When I Hear Music
Music and Lyrics by Brian Katona
Lyrics inspired by the Maurice Hawk Elementary School Chorus (2016)
2-Part Treble Chorus and Piano
Score available at:
http://stores.imaginemusicpublishing.com/when-i-hear-music/

A choral piece inspired by and inspiring to children both young and old, When I Hear Music is a beautiful yet simple composition for two-part voices with a flowing melody and heartfelt words. Brian Katona’s lyrics and music were inspired by the 2015–2016 third grade class at Maurice Hawk Elementary School, and the result is a touching tribute to the school and the children’s expression of the importance of music in their lives.

Whimsical and cheerful, with a super text for expressing the joy of music, this delightful unison or two-part treble piece will make a great concert opener for your elementary chorus.

While creating the score for this film, I wanted the viewer to experience a sense of pleasant nostalgia for small-town traditions that have come to pass. Two main themes were composed for the film. The first, a lyrical cello motif which represents LeRoy's (the barber) memories of times gone by. The second, an upbeat melody led by pizzicato strings harkening back to the Golden Age of the barbershop. These themes weave together throughout the score, sometimes in tandem, other times in discord. By the end of the film, a solo piano is heard and the two themes meet with full resolve.
