The agony and angst of the stirring events of Holy Week textually and musically evolve into the jubilant celebration of the risen Christ in this moving portrayal of the most significant event in all Christendom. The remarkable beauty and sensitivity of John Purifoy's music deftly captures the extreme pathos contained in the story's darkest shadows as well as the exhilarating excitement created by the risen Christ. ...out of the shadows of darkness, Jesus triumphed ...out of the shadows of death, Jesus rose ...out of the shadows of the crucifixion, we are all reborn This inspirational presentation will be especially welcomed and successfully performed by choirs of limited resources while being equally effective and satisfying to those choirs blessed with an abundance of talent.

One of the first things that comes to one's mind when reading the title of Organ Symphony No. 9 'Pathetique' by Enjott Schneider is another work with this epithet: Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6. And that is no coincidence: The composer regards his organ work as an homage to this 'elder sister'. While Tchaikovsky, in a secret programme, made out his own life to be a struggle and long ordeal to the point of his suspected suicide, Enjott Schneider presents those hours as the ultimate tale of woe in which Jesus had well and truly become human, fatefully bearing the pain and misery of all people. 'Gethsemane', 'Geiselung: Ecce homo', 'Golgatha' and 'Grablegung': Maria Magdalena' are the names of the stages and movements. The Greek word 'pathos' means 'strong emotion, feeling, passion or suffering' - in Schneider's Organ Symphony No. 9, this comes true, musically, in his inner conflict, struggle, wrestling with his fate, cruelty of the crucifixion and deathly silence.

Erosfragmente , ein Stuck fur einen Schlagzeugsolisten, gehort zu meiner Sehnsuchtstrilogie mit Pothos (fur Schlagzeug solo) und Himeros (fur Schlagzeug, Harfe und Zuspielungen). Pothos, Himeros und Eros sind nach einer griechischen Mythoserzahlung Sohne des dusteren Zephiros. Eros ist die Energie schlechthin, das Streben nach dem Vollkommenen, nach dem Guten und Schonen, wie Platon Sokrates sagen lasst. Eros ist ein Helfer auf dem Erkenntnisweg. Erosfragmente ist fur 18 Klangschalen, Toy Piano und wenige andere Instrumente geschrieben. Am besten gibt ein Zitat des Stringtheoretikers Juan Malceda die inneren Faszinationen und Anziehungskrafte in meinem Stuck wieder: ,,Es ist wie bei einem See. Die Oberflache sieht glatt aus, Insekten laufen darauf. Aber mikroskopisch gibt es keine Oberflache, da wackeln nur Molekule; und daraus geht die Oberflache hervor. (Suddeutsche Zeitung, 27. Juli 2012, S. 18). Klangschalen haben es in sich! Je nach Schlagel und Lautstarke des Anschlags entfalten sie die verschiedenartigsten Klange und Nachhalldauern, manchmal bis zu einer Minute. Dagegen fallt der Klang des benutzten 25-tonigen Toy Pianos rasch ab, ist sozusagen ein Gegenmodell. Bis auf zwei Ausnahmen sollen alle Klangschalen weiterklingen durfen. Daraus ergibt sich die stets sich verandernde, vibrierende Harmonik der Klanggestalt-Oberflache. In mehreren Schichten bilden Molekule Oberflachen, die wieder als Molekule Oberflachen bilden, die wieder ... Herausfordernde Klangmelodien und irisierende Klangwolken, die da auf den Horer zukommen, benotigen naturlich die Empathie des Laufers. Nicht nur die Metallschalen und Klangstabe schwingen, alles schwingt und auch unser Korper schwingt auf den vielschichtigsten Ebenen. Schwingungen umschwingen uns aber auch. Die Vernunft, die in unseren Korpern liegt, braucht immer wieder den Eros nach der Schonheit von Musik. Fragmente haben offene Enden. Die Anschlagsrhythmik und die resultierenden Klangdauern sind gezahmt in einer Massstabstruktur von 57x21 Einheiten. Jede Einheit ist durch metrische Impulsgliederungen aufladbar. Die Nachklange bleiben die Daueranarchisten. Eros selbst hat kein Wesen, er ist die Energie. In ,,Erosfragmente hat er kompositorisch gerichtete Abstrahlungen und man braucht nochmal Eros, um etwas entstehen zu lassen. Sonst kriegen auch Insekten nasse Fusse. (Nicolaus A. Huber, 2012) Bibliography : ,,Es gibt Dinge, die sind richtig, aber sie ruhen. Nicolaus A.

