Composed by Franz Schubert (1797-1828). Arranged by Stephen Levintow. 19th Century,Chamber,Opera,Romantic Period. 14 pages. Cypress Publishing #919946. Published by Cypress Publishing (A0.1333650).

Schubert had bad luck with librettists, and as a result his operas and works for the theatre are rarely performed on stage. This extended ballet sequence, from incidental music for a now forgotten play, is an example of the wonderful music he wrote for these neglected works.

CYPRESS PUBLISHING is pleased to be the imprint for arrangements for string ensemble by Stephen Levintow. He is a free lance professional violist and violinist specializing in chamber music, who began making string quartet and trio arrangements for wedding, party and corporate events, to expand the repertory or to improve on existing versions. Selections include unusual pieces by both familiar and lesser-known composers, plus standard classical and popular favorites. 

The goal is to produce high-quality, musically satisfying arrangements faithful to the composer’s original material, yet sight-readable in most cases by working professionals or intermediate to advanced students. The full range of normal string technique is employed, while avoiding unnecessary technical complexity. Melodic material is distributed throughout the four voices where appropriate, to maintain listener and performer interest. All parts and scores are set in Sibelius© software format, with careful attention to legibility and page turns.

Composed by FRANCESCO LANDINI. Arranged by James M. Guthrie. Chamber,Contest,Early Music,Festival,Medieval,Standards. 7 pages. Jmsgu3 #939312. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.1354623).

Angelica beltà is a significant composition by Landini that showcases his talent for creating expressive and melodic music. His music emphasizes the sensuous and emotional aspects, with his melodies being predominantly vocal even when written for instruments. The song is part of the Trecento period, which refers to 14th-century Italian music. The lyrics of Angelica beltà express the beauty and virtues of Angelica, but also convey a sense of conflict and war.

Landini was a leading composer of 14th-century Italy, famed during his lifetime for his musical memory, skill in improvisation, and virtuosity on the organetto, or portative organ, as well as for his compositions. Landini was blinded in childhood by smallpox. His blindness did not prevent him from becoming a highly skilled and renowned musician, composer, and instrument maker. His blindness may have contributed to his prodigious memory and great skill at improvisation. He was crowned with a laurel wreath as the winner of a poetical contest at Venice in 1364.  

Landini's output, preserved in the Squarcialupi Codex, represents almost a quarter of all surviving 14th-century Italian music. He was by far the most famous composer in Italy and is considered one of the most revered composers of the second half of the 14th century.

Landini's music is characterized by lyrical, songlike melodies that possess an easy-flowing grace and are charmingly harmonized. He was the foremost exponent of the Italian Trecento style, sometimes called the Italian ars nova. His output was almost exclusively secular, and he is known for his ballet and madrigals, which were popular forms of Italian secular songs. It is assumed that he wrote the texts for many of his works.

Francesco Landini's music is characterized by its lyrical melodies, secular themes, and unique rhythms, which set him apart from his contemporaries and contributed to his enduring legacy as a composer.
