Composed in 1867, it is a tone poem inspired by the Russian legend of nocturnal revels on St. John's Night, involving a witches' Sabbath on Bald Mountain near Kiev. The piece is known for its high drama, dark textures, and bold harmonies, which Mussorgsky's colleagues considered excitingly expressive and raw. The work was unpublished and unrevised at the time of the composer's death, and his colleagues, including Rimsky-Korsakov, later revised it. The composition remains a powerful representation of Russian folk tradition. It is associated with the pagan festivities of the midsummer Slavic holiday, making it a significant piece in the history of Russian classical music.The legend of the nocturnal revels on St. John's Night in June on a hill called Lysa Hora near Kiev is a prominent Slavic tale that inspired Modest Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain. The legend tells of a demon, Chernobog, who leads the revels until a far-off church bell sounds disperse the Spirits of Darkness. This tale is associated with the pagan festivities of the midsummer Slavic holiday and is a significant part of Russian folklore and culture. Lysa Hora, meaning Bald Mountain or Barren Mountain, is a large wooded hill in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, near the confluence of the Dnipro and Lybid' rivers, and is the traditional site of the witch gatherings in Slavic folklore. The legend's themes of darkness, supernatural gatherings, and the triumph of light have made it a compelling source of inspiration for various artistic works, including Mussorgsky's musical composition.

Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.8600-E). English.A celebration of life, unity, and music, this is a setting of a poem by the 19th-century British author John Addington Symonds (1840-1893). The text speaks of the future with hope: A loftier race then e'er the world has known shall rise. The healing and transforming power of music is essential to this hope. When every life shall be a song, then all the earth is a paradise. Throughout, the message is triumphant: These things shall be! The musical expression alternates between added-tone chords (representing building for the future) and melodic phrases for the more tender passages of the poem: we will be gentle, brave, and strong ). Commissioned and premiered by the Boston Gay Men's Chorus. Duration: 3:30.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1345961 Composed by Santiago Abadía. 21st Century,Classical,Contemporary,Film/TV,Spiritual. Score. 12 pages. ABADIA MUSIC #930873. Published by ABADIA MUSIC (A0.1345961). A Place Among The Stars is a piece for piano inspired by the Greco-Roman myth of Astrea, the virgin goddess of purity and justice to whom, Zeus, granted a place among the stars configuring the Virgo constellation.. The piece thrives as an archaic chant formed by a six note motif transits through several tonalities leading into an epic ascension which, after attaining its peak, returns back to the original chant and renovates it. This process, which symbolizes the myth of the descent and ascension to the stars, repeats itself until, after the last ascension, a cadenza suspended in a non gravitational field plays out Astrea's definitive transfiguration and eternal delightful shining in the skies.Duration: ca. 5minThe recording of A Place Among The Stars by pianist Jordi Castellà for Abadía Music is available on music streaming platforms and digital stores.https://santiagoabadia.fanlink.to/A-Place-Among-The-StarsA Place Among The StarsCopyright © 2023 Santiago Abadía Parada | Abadía Music | All rights reserved. ISMN 979-0-69230-625-2.

String Quartet String Quartet - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.836707 Composed by Brian Joyce. Christmas,Contemporary. Score and parts. 67 pages. Brian Joyce #3226073. Published by Brian Joyce (A0.836707). What’s Christmas without a few toys? Here is a new suite of older carols for string quartet in which each musician is required to play a wee bit of percussion in addition to his or her real instrument. The potential for entertaining visual theater is nearly as high as the potential for mishap. (If all goes according to plan, nothing should actually go airborne.)This is something of a sequel to my earlier Christmas quartet And Therefore Be Merry, which has never been out of print since it was first published over twenty years ago. But where that work was a continuous medley, this is a set of independent and more fully developed movements, each able to stand on its own. As mentioned above, each member of the quartet is responsible for a small item of percussion. These are all things which could readily be found in a local school band room: a triangle, a tambourine, a suspended cymbal - played with a soft (yarn) stick - and a small frame drum, played with the bare hand. These are all earlier, earthier carols than what one typically finds on the radio or playing over the speakers at the mall. They include Gloucestershire Wassail, Riu Riu Chiu, Angelus ad Virginem, The Sans Day Carol, The Wexford Carol, and Masters in This Hall. Being perhaps less familiar, they bring a welcome respite from the overworked seasonal fare we all hear a bit too much of each year. They speak of simpler times, and of a far less frantic approach to Christmas. These fresh and inventive arrangements will make a useful addition to a quartet’s repertoire, provided the players have the requisite spirit of adventure. Score and Parts total 67 pages. Performance time is about 14 minutes.
