About this arrangement

Instrumental Duet Instrumental Duet,Piano - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.966749 Composed by Dillon Ekle. 20th Century,Christian,Easter,Sacred. Score and parts. 11 pages. Dillon Ekle #3068393. Published by Dillon Ekle (A0.966749). Taking inspiration from several prayers from the compline (nighttime prayer) liturgy of the Christian Church, this powerful, original composition moves through the shadows of evening, ultimately moving into the peace of God's watchful presence. While the specific inspiration came from the prayers found in the Anglican Breviary, variations on these prayers are found in Anglicanism, Lutheranism, Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, and many other denominations of Christianity.This piece, written for piano duet (1-piano, 4-hands), is appropriate for concerts, or as a prelude or other instrumental moment in a church service, especially evening services. While it is not specific to any season, the mood is also appropriate for services in Advent, Lent, Holy Week, or other times of reflection.Melodies move throughout the range of the piano and across both players. Both parts are of similar difficulty, and neither part is more featured than the other; a musical performance will require a strong sense of ensemble.An audio preview of this piece accompanied by the texts that inspired it can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_D3rlwQbYkThe PDF file is formatted to be printed double-sided. Once printed and bound, odd numbered pages (including the cover page) should be on the right (where the primo player sits), and even numbered pages should be on the left (where the secondo player sits). Alternatively, if two pianos are being used, the file can be printed single-sided and the parts separated out; the primo player will have the odd numbered pages, and the secondo player will have the even numbered pages.
