KVAMusic Edition #4717677. Published by KVAMusic Edition (A0.768508). The Messe de Minuit was written around 1694 for the Jesuit church of Saint-Louis in Paris.What is remarkable about this mass is the use of ten French noëls (Christmas carols) in the composition. In the liturgy the birth of Christ is celebrated with three masses: the first during the night of December 24th, the second in the early morning of December 25th, and the third on the day itself. A special atmosphere surrounds the first of these masses on account of the midnight hour, and so Charpen­tier gave special expression to the long observed practice in France of including popular Christmas carols in the Christmas liturgy by including them in the composition of his midnight mass. Although the Council of Trent had forbidden this kind of borrowing of secular melodies in masses in principle, long established customs were tolerated. Charpentier’s justly famous Messe de Minuit represents a perfect synthesis between the secular and liturgical, and between the popular and learned. Adapting the vast majority of the Latin mass to French noëls, the Messe de Minuit’s fresnhess and joyful spirit perfectly represent Advent.  While Charpentier used ten different noël’s through the course of the work, the most serious moment of the mass, the statements of Christ’s incarnation, his mortal existence, and his death under Pontius Pilate, is given wholly original, appropriately sober music.

The Lost Chord is a song composed by Arthur Sullivan in 1877  at the bedside of his brother Fred during Fred's last illness.  The manuscript is dated 13 January 1877; Fred Sullivan died five days later.  The lyric was written as a poem by Adelaide Anne Procter called A Lost Chord,  published in 1858 in The English Woman's Journal.   The song was immediately successful and became particularly associated with  American contralto Antoinette Sterling, with Sullivan's close friend and mistress, Fanny Ronalds,  and with British contralto Clara Butt.   Sullivan was proud of the song and later noted:  I have composed much music since then,  but have never written a second Lost Chord.  Many singers have recorded the song, including Enrico Caruso, who sang it at the  Metropolitan Opera House on 29 April 1912 at a benefit concert for families of victims  of the Titanic disaster.   The piece has endured as one of Sullivan's best-known songs,  and the setting is still performed today.  .

Osman Pasha is in love with his slave, the young Émilie, but she rejects him, telling him she was about to be married when a group of brigands abducted her. Osman urges her to give up hope that her fiancé is still alive (Air: Il faut que l'amour s'evole) but Émilie refuses to believe this is true. The sky turns dark as a storm brews; Émilie sees the violent weather as an image of her despair (Air: Vaste empire des mers). A chorus of shipwrecked sailors is heard (Chorus: Ciel! de plus d'une mort). Émilie laments that they too will be taken captive. She recognises one of the sailors as her fiancé Valère. Their joy at their reunion is tempered by sadness at the thought they are both slaves now. Osman enters and is furious to see the couple embracing. However, unexpectedly, he announces he will free them. He too has recognised Valère, who was once his master but magnanimously freed him. Osman loads Valère's surviving ships with gifts and the couple praise his generosity. They call on the winds to blow them back to France (Duet and chorus: Volez, Zéphyrs). The act ends with celebratory dances as Valère and Émilie prepare to set sail.

Musik Fabrik Music Publishing #3604007. Published by Musik Fabrik Music Publishing (A0.534527). It was in the process of preparing the publication of the works of Demersseman and of Ali Ben Sou Alle that suggested to me the idea of the typical 19th century practice of the Fantasy and Variations on well-known themes.The saxophone lends itself perfectly for this stylistic exercise. I therefore chose to write for this instrument, which the piano supports seriously.My republican roots (in the French sense) suggested that I set several revolutionary songs from 1789. I therefore chose the emblematic “ Ah ça ira ! �, after having seen the famous sequence of “Si Versailles l’était conté� where Piaf sings this song hanging of the grill of the Palace of Versailles, in the superbe version by Jean Françaix.I added at the end “ La Carmagnole � and the famous “ Il pleut bergère � a foreshadowing of the destiny of Marie-Antoinette who is said to have enjoyed singing this air. One will find, a bit hidden, a short citation of a work for organ by Bach.This isn’t a pastiche but rather a sort of modern update to this form in respecting its codes, its forms of this type of work which disappeared temporarily due to forced musical austerity.

