Commissioned by the King's Singers in celebration of their 40th
birthday, this work has unusual forces and a comparatively complex
nature. Using two texts by Henry Vaughan and John Gillespie Magee,
the work charts a journey from a free tempo reflective beginning to
a rousing ending, celebratory in tone. The work was first performed
by the King's Singers & King's College Choir at King's College
Chapel, Cambridge, 1 May 2008.
for SATB and piano or orchestra This uplifting Christmas carol
demonstrates Rutter's gift for writing engaging and memorable
tunes. The melody weaves between different voices and scorings,
while the piano part complements the vocal lines with rich,
luscious harmonies. An accessible and enjoyable option for mixed
choirs. Orchestral material is available on hire.
Pianoworks Collection 2 is a fabulous anthology compiled especially
for the older beginner pianist. The collection is packed full of
favourite pieces from a variety of genres, including 'Jupiter' from
Holst's The Planets, jazz standard Take Five, and a beautiful new
arrangement of 'Scarborough Fair'. The pieces are ideal both for
concert performance and to reinforce the techniques introduced in
Pianoworks Book 2.
for SATB choir, solo trumpet, and organ Commissioned by the
Worshipful Company of Barbers in celebration of their 700th
anniversary and first performed at the United Guilds Service in St
Paul's Cathedral in March 2008, this is an impressive and stately
setting of verses from Psalm 90, culminating in a jubilant,
maestoso final section. The work would suit any festive service or
concert. The trumpet part is available separately.
This collection of 16 tunes, complete with CD and guidance on style
and interpretation, gives you all the tools you need to begin
exploring klezmer music - the repertoire of Jewish folk musicians
originating in eastern Europe. Each tune is presented with helpful
notes on tonality, phrasing and bowing, and ornamentation, which
will immerse you in the style and help you to develop skills that
can be applied throughout the book. The CD includes newly recorded
(and selected historical) performances of each tune, together with
a complete set of backings. Alternatively, accompanying instruments
can play along using the chords above the melody line, or use the
sekund and bass parts provided in two pull-out booklets. Whether
you have some knowledge of the repertoire's distinctive sound and
feel or none at all, Klezmer Fiddle is the perfect way to build up
a body of fantastic tunes for any occasion.
for SATB and piano This engaging choral work sets five of Aesop's
famous fables . Chilcott's masterful musical setting brings each
story to life, from the groaning mountain to the dozing tortoise at
the end of the race, resulting in a characterful portrayal of these
moral tales that is sure to appeal to audiences of all ages. This
is a wonderful addition to the choral repertory and an ideal
concert work for all mixed-voice choirs.
for TTBarBB and percussion
This is a powerful setting of a darkly vivid poem by Edwin Brock,
which explores the theme of the futility of war. Scored for male
voices, with jumpy rhythms and chromatic harmonies, the music is
vigorous, exciting, and menacing.
for SATB (with divisions) and viola obbligato Beach is taken from
the song cycle 'Songs for Seven Storeys', which Bob Chilcott wrote
to celebrate the opening of the New Evelina Children's Hospital.
Combining a nostalgic melody with a haunting viola obbligato, this
introspective song beautifully captures the memory of the seaside.
for SATB, baritone solo and orchestra A newly engraved edition of
this vibrant choral work and fully compatible with the new Walton
Edition full score. There are minor adjustments to the piano
reduction to improve playability and the text underlay is now
English only, as Walton's original.
for unison children's choir, SATB choir, and piano or strings This
beautiful song combines a melodic setting of Christina Rossetti's
'A Birthday' with Robert Burns's 'A Red, Red Rose', sung to the
tune of a traditional Scottish ballad. Both themes are imbued with
a sense of happiness and contentment with the world, and the
interplay between the melodies results in a truly stirring finish.
Also available for SATB and piano or strings.
