Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q21267). English • German.This major work from Alexander Goehr reflects upon the diametrically opposing roles towers can have. The composer writes ‘Towers embody the idea of climbing upwards, in the spiritual as much as in the physical sense. Their destruction can be regarded as a punishment (or as a rescue from) man’s overwhelming arrogance.’ Using texts by Franz Kafka, 17th century mystic Jacob Boehme and Swiss writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt, Goehr explores man’s desire to build towers to draw closer to God whilst the works feel nothing but despair at the fruitfulness of such a task.

Mixed choir - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q6579 For SATB choir. Composed by Alexander Goehr. This edition: choral score. Choral Music of Our Time. Downloadable, choral score. Duration 4 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q6579. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6579). English.Written in memory of Erich Fried (1921-1988), a writer who wrote the libretto for Goehr's opera Arden Must Die and whose poems were set in Warngedichte (op. 22), Carol for St Steven is a short and playful carol about St Steven as a servant boy in King Herod’s Hall. Seeing the Star and realising that Jesus has been born, the boy tells King Herod whose overreaction results in Steven being stoned to death (explaining why the Vigil of St Stephen takes place on Christmas Night). With a treble soloist singing the lines of Steven and a bass singing the parts of Herod, Goehr’s carol for St Steven is an alternative carol in many senses, but one that would be ideal for both amateur and professional choirs looking for new repertoire.

Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q23837). Goehr's new work for orchestra, based on Bach’s chorale Durch Adams Fall ist alles Verderbt, is the latest in the composer's oeuvre to reflect on great music of the past. My own composition might be described as a kind of Chorale Prelude consisting of a number of settings of Bach’s complete bass-line falling from high up at the opening to extreme depths at the end, with juxtaposed sections based on a contrasting rising melody (Goehr).

Low voice and piano - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q12105 Composed by Alexander Goehr. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Op. 76. Duration 25 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q12105. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q12105). English.Goehr brings an ancient world to life in his setting of eight texts by Hesiod and Homer. Translated into English by Dorothy Wilder and the composer, this song cycle uses the classic stories of Prometheus and Pandora, myths of the Gods and fables to tell a story of strife—its nature and origins. Notwithstanding its dark subject matter, Goehr's music is energetic with a fevered piano part in constant motion beneath the more lyrical vocal writing. A rewarding challenge for singer and pianist.

The Adagio refers directly to Mozart‘s Adagio h-Moll für Klavier KV 540. Goehr‘s Adagio at first follows the harmonic and motivic events of the original, while the repetitions of the two parts allow latitude for own variations and developments. The tempo increases, texture and sound are getting denser. Against the background of the original work by Mozart, Goehr draws a musical self-portrait in a subtly differentiated instrumentation, based on his own understanding.

Piano - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q41779 (Homage to Haydn). Composed by Alexander Goehr. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Op. 93. Duration 10 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q41779. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q41779). My piece is subtitled ‘Homage to Haydn’. Why? Because it is modelled on Haydn’s Variations in F minor/major. But modelled does not imply pastiche or imitation. From Brahms onwards (if not before) there are countless examples of pieces modelled on others in a variety of ways. To do this does not imply a closeness to the original, rather inevitably a distance from it. I don’t know whether a listener would be the wiser for knowing the original. In any case a composition must stand on its own feet. Alexander Goehr.

Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q19059). First performed by the renowned flautist Clara Rees at the launch of “Sing, Ariel�, a collection of essays and thoughts named after Goehr’s 1990 work for soprano and ensemble, Ariel, Sing is a short lyrically flowing work for solo alto flute. A perfect choice for auditions and recitals for an often overlooked instrument.

Duration 8 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q7100. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q7100). English.'Broken Psalm' was commissioned by Cambridge University to celebrate their 800th anniversary and first performed by the Choir of Gonville & Caius College in 2009. Goehr, who was Professor of music at the university between 1976 and 1999, has assembled verses from psalms 42, 75 and 139 for mixed choir to create a rich, free-flowing sound world. Suitable for good amateur choirs, 'Broken Psalm' would be an ideal repertoire addition from one of the UKs most highly regarded composers.

Clarinet in B flat and violin - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q7025 Duo for clarinet and violin. Composed by Alexander Goehr. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Op. 81a. Duration 7 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q7025. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q7025). Like Goehr's quintet for clarinet and strings op. 79, manere is influenced by early music and more specifically the Gregorian chant Sic eum volo manére found in the Graduale Romanorum. The work itself is a 7 minute flowing dialogue between clarinet and violin characterised by a drivenness, a felicitous racing through sections [and] a relishing of the structural advantages of unbroken flow (Paul Driver, The Sunday Times).

Schott Music - Digital #Q6578. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6578). Broken Lute, sechs Stücke für Violine solo, beruht auf der Geschichte Der Minister, die Laute und der Holzfäller aus der Zeit der chinesischen Ming-Dynastie, der Goehr Schlüsselsätze entnommen und an bestimmten Stellen in der Partitur platziert hat. Die virtuose Violinlinie, die den poetischen Text mit Leben erfüllt, fängt die Elemente der Darsteller der Geschichte ein und nimmt Interpreten und Zuhörer mit auf eine fantastische Reise - mit Stürmen auf See, Berglandschaft, Freundschaft und Verlust.
