Über Die Nicht- Und Flüchtigkeit Des Menschlichen Lebens. Kantate Zum 24. Sonntag Nach Trinitatis. Par TELEMANN GEORG PHILIPP. The 'Trauer-Actus' is probably the earliest work in the Grimma collection of Telemann cantatas. Its textual and musical structur, and to no a less extent the composer's as yet imperfect technical mastery of his craft indicate that this work dates from Telemann's apprentice…

The early sonatas. Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. Schubert was visibly adventurous in his early piano sonatas, as is apparent in their wide-ranging key schemes, diverging versions of many movements or entire sonatas, and numerous works left incomplete. This revised Urtext edition contains the sonatas he composed between 1815 and 1817. An updated preface and valuable notes on central questions of performance …

Par WUORINEN CHARLES. Charles Wuorinen\'s Second Piano Trio was found on his desk at the time of his passing in March 2020. A single, nine-minute movement, it is characterized by a complex, lively rhythmic interplay between the three instruments, in particular a wittily repeated figure of sixteenth-note quintuplets. Upon reviewing Wuorinen\'s third and final draft for this piece posthumously, thre…

Yesterday and Today is a duet suite commissioned by the Emporia (Kansas) Area Piano Teachers. The suite contains two movements, with primo and secondo parts leveled equally. 'Memories of Yesterday' is an expressive piece in 6/8 meter. The lyrical melody is traded back and forth between the two parts. 'Celebrate Today!' is a lively march featuring ascending and descending scale figures. / Piano 4 M…

Par WINTERBERG HANS. Hans Winterberg's four string quartets were composed over a period of four decades between 1936 and 1961 and reflect the four stages of his eventful biography. He composed the first in what were probably the happiest moments of his life in his native city of Prague, the second under great hardship in the terrible war year of 1942, the third in 1957 during a phase of great comp…

Chiemsee-Messe. Par HAYDN JOHANN MICHAEL. Among Haydn’s over thirty settings of the Latin Ordinary, the Missa in honorem Sanctae Ursula occupies an outstanding position, which, according to the autograph, was completed on 5 August 1793. This Mass has been referred to as the most “Mozartian” of all his masses. With its song-like melodic character, the unity of the motivic material and the harmonius…

Par HILLBORG ANDERS. The music of Anders Hillborg’s virtuosic Tampere Raw for clarinet and piano alternates between two vividly different characters: one slowly flowing texture, composed completely intuitively, and one fast, fiercely rhythmical and pulsative texture, where the tone material for the most part is generated from permutations of prime-number series.  A thrilling addition to the reper…

Kantate Zum Reformationsfest (In Der Bearbeitung Von Wilhelm Friedemann Bach). Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. The present cantata draws on two of Bach’s earlier works. The original form was the cantata 'Alles, was von Gott geboren' [Weimar 1715, BWV 80a]. A second version [BWV 80b] was written between 1727 and 1731 in Leipzig. The instrumentation of movements 1 and 5 come from a later adaptation by Wi…

Il Distratto. Par HAYDN JOSEPH. The six movements of Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 60 “Il Distratto” once served as incidental music for the comedy “Le Distrait” by Jean-François Regnard (1655–1709), which was performed at the Esterházy court in 1772. This consisted of an overture, four entr’actes – the play is in five acts – and a finale. But this composition is not merely a compilation of stage mu…
