Il presente metodo intende analizzare ed affrontare i problemi fondamentali della tecnica clavicembalistica. Poiché lo studio del clavicembalo viene frequentemente affrontato dopo un periodo di formazione pianistica o organistica, lo studioso si trova di fronte a vari inconvenienti tecnici; la tecnica pianistico-organistica, infatti, non è adatta alla meccanica a corde pizzicate: il clavicembalo è uno strumento diverso ed autonomo, con sue proprie caratteristiche organologiche ed una sua tecnica specifica. Un approccio tecnico errato ha conseguenze fatali sulla qualità del suono e sulla possibilità di modellarlo ed asservirlo alle esigenze interpretative, e produce sgradevoli rumori meccanici. Nei casi peggiori crea problemi tecnici tali da rendere faticosa, se non impossibile, un’esecuzione perlomeno corretta, e la meccanica dello strumento può subire dei danni. È perciò di vitale importanza un lavoro di adeguamento o di ricostruzione della tecnica.I principi esposti in questo Metodo sono applicabili, con pochissime modifiche, anche al clavicordo e al fortepiano. Lo studioso vi troverà , in ordine crescente di complessità : degli esercizi di tecnica ‘pura’, pensati per isolare chiaramente il movimento da apprendere; dei piccoli frammenti – évolutions le avrebbe chiamate François Couperin – nei quali il movimento in esame è inserito in un contesto più musicale; degli studi dal meccanismo più complesso. Si è rinunciato a cominciare dal livello elementare, già affrontato da altri metodi, in favore di un maggiore approfondimento di quello intermedio. Il materiale è tratto o adattato dal repertorio, e in alcuni casi composto dall'autore. Tranne che nel caso delle scale, si è coscientemente evitato riferimenti alla trattatistica: nelle fonti storiche le istruzioni tecniche sono piuttosto generiche, mentre scopo del presente lavoro è ‘prendere per mano’ lo studioso ed aiutarlo gradualmente a costruire (o a perfezionare) la gestualità di base indispensabile alla buona esecuzione clavicembalistica. La sezione dedicata all’interpretazione è volutamente ridotta: un’analisi approfondita di tutti i problemi stilistici ed espressivi, posto che riuscisse ad essere esaustiva, richiederebbe un poderosissimo volume a parte. Lo scritto tende sempre a trasformarsi in dogma, in arida regola che non può prevedere tutte le infinite variabili che si danno nel fluire del discorso musicale: la musica si fa, e solo in parte si può spiegare. Si è preferito perciò limitarsi ad alcuni ‘consigli’, indicazioni generiche di partenza, che possono e devono essere superate, nella convinzione che l’esperienza personale e il lavoro diretto con l’insegnante siano di gran lunga più fecondi.

The Choral Collection Psalms contains over 50 settings for mixed unaccompanied choir from six centuries. It is a true treasure-trove of compositions in various styles and levels of difficulty: with some unknown new discoveries and some classics of the choral literature, the selection will enrich both worship and concerts. The 150 psalms of the Old Testament express rejoicing, joy, confidence, but also lament, grief, anger, and even doubt. The psalms are present throughout Christianity and Judaism to this day, and are sung worldwide in countless settings. The Choral Collection Psalms displays the whole stylistic and linguistic variety ranging from contemplative, simple Anglican chant through Russian Orthodox homophony to virtuoso motets with jazzy echoes. The linguistic spectrum is equally broad: English, French, German (some with added singable English translation), Estonian, Icelandic and, of course, Latin psalm settings are represented, as well as works in Church Slavonic and Hebrew (both accompanied by transliterations and a singable German text). The foreword (German / English) offers many hints regarding the performance of the psalm settings, and a detailed index will help with choosing appropriate pieces for the liturgical occasion according to the Anglican, Protestant, or Catholic calendar. Over the last ten years editor Stefan Schuck has performed two psalm compositions every week in his NoonSong series in Berlin. From the resulting 800 works, he has selected the most interesting compositions arranged according to level of difficulty. The choral director's volume includes a CD with recordings of selected works, sung by sirventes and conducted by the editor, which will help with learning and rehearsing the repertoire. over 50 psalm settings from six centuries for worship and concert use stylistic variety and mixed levels of difficulty: from Anglican Chant to virtuoso motets for four-part mixed choir, some with organ/piano accompaniment transliterations and German singing texts help with practising cross-cultural repertoire liturgical classification of all settings for Catholic, Protestant, and Anglican lectionary includes many unknown jewels such as Boze, Boze moj (Cesar Cui), Jauschew be seser eljaun (David Rubin), and Schubert's setting of Psalm 23 in the first Hebrew version CD recording (sirventes berlin, cond. Stefan Schuck) with a selection of settings helps with getting to know the pieces economical choral edition (editionchor) available.

The cantata Die Himmel erzahlen die Ehre Gottes (The heavens are telling of God in glory) BWV 76 by Johann Sebastian Bach was written for the 2nd Sunday after Trinity, which fell on 6 June 1723 in the year it was first performed. This ambitious two-part work was the second cantata which Bach wrote after taking up the position of Kantor of St. Thomas's in Leipzig. Bach's aim was evidently to demonstrate a particularly wide range of musical forms in both the arias and the recitatives in this cantata. The opening chorus is based on verses 2 and 4 of Psalm 19, with verse 4 structured as a choral fugue. Both parts of the cantata end with a chorale movement with different verses from the Lutheran hymn Es woll uns Gott genadig sein. The text refers loosely to the epistle reading from the 1st letter of St John, but deals more with general thoughts about the temptations of the Christian which can be overcome through love. Bach also performed the first part of the cantata later with minor revisions, but evidently no alterations to the text, on Reformation Day in Leipzig. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.3107600.

The cantata Widerstehe doch der Sunde BWV 54 is now one of Johann Sebastian Bach's most popular solo cantatas. The short text, which comprises three movements, comes from a 1711 collection of cantata texts by the Darmstadt court poet Christian Lehms, and warns in drastic terms that no sinner will inherit the kingdom of God. It is certainly no coincidence that Bach allocated this text to an alto voice, then often regarded as a symbol for the repentant sinner. The cantata comes from Bach's Weimar period and only survives in a fair copy of the score by Johann Gottfried Walther (music text ) and Johann Tobias Krebs (vocal text underlay). This didn't 't present any difficulties in preparing an edition. In Lehms' word book the cantata is allocated to Oculi Sunday (the third Sunday in Lent), but can also readily be sung on other occasions in the church year.
