Nel cor più non mi sento by Giovanni Paisiello
(1740-1816)
When Alessandro Parisotti included this work in his
collection of Arie Antiche (1885), he created a solo
version by including only the first 28 measures of the duet.
He also changed the key to F major and added ornaments
without preserving the original melody. The song was later
included in G. Schirmer's Twenty-Four Italian Songs and
Arias. It is in this form that the duet has become familiar to
modern audiences. In concert, it is typically repeated with
the repeat being more heavily ornamented.

Gia il sole dal Gange by Alessandro Scarlatti
Gia il sole dal Gange was composed by Alessandro Scarlatti (1660 -
1725) and Words by Felice Parnasso. He was an Italian Baroque
composer especially famous for his operas and chamber cantatas. The
words to this canzonetta celebrate the dethroning of the night by the
glory of the sun, sparkling on the river Ganges. The opera from which
this piece is derived is set in Algeria, in North Africa. John Glenn Paton
observes that “dal Gange” is merely a figure of speech meaning the
east. Scarlatti composed this opera (his second) at age nineteen. This is
one of Scarlatti’s best known and most performed arias. Its strongly
rhythmic, spirited melody is set in two strophes, which are tiny ABA
forms. The opera this aria is from is entitled L’Honestà negli
amori (Honesty in Love Affairs)(1680). The aria is sung by Saldino, a
pageboy, standing alone on stage admiring the sunrise.

Vittoria, mio core! by Giacomo Carissimi
“Vittoria, mio core” is a Baroque Italian song written by Giacomo Carissimi.
He was an Italian composer and music teacher. He was highly influential in
musical developments in north European countries through his pupils and the
wide dissemination of his music. The piece starts with a lively exposition of
the first theme, ending with a jubilantly extended run on the word "sciolta"
(shattered.) The setting also repeats the word "vittoria" (victory) 14 times,
more than any other in the text. After this aria, the tempo slows for a
recitative-like passage and then returns to the opening; this pattern repeats
with another recitative section and a final repeat of the opening. Carissimi
used this same structure in other secular cantatas. The piece does not
celebrate a military victory but rather an emotional one. "Victory, victory,
victory, my heart! No more tears, no more tears, love's vile servitude is
shattered!" declares the liberated erstwhile lover. In addition to the martial
tempo and boastful words, the long runs also let the singer show off.

Amarilli, Mia Bella by Giulio Caccini
Amarilli, mia bella (“Amaryllis, my beauty”) is the oldest song in the 24th
Italian songs and arias and the best known of the solo madrigals that Giulio
Caccini included in his Le nuove musiche of 1602. The lyrics are brief and
simple, taken from a passage in Guarini’s Il pastor fido (“The Faithful
Shepherd”). The verse alludes to the Greek myth of Amaryllis who, picking
flowers on a mountainside, falls in love with the shepherd Alteus. He,
however, is interested only in flowers, and says that he can love only the girl
who brings him a new flower. Amaryllis follows the advice of the Oracle at
Delphi, Taking a temple arrow and waiting on Alteus’s doorstep each night,
piercing her breast and her heart as she calls his name and because of the
shepherd’s dilatory response, she is obliged to repeat her action for thirty
nights, after which he finally emerges to find a beautiful flower where her
blood has fallen. Naturally, the flower was named in her honour. Caccini’s
setting too is deceptively simple, the words are sung from beginning to end,
the second sentence repeated to the same music, giving the singer an
opportunity to emphasize the significance of the appeal through variation.
It closes with an ornamented repetition of the final line.

Nel cor più non mi sento by Giovanni Paisiello
Nel cor più non mi sento is a duet from Giovanni Paisiello’s 1788
opera L'amor contrastato, ossia La molinara, usually known as La
Molinara (The Miller-Woman).The duet is sung twice in the
opera's second act, first by the miller-woman Rachelina (soprano)
and Calloandro (tenor) and then by Rachelina and the notary
Pistofolo (baritone).The duet is notable as its theme has been
used many times as a basis for other musical works, and due to its
inclusion in Alessandro Parisotti's 1885 collection Arie Antiche, the
song has secured a place in classical vocal pedagogy. This
charming little ditty about vexation in love it not too serious and
it has a long and illustrious history for a piece so minute and
seemingly casual. Beethoven wrote a series of piano variations
based on this song. This Italian aria is very frequently performed
ornamented and has expertise for showing up all sorts of places.

The Three Camps by By Frank Arsenault arrange by
John S. Pratt
This piece composed by Frank Arsenault and rearrange by John
S.Pratt. "Three Camps" is named as such because of its three
variations: Camp 1 in Rolls; Camp 2 in Paradiddles and Camp
3 in Ratamacues. The precision of each variation is that the
accented notes are a single stroke with the entire solo sounding
as a continuous Role, Paradiddle or Ratamacue exercise. "Three
Camps" is from the Revolutionary War period and is not an
easy study. It takes a lot of practice to play each variation to
its proper speed. It is meant to sound like: 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4, 1 2
3 4, 1 2 3 4. The accents are on counts 1 2 3 and the
unaccented single stroke is on count 4 except in measure 3.

E KEDVE
E KEDVE is a snare drum solo piece compose by
anonymous. This piece sound interesting with some dynamic
and rudiment. The actual buzz roll and dynamic should be
apply and to be played clearly so it can be tight. I would
hit the buzz roll with mode of triplet because it make me
easier to plat it increase of decrease the volume. The
accent also have to be played so clearly because in
certain part the accent is needed to be played. I found
myself that I have to control the sticking and apply it for
dynamic and this piece was great to be perfomed

QUIERE BAILAR
Quiere Bailar is a timpani solo compose by anonymous.
Quiere Bailar in Spanish word stand for “Do You Want To
Dance?”. This timpani solo could be a replacement for a
bass solo player.this is because it has a spunky, rhythmic
attitude. Exaggerating the accents will help to fortify the
syncopation where staccato markings are indicated, a firm
pinch of the mallet and speedy stroke with a quick lift will
also enhance the contrast.
