By Richard Byrnes. By Claude Debussy. Arranged by Richard Byrnes. Romantic Period. 52 pages. Richard Byrnes #707037. Published by Richard Byrnes (A0.1103756).

 

This is the 10th Prelude of Volume 1 of Debussy’s Preludes for piano.

 

This piece depicts the rising of a submerged cathedral. It is derived from a Breton myth. The cathedral, according to legend, rises from the sea off the coast of the Island of Ys on clear mornings. After it’s entrance, the cathedral sinks back into the sea.

 

This is a striking example of what is considered musical impressionism – the allusion to an image.

Composed by Johannes Brahms. Arranged by Richard Byrnes. Romantic Period. 62 pages. Richard Byrnes #6871243. Published by Richard Byrnes (A0.830862).

 

Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) was a German composer who crafted his works using the techniques of musical counterpoint within traditional forms. Within those strictures he created many beautiful and powerful works.

 

Capriccio’s in general are thought not to adhere specific compositional rules, yet here Brahms allows himself to find order within the form. It’s whimsical, quirky, and completely delightful.

 

This is an arrangement by Richard Byrnes for 5 Violins, 2 Violas, 2 Celli, & Bass.

 

In addition to many works by Brahms, we offer works by Bach, Debussy, Dvorák, Fauré, Glazounov, Glinka, Gottschalk, Granados, Griffes, Lotti, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Ravel, Richard Strauss, Turina, & Vierne.
