The traditional Jewish practice for the holiday of Hanukkah is to recall ancient miracles and increase the light in the world by lighting a nine-stemmed menorah. One candle is added each night until the menorah is full on the eighth night. After lighting the candles each night, those gathered around the menorah sing these ancient blessings. The first two blessings are sung on all eight nights, and the third blessing is only sung on the first. This melody, first published in New York in 1922, is commonly used throughout the world. It is sung by crowds of thousands gathering to light a community menorah and small families gathering in their homes alike.

- Vocal score based on the New Mozart Edition - With an easy-to-play piano part and spacious layout - Compatible with the full score (BA04880) and performance materialThe richly orchestrated Missa in C minor K. 317 was probably one of the first church music works that Mozart composed at the beginning of 1779 as the newly appointed Salzburg court organist. With a large orchestra, choir and four soloists, the composer impressively demonstrates his skills. The nickname Coronation Mass has a long tradition and is already mentioned in the first edition of the Köchel catalogue; however, it does not go back to the premiere, which took place on one of the Easter holidays in April 1779. In all probability, the mass was performed in 1791 at the coronation celebrations in Prague for Leopold II and â after his unexpected death â in 1792 for Franz I under Antonio Salieri.For this vocal score, Andreas Köhs has provided an improved orchestral reduction which optimally transfers the instrumental parts to the piano while ensuring playability. The vocal parts are based on the Urtext of the New Mozart Edition.

Ports of Call, a suite of five movements for two violins and guitar was written for the Trio Triento for their New York debut. Composed in the Summer of 1992, it was premiered in April 1993. 1992 was the 500th anniversary of the 1492 expulsion of the Jews from Spain and, of course, Columbus' trip to America. To commemorate these important events, I was commissioned by organizations in 20 major cities to write an oratorio. The result was Ever Since Babylon. The musical material was greatly influenced by tunes from around the Mediterranean region. These Sephardic melodies took on treat meaning for me, and I took five of them and expanded them into these five pieces which are actually dances. I felt that the combination of two violins and guitar lent itself well as a vehicle for this music. The names of the cities are used because the tunes originated in these particular locations. Marseille, a typical provencale dance with naturally changing meters and a light, airy, touch. Alexandria, much more mysterious and languid, reflecting the heat and inertia of that glorious city in slow though sometimes steady movement. Salonika, a wild dance in typical Greek fashion celebrating a holiday with abandon. The whirling movement goes relentlessly from beginning to end. Haifa is represented by two beautiful chant-like pastoral tunes which introduce the beauty and luminous quality of this, one of the most beautiful parts in the Eastern Mediterranean. Valencia, the last, a tribute to medieval Spain. The music is a culmination of the influences of the three great cultures, Moslem, Christian, and Jewish, which flourished there for hundreds of years. It is an uplifting dance with just a tinge of sadness in the center, since the Golden Age of which the tune was a part, had come to a tragic end in 1492. --Samuel Adler.
