As recorded by the great Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra on the album Suite For Pops, this ballad showcases the breathy sound of flutes, the mellow sound of short flugelhorn solos (written lines provided), and the warmth of an improvised solo chorus for trombone.

Origi nally written for violin and piano, William Grant Still's Suite for Violin and Orchestra was inspired by significant artists of the Harlem Renaissance.  Each of the three movements depict three sculptures created in the 1930s: Richmond Barthé’s African Dancer, Sargent Johnson’s Mother and Child, and Augusta Savage’s Gamin. The suite follows traditional fast-slow-fast Classical form. The first movement, African Dancer, illustrates the unrestrained urgency of the dancing figure using varying tempi and hints of the jazz. Mother and Child, later arranged for string orchestra alone, sings a gently syncopated melody in a soothing lullaby. The final movement, like the child in the sculpture Gamin, invokes mischievous and playful motifs with blues-infused fiddle techniques.

Graham Lyons's lively mind is apparent in this arrangement of Christmas carols for wind ensemble created to mixed-ability ensembles to make music together. Part I is the most demanding while Parts 2 and 3 are more simplified. Then there are 'filler' parts for beginning musicians. The parts can be doubled however your needs and tastes desire. The sheet music includes a score and double sets of parts and is sure to be a concert favourite, includingmelodies of The Wassail Song, The Holly and The Ivy, Away in a Manger, The Coventry Carol and Unto Us A Boy Is Born.Graham Lyons is something of a polymath, which is not that unusual among musicians. Originally a pianist, heswitched to clarinet when he was inspired by Benny Goodman, but he also plays jazz bassoon. Lyons has performed with Orchestras and ensembles throughout the world, both in live performance and on broadcasts and recordings. Hehas written a book on Soviet international policy. If you or your students began your clarinet career on a Clarineo, a scaled-down instrument appropriate for younger students, then you have Lyons to thank as he is its inventor.
