The music Herbert Howells has tended to be unjustly neglected but his post-war output of orchestral and chamber works is currently enjoying a period of re-eveluation. This Herbert Howells society edition of six pieces brings to light yet another aspect of his work, namely his Piano music. Even though he was an accomplished pianist himself, music for Piano did not figure highly in his output. This volume contains some charming character pieces in the form of six Sarum Sketches, two slow dances based on tunes from John Playford's The Dancing Master, an extrovert piece based on a folk tune, a minuet composed as a birthday present for John Ireland, a brief vignette and an exquisite miniature. Of the six pieces in this volume, three appear in print for the first time.

In 1972 the Council of Europe adopted Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' as its anthem. The well-known conductor Herbert von Karajan was commissioned to arrange three instrumental versions - for solo piano, wind orchestra and symphony orchestra. Without words, in the universal language of music, the anthem is an expression of the idealistic values of freedom, peace and solidarity which Europe stands for. In 1985 the heads of state and government adopted the hymn as the EU's official anthem. It does not replace the national anthems of the member states, but rather celebrates common values as well as unity in diversity.

Obwohl die Variationen vorwiegend von rationalen Kompositionsmitteln in Anlehnung an Reihentechniken Schonbergs und des spaten Strawinsky gepragt sind, ist in ihnen das spielerische musikantische Element und der tanzerische Charakter, wenn auch immer wieder anders gebrochen, erhalten geblieben. (Helmut Lachenmann, 1985) Das burgerliche Denken ist gekennzeichnet durch ein hochentwickeltes System von Verdrangungsmechanismen, welche die Isolation, Entfremdung, Angst und Sprachlosigkeit des Individuums uberspielen sollen. Unser Kulturbetrieb ist ein wesentlicher Teil dieses Verdrangungssystems. In diesem Sinn hat er die Tradition in Beschlag genommen: die Illusion einer in Wirklichkeit langst verlorenen gemeinsamen Verstandigungsbasis bewahrt er durch die Konservierung und Fetischisierung historischer asthetischer Kategorien und daran gebundener Wertvorstellungen; als Synonym fur tabuisierte Konvention bildet Tradition heute einen verraterischen Teil dieser unserer Wirklichkeit. Die Funf Variationen uber ein Thema von Franz Schubert sind 1956, also noch vor meinem Studium bei Nono, entstanden. In ihnen ist jener oben ausgefuhrte gesellschafts- und kulturbetriebskritische Ansatz noch kaum erkennbar, eher keimhaft verborgen. Ich mag das Stuck so, wie einer vielleicht Souvenirs aus seiner Jugend mag. Es ist vorwiegend von rationalen Prinzipien in Anlehnung an Motivtechniken Schonbergs und des spaten Strawinsky gepragt, und doch ist das musikantische Element und der tanzerische Charakter, wenn auch immer anders gebrochen, erhalten geblieben. Noch nicht ausgepragt ist hierin der Widerstand gegen Tradition, insofern deren Kategorien als herrschende Konventionen jenen zuvor erwahnten burgerlichen Verdrangungsmechanismen unterstellt sind.

Wer kennt es nicht, das beruhmte Mainzer Fastnachtslied Heile, heile Gansje. Weit uber die Fastnachtsthematik hinaus wurde es zum Trost spendenden Lied, das zu allen moglichen Anlassen gesungen wird. Herbert Bonewitz nimmt diese Melodie mit auf eine humorvolle Reise durch die Musikgeschichte und verbindet sie mit beruhmten Kompositionen. Oder haben gar Bach und Mozart die Melodie schon gekannt? Jedenfalls findet sie sich wieder in Bachs Invention Nr. 13, Beethovens 5. Sinfonie und Mondscheinsonate, Mozarts Nachtm7usik, Chopins Revolutionsetude, Debussys Claire de lune, Liszts Ungarischer Rhapsodie Nr. 1 und Tschaikowskys Klavierkonzert b-Moll. Ein Spass fur alle Pianisten, zum eigenen Vergnugen oder als Zugabe geeignet.

This collection of 27 pieces, transcribed and edited by the Howells scholar Jonathan Clinch and published for the first time to coincide with Matthew Schellhorn's recording of the complete piano music by Howells for Naxos, reveals a previously neglected aspect of this celebrated English composer. The pieces chart the musical development of Howells, from his earliest known work “The Arab's Song,†written when he as 16, to the “Petrus Suite,†completed in his 80s, as well as demonstrating his fascination with French music (“Phantasy,†“Harlequin Dreamingâ€) and the Tudor period (“Pavane†and “Galliard.â€) The volume also includes the moving tribute to his friend and fellow composer Finzi. Comprising a wide array of pieces from characterful miniatures to more substantial suites, the collection will appeal to Howells devotees and lovers of 20th century English music, as well as to anyone seeking fresh and distinctive piano repertoire. Includes: The Arab's Song • To a Wild Flower • Romance • Melody • Legend • Summer Idyls: I. Meadow-Rest • II. Summer-Song • III. June-Haze • IV. Down the Hills • V. Quiet Woods • VI. Near Midnight • VII. In the Morning • Phantasy • Harlequin Dreaming • Minuet for Ursula • My Lord Harewood's Galliard • Finzi: His Rest • Siciliana • “Comme le cerf soupire...†• Pavane and Galliard • Petrus Suite: Finnicle's Scherzo • Gavotte • Vagrant Flute • Minuet • 'Sine Nomine' • Bassoonic's Dance • Odd's Minuet • Toccatina.

The pieces contained in this volume were composed in the decade between 1918 and 1928, the perios in which Howells established himself as a composer of instrumental music. Although he wrote no major work for the Piano, hecontributed some finely crafted and charming miniatures to the repertoire of character pieces popular in the early part of this century. This is fine music, idiomatically written for the Piano, which fully justifies itsreturn to circulation in this reprint.
