Hundreds of exercises and beats give the reader ample opportunity to practice the elements, which, when assembled, will give the drummer the ability to integrate a complete language of incredibly funky concepts into his or he…

Carl Maria von Weber's fame rests mainly on ?Der Freischütz'. The unprecedented success of this opera overshadowed all his other works and contributed to their increasing fall into oblivion. Certain works such as ?Preciosa', ?Oberon', and ?Euryanthe', the overtures, solo concertos and piano sonatas, the lieder and chamber works enjoyed great popularity and were widely known in Germany and abroad a…

Satie's progressive incidental music of 1891-92, though explicitly aimed against French 'Wagnérisme?, is not intended as a parody. Commissioned by the Rosicrucian master and ardent Wagnerian Joséphin Péladan, this plain, purely instrumental music proceeds independently from the dramatic action. For the first time, this pioneering Urtext edition on Satie's incidental music evaluates a previously ne…

There is something for everyone in this collection of Isabelle Aboulker's most beautiful melodies: the passionate vocalises of Je t'aime, composed for the fiery Patricia Petitbon, sit alongside limpid fables by La Fontaine (The Crow and the Fox, The Lion in Old Age and more), while the unnerving eeriness of the merchant of souls in Au Marché de Saint-Paul contrasts with the light humour of the Sav…

Par LOEB DAVID. David Loeb's Japanese Tone Poems for piccolo alone collects particularly evocative Japanese works from his ouevre - Nightcolors (P-15), Piccolo Perspectives (P-21), and Snowsounds (P-24), unique in their vivid portrayal of ancient mountainous forests, winter scenes, and ekphrastic musical descriptions of images inscribed on woodblocks and ceramics, a double-set of tone poems, perha…

Par STEPHENSON JOSEPHINE. 'The Sestina is a fixed verse poetic form dating from the 12th century. It has a fascinating, very strict structure, consisting principally of six stanzas of six lines each, and requiring that the six line-ending words of the first stanza be re-used as end-words in each of the following stanzas in specific places, determined by an algorithm. In this musical Sestina, which…

Tonalité : C-Moll - Kv 427. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. The Mass in C minor, K. 427, Mozart's 'Great Mass' remaines a torso - a circumstance which is extremely regrettable, especially given the monumentality of this work. Mozart finished only the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, 'Osanna', and Benedictus of the Mass. For two movements from the Credo he only completed sketches without instrumentation. In Ma…

Par FORD ALEX. From the composer: 'Many of the versions of this myth describe Pan as lustful, painting him as the image of carnal desire against purity and virtue. Upon further study of the metamorphoses, and the various possible translations, I felt the version I've written above makes, at least, for a more theatrical telling of the story. The piece is told through the eyes of Pan, getting glimps…

Par SCHWEITZER BENJAMIN. The chiaroscuro-technique developed by painters of the Italian renaissance served to intensify contrasts and effects of optical depth. In Klar/Obskur, I tried to transfer the general idea of this technique on the rather unusual instrumentation of two double-reed woodwinds and piano. On the one hand, a clear, well articulated playing is characteristic for these instruments,…
