Trilogie Sacrée. Par BERLIOZ HECTOR. The history of the composition of the oratorio is odd: the kernel of this three-part work were the movements from the middle section, the “Flight to Egypt, ” which Berlioz composed on a whim in 1850 and which he passed off as the work of a baroque composer whose existence he himself had invented. In 1854 the triptych, which was completed with the parts entitled…

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…

for Four Voices and Piano. Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. The Four Quartets op. 92 were composed in 1884 during Brahms’ summer’s stay in Mürzzuschlag (Styria). The opening piece, however, was a revision of an earlier vocal quartet composed in 1877.

The edition is the first part of the commissioned work Our Lady's Minstrel. While Prelude paraphrases the famous chorale Salve Regina in a slow waltz, the gipsy-like cheerful waltz of Dance forms a stark contrast to it.
