24 Heine-Vertonungen. Par STEFFEN WOLFGANG. To familiarize oneself with the basics of lied singing and at the same time work on technical and artistic issues using short and varied lieder, there is no way around the German 'Vaccai”. With lieder based on Heine's poems and following the Italian example Nicola Vaccai, Steffen Wolf succeeded in creating a real highlight in voice teaching. Each volume comprises the lieder with the international phonetic transcription below the music, short pedagogical comments on technical and artistic issues as well as a CD with recordings of the songs and piano playbacks in the respective voice range. Singers: Miriam Alexandra (soprano), Yvi Jänicke (alto), Dávid Csizmár (baritone) and the composer (tenor) himself. They are accompanied by the pianist Henning Lucius, who also recorded the piano playbacks for every CD./ Méthode / Voix Haute

Lent and Easter Cantatas-72 Solo Cantatas for Voice Melodic Instrument and Basso continuo.Lent & Easter - High Voice.When Telemann issued his first annual cycle of printed cantatas Der Harmonische Gottesdienst (Hamburg 1725-6) he was already one of the leading cantata composers of his time. Thanks to their brevity and their simple scoring the 72 solo cantatas have remained very popular to the present day.These editions (BA 5891 through to BA 5896) divide the annual cycle into cantatas for high voice and cantatas for medium voice.Each series spreads the works over threevolumes accompanied by separate parts for solo instrument and continuo. The cantatas follow the order of the liturgical year beginning with the Christmas season and continuing with Easter and Trinity.Being practically minded Telemann arranged the ambitus of the vocal parts so that the cantatas for medium voice are ‘also suitable for an ordinary alto or bass’.Similarly the solo instruments are suitable for Violin Oboe Recorder or Flute.Interesting solo cantatas for use in church services.Urtext from the Telemann Edition.Separate parts for instrument and continuo.
