Testimonials and feedbacks:Halleluja - sophisticated arrangement of Cohen's Classic - Clarinet QuintetFebruar 07, 2017 Interesting arrangement, works well with good high school players. Bass clarinet down to low D. Excellent choice for concert program. Wonderful Tonight - Eric Clapton - String TrioAugust 26, 2017 Great arrangement and sight-readable Thank you for the music - ABBA - Saxophone QuartetAugust 18, 2017 This arrangement can bee used for outside or inside playing. Very melodic and comforting harmonies. True to the original, flowing and graceful. Libertango (shorter version) - Astor Piazolla - Tango Nuevo - Clarinet QuartetAugust 11, 2017 Good arrangement of a Piazzolla Tango. We will have to do some work to get it to performance quality but the piece really gives the tango feel and is enjoyable to play. Yellow Bird - Haitian Folk Song - Calypso - String OrchestraMärz 05, 2017 Our quasi intermediate level quartet loves this song. You just have to feel the music and not get bogged down with counting everything. I confess, we play the 1st half twice and end before the key change. Not a difficult change but it was an easy option for us. So... The House of the Rising Sun - Clarinet QuintetApril 24, 2016 Clarinet Fusion, a San Francisco Bay Area clarinet choir, performed your clarinet quintet version of The House of the Rising Sun at a private dinner for 100 military veterans a few days back. As we begin playing your arrangement, the dinner guests suddenly became quiet and all eyes and ears were tuned in to us. They loved this piece! The arrangement you wrote sat very well for our 9 clarinetists and instrumentation for this piece of Bb clarinet 1-4, alto clarinet, bass clarinet, and contrabass clarinet (on the bass clarinet part). Thanks so much for your wonderful rendition! I will be watching to see if you write more arrangements for clarinet quintet/clarinet ensemble of rock music that was popular in the 60's/early 70's, as we have an audience that is asking for more of it... Oh Christmas tree ( Oh Tannenbaum ) - Funky - Brass Quintet November 11, 2015 We are preparing our new program and found that funky arrangement, great luck for us! Looking forward for the first gigs, this song will catch the audience! Oh Christmas tree ( Oh Tannenbaum ) - Funky - Brass Quintet November 11, 2015 We are preparing our new program and found that funky arrangement, great luck for us! Looking forward for the first gigs, this song will catch the audience! Yellow Bird - Haitian Folk Song - Calypso - Clarinet QuartetOktober 30, 2015 Fun arrangement for clarinet quartet. Very enjoyable harmonies with some movement of melody to different voices in the quartet. The digital download process went very smoothly. I highly recommend this arrangement. Solang der alte Peter – Oktoberfest – Munich City anthem - Saxophone QuartetOktober 18, 2015 Nicely written and captures the sound that I envision as Oktoberfest, with a sentimental waltz and that Ooompah feel. Mr Graf doesn't disappoint writing in an intermediate grade and filling the song with warmth. Wir sind allerbester Laune (Sax 4tet)Oktober 13, 2015 This is a joyous song of light hearted fun. We played this at our Oktoberfest family outing and it fit right in. The title says it all. El Condor pasa - Peruvian Folk Song - Saxophone QuartetOktober 12, 2015 Again, suggested Mr Graf arrange a version for quartet. within hours it seems , maybe it was a day or so, out comes this splendid rendition of an old familiar tune but with elegance and textures I wasn't expecting. Good control and dynamic expression and this tune satisfies in many... Sloop John B. - Saxophone Quartet Oktober 10, 2015 A delightful rendition of one of my favorite tunes. How you can respond so quickly is remarkable with such high quality arrangements. I love everything about how this came out especially that it contains bass sax parts. Who's got the blues - Brass QuintetMai 16, 2015 I work with a brass quintet I formed at the local high school, and one of the things my kids struggle with is reading and interpreting swing rhythms. I have tried different ways to get them used to them, including playing scales in swing. When it comes to actually playing them in the setting of an actual piece, they are still struggling. I was looking for something for them that would be within their skill level that would still be challenging enough to be instructive, and after listening to the sound clip, I knew I had found what I was looking for! This is a straight ahead arrangement that falls within the range of my players. The solos parts are written out and sound great! The arrangement is also good enough for more advanced level quintets to play during a program. I definitely recommend it! Solang der alte Peter – Oktoberfest – Munich City anthem - Brass QuintetMai 16, 2015 I ordered this piece for the high school brass quintet I formed. I was stationed in Germany in Heidelberg and I have played hundreds of fest tents, and this piece captures that feel very well. It is well arranged, and the only thing I would have done differently is simplify the scoring to make the repeat not so long by shortening the phrases and ending so it was not so taxing on the endurance of my trumpet players. The kids enjoy playing it, and that is what counts! The range of some of the instruments is why I would rate it higher than intermediate.
