for Upper Voices and Orchestra. The Lost Words by composer James Burton takes its inspiration and text from the award-winning ?cultural phenomenon? and book of the same name by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris: a book that was, in turn, a creative response to the removal of everyday nature words like acorn, newt and otter from a new edition of a widely used children?s dictionary. Both the book and Burton?s 32-minute work, which is written in 12 short movements for upper-voice choir in up to 3 voice parts (with either orchestral or piano accompaniment), celebrates each lost word with a beautiful poem or ?spell?, magically brought to life in Burton?s music. At its heart, the work delivers a powerful message about the need to close the gap between childhood and the natural world. Burton?s piece was co-commissioned by the Hallé Concerts Society for the Hallé Children?s Choir and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. The piano accompaniment version was premiered at the Tanglewood Festival in 2019 by the Boston Symphony Children?s Choir, of which Burton is founder and director. The Hallé Children?s Choir will premiere the orchestral version of the full work in Manchester, UK, post-pandemic.

Singing in English-The Boosey Voice Coach is an entirely new concept in vocal training. Not a self-teaching manual and not filled with off-putting diagrams this series is a wholly practical guide to singing - learning about technique and interpretation through the repertoire itself. Each volume is devoted to singing in one particular language. In each volume of the series works from the vocal canon have been selected specifically by Mary King for their technical and musical challenges. Each piece is discussed at length starting with the words ('Text' - including a literal translation as appropriate) moving to general advice about how the song might be approached ('Notes') and thenaddressing the technical difficulties the music presents ('Skills'). Expressed in clear language Mary King's approach is direct practical and not limited to one particular teaching method. Any student will find that these books enrich and complement their vocal studies.Singing in English: Even for native speakers the English language presents singers with particular difficulties. How do you manage diphthongs for example? How do you make consonants clear without spoiling the vocal line? How do you make sense of the story-telling in a strophic folksong? These issues and more are covered in this book which contains songs with texts in the English language from Britain and elsewhere.

Instrumentation : High voice - Pf (Fr.) Those interested in French music have often had reason to be grateful to Roger Nichols; his writings on Debussy, Ravel, Messiaen and Poulenc are indispensable to the music lover. Nichols now turns his attentions to the mélodie, where it is his mission to encourage singers to explore beyond the well-trodden paths of French song. In these two anthologies he does not ignore masterpieces by composers of the stature of Fauré and Duparc, but sets them alongside music - almost impossible to find elsewhere in print - by such under-estimated figures as Reber, Viardot, Massé and Paladilhe. Even the more celebrated songs are often not easily found in practical editions, which makes this selection an ideal starting point for wider exploration. In each of these volumes the songs appear in the chronological order of their composer's birth, but Nichols somehow contrives a line-up of music which seems delightfully arbitrary at the same time as carefully designed to enrich everyone's understanding of the mélodie. The books also contain a remarkable amount of scholarship, lightly worn and pithily expressed. As well as complete translations of the songs, there is a useful and concise introduction on singing in French, together with an illuminating historical note and critical commentary; and Nichols gives full due to the poets who were of crucial importance in the development of the mélodie tradition.

Christina Rossetti’s poem The Birthday or My Heart is Like a Singing Bird was published in 1857 and was the subject of at least a dozen musical settings before Hubert Parry. Parry had developed the habit by this point of memorizing a text and ‘cogitating’ on it before beginning composition.In this song Parry employs rippling semiquaver movement in both hands to establish the ecstatic nature of the piece which he only pauses at the climactic ‘Because my love is come to me’ most effectively. It remains one of his best-loved songs.

The ups and downs of disappointed love: who could fail to sympathize with the feelings that Schumann immortalized in his song cycle Dichterliebe after Heine? The pieces range from hopeful anticipation(?Im wunderschönen Monat Mai?) to solitary grief (?Und wüssten?s die Blumen die kleinen?) and bitter sarcasm (?Die alten bösen Lieder?). Schumann knew what he was writing about: the cycleoriginated in the year of his marriage to Clara Wieck an event that took place only after years of struggle. Originally the sixteen-piece cycle was meant to include twenty lieder. Our volume reproduces the four discarded numbersin an appendix.

5 Continents. Cette collection par Gwyn Arch de dix chansons folkloriques peut-être petit, mais cinq continents sont représentés au sein de ces 76 pages, et chaque continent.Du Mexique (Amérique du Sud) vient de La Cucaracha (le cafard), une chanson populaire en langue espagnole avec une mélodie mémorable et Cielito Lindo qui est tré par les Mexicains comme une sorte d'hymne national alternative. Le continent africain est représenté par une chanson à partir de la Tanzanie, Malaika, et une autre Afrique de l'Ouest se réjouir dans le titre Jikela Emaweni hamba sia. Les deux chansons ont été associés à la célèbre chanteuse sud-africaine et militant des droits civiques Miriam Makeba, et de nouvelles paroles (en anglais) ont été fournis par Stuart Smith. En Russie (Europe) musique folklorique est étroitement liée à la vie du village et ses traditions. Kalinka est la rêverie d'un jeune homme sous un pin, tandis que le bouleau Little était un symbole de la beauté en Russie soviétique. Le quatrième continent est l'Asie. S'il ya une chanson juive connue par les Juifs et non-Juifs, il doit être Hava Nagilah. Tum Balalaika est également un traditionnel yiddish, mais il est d'origine juive russe. Le Folkmusic des Maoris de Nouvelle-Zélande (Océanie) est principalement associée à la guerre chants appelé Haka, mais Hine e Hine et Pokarekare Ana révèlent l'influence des colons milieu du 19e siècle britanniques. / Voix Elevée(s) Et Piano

Originaltonarten für hohe Stimme. Written in 1885, the eight songs after texts by the now little-known poet Hermann von Gilm have a special place in Richard Strauss? corpus of Lieder. For the first time, he composed an entire set of songs on texts by a single poet, collecting them into one opus that was also to appear in print. Some of the numbers in it, like ?Zueignung,? ?Die Nacht,? and ?Allerseelen,? are among the most popular Strauss songs of all time, but the entire cycle with its well-planned structure is also worthy of closer examination and performance. The aspiring composer quite consciously aligns himself with the tradition ranging from Schubert to Wolf, choosing the highly Romantic subject of unrequited love and illuminating its most diverse facets. The primary source for the Henle Urtext edition is the first edition from 1887, which Strauss furnished with a dedication to the Royal Bavarian chamber singer Heinrich Vogl - a serious invitation to today?s male singers not to leave these wonderful Strauss songs solely to female singers!
