This title, made popular by the Doobie Brothers, is still a sing-along favorite. The positive, free-spirited message of the lyrics make this a great piece for young people today. Teena Chinn kept the melody and feel of the piece so that it relates not only to the singers, but to the audience as well. Whether using this selection as a closing piece or as the theme song for an entire concert, it is sure to be a winner.

Simply beautiful, this accessible worship anthem is a quiet call to listen in the silence for the still, small voice of God. The melody is truly winsome, the lower vocal range bringing warmth and a conversational element to the performance. A fragile piano part supports and adds color to this quickly learned reflection on contemplative worship.

Written to commemorate the Passion of Christ, this cantata is a moving tribute to His life and ministry. Composed for maximum flexibility and scored for SA(T)B voices, the optional cued notes make it possible for the cantata to grow with your choir. Smaller choirs will enjoy the rich textures and larger ensembles will be able to engage their full resources. For churches that desire an instrumental component, a very modest consort instrumentation creates a reverent accompaniment. The narration contains scriptures and prayers to convey the graceful theme of Christ's sacrificial love. Ending with the crucifixion, A Gathering of Grace will set the stage for Easter morning. Songs include: Prelude of Shadows; In the Stillness of This Moment; Ask of Me; Palm Branches; A Light in the Upper Room; Jesus, in Gethsemane; The Day the Cross Held Up the Sky; A Green Hill Far Away; Recessional. Score and Parts (fl, cl, hn, perc, pno, hp, vn, vc) available as a Printed Edition and as a digital download.

J'aime les formes musicales concises telles que le Prélude et la Fugue, où il y a une idée claire et directe, suivie d'une autre plus complexe et développée.Conformément à cette idée, cette œuvre se compose de deux pièces distinctes, la première - Transfigured Life - vise à attirer l'auditeur avec son rythme rapide et dansant et sa partie de violon simple et mélodique. Il se «transfigure» via quelques courts intermèdes au piano solo en seulement deux notes alternées pour terminer - qui sont le cœur de l'idée originale, maintenant clarifiée en effaçant tout le reste.Le deuxième morceau - Still Life - conserve son sentiment de quiétude grâce à une ligne de piano simple qui laisse beaucoup d'espace à la partie contrastée (mais encore une fois simple) du violon. En tant que pièce absolue et non programmatique, le titre fait référence uniquement à la couleur et au rythme atmosphériques ; c'est à l'auditeur de voir la « nature morte » de son choix dans son esprit.Une note sur les performances :Malgré ma référence à des lignes « simples » et l'évitement déterminé par l'œuvre des grincements modernistes traditionnels, l'œuvre présente certains défis d'exécution en termes de phrasé et d'ensemble qui nécessitent des compétences et une musicalité considérables. L'œuvre a eu le privilège d'être récemment enregistrée par le violoniste Ezgi Sarıkcıoğlu et la pianiste Rossitza Stoycheva, et est disponible sur toutes les principales plateformes :https://open.spotify.com/album/6p5YIe17ci0UMuo2RqZgjRhttps://music.apple.com/gb/album/transfigured-life-still-life-world-premiere-recording/1738035953Envoyer des commentairesTransfigured Life - Still Life, Op. 165 (violin and piano) - David BraidI am keen on concise musical forms such as Prelude and Fugue, where there is one clear straightforward idea, followed by another that is more involved and developed. In keeping with that idea, this work consists of two distinct pieces, the first - Transfigured Life - aims to draw in the listener with its quick, dancing rhythm and simple, melodic violin part. It 'transfigures' via a few short solo piano interludes into just two alternating notes to end - which are the core of the original idea, now made clear by clearing everything else out of the way.The second piece - Still Life - retains its sense of stillness through an uncomplicated piano line that gives lots of space for the violin's contrasting (but again simple) part. As an absolute, not programmatic, piece the title refers to the atmospheric colour and pacing only; it's up to the listener to see 'Still life' of their choosing in their own mind.A note on performance: Despite my reference to 'simple' lines, and the work's determined avoidance of mainstream modernist squeak - the work has certain performance challenges of phrasing and ensemble that requires considerable skill and musicianship. The work has had the privilege of being recently recorded by violinist Ezgi Sarıkcıoğlu and pianist Rossitza Stoycheva, and is available on all major platforms:https://open.spotify.com/album/6p5YIe17ci0UMuo2RqZgjRhttps://music.apple.com/gb/album/transfigured-life-still-life-world-premiere-recording/1738035953.

Do you need a perfect contemporary song for a vocal audition or performance? The Singer's Anthology of Pop/Rock Ballads gives you over 30 pop/rock classics to choose from––all transposed into appropriate keys and based on the original recorded hits. These songs fall into the new wave of standards that you are hearing more often at cabaret, concerts, and special occasions. These songs are most often identified with singer-songwriters, so this collection features the work of Billy Joel, Carole King, Adele, and others. These arrangements were custom made for this collection as authentic performing editions, friendly to both the singer and accompanist. Keys were carefully chosen, either preserving the original recorded key or transposing as near the original as possible to increase accessibility. This volume is presented in separate editions for Soprano/Alto and Tenor/Baritone, with some songs shared between the two, and others specific to the voice type. The Soprano/Alto edition features 31 songs, including: All by Myself • At Last • Don't Know Why • Hallelujah • Hello • I Can't Make You Love Me • I Will Always Love You • Killing Me Softly with His Song • Landslide • Million Reasons • (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman • New York State of Mind • She Used to Be Mine • Someone like You • A Thousand Years • Time After Time • When We Were Young • Will You Love Me Tomorrow (Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow) • and more.
