This Negro Spiritual was made popular by the Golden Gate Quartet in the 1930s. Willie T. Johnson, the lead singer of the group, is the father of Kevin P. Johnson the arranger of this version. The composer, like his father, uses rhythm in exciting new ways to deliver Negro Spirituals to contemporary audiences. The text of this spiritual has been interpreted in many different ways over the years. Here's a popular interpretation of the text. One for the little bitty baby born, born, born in Bethlehem: This refers to the infant Jesus. Two for Paul and Silas: This verse honors Paul and Silas who went on many missionary journeys to spread the teachings of Christ. Three for the Hebrew children: The three Hebrew children could be Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Four for the four that stood at the door: Many people interpret the four to be the four writers of the Gospel books - Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, though this does not explain the part about standing at the door. Five for the gospel preachers: The five are Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Peter. Paul is already mentioned above, in line two. Six for the six that never got fixed: Could this mean the sinners who never change their ways? Seven for the seven that went up to heaven: The seven in heaven could be the seven stars in Ursa Major or the sevenfold spirit of God or the seven early Christian churches or the seven stars in the right hand of Christ mentioned in the Revelation. Eight for the eight that stood at the gate: This could refer to the eight people who entered Noah's ark (Noah, his wife, their three sons and their wives). Nine for the nine that dressed so fine: This could refer to the nine orders of Angels in heaven. Ten for the ten commandments: This refers to the ten commandments given to Moses. Performance notes: Swing the 8th notes Djembe drums should be played freely with flexible precision The rap can be optional The ending solo can be sung down an octave and can be changed to match the ability of the soloist. Do not clap louder than you sing If doing choral movement on the piece, pay attention to detail synchronizing movements as much as possible. While the rap is words in rhythm, if adding one is not possible for your performance, consider a spoken word of your own choosing Have fun!.This Negro Spiritual was made popular by the Golden Gate Quartet in the 1930s.

We are often so focused on presenting the entire ensemble that it’s easy to forget we can also program solo feature pieces. There are so many reasons to do just that. It rewards that special player who has been working so hard. It sets an example for other players in the section. It provides a nice contrast regardless of what else is programmed. Be sure to put on the demonstration CD found in this catalog and hear Flight of Fancy for yourself. We’re sure you’ll like it.Scintillating!Met Flight of Fancy kunt u een solist (fluit of mallets) in de schijnwerpers plaatsen. We zijn zo vaak gericht op het orkest als geheel dat we wel eens vergeten om solowerken te programmeren, maar er zijn redenen te over omdat te doen. U kunt er een goede, hardwerkende muzikant mee belonen en anderen kunnen er een voorbeeld aan nemen. Bovendien creëert u een aangenaam contrast in uw concertprogramma. Deze muziek illustreert de vlucht die de verbeeldingskrachtvan een mens kan nemen - dan weer zorgeloos en grillig, dan weer beschouwend, maar altijd boeiend.Gibt es in Ihrem Blasorchester einen Flötisten oder Malletspieler, der sich mit Fleiß und Hingabe in der wöchentlichen Orchesterarbeit einen besonderen Auftritt im nächsten Konzert verdient hat? Flight of Fancy von Timothy Johnson ist eine wundervolle Gelegenheit, wahlweise einen Flötisten oder Malletspieler mit einem nicht allzu schweren Solostück ins Rampenlicht zu rücken!

Organists and congregations alike love trumpet tunes, and this book is perfect for organists with an instrument including a large trumpet stop that begs to be played on festive occasions. Brenda Portman has written six original trumpet tunes (each in a common key) that sit within the festive American trumpet tune tradition, as exemplified by the work of David N. Johnson. The volume also contains two hymn-based pieces in trumpet tune style.
