound that is heard last, suggesting a resting place, a moment's peace on an unfinished journey.The performer should be aware of the left-hand's missing eighth-note rest on the down-beat of nearly every measure. It was omitted to avoid a graphic collision. Therefore, the higher octaves are all played on the ands of each beat. Also, notice that in measures 13-14 and other similar places the right-hand plays higher voiced notes in the bass clef. Be careful not to over-emphasize the left-hand ostinato figure, especially the notes played with the thumb. They should be the softest sounds throughought.

All kids love dragons and dinosaurs. And we love the concept of this book! Reba Lunsford's very easy pieces for beginning harp players are printed on the left-hand pages, and a more advanced accompaniment is printed on the right-hand page. This allows the teacher to play a nice accompaniment along with the beginning student during their lesson. The accompaniments can also be played as a duet with another harp or piano by the student's sibling, parent, or friend.This book will have the kids wanting to practice! Subtitled Fun Songs for Beginners and Friends, it is an excellent supplement for any teacher of young students. The songs are very short, usually 2 or 3 lines, and have fun lyrics about dragons or dinosaurs. The first 7 songs have fingerings and placing brackets. Each tune has a musical concept the teacher can briefly touch on to reinforce theory, such as eighth notes, placing, measures, time signatures, intervals, accents, arpeggios, glisses, tempo, thumb slides, scales, pickup measure, accidentals, ties, and more. All of the pieces are in the key of C. One piece has a pre-set G#, and another has 2 pre-set flats, but there are no sharping lever changes in the music.Contains: Glowing Orbs in Darkness, Baby Brontosaur Blues, T-Rex, Whispering Wings, Triceratops Waltz, Happy Chinese New Year, Hiding, Hannah's Dragon, The Lost World, Come Out and Play, Dragon Treasure .

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1490922 By Don McLean. By Don McLean. Arranged by Timothy Stapay. Broadway,Film/TV,Folk,Musical/Show,Rock,Singer/Songwriter. Score. 10 pages. Timothy Stapay #1067707. Published by Timothy Stapay (A0.1490922). Vincent (Starry, Starry Night) is a song by Don McLean, written as a tribute to Vincent van Gogh.McLean wrote the lyrics in 1971 after reading a book about the life of Van Gogh. It was released on McLean's 1971 American Pie album; the following year, the song topped the UK Singles Chart for two weeks, and peaked at No. 12 in the United States, where it also hit No. 2 on the Easy Listening chart. Billboard ranked it as the No. 94 song for 1972.Lyrics:StarryStarry nightPaint your palette blue and greyLook out on a summer's dayWith eyes that know theDarkness in my soul.Shadows on the hillsSketch the trees and the daffodilsCatch the breeze and the winter chillsIn colors on the snowy linen land.And now I understand what you tried to say to meHow you suffered for your sanityHow you tried to set them free.They would not listenThey did not know howPerhaps they'll listen now.StarryStarry nightFlaming flo'rs that brightly blazeSwirling clouds in violet haze reflect inVincent's eyes of China blue.Colors changing hueMorning fields of amber grainWeathered faces lined in painAre soothed beneath the artist'sLoving hand.And now I understand what you tried to say to meHow you suffered for your sanityHow you tried to set them free.Perhaps they'll listen now.For they could not love youBut still your love was trueAnd when no hope was left in sight on that starryStarry night.You took your lifeAs lovers often do;But I could have told youVincentThis world was neverMeant for oneAs beautiful as you.StarryStarry nightPortraits hung in empty hallsFrameless heads on nameless wallsWith eyesThat watch the world and can't forget.Like the stranger that you've metThe ragged men in ragged clothesThe silver thorn of bloody roseLie crushed and brokenOn the virgin snow.And now I think I know what you tried to say to meHow you suffered for your sanityHow you tried to set them free.They would not listenThey're notList'ning stillPerhaps they never will.

Instrumental Duet Instrumental Duet,Piano - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.966750 Composed by Dillon Ekle. 20th Century,Christian,Easter,Sacred. Score and parts. 9 pages. Dillon Ekle #3068399. Published by Dillon Ekle (A0.966750). This original composition takes its inspiration from Vespers, an evening service of prayer. The piece begins with a brooding bass rhythm, which underlies much of the composition, as melodies depict images of the evening sun's procession toward the horizon. At the moment of the sun's setting, a grand hymn emerges, the emotional high point of the journey as the fires of creation illuminates the world in God's glory, before cooling into a final reprise of the initial melody as the darkness of night settles in.While not an actual setting of the text, the original hymn-like melody in this piece is inspired by the ancient prayer called Phos Hilaron (O Gladsome Light), one of the earliest Christian hymns.This piece, written for piano duet (1-piano, 4-hands), is appropriate for concerts, or as a prelude or other instrumental moment in a church service, especially evening services. While it is not specific to any season, the mood is also appropriate for services in Advent, Lent, Holy Week, or other times of reflection.Melodies move throughout the range of the piano and across both players. Both parts are of similar difficulty, and neither part is more featured than the other; a musical performance will require a strong sense of ensemble.An audio preview accompanied by images and the Phos Hilaron text which inspired part of this piece can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NK0NAl15juUThe PDF file is formatted to be printed double-sided. Once printed and bound, odd numbered pages (including the cover page) should be on the right (where the primo player sits), and even numbered pages should be on the left (where the secondo player sits). Alternatively, if two pianos are being used, the file can be printed single-sided and the parts separated out; the primo player will have the odd numbered pages, and the secondo player will have the even numbered pages.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1077067 By Michael Swedberg. By Terrence Niska. 20th Century,Classical,Contemporary. Score. 4 pages. Niska Music Publishing #681209. Published by Niska Music Publishing (A0.1077067). A sense of foreboding fills the air as this piece begins. There is a darkness on the horizon and it can mean only one thing: the storm approaches. The simple chords of the intro present a feeling of calm that belies the impending torrent. The music takes a deep breath and then…it begins. In the left hand, a figure reminiscent of Chopin’s “Revolutionary†Etude begins (though not nearly as quick). The rains start to fall and the winds begin to blow as the storm builds in intensity. Measure by measure the music grows in strength until the climax is reached and the gales begin to subside with the last crashes of thunder. For all its fury, the storm is over. The clouds begin to recede across the horizon and in the end, a single ray of sunlight breaks through the gloom.
