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…

Ergänzt Von Robert D. Levin. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. The Requiem is known to the general public in the version undertaken immediately after Mozart's death by his pupil Franz Yaver Süßmayr. The attacks against Süßmayr's completion began in 1825, when the so-called 'Requiem Controversy' erupted. Over the last decade a number of musicians have attempted to cleanse the Requiem of the deficiencies…

WAB 24. Par BRUCKNER ANTON. What does early Bruckner sound like' The Magnificat in B flat major casts a completely unexpected light on the young composer, on the threshold of composing his great church works. Around 5 minutes in length, and in the spirit of Mozart, it was written in 1852 for a service at the Monastery Church of St. Florian. With its concise form and scoring for small forces it off…

Incl. Horn Trio op. 40 and Clarinet Trio op. 114. Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. Brahms's twenty-four chamber works include a number of the most acclaimed masterpieces in the repertoire, and his piano trios ; including the famous Horn and Clarinet Trios ; are among the most admired, performed, and recorded of all. This edition, reprinted from the definitive one prepared by Hans Gàl for Breitkopf & Härtel, p…

Par SCULTHORPE PETER. Written in 1998, Peter Sculthorpe's calm work draws its inspiration from his own environmental concerns for Northern Australia's so-called 'Top End'. There, along the coastline, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island cultures mingle with those of Melanesia and Indonesia. Cello Dreaming reflects this plurality. / Niveau : Assez Facile / Répertoire / Conducteur

Réduction Piano. Par DVORAK ANTONIN. Composed in 1876, Dvorák's only piano concerto has been overshadowed by his other two concertos, for violin and violoncello, respectively. Performers and editors have often attempted to upgrade this pianistically unassuming work by adding stylisations of their own. Our Urtext edition revaluates the sources, frees the work from subsequent interventions and prese…

Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. It was in his monumental 12 'London' symphonies, composed between 1791 and 1795, that Haydn shaped the early form of the symphony and set the standard for later composers. This volume contains the last six symphonies in the series, including the lively Military Symphony no. 100, the delightful Clock Symphony no. 101, and the world-famous London Symphony no. 104./ Répertoire …

Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Of the four overtures that Beethoven composed for his only opera, the “Leonore Overture” No. 3 is the most popular. The first reviewer found fault with it for its “incessant dissonances and overblown fluttering of the violins” (Wiener Theater-Zeitung, 1806), but it soon became famous as “one of the most imposing, difficult, yet richest and strangest of compositions” (Allg…

Par RAMEAU JEAN-PHILIPPE. Richer than ever – Rameau’s “Zoroastre” in the version of 1756. Opera in five acts. Rameau’s revised version of his opera “Zoroastre”, which could be heard and seen between 20 January 1756 and 26 March 1757 at the Académie royale de musique, was favourably received. Also from today’s point of view the work profits dramaturgically from many of the changes and seems altoget…

Picture the matador as he waves his red cape and the crowd cheers him on! Distinguished by its Spanish influenced melodies and harmonies, this piece in 4/4 is written in D minor and E minor. Great to develop expressive playing! (3:30) / Orchestre A Cordes
