From Balletti a cinque voci. Par GASTOLDI GIOVANNI GIACOMO. During the second half of the 16th century, Giovanni Giacomo Gastoldi composed almost entirely sacred works, however it was with his Balletti, not published until 1591 and 1594, that he gained fame and recognition. The homophonic structure and simple melodies conveyed a charming sense of naivety that became so popular during this period. …

In 1918 Gabriel Faure, then 73 years old, received a commission from Prince Albert I of Monaco to write stage music invoking the atmosphere of the commedia dell'arte. The four-movement orchestral suite op. 112, consisting of Ouverture, Menuet, Gavotte and Pastorale, combines previously unpublished parts of this stage music. The Pastorale of 1919 was Faure's last composition for orchestra, the Ouve…

Full Score. Par HILLBORG ANDERS. Hillborg's first Violin Concerto, composed in the early 90s, is a pivotal work in his oeuvre. Composed in the wake of his highly experimental Clang and Fury and Celestial Mechanics - both of which employ complex and unconventional tuning systems - the concerto displays a more pragmatic approach, though the drama it sets up is far from conventional, with a very flui…

Par HENZE HANS WERNER. In this work, I had wanted completely to submit to the traditional rules of the classical symphony so as to mould my musical expression as if in a furnace and enable it to reach the listener as directly and clearly as possible. The first movement is a kind of German dance, an Allemande, so to speak; the second one a Lied. The third, in strict scherzo-form, is a representatio…

For Violin and Piano Two Works by Dvorák & Smetana. Par SMETANA BEDRICH / DVORAK ANTONIN. This edition contains brilliant examples of blending elements of folklore with classical composition technique by two Czech masters. The volume includes Bedrich Smetana's From My Homeland and Mazurek by Antonin Dvorak. Interestingly, both of these works were composed in the same year (1879). This publication …

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. Dvorák’s Waltzes and Mazurkas prove to be a successfully contrived balancing act between stylised composition and musical immediacy. The music critic Louis Ehlert once wrote of Dvorák’s Slavonic Dances that they made a real musician’s heart laugh within him; the comment might equally well be applied to these pieces. These “Waltzes and Mazurkas” rank alongside the works of Chopi…
