Par LUTHER ADAMS JOHN. The Light Within for ensemble is a companion piece to The Light That Fills the World, the harmonic colours of this new piece are more complex and mercurial than those of its outward-looking predecessor.

The opera Nais was premiered on 22 April 1749 at the Academie royale in the Palais-Royal, Paris, in celebration of the signing of the so-called Treaty of Aachen. It was revived again in August 1764 shortly before Rameau's death and achieved great success as the 'opera of peace', even though it did not appear in print during the composer's lifetime.In numerous arias Rameau provides his singers ampl…

Eb Instruments. Par WENIGER PETER. This CD (including music booklet) has not especially been worked out for the use in musical education. It is, on the contrary, an audio CD which has been recorded for sale as a trio CD under my name. Mixing the recordings at the studio, however, gave us the idea to offer this CD Legal Paradizer also as a play along CD. For this reason I have never taken a pedagog…

Kantate Zum Fest Mariae Reinigung. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Setting in E minor. A new edition of the version for solo soprano by Bach, which can hold a place alongside the version for bass solo. Bach originally composed the cantata for the Feast of Purification for a solo bass in the key of C minor [CV 31. 082/00]. Since its scoring for only one solo voice made it easily adaptable for performanc…

Par RHEINBERGER JOSEF GABRIEL. Rheinberger’s string quartets, his string quintet and his nonet for winds and strings were often performed and were very successful works during his lifetime. Their density, but also the delicateness of the scherzo movements are in the tradition of Schumann and Mendelssohn and these traits are combined with Rheinberger’s sense for the clear, defined structure of the …

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,…

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Transcription pour alto et piano par Bruno Monsaingeon et Antoine Joly On ne saurait affirmer que le répertoire original de concert de l'alto, en tant qu'instrument soliste, soit richement pourvu en chefs-d'oeuvre. Au mieux, et encore si on inclut les sonates de Brahms, elles-mêmes transcrites de la clarinette, deux programmes de récital et on a fait le tour de la questi…

Hob XXI:3. Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. Joseph Haydn's oratorio 'The Seasons' was composed directly after the first successful performances of 'The Creation'. 'The Seasons' has been greatly overshadowed by 'The Creation' for a long time and yet this work has far greater changes of style between popular Singspiel and great oratorio than 'The Creation'. 'The Seasons' continues to impress and remains part …

for String Orchestra Score and Parts. Par NISHIMURA YUKIKO. Mimosa Shower was written with a sense of anticipation for spring. The brightness of D Major is perfect for string orchestra, and the yellow color of the mimosa flower reminds me of this key. Mimosa Shower opens with a vivid impressionistic introduction, followed by a gently flowing theme. Every instrument plays the melody which flows sid…