The three pieces From Jewish Life were composed by Swiss-American composer Ernest Bloch in 1924, the same year he took U.S. citizenship. Though clearly inspired and influenced by Jewish experience, they are purely concert pieces, and do not provide any specific liturgical significance.The first movement, Prayer, is a deeply heartfelt plea to the almighty. As Neil W Levin writes, The initial four-note motive in the minor mode, together with its elaboration in the ensuing phrases, sounds as if it might have served as the skeletal model for Max Janowski's (1912-1991) now well-known setting of the High Holyday prayer Avinu Malkenu. This prayer has special meaning in my own spiritual life, as I have been singing it since my childhood. Both Prayer and Janowski's Avinu Malkenu are cantorial in nature, to be sung with heartfelt pathos.The second movement, Supplication (the act of begging humbly), has more angst, almost a sense of urgency as a result of the rhythmic motor in the piano. The third movement, Jewish Song, evokes a quintessentially Eastern-European melancholy. Its falling motives with bent intonation might represent the pain of the Jewish experience.The works were dedicated to Dutch-American cellist Hans Kindler, a highly influential musician of his time, and founder of the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington, D.C. Mr. Kindler was the soloist for the world premiere of Bloch's most celebrated work, Schelomo in 1917.Though the popularity of Bloch's oeuvre has been dominated by works of Jewish connection, we should not forget that Bloch had many other stylistic periods, including Franco-Belgian, modal, serial, and even American folk. In 1927, he was awarded Musical America's composition prize in a unanimous vote, despite being regarded as an outsider by American music writers at the time. His winning work America (1928) was performed by every major orchestra and conductor in the following seasons.

The myth of El Dorado (“the golden oneâ€) stems from the story of a powerful chief who used to cover himself with gold dust before bathing in a sacred lake where he threw precious objects as offerings to the gods. The myth was soon relayed to the Spanish conquistadors and inspired many expeditions, although the invaders didn’t bring back nearly as much gold as they expected, if any at all. Eldorado is a mysterious and dynamic work that illustrates the myth of the golden man and the European expeditions that followed. With a touch of exotic influences, the music is varied and rich. This piece was commissioned by the French Cultural Association Lille 3000 as part of theirEldorado-themed festival in 2019. De mythe van El Dorado (de man van goud) is het verhaal van een machtig opperhoofd die zichzelf met goudpoeder bedekte voordat hij ging baden in een heilig meer waar hij ook kostbare voorwerpen aan de goden offerde. Deze mythe werd al snel bekend bij de Spaanse conquistadores en vormde de aanzet tot vele expedities, hoewel de veroveraars niet met grote hoeveelheden goud terugkwamen, zoals ze hadden gehoopt. Eldorado is een mysterieus, dynamisch werk dat het verhaal van de gouden man verklankt, alsmede de Europese expedities die op touw werden gezet. Met een vleugje exotische invloeden is de muziek gevarieerd en rijk aan schakeringen. Het werk werd geschreven in opdrachtvan de Franse culturele organisatie Lille 3000 als onderdeel van het thematische programma Eldorado in 2019. Der Mythos von El Dorado (der Goldene“) handelt von einem mächtigen Herrscher, der sich vor dem Baden in einem heiligen See mit Goldstaub bedeckte und als Opfergaben an die Götter kostbare Gegenstände in den See warf. Der Mythos sprach sich bald bei den spanischen Eroberern herum und war der Grund für zahlreiche Expeditionen doch sie fanden nicht annähernd so viel Gold, wie sie erhofft hatten. Eldorado ist ein geheimnisvolles und dynamisches Werk, das den Mythos des goldenen Mannes“ und die daraus resultierenden Expeditionen der Europäer darstellt. Durch ethnische Anklänge ist die Musik sehr abwechslungsreich. Dieses Stück wurde vom französischen Kulturverein Lille3000 für den Themenschwerpunkt Eldorado“ im Jahr 2019 in Auftrag gegeben. Le mythe de l’El Dorado (« le doré ») raconte qu’un puissant seigneur se faisait enduire de poudre d’or avant de se baigner dans un lac sacré où il jetait des objets précieux en offrandes aux dieux. Ce mythe a rapidement été relayé par les conquistadors espagnols et est l'origine de nombreuses expéditions. Mais les envahisseurs rapportèrent beaucoup moins d'or qu'ils n'espéraient. la fois mystérieuse et dynamique, Eldorado est une Å“uvre qui dépeint le mythe de l’homme doré et les expéditions européennes qu’il inspira. Gr ce ses échos ethniques, la musique est riche et variée. Cette Å“uvre est une commande de l’association culturelle Lille 3000 pour l’éditionthématique Eldorado du festival 2019.
