Q. Im desperate to find this arrangement of background for this song! Please help! Ok this is kinda a tough list of demands but I really need:
-The same key as the original
-All instruments, not just piano
-A happy ending. No scary minor chord where all the Oz people sing "look at her shes wicked" ugh
This would be soooo perfect if anyone knows where I might find this track! Thank you
A. Try searching the Itunes database, I've done a lot of Wicked covers and I've got most of my instrumentals from there. :) Hope I helped!
Also could you answer my question? Thanks!

Does anybody know georges guilhaud's biogragphy??
Q.
A. There is nothing on the databases about the composer except Georges Guilhaud (1851-19??) per Library of Congress.
[Can anyone find a death date?]
Information about publications of his most famous work.
Guilhaud, Georges. Premiere Concertino. Paris: Costallat, 1910.
Originally for oboe but often used by clarinetists. Costallat now owned by Jobert/Lemoine.
>> The Georges Guilhaud First Concertino for saxâ¦do you know if an orchestration exists?
>> The student is using an edition that's an arrangement by H.Voxman published by Rubank.
--
Rubank did not publish an orchestration and is now owned by Hal Leonard who does not have any orchestra rentals. They list under the title First Concertino the Rubank publications for Clarinet,
Oboe, Alto Sax, Tenor Sax but do not give the Composer!
>>> Billaudot publishes a version for piano and sax. They also publish a First Concertino for Oboe. This might be the same piece, originally for oboe and transcribed for sax. Even so there doesn't seem to be any mention in the Billaudot catalogue of an
orchestrated version. Only one recording mentioned on the web, using oboe and piano.
Billaudot does publishes an orchestration for the Oboe edition but you should check to see it it matches the Voxman arrangement.

Georges Guilhaud: Premier concertino en sol mineur
1883 Editions: Costallat, Southern (Fifteen grands solos)
The Guilhaud Concertino opens with two forte statements in the piano,each followed by ascending
staccati oboe scales in a recitative. The opening lyrical theme shows off the upper and middle ranges
of the oboe, while the secondary theme bears a motivic resemblance to the opening chords. The
ensuing operatic Andante is followed by an Allegretto dominated by more ascending scales and an increasingly important triplet figure, the work concluding with a high G above the staff.
Second Prix: Bertain
Premier Accessit: Henri Gundstoett
Désiré-Alfred Lalande
Second Accessit: Louis-Jean-Baptiste Bas
(Solo Oboe, Opéra; Société des Concerts du Conservatoire)
====================
http://www.idrs.org/www.idrs/publications2/journal2/jnl12/rep.html
The Guilhaud Concertino replaces the normal Classic sonata-ritornello form opening movement with much simpler materials. There is no
orchestral ritornello [and] I have even come to suspect that this work may have never reached the orchestration stage under Monsieur Guilhaud. The Verroust 4th Solo de Concert, which is scored for oboeand strings rather than full orchestra, begins like Kalliwoda's Concertino insofar as the first movement is concerned. But it lacks a B theme in this truncated movement.
I should like to mention that within this modified group of concerti there is a definite trend to construct the final movement as a polacca (Polonaise) in rondo format. This is true for the following: Weber Concertino, Bellini Concerto, Verroust Fourth Solo de Concert, and Guilhaud Concertino. (Although perhaps in the Guilhaud we are closer to the Bolero!) The last movement of the Guilhaud is very truncated: A-B-closing theme and therefore lacks the rondo format.
Music theory sources for this composer?
Q. I've been listening to a lot of Messiaen lately and I've have discovered through brief analysis that as far as harmonies go, it is obvious that he commonly uses major triads with augmented fourths (tritones) in addition to incomplete dominant seventh chords with an added sixth or dominant thirteenth chord.
I am familiar with his "mode of limited transpositions," "non-retrogradable rhythms" and his wonderful deployment of "additive" rhythms, and I have enjoyed Neidhöfer's brilliant discussion on Messiaen's voice-leading patterns in modal systems of cardinalities other than 12, but are there any other sources that will discuss his compositional techniques in further detail?
I have also read (and played) his treatise Technique de mon langage musical ("The technique of my musical language"), but I still feel that I am not understanding everything that he is doing compositionally. Any advice is appreciated!
A. Here's some articles I found.

I got all these from going onto EBSCOhost, then going to the Music Index Online database. Here's a link to all the articles in English that include the words "Messiaen" and "theory" somewhere in the text: http://web.ebscohost.com.erl.lib.byu.edu/ehost/resultsadvanced?vid=10&hid=120&sid=d6304db0-f8e2-4562-9eee-f62201d2edab%40sessionmgr107&bquery=(TX+(+Messiaen+))+and+(TX+(+theory+))&bdata=JmRiPW1haCZjbGkwPUxBMTAmY2x2MD1FbmdsaXNoJnR5cGU9MSZzaXRlPWVob3N0LWxpdmUmc2NvcGU9c2l0ZQ%3d%3d
From those I just gave you the most promising looking ones. Hope some of these can help you! You'll just have to find the right journals at a library. Good luck!
