Originally published in 1978, this expressive and dynamic anthem from Undine Smith Moore is ideal for Lent or anytime a choral setting of the Kyrie is needed, and it has now been re-released in the St. Olaf Choral Series. Editor Anton Armstrong notes that Undine Smith Moore was often referred to as the “Dean of Black Women Composers, and while many of her compositions are concert arrangements of African American spirituals, this piece is an original work written in the harmonic and melodic style of a spiritual. Suggestions by the editors provide tips for smaller choirs who wish to sing this anthem.

At the turn of the 19th to 20th centuries, classical composers also wrote light music and publishers were happy to back this market niche to increase sales fi gures. As such, salon music fl ourished both in society and at home. The dance repertoire in Mel Bonis' compositions consists mainly of these Salon Pieces. This volume once again illustrates that even those pieces considered as light are characterized by the elements of elegance and depth of expression.First Publications: bolero, op.

This truly lovely Appalachian folk song is given a hauntingly beautiful setting by arranger Jamey Ray. This will work nicely for a choir with strong women’s voices, with occasional divisi, but the men’s parts stay with a strictly two-part voicing. Simply gorgeous!

The film noir genre of 1940s cinema typically includes a strong but flawed male lead (often a detective), a beautiful woman who coerces the male into committing murder or is a killer herself (a “femme fatale”), and a twisting plot line that involves one or more homicides. These movies typically are shot in black and white, with emphasis on shadows and light, alcohol and cigarettes, trench coats and fedoras. Most of the story lines do not have happy endings. Inspired by this genre, NOIR VIGNETTES consists of four movements, each depicting an aspect of film noir: Murder at Midnight, Loaded Gun, Femme Fatale, and Last Cigarette. String bass parts are provided both for standard orchestral tuning and for solo tuning.In the mid-1940s, film critics in France noticed a trend emerging in movies from the United States, which they coined film noir (which translates to “black film”). These movies were dark, moody, and pessimistic, reflecting the agitation and anxiety present in society following World War II. Several characteristics are commonly found in many of these movies, including a strong but flawed male lead (often a detective), a beautiful woman who either coerces the male lead into committing murder for her or is a killer herself (a “femme fatale”), and a twisting, turning plot line that involves one or more homicides. Additionally, there are several visual elements that these movies share: many are shot in black and white, with great emphasis on the use of shadows and light; alcohol and cigarettes are heavily consumed by men and women alike; and men typically wear trench coats and fedoras. Most of the story lines do not have happy endings. Examples of film noir include Orson Welles’ The Lady from Shanghai, Billy Wilder’s Double Indemnity, and John Huston’s The Maltese Falcon.NOIR VIGNETTES for Double Bass and Piano consists of four movements, each depicting a different aspect of film noir: Murder at Midnight, Loaded Gun, Femme Fatale, and Last Cigarette.This piece was commissioned by the University of Illinois Research Board on behalf of double bassist Michael Cameron.-Stacy Garrop.

Georg Kreisler equals scathing, dark black humour on the piano! The Singphoniker have arranged Georg Kreisler's best known songs for all-male ensemble and recorded them on CD. Schott now publishesthe corresponding music edition for men's choir TTBB with piano accompaniment (Georg Kreisler - Lieder und Chansons, ED 22735). In addition, all songs from the sheet music album are available in separate editions: Der schone Heinrich pinches all petty bourgeois women in Vienna. But how does he do that? We can tell that this is not due to the fact that he does not slurp the soup. This pleasant arrangement with Kreisler's humorous text most certainly creates an exuberant atmosphere in the concert.
