The number of Spanish-speaking students in the United States continues to grow dramatically, leaving many English-speaking teachers—especially music teachers—searching for tools to effectively bridge the communication gap. In Spanish for Music Teachers, authors Jacob Prosek and Heidi Nelson draw from their studies abroad and years of classroom experience to present practical, ready-to-use strategies, vocabulary, repertoire, and reproducible materials for K–12 music educators who serve English Language Learner (ELL) populations. The authors provide an overview of ELL instruction, including insights into ELL terminology and an explanation of the ELL program models present in schools today. They also recommend easy-to-implement ELL strategies that will significantly improve the music classroom for all students. Throughout the book, teachers will find hundreds of practical Spanish words and phrases—alongside their English translations—that cover everything from specific musical terms and instructions to basic conversational Spanish. Additionally, Prosek and Nelson provide bilingual vocabulary cards ready-made for photocopying and convenient templates of bilingual letters to send home. The authors also dedicate three chapters to selecting repertoire with the ELL student in mind. Prosek and Nelson discuss how to choose linguistically and culturally diverse songs, and they include a carefully selected list of fifteen Spanish songs and fifteen English songs—complete with music notation, teaching suggestions, and translations—to put to use in the classroom right away. Designed for music teachers with any level of experience with Spanish, Spanish for Music Teachers is the perfect music curriculum companion. This much-needed resource equips teachers with the practical tools to immediately make a significant and lasting impact on all students. Jacob Prosek is a general music teacher and choir conductor in Lombard, Illinois, and Heidi Nelson is a fourth grade Spanish Dual Language teacher in Naperville, Illinois.

Blessed Dawn, created by award-winning songwriter Tony Wood, with narration by Dr. Heidi Petak and arrangements and orchestrations by Daniel Semsen, is one of the most profound and provocative Easter musicals in recent history.Just as the songs portray a landscape of both old and new, the landscape of performance levels found in Blessed Dawn range from the intuitive and accessible to the moderately challenging.

This new work calls out to those who hear it, urging that you present it with great focus and a special commitment to sharing the message of the Gospel and the power of His resurrection. We pray a special blessing on you and your choir, orchestra, soloists, narrators and media teams, as you present the story of Easter in...Blessed Dawn.Song Titles: The Life * Resurrection Hymn Medley includes Christ the Lord Is Risen Today, He Lives and Crown Him with Many Crowns * Wondrous Cross (Underscore 1) * Cross of Christ * It Was Finished (Underscore 2) * The Day Before * Then Came the Morning * Blessed Dawn of Easter's Day with Alleluia!

Dimitri Stepanowitsch Bortniansky (1751-1825) seems to have composed the majority of his liturgical works and most of his Sacred Concertos in the 1780s and 1790s, before he was appointed Kapellmeister to the court ensemble in St. Petersburg. Heidi Kirmsse has added a German singing text to the five most popular pieces from the complete volume (CV 4.111). The festive Concerto no. 6 Ehre sei Gott in der Hohe is for Christmas, and no. 9 Heut ist der Tag, den Gott, der Herr, gemacht for Easter. No. 15 Lasst uns singen, kommt herbei is in the major key and is a very effective piece. Tchaikovsky edited Bortniansky's sacred works and is said to have particularly admired no. 32 O lass mich, Herr, mein Gott, erkennen mein Ziel. Bortniansky himself probably best liked no. 33 Sag, meine Seele, warum verzagest du? The work was sung at his funeral.*addition to the choral repertoire with works from the Orthodox liturgy/ Eastern Europe*includes the original Church Slavonic text underlaid (in transliteration).*effective solo/tutti alternations.

The High Songs, a commission from 12 bands across the country, became a 24-minute suite for Amplified Cello and Chamber Winds of five movements, an instrumental song cycle featuring the solo cello in high tessitura. The calm opening (Nepenthe) is followed by a big band evocation (Moto Perpetuo). Pann further explores the ensemble with Passacaglias and Adjusting the Torque (a nod to fellow composer Michael Torke), then finishes the suite with a simple Song for Heidi, which features a piano duet. When Carter Pann writes a substantial work exploring the vitality and colors of the wind ensemble, the results are guaranteed to be ravishing.

Concert Duets is a collection of 14 arrangements of works by prominent 18th-century composers, mostly taken from Trio Sonatas. Duet 11 is a Jim Self original work in the Rococo style; and Duets 12, 13 and 14 are arrangements of the three-movements of the Bach Concerto for Two Violins. Included with this edition are play-along recorded tracks by tubist Zach Collins, who also served as editor of the current edition.I created these duets as Christmas gifts for my tuba playing friends, with the first duet being arranged in 1976. All 14 of the duets are challenging and fun to play and are especially effective as concert pieces.As a young musician I had the privilege of playing duets with many of the world’s finest tubists including Harvey Phillips, John Fletcher, Bob Pallansch, Chester, Schmitz, Dan Perantoni, Toby Hanks, Ron Bishop, Winston Morris and Tommy Johnson. I learned more about playing music in these duo sessions than from any other musical activity I have ever experienced. Duets are powerful teaching tools for learning and mastering rhythm, phrasing and intonation and for developing overall musicianship.Jim Self:Self (b. 1943) is a Los Angeles free-lance musician, a veteran of thousands of Hollywood motion pictures, television shows and records, and tuba soloist on many prominent movies.
