Composers and Authors

Natalie's Suite

By Mark John Mcencroe

Regular price $150.00 Sale

Three movement symphonic suite for piano and orchestra.   c.40'00
Three Faces of Addiction.   Composed 2014.

The work focuses on the dilemma of addiction.  The overriding tragedy of this malady is denial, and the absolute obsession that one day, the sufferer will gain control over their problem. The insanity of doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result, is at the core of addiction. To illustrate this the composer has deliberately stayed in the home key throughout the entire work, to emphasise this aspect of addiction and create a “tragic soundscape”.

Conductor's score includes a CD of the work performed by The Janacek Philharmonic Orchestra.

Necronomicon

By Larry Sitsky

Regular price $90.00 Sale

18 Aphorisms for clarinet and piano.  Advanced.

Clarinetists familiar with Sitsky's masterful clarinet writing in his works, such as  Vartarun for solo clarinet, and Zuqerq for clarinet and bongos, though the challengesto the player in those works are not insignificant, the player is rewarded with idiomatic writing for the instrument, and a wealth of musical material, the genius of which often becomes clear after a long familiarity with the work. Necronomicon,  should likewise be welcomed to the clarinetist's repertoire.

Edited by Edward Neeman and Eloise Fisher

Composed 1989

        Nest in the Rose Bush, The

        By Miriam Hyde

        Regular price $15.00 Sale

        Piano Solo. Grade 3

        When Miriam Hyde went to the Ursuline Convent in Ashbury (a suburb of Sydney) in November 1964 to examine piano students, she was shown a nest in a rose bush, containing baby birds. She was very touched by this incident in Nature and wrote this piece promptly to send to the staff and their pupils.  Two years later when it was first published, Miss Hyde sent a printed copy to the Convent. It happened to be the same time of year. She received a letter of thanks, which included this paragraph:'I love the little piece, and never walk among those roses without remembering it and its inspiration. The little birds are still around, but too wise now, ever to build again in that rose bush!'.  Christine Edwards July 2016
        Date of composition 1966.
