Par D'ADAMO DANIEL. The starting point for the composition of this piece was the musical observation of sound materials that were both tiny and extremely detailed, expressing a strong musical potential. Nano-sounds, materials which belong to a relatively small and hardly perceptible acoustic world which through composition, are projected on a much wider listening scale. This change of perspective,…

Tomasi was born in Marseille, but his Father and Mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica.

Mostly remembered for his great compositions, during his life Edward Elgar was also a violin teacher.These six short studies, presented in a progressive order of didactic difficulty, are, despite their simplicity, very musical. They can be played in the first position, but require the knowledge of all fingering patterns. The compositions are set in C major, A minor and G major with occasional modu…

Par KNUSSEN OLIVER. Edward Greenfield says 'Taking the word Hum literally, Knussen has subjected A.A.Milne to some lighthearted but intense expressionist treatment, even developing a series of aphorisms which present such incidents as Piglet meeting the Heffalump with an economy and compression that Webern might have envied' The Guardian 15th June 1983, / Niveau : Elémentaire / Répertoire / Condu…

Par MENA MARIA. Here’s an easy arrangement of this popular Christmas song composed by Maria Mena and Martin Sjølie. I have tried to spread the melody to several groups throughout the arrangement. The melody has to be played rhythmically, but also with flow and legato style. Please strive for best possible intonation and balance where the melody is played by several players. At bar 13, flugelhorn a…

Requiem. Par SUPPE FRANZ VON. Franz Suppè wrote his Requiem not as a humanistic or pantheistic lament for the dead, but as a work created on the basis of firm Christian and Catholic faith. The fact that Suppè succeeded in writing a Requiem which remains within the theological-liturgical bounds without sacrificing the values of an autonomous work of art is perhaps the greatest - although hitherto u…

Par VAUGHAN WILLIAMS RALPH. The Piano Quintet in C is a substantial and superbly written work lasting some 30 minutes. The first movement, marked Allegro con fuoco, is expansive, loquacious and filled with late romantic passion, its harmonies Brahmsian for the most part but tinged with modality in the quieter passages. The expressive romantic melody of the Andante second movement is fully characte…

Pour Précéder La Péri. Par DUKAS PAUL. Paul Dukas (1865-1935) was a composer who had little self-confidence and was very self-critical. As a result of this he destroyed the manuscripts of all but seven large and five small works. Luckily kept what is now his best know composition, the symphonic scherzo L’apprenti sorcier (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice). He also came very close to destroying the manusc…
