Welcome Repertoire Piece Josef Schelb (b. 1894 in Bad Krozingen) belongs to that generation of composers who had to cope with two world wars, severe recessions, and the fatal effects of the Third Reich. Schelb turned to impressionism, expressionism, dodecaphony, and atonality, without, however, firmly settling in any direction, but developing his distinctive personal style out of all this. He is a master of the polyphonic treatment of motives and themes. His Concerto for Englisch Horn and String Orchestra was composed in 1970 in Baden-Baden after he became acquainted with Helmut Koch, the solo English hornist of the former SWF Symphony Orchestra Baden-Baden. The three-movement concerto interweaves tonality, dodecaphony, and polyphony in a fascinating and yet discreet manner. A late work of impressive cantabile and yearning poetry, it will quickly secure its place in the up-to-now slim English-horn repertoire.

Alan Turing is considered the father of modern computational science and much, if not all, of our modern computer technology and the connectivity that we now take for granted is born of the work of this one great, but troubled man. His famous test was designed to prove whether artificial intelligence (AI) could successfully imitate human thought. The single movement of The Turing Test is essentially non-programmatic, but it does seek to show something of the emotion and colour of Turing’s life in its different sections. The composer employs bi-tonality and complex rhythms to show opposing worlds colliding. At the end of each test, we must decide: has true AI beenborn?

Alan Turing wordt beschouwd als de vader van de moderne computerwetenschap. Veel, zo niet alle, moderne computertechnologie en connectiviteit die we nu vanzelfsprekend vinden, vloeien voort uit het werk van deze ene geweldige maar getroebleerde man. The Turing Test is in wezen een niet-programmatische compositie aan één stuk, maar in de verschillende gedeelten komt wel iets van de emotie en kleuren van Turings leven terug. De componist heeft geprobeerd bitonaliteit en complexe ritmes te gebruiken om naast elkaar bestaande werelden te laten botsen. Aan het slot van elke test moeten we ons afvragen: is hier sprake van ware kunstmatige intelligentie?

Alan Turing wird als Vater der modernen Informatik angesehen, und vieles, wenn nicht sogar alles, was für uns inzwischen an moderner Computer- und Informationstechnologie selbstverständlich ist, basiert auf der Arbeit dieses großartigen, aber sorgenschweren Mannes. The Turing Test ist im Grunde genommen kein programmatisches Werk, aber es möchte Emotionen und Facetten von Turings Leben in einem einzigen Satz, der aus verschiedenen Abschnitten besteht, wiedergeben. Der Komponist hat versucht, Bitonalität und komplexe Rhythmen zu verwenden, um das Aufeinanderprallen der verschiedenen Welten darzustellen. Am Ende jedes Tests müssen wir entscheiden, ob wahre künstlicheIntelligenz geboren wurde.

Alan Turing est estimé être le père des sciences numériques modernes et la plupart, sinon l’intégralité, des technologies et des connectivités informatiques modernes établies aujourd’hui sont nées du travail de ce grand homme troublé. The Turing Test n’est en fait pas programme mais cherche dépeindre l’émotion et la couleur de la vie de Turing dans les sections différentes, en un seul mouvement. Le compositeur utilise la bitonalité et des rythmes complexes pour illustrer deux mondes opposés qui se heurtent. A la fin de chaque test, nous devons décider : la vraie intelligence artificielle, est-elle née ?

Forsyth's Modern Wind Music is a series of volumes containing exciting and challenging, but not unduly difficult, works by talented English composers of current or recent vintage for recital, study or recreation. Each volume includes three works with piano, one unaccompanied piece, and one piece for two or more players of the instrument. In this volume for horn two aubades by David Ellis and John Golland (Ascent) reflect traditional associations of the instrument, whilst Anthony Gilbert's Two Birds by Kuring-Gai show the horn in an unusual guise and where written whilst the composer was living in the spectacular landscape of New South Wales. James Langley's music is well known to horn players and his fanfare-like Caccia for solo horn and Trident for three horns are both welcome additions to a slender repertory.

England enjoys a rich folk song tradition. Composers such as Cecil Sharp and Vaughan Williams rekindled an interest in this heritage at the beginning of the 20th century by arranging numerous songs, some of which were transcribed for the _x001F_first time. Philip Sparke selected three songs from the 18th and 19 century for his Three Folk Song Miniatures: the _x001F_shermanâ??s song Dance to Your Daddy, the love song O Waly, Waly and Bobby Shafto, a song from the northwest of England.

Engeland heeft een rijke traditie op het gebied van volksmuziek die door de jaren heen een beetje in de vergetelheid raakte. Componisten als Cecil Sharp en Vaughan Williams brachten hierin verandering door voor het eerst talloze liederen bundelen en soms zelfs voor het eerst tenoteren in modern notenschrift. Philip Sparke koos voor dit werk drie liederen uit de 18e en 19e eeuw: het visserslied Dance to Your Daddy, het liefdeslied O Waly, Waly en Bobby Shafto, een lied uit het Noord-Westen van Engeland.

England kann auf eine lange Volkslied-Tradition zuru?ckblicken. Komponisten wie Cecil Sharp und Vaughan Williams weckten Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts erneut das Interesse an diesem Erbe, indem sie zahlreiche Lieder sammelten und teilweise erstmals notierten. Philip Sparke wählte fu?r seine drei Volkslied-Miniaturenâ?? drei Lieder aus dem 18. und 19. Jahrhundert: das Fischerlied Dance to Your Daddy, das Liebeslied O Waly, Waly und Bobby Shafto, ein Lied aus dem Nordwesten Englands.

Comme beaucoup dâ??autres pays, lâ??Angleterre jouit dâ??une longue tradition de chansons traditionnelles transmises oralement au _x001C_fil des siècles. Three English Folk Song Miniatures rassemble trois airs populaires (Dance to you Daddy, O Waly, Waly et Bobby Shafto), prodigieusement arrangés pour orchestre junior ou formation incomplète. Comme dans toutes les publications de degré de diffi_x001F_culté 1 1 ½ des éditions Anglo Music, les parties des registres ténor et basse peuvent être jouées par diff_x001B_érents instruments, ce qui permettra aux orchestres incomplets de toujours produire un son ample et généreux.

Lâ??Inghilterra è una nazione ricca di canti popolari. Allâ??inizio del XX secolo, compositori quali Cecil Sharp e Vaughan Williams risvegliarono lâ??interesse verso questa preziosa eredit raccogliendo e in parte arrangiando numerosi canti. Philip Sparke ha scelto per le sue â??tre miniatureâ?, altrettanti canti del XIII e XIX secolo: la canzone dei pescatori Dance to Your Daddy, O Waly, Waly, una canzone dâ??amore e Bobby Shafto, un canto proveniente dalla parte nord-occidentale del paese.