Baritone Ukulele,Instrumental Solo - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1213139 Composed by Antoine Lemaine. Arranged by Chris Webster. 19th Century,Classical. Individual part. 11 pages. Chris Webster #810315. Published by Chris Webster (A0.1213139). Les Folies d'Espagne was a popular theme throughout the Baroque and Classical periods with versions by many composers, for example, Fernando Sor and Mauro Giuliani. This version is by Antoine Lemaine, a lesser known guitarist of the classical period. He must have got carried away when writing it because he produced 29 variations, some of them very fast and difficult! Here are 12 of them - and it still runs to 208 bars! However, you don't have to play them all or break your fingers! Simply choose a selection that suits you. For example, the theme and variations 1 to 3 make an easy but effective set. Thus, this piece is as easy or difficult as you want to make it, with the theme and easier variations being at lower intermediate level. The arrangement is for Baritone ukulele, but the tab will also work with any ukulele with linear tuning.

Mixed choir (SATB) SKU: M2.MOS-80144 Composed by Antoine de Longueval. Das Chorwerk 144. Möseler Verlag #MOS 80144. Published by Möseler Verlag (M2.MOS-80144). Es ist zweifellos ein paradoxer Umstand, dass ein Komponist, uber dessen Leben so gut wie nichts bekannt ist und von dem allein drei Kompositionen uberliefert sind, mit einem dieser Werke die Entwicklung einer ganzen musikalischen Gattung entscheidend gepragt hat. Hierbei handelt es sich um den franzosischen Hofmusiker Antoine de Longueval, dessen kurz nach 1500 in Italien entstandene Passionsvertonung bis in das fruhe 17. Jahrhundert hinein insbesondere im protestantischen Deutschland sich nicht nur grosser Beliebtheit erfreute und eine weite Verbreitung erfuhr, sondern auch hinsichtlich des neuen musikalischen Stils (motettisch durchkomponiert) wie der textlichen Fassung (Passionsharmonie) fur die gesamte Geschichte der Passionskomposition von grossem Einfluss sein sollte. Doch wahrend in Italien an eine Auffuhrung einer mehrstim- migen Passionsharmonie in liturgischem Rahmen nicht zu denken war, hatte im evangelischen Deutschland die durch die Reformation hervorgerufene neue theologische Orientierung auch Auswirkungen auf die Passionskomposition gehabt. Hier wurde Longuevals Werk - aus bislang unerklarlichen Grunden nun aber uberwiegend ohne Autorenangabe oder Jacob Obrecht zugeschrieben - in der Folge nicht nur in zahlreichen kirchenmusikalischen Handschriften vor allem Mitteldeutschlands uberliefert; sie stieg in der Geschichte der Passionsvertonung sogar zu einer Art Kompositionsmodell auf, das entweder unter leichten Veranderungen weiter tradiert wurde oder als Ausgangspunkt fur zahlreiche Neuschopfungen diente. Von der durchkomponierten Summa passionis Longuevals und der responsorialen Passion Johann Walters her lasst sich jedenfalls die gesamte Gattungsgeschichte der deutschen Passion des 16. und fruhen 17. Jahrhunderts verstehen. Vom geschichtlichen Ruhm dieser kompositorischen Neuerungen profitierte jedoch lange Zeit Jacob Obrecht, dem die Passionsvertonung erstmals in Georg Rhaus Wittenberger Sammeldruck Selectae harmoniae quatuor vocum de passione Domini von 1538 irrtumlich zugeschrieben wurde, und tatsachlich galt seine Ausgabe fortan als die fruheste und damit massgebliche Quelle. Doch sind drei handschriftliche ausserdeutsche Uberlieferungen unter dem Namen Longuevals in die Zeit vor Rhaus Druck zu datieren; ihnen verdanken wir genaue Auskunft uber die Entstehungsgeschichte dieses aussergewohnlichen Werkes. Entstanden ist Longuevals Komposition hochstwahrscheinlich wahrend seines knapp einjahrigen Aufenthaltes am Hof zu Ferrara im Jahre 1504, wo sie ahnlich wie Josquin Desprez' grosse dreiteilige Motette Miserere mei Deus ... den geistlichen Neigungen des Herzogs entsprochen haben durfte. ...
