Jiriyai
By Michael Atherton
Regular price
$15.00
Cross-cultural percussion and dance. c.12'00A cross cultural 'comprovisation' for musician and dancer, using mainly percussion (tuned and non tuned) instruments and sound making objects. The piece is developed through an improvisation on composed motives, number sequences and irregular rhythms. This is tempered by a collaborative interaction with a dancer. The dancer listens, watches and engages with an eclectic mix of instrumental colours and textures; the musician watches, listens and responds to a vocabulary of dance gestures; chooses material according to the ebb and flow of the interaction that occurs. Jiriyai! means war cry in the Sydney language. It is dedicated to Pemulwuy, who led a resistance movement against invading Europeans.

Job Pilgrim
By Vivien Arnold
Regular price
$150.00
Ideal Music Theatre work.
This work was informed and inspired by many contemporary theologians, psychologists, scientists and poets including Cynthia Bourgeault, Richard Dawkins, Richard Rohr, John Saxbee, Eckhart Tolle, and Keith Ward, and those now dead including Meister Ekhart, TS Eliot, John Greenleaf Whittier, Hafiz, G M Hopkins, Rainer Rilke, Rumi, and in particular Carl Jung. Their words have been used both as quotes and libretti throughout. Biblical texts have also been used. The work is based on the Book of Job. Inspiration also came from doctors, nursing staff and patients.
The script is loosely modelled on a miracle play. The music is enigmatic in the use of keys: Bb (be flat); C (see); C# (see sharply), B (Be); although, for the sake of variety, this idea isn’t used exclusively.
The choir of pilgrims, the quartet and many of the solos and duets by Christof and Sophia, act like a Greek chorus, commenting on the play.
Although this is conceived as a dramatised oratorio, the music could stand alone as a whole or as separate items. A second script - Faith Re-Found - (included as an addendum) is provided to hold much of the music together for performance as an oratorio with no dramatics.

Journey, The
By Mark Matthews
Regular price
$25.00
6 piano solos on life, love and friendship. Grades 3 – 5.Everyone loves a good road trip - the excitement and expectation as The Journey begins, the feeling of freedom on the open road, the anticipation of what lies around the bend, the indecisiveness when choosing a road to take, the anxiety of being lost, at night, on a lonely lane, and finally the welcoming familiarity of the homeward adventure.
Life, like the “road trip” is a journey, with its hope of something new, its spectacular vistas, its twists and turns, of unknown and exhilarating choices, its darkness when we feel we’ve made a wrong turn and the sense of homecoming when it ‘all comes together’.
The metaphor is played out here in this six-piece suite, of intermediate studies featuring both minor and major keys with modulatory explorations.

Joy is Here to Stay
By Kathleen Mcguire
Regular price
$12.00
SATB choir and piano. An anthem in tribute to Gospel Music, c.3'45
The words are adapted from a nineteenth century hymn "Joy cometh in the morning" by Mrs MM Weinland (1819-1899).
The Hymn appeal to singers and audiences of a wide range of beliefs and backgrounds, while still being relevant in formal church settings. The anthem would not be difficult for most school or church choirs to learn (large forces are not necessary). The text is biblical (based on Psalm 30:5), but not overtly religious. Nonetheless, the joyous theme and “hallelujah” section make it suitable for Easter celebrations, while a brief reference to the spiritual “Go Tell It On The Mountain” suggests Advent or Christmas.
