Composed by Johann Strauss Jr. Arranged by Alessandro Macrì. Christmas,Concert,Film/TV,Holiday,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 38 pages. Music Macri Editions #5871333. Published by Music Macri Editions (A0.931268).

Voices of Spring (Voci di Primavera) op. 410, è un valzer di Johann Strauss (figlio).

Nell'inverno del 1882-83 il compositore fu invitato a comporre un valzer vocale per il celebre soprano austriaco Bianca Bianchi (il cui vero nome era Bertha Schwarz), al tempo un acclamato membro del Wiener Hopfoperntheater (Teatro dell'opera reale di Vienna).

Il valzer fu eseguito per la prima volta al Theater an der Wien il 1º marzo 1883 ad un concerto di beneficenza per la fondazione degli indigenti dell'Impero austro-ungarico fondata dall'imperatore Francesco Giuseppe e dall'imperatrice Elisabetta.

Strauss, dopo il successo che aveva ottenuto con i suoi valzer corali, fu felice di scrivere un brano per sola voce e il librettista Richard Genée, che aveva già collaborato con il compositore nell'operetta Eine Nacht in Venedig (Una notte a Venezia) del 1883, scrisse anche il testo per il nuovo valzer.

L'autunno del 1882 vide Strauss impegnato a Budapest per curare la prima rappresentazione dell'operetta Der lustige Krieg (L'allegra Guerra; 1881). Durante lo svolgimento di una delle serate in onore della visita del musicista viennese, fu Strauss stesso ad esibirsi al pianoforte con un altro degli illustri ospiti della serata: Franz Liszt. I due compositori si conoscevano già molto bene da almeno 30 anni (Strauss aveva dedicato il suo valzer Abschieds-Rufe op. 179 a Liszt nel gennaio del 1856) e si incontrarono in numerose altre occasioni. Fu questa visita che fornì l'ispirazione per la scrittura del valzer Frühlingsstimmen.

Successivamente il valzer venne arrangiato da Johann in versione solamente orchestrale e fu eseguito in questa forma, oggi celeberrima, da Eduard Strauss durante uno dei suoi concerti al Musikverein nel 1883.

Nel 1934 il valzer fu riutilizzato per l'operetta postuma (con musiche di Strauss jr.) Die Tänzerin Fanny Elßler.

Durante il Concerto di Capodanno del 1987, Herbert von Karajan, inserì nel programma il valzer Frühlingsstimmen eseguendolo nella versione vocale originale con il soprano Kathleen Battle.

Canon In D (Pachelbel) (D) (Brass Octet - 3 Trp, 2 Hrn, 2 Trb, 1 Tuba) (3 Trp lead) - Advanced/Intermediate - Digital Download. This selection, Johann Pachelbel's celebrated Canon In D, is perhaps the most famous canon ever written and has been one of my favorite compositions to arrange. A canon is a polyphonic device in which several voices play the same music, entering in sequence. Pachelbel's Canon In D, was originally written in the key of D Major and was scored for three violins arranged in canon, accompanied by a basso continuo which repeats the same harmonic progression throughout the entire piece. The common musical term for this is ostinato or ground bass. Regis Bookshar has now arranged this music for a Brass Octet consisting of 3 Trumpets, 2 French Horns, 2 Trombones and 1 Tuba. Three Trumpets play the melody in canon while the ostinato accompaniment is played by the other five instruments. This arrangement is suitable for high school and college students but could also be performed by professional performers. It is perfect for concerts and church services, especially for Weddings, but could be performed for any occasion. Included are a score and a complete set of parts (36 pages). This version is written in the key of D Major, as is the original version, but, if you prefer, another version, written in the key of Bb Major, to make it a little easier for some younger performers, is also available. Other versions of Pachelbel's Canon in D have also been arranged by Regis Bookshar and are available for a wide variety of instrumental Quintets and Octets, in both the keys of D Major and Bb Major. I think that String players would probably prefer to play the versions in the key of D Major while the Brass and Woodwind musicians might prefer to play the Bb Major versions. I hope you take the time to compare the different versions to find the right version for you. To help you decide which version, or versions, you may want to choose, I have included several musical samples for you to listen to and to hear what these arrangements may sound like and so that you may compare the various arrangements. Also, just to let you know, the Octets written in the key of Bb Major have full-length recordings while the Octets in D Major and all Quintets have only the first 25 measures, or so, available to hear. Please feel free to search for other arrangements by Regis Bookshar which are also available. There are quite a few other arrangements in a variety of styles and I'm certain you will find something else which might interest you as well. Please keep checking because I plan to continue to add new arrangements as often as I can. I'm certain that this exciting arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon in D will be a challenge to some performers but will continue to entertain both performers and audiences alike for years to come.

Composed by Guillaume de Machaut, 1300-1377. Arranged by James M. Guthrie. Chamber,Contest,Early Music,Festival,Historic,Medieval. 38 pages. Jmsgu3 #851281. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1258043).

1. Kyrie
2. Gloria
3. Credo
4. Sanctus
5. Agnus dei
6. Ite missa est

Guillaume de Machaut composed the Messe de Nostre Dame, also known as the Mass of Our Lady, in the early 1360s. He wrote the mass for the Cathedral at Reims, where he served as a canon, a permanent clergy member. According to a rubric found at the Cathedral, it would have likely been performed for the Saturday Lady Mass. 

Guillaume de Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame is significant in the history of music for several reasons:

• It is the first complete setting of the Ordinary of the Mass by a single composer that has survived.
• It is a unified mass, meaning that the composer selected relevant chants for each section as the borrowed tenor.
• It was composed in four voices, which was unusual at the time.
• The texts of both Gloria and Credo are quite lengthy, and therefore Machaut set these movements in a style reminiscent of the earlier discant style, having short phrases, similar rhythmic motion in all parts, and a low ratio of notes per syllable of text, both ending with long, rhapsodic sections for the final word, Amen.

Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame is a landmark in musical history, but it is far from being avant-garde merely for the sake of uniqueness. It is considered to be a culmination of the musical style of the Ars Nova period, which was characterized by complex polyphonic textures and rhythmic innovations. The mass is also significant because it was composed during a time of great political and social upheaval in Europe, and it reflects the changing attitudes towards religion and music during this period. Overall, Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame is a significant work that represents a culmination of the musical style of the Ars Nova period and reflects the changing attitudes towards religion and music during the 14th century. 

The mass consists of five movements: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei, followed by the dismissal Ite, missa est. The tenor of the Kyrie is based on Vatican Kyrie IV, the Sanctus, and Agnus correspond to Vatican Mass XVII, and the Ite is on Sanctus VIII. The Gloria and Credo have no apparent chant basis, although they are stylistically related to one another. The mass is a unified mass, meaning that the composer selected relevant chants for each section as the borrowed tenor. The Messe de Nostre Dame is significant in the history of music because it is the first complete setting of the Ordinary of the Mass by a single composer that has survived. It is also significant because it was composed during a time of great political and social upheaval in Europe, and it reflects the changing attitudes towards religion and music during this period. 

Overall, the Messe de Nostre Dame was an important part of the liturgical practices of the time, and it is still regarded as a masterpiece of medieval music and of all religious music.
