Jacques Offenbach's more than 100 stage works are an endless treasure trove of vocal highlights with highly different musical moods and lyrical themes. To mark the 200th birthday of the great composer in 2019, which is at the same time the year of the 20th anniversary of the Offenbach Edition Keck OEK, the editor and Offenbach expert Jean-Christophe Keck has assembled a selection of arias. The four-part collection arranged according to voice category shows a rather unknown, romantic side of Offenbach. Apart from rediscovered works and first editions, however, the collection is not complete without some of his unrivalled hits. Among the characters figuring in the soprano volume are not only title figures like the Beautiful Helen, the Grand Duchess of Gerolstein or the Princess of Trébizonde but also figures from more serious operas: Armgard from Les Fées du Rhin or Elsbeth from Fantasio. The volume presents stage works, including excerpts from Barkouf, Les Bergers or Le Roi Carotte, that are accessible for performances only as of recently. Romantic Offenbach is aimed at fully trained and budding professionals as well as at Offenbach fans of every shade and colour, providing repertoire pieces for recitals, studies or private music-making.

The Sonata op. 12 is the largest of Sibeliuss piano works. Sibelius may have composed it in the summer of 1893. The second movement comes from a work originally planned for male choir to a text from the Finnisch national epic Kalevala. Something of its character my still have shaped the final outcome, with its restless opening bars, sparkling writing in the pianos high register, the calming homophonic passages, and soothing arpeggio writing. The first public performance took place on April 17, 1895, in the Solennity Hall of Helsinki University. The first edition was published by Breitkopf & Hartel in 1906. Over and beyond the excellent music text, this volumes contains an extensive preface by Sibelius expert Kari Kilpelainen.

«Come è possibile conciliare il divertimento con l?apprendimento? Le esigenze degli allievi con quelle degli insegnanti?»In altre parole: «Come si può definire un percorso didattico che sia nello stesso tempo divertente, perché i bambini possano divertirsi a suonare fin dall?inizio; facile, cioè strutturato in modo tale da poter essere usato veramente da tutti, indipendentemente dalle doti musicali naturali o dal tempo disponibile per lo studio; efficace, per superare i classici ostacoli dei principianti (difficoltà di lettura e di comprensione melodico-ritmica dello spartito; difficoltà di collegare ciò che si legge e si conosce all?esecuzione) e per sviluppare quelle prime basi del linguaggio musicale (intonazione, senso ritmico, comprensione armonica, fraseggio), che permetteranno in seguito di affrontare i repertori desiderati?»Queste sono le classiche domande, che molti insegnanti si pongono. La risposta, che nasce dalla mia ventennale esperienza di insegnante di chitarra in scuole di musica comunali e private, è: «Partendo dalla realtà dell?allievo e lasciandosi guidare dalle sue esigenze musicali in continua evoluzione». Coerentemente con questo postulato, ho iniziato un?attenta osservazione dei miei allievi allo scopo di capire ciò di cui avevano bisogno per cominciare a suonare la chitarra e cercando di intuire, decodificare e concretizzare in musica i loro segnali. Il metodo di ricerca e i risultati ottenuti sono descritti dettagliatamente nelle Note per l?insegnante.

Duet For Solo Cello 'for Cello and dramatic cellist' by Andy Pape . The title of this piece may seem to proffer conflicting musical terms: however the performance involves a Cellist absorbed in the composed material. The emphasis is on the theatrical although the musical content requires an accurate interpretation. Vocal sounds, removal of clothing, and a serious dose of acting is required.

The content and formal structure of the two-movement Poem have been subjectively borrowed from the poem Steps [Stufen] by Hermann Hesse. The frequently appearing short motifs in both parts of the work are based in 'magic formulaic style' on the parable of the Glass Bead Game which in the ring for the game with coloured beads becomes a game with symbols.Magic and dreams, a sense of departure and grievance and valediction and transfiguration are the moods which follow one another, frequently in rapid succession - fundamentally the thirst for life and the yearning for sorrow and consummation.

The composer writes about his work: The piece was written for the 2006 Spring Festival. The wording of the commission requested me to try to express what a Mozart opera means to our era. It was as a banner rather than as an internal motto that I used this one sentence: Die Strahlen der Sonne vertreiben die Nacht, zernichten der Heuchler erschlichene Macht. ( The rays of the sun expel the night and annihilate the power of the Deceiver ). At that time and in our day too, only as his last utterance in the final act can Sarastro announce this to the people gathered around him. Das Stück wurde für das Frühlingsfestival 2006 komponiert. Der Auftrag lautete, ich solle versuchen zu formulieren, was eine Mozart-Oper für unsere Zeit bedeutet. Eher als Transparent als ein inneres Motto nutzte ich den Satz: ’Die Strahlen der Sonne vertrieben die Nacht...’ Sarastro kann den um ihn Versammelten diesen Satz damals wie auch heute nur als letzten Satz des letzten Aktes verkünden.†(Dániel Dinyés).
