11410FBCF41D-C80C-44DB-8083-679E7E43C2E7M802390Twinkle Twinkle Little StarSuzuki violinists and kids the world over know this tune, and Mozart's set of twelve variations for piano has pleased pianists and audiences for years. Clark McAlister's string orchestra arrangement adds to the fun with idiomatic string writing while keeping the composer's intentions.String Orchestra
11420FC188EF-2739-49D3-8D9B-6323B916A958A400902Aida: Act II, Triumphal March and Ballet Music (original version)AIDA, with music by Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901) and a libretto by Antonio Ghislanzoni, is a staple of the operatic repertoire. The story, set in the Old Kingdom of Egypt, tells of tragic love challenged by jealousy and loyalty to country and family. Commissioned by Cairo’s Khedivial Opera House, it was premiered there on December 24th, 1871 in a performance conducted by Giovanni Bottesini, although, due to a limited audience, Verdi considered the performance at La Scala in Milan on February 8th, 1872 to be the true premiere. The Triumphal March and Ballet from the opera has become a part of popular culture, showcasing the grand spectacle found in opera.Mix Chorus with Orchestra or Piano accompaniment
11430FC832F8-0032-4CBA-8D68-CFEB4E07B78CA218502Swan Lake Suite, Op. 20aWhile the original ballet, the story of Prince Siegfried's love for the Swan Queen, enchanted by the evil magician Rotbart to turn into a swan everyday, more or less succeeded at its 1877, Moscow premiere, Tchaikovsky was very concerned that the music be saved from the oblivion common to ballet scores. Inspired by the French composer Delibes, he thought to create a concert suite of the music. No further correspondence on the idea exists, but a Swan Lake Suite, Op. 20a was published seven years after Tchaikovsky's death in 1900, containing six numbers from the ballet, though it remains uncertain whether they were selected by the composer or someone else, leaving the exact authorship of the suite unknown. This edition offered by Carl Simpson pulls from multiple sources and restores the final movement to its rightful place at the end while retaining three wonderful dance movements that were added to a later Soviet score, bringing the number of movements to nine, though it may performed as the original suite of six movements merely by omitting the additional three movements from performance. Movements: 1. Scene, 2. Valse, 3. Danse de Cygnes, 4. Pas d'Action, 5. Czardas - Danse Hongroise, 6. Danse Espagnole, 7. Danse Napolitaine, 8. Mazurka, 9. Scene et Finale.

11440FC89ADE-FDB0-417E-9F11-EB88C55633C1D410001Piano Concerto No. 3 in Solo VersionI have finally decided to re-create the already-daunting "Rach 3" into an even more horrifying but also emotionally satisfying project, which was to make such a large-scale arrangement for solo piano requesting the pianist to combine both the piano and the orchestral accompaniment of Rachmaninoff’s original crowning achievement, thus merging an 80-people orchestral sonority onto one person. The process of this project was one of the most artistically educational experiences for me, as I couldn’t just take the original score and copy and paste it onto the same instrument, which would’ve been meaningless and would simply sound like a mess. One has to really work as a sensitive composer to know the differences between the timbres and colors of the piano and that of the orchestra, which requires me to re-arrange registers, minor shifts of structural obstacles, avoidance of over-toned harmonies, and attempt to make it sound like as if it was conceived originally as a grand solo piano sonata instead of just some crazy transcription for showing off. I hope this new version of the "Rach 3" can achieve a different kind of in-depth virtuosity and emotional scope and that it may attract interest from my comtemporary and future pianists or musicians worldwide.Solo Piano

11480FDC2A22-BC28-4D51-A5B8-F4457488A71BS516La Forza Del DestinoThis prelude to Verdi's first opera was composed in 1868 as part of an overall revision of the opera, and it is in the revised version that work is known today. This overture, while not in way following the tragic events of the opera, functions as a symphonic treatment of music heard within the opera. Originally transcribed by Mark Rogers in 1980, this newer edition has been revised to account for the changes in the concept of the wind band to better suit contemporary usage.Concert Band
11490FDEE8A7-40E7-4F27-99B7-8B79133217ECA630202Maskarade, F. 39/ CNW 2: OvertureCarl Nielsen's (1865-1931) three-act opera buffa MASKARADE (MASQUERADE) was written between 1904 and 1906, though Nielsen had first begun to consider an opera based on Ludvig Holberg's play of the same name several years earlier. Having enlisted the help of his friend Vilhelm Andersen to write the libretto, Nielsen started composing, and the Royal Theatre expressed their enthusiasm by scheduling the opera before it was finished. When it premiered on November 11, 1906, the opera was a great success, and it has since been deemed Denmark's national opera. The overture is evidence of the rushed nature of some of the composition, with Nielsen completing it on November 3, only a week before the opera premiered.

Although such a work was never completed, Belgian violinist Ovide Musin tackled this standalone, technically challenging piece. The composer subsequently dedicated it to him.

11530FF0114B-0C8C-4D92-822F-87654B36BE38A288802Songs to Poems by Rueckert; No. 3: Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen, high voice (F, transposed)Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) composed SONGS TO POEMS BY RUECKERT (SONGS AFTER RÜCKERT; RÜCKERT-LIEDER) between 1901 and 1902. They were not conceived of as a cycle, with each song only connected by the poet Friedrich Rückert and the themes. But they were published together, first as SIEBEN LIEDER AUS LETZTER ZEIT (SEVEN SONGS OF LATTER DAYS) with two additional Mahler songs, then with only the five songs. They have simply come to be known as Rückert-Lieder and are now most frequently performed together, although Mahler did set other Rückert poems aside from these five. The third song, ICH BIN DER WELT ABHANDEN GEKOMMEN (I AM LOST TO THE WORLD), transposed to the key of F in this version for high voice, distills the lonely plight of the artist forgotten by the world but finding solace in art and introspection. Upon reflection, Mahler once declared, “It is truly me.” Instrumentation: 0.1+EH.2.2: 2.0.0.0: Hp: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Solo High Voice.

11560ff9c729-9e39-11f0-a418-0022482c968250100355Beauty of Their Dreams, TheThe most teachable point in this early band masterpiece lies in the realm of dynamics. Some range elements make it more suitable for the middle or end of the first year. Percussion emphasis is on creating good, even beautiful, sounds rather than a rhythmic ostinato. This will help you make the beauty of their sound the beauty of your dreams.Concert Band
115710011FD5-F0DC-4358-AADE-532752A1408920412106Square Dance and RoundThis flute trio is fun to play. It is not as difficult as it looks because the fingerings and rhythms lie well for the flute, meaning that if the players are competent, they can take a fast tempo and be successful. The title is a play on words because the contrasting theme is actually a round, and you could square dance to the principal theme. It was first composed and published for trumpet trio, and was successful enough to write it for flutes.Flute Trio
