Concert Band - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.770366 Composed by Orlande De Lassus. Arranged by Ivan Marini. Instructional,Multicultural,Renaissance,Sacred,World. Score and parts. 39 pages. Www.dalsegno.eu #3867431. Published by www.dalsegno.eu (A0.770366). The most famous Renaissance choral piece for two antiphonal ensembles finally arranged for Winds and Percussions, featuring a Brass Quartet (two trumpets and two trombones).This enjoyable concert piece is also useful to develope tone quality, intonation, phrasing and expression of every ensemble.Even smaller groups and young bands can perform this piece, because the four original parts are mostly doubled. The difficulty grade is very reasonable.Every conductor will take advantage of the performance stage/location, staging the better arrangement for the four solists (plus opt. Tenor Drums) and the ensemble.The soloist should stay, generally speaking, far away from the audience to emphasize the echo effect.A piano part (reduction of the ensemble) is also included, for both performance and rehearsal.Complete set with score and parts: Solos (Trumpet 1+2, Trombone 1+2),Piccolo, Flute 1+2, Oboe (or Soprano sax), Bassoon,Clarinets 1+2+3+bass, Saxes AATB,Trumpets/Cornets 1+2+3, F/Eb Horn, Trombones 1+2+3,Euphonium/Baritone BC+TC, Tuba, String Bass,Piano, Timpani, Side Drum(s), Tenor Drum(s).Other transpositions (e.g. Bb Trombones TC) available for free at simply requestDuration ca. 3 mins., 39 pages.Feel free to contact me at info@dalsegno.eu for any other setting!Please, check my other works at www.sheetmusicplus.com/publishers/3025323or visit www.dalsegno.eu

Concert Band - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.971618 Composed by Jonathan S. Laflamme. Christian,Christmas,Contemporary,Sacred,Standards. Score and parts. 114 pages. Jonathan S. Laflamme #515247. Published by Jonathan S. Laflamme (A0.971618). HUMILITY by Jonathan S. Laflamme ©2012 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned. Isaiah 9:2* Humility seeks to draw attention to the Advent portion of the holiday season. This programmatic composition seeks to create an aural picture of the atmosphere both physically and spiritually in the eastern world B. C. and then try and connect it to Christmas traditions today. Students will really enjoyed rehearsing and performing this piece because of it’s programmatic nature, use of a plethora of percussion as well as some unusual uses of and combinations of instruments. Piccolo flute in the low register, soprano saxophone, open tom drums and oboe to create some Middle Eastern ambiance. Then, in order to create ‘the land of the shadow of death’ some unusual techniques call for whispers through instruments, french horns ringing their hands in and out of the bell, flutes playing on the head joints only, attaching a tenor saxophone mouthpiece to a euphonium and a baritone saxophone mouthpiece to a sousaphone. Add some trumpets and trombones playing only on their lead pipes and double reeds buzzing on just the reed and a haunting canvas to build the chaos of a world without salvation is created. Then, with the calming of the piano to present an extremely stark and hallow arrangement of the 7th century antiphon Veni Immanuel, ‘O Come, O Come Immanuel’ which crescendos to the coming of the savior at measure 128 precipitates the a highly antiphonal arrangement of ‘Joy to World.’ While this piece has some characteristics of ‘novelty band music’ there are plenty of technical demands that must be met in order to make it a legitimate concert band literature selection. *THE HOLY BIBLE: NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION®.

This is done in the beginning to show the intention of a beautiful creation story without death and in the end as kind of a, this is just the beginning, sentiment by way of a half cadence. After all, in regards to this composition, Christmas day is just the beginning of the purpose of the Word made flesh. While this piece has some characteristics of ‘novelty band music’ there are plenty of technical demands that must be met in order to make it a legitimate concert band literature selection. *THE HOLY BIBLE: NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION®.
