Medieval Dance
A secular tune from the Medieval era, “Amours, que porra devenir” (O love, what will become of me), was composed by trouvére Thibaut de Blason, probably around 1200 AD. This arrangement for beginners is scored in 3/4 time and brings the vivid history back to life. Carefully scored, this piece offers both a history lesson and reinforcement of triple meter. Great for teaching and performance! (2:00)SKU: AL43082 -

Medieval Fanfare and Chant
This piece is based entirely upon Pérotin’s “Viderunt Omnes.” A member of the Notre Dame School, Pérotin was a pioneer in three- and four-voice polyphony. “Viderunt Omnes” is one of the few remaining pieces of organum quadruplum known to exist. “Medieval Fanfare and Chant” alternates between the literal presentation of the music and a more contemporary setting of the themes, going back and forth until the final grandiose statement.SKU: AL35390 -

Meeting at Tryon Palace
Described by the composer as “bombastic, but with a groove” this work for young players opens with striking percussion statements. The band enters gradually, first with unison figures along with the percussion, and then additional layers. A contrasting slow section with flowing lines and minor harmonies sets the stage for the dramatic final section. A great way to showcase your percussion section. Dur: 4:10 (Grade 2)SKU: HL04002867 -

Metrix is a multi-meter, jazz inspired composition. The infectious rhythms and tuneful melodies are highlighted by the driving percussion riffs that propel the music through a variety of styles, moods, and textures. The title is a play on words combining the word “matrix” that refers to a mathematical array of numbers, and “metric” that relates to the variety of meters used in the piece.SKU: AL36690 -
