The Song of the Earth, composed in the summer of 1908, is Mahler's best-known and most personal work. Reflecting drastic changes in his life, its immense emotional density is very moving. Until the very end, Mahler continued to refine the extremely differentiated instrumentation, as is evident in numerous retouchings in the autograph score and engraver's model. It is therefore all the more regrettable that he was neither able to perform his Symphony in Songs himself nor that he was involved in its printing. Unfortunately, in the posthumously published first edition of 1912 and the subsequent editions edited by Erwin Ratz and Karl Heinz Fussl, many questions remained unanswered, while other were answered in a dubious way.The edition is the first text-critical one of the work on a scientifically sound basis. It offers not only a more reliable musical text, but also systematically and lucidly prepared information on the sources, their transmission and evaluation. All editorial decisions have been documented in a transparently comprehensible manner - in particular those leading to new audible results. Work-related notes on performance practice, which for the first time include Mahler's conducting indications, offer valuable, indispensable interpretive aids. In addition to the regular five clarinet parts, the set of parts includes two additional parts (3rd clarinet/Eb clarinet, bass clarinet/3rd clarinet in places where the latter plays Eb clarinet) to allow performances with only four clarinets.The completely revised piano reduction reproduces the orchestral texture true to the score without losing sight of playability. Both Mahler's piano autograph and the piano reduction by Woss, which was commissioned by the composer himself, served as an inspiration for this.

Der Komposition gehen keine aussermusikalischen Eindrucke voraus, sondern sie konzentriert sich auf innermusikalische Uberlegungen, weshalb es nicht leicht ist, uberhaupt Worte fur sie zu finden. In einem losen Zyklus, den ich in den nachsten Jahren fortsetzen mochte, will ich mich auf das Phanomen der innermusikalischen Bindungen konzentrieren sowie auf ihr Gegenuber, die Einschnitte, Trennlinien oder Kontraste. Jenseits der Tonalitat stellt sich mit jeder neuen Komposition auch die Frage erneut, was zwei Klange zusammenhalten kann, was Ferne und Nahe bedeuten, was das Lose ist und was das Gebundene. Stehen solche Uberlegungen in meinen anderen Kompositionen im Dienste anderer Visionen, so will ich ihnen hier wie ein Geologe auf den Grund gehen.Immer wieder ziehen sich Linien durch die Musik, im konkreten Sinne melodischer Phrasen, aber auch im allgemeinen Sinne der Weiterfuhrung von Klangcharakteren. So unterliegt die Musik permanenten Wandlungen, gehalten von imaginaren Faden, die sich auch verknoten, vernetzen oder vervielfaltigen konnen. Gleichzeitig gibt es auch Einschnitte, scheinbar losgeloste Geschehnisse, die wie unbegrundet hineinplatzen, und dennoch vergleichbar mit einem Stein in einem Fluss ihren Einfluss auf den Verlauf des Ganzen nehmen.Liaison - der Titel beschreibt zwei Seiten dieses Projektes, namlich einerseits die Bindung als innermusikalisch fokussiertes Thema, andererseits den Antrieb, sich mit einem solch basalen Phanomen der Musik erneut zu beschaftigen: die Liaison als Liebesbeziehung, in der die einfachsten Dinge doch wieder zu einem Ratsel werden konnen.(Isabel Mundry).

Bach's great ,,Heaviness Cantata - Now with a new piano-vocal score by Matthias Grunert.
ISBN 9790004313107. 9 x 12 inches.
The cantata I had great heaviness of heart BWV 21 is one of the most popular and beloved vocal works of Johann Sebastian Bach. Intended for a performance on the third Sunday after Trinity as well as in ogni tempo (for any occasion), this work occupies a special place within Bach's cantata oeuvre. Particularly unusual is not only its approx. 40-minute duration, but also the work's wealth of forms and sounds. Matthias Grunert, cantor of the Dresden Frauenkirche, put together an entirely new piano-vocal score to this main work from Breitkopf's Bach Cantata series. His work is supplemented by a revised new engraving of the continuo part.Bach's great ,,Heaviness Cantata - Now with a new piano-vocal score by Matthias Grunert.

The Blues is a well-known style of popular music. The name does not come out of thin air. After all, the term ‘blues’ refers to a state of mind: with the sentence ‘I got the blues’ someone means they are in low spirits. The blues originate in the melancholic music that the slaves in the southern United States made to relieve their depressing circumstances to some extent. This new concert work makes use of ‘blue notes’ (the flattened 3rd and 7th notes of the scale) which give this exciting work its blues sound.Roland Kernen erinnert in seinem Stück Blues Forever an den Ursprung des Blues in der melancholischen Musik der schwarzamerikanischen Sklaven in den Südstaaten der USA. Die Musik drückte das tiefe Leid aus, diente aber zugleich als Trost und Stärkung. Charakteristisch für diesen Musikstil ist damals wie heute die Verwendung so genannter blue notes“, die auch in Kernens authentischem, bewegenden Werk häufig auftauchen. Le blues s’est façonné dans les plantations du Sud des États-Unis. C’est dans cette musique mélancolique que les esclaves tentèrent d’apaiser quelque peu les souffrances d’une vie de misère. Le blues devient alors source de consolation. Parmi les éléments qui caractérisent ce genre musical, on trouve les blue notes, composantes fondatrices du style, qui apparaissent également dans cette composition de Roland Kernen.

Schubert's setting of Psalm 23 Gott ist mein Hirt (The Lord Is My Shepherd) D 706 was originally intended for a quartet of female voices, but already performed by women's choirs regularly in the 19th century. It was composed by Schubert in December 1820 for the pupils of the singing class of Anna Frohlich at the Vienna Conservatory, who performed it regularly from 1821 onwards in the concerts for conservatory exams. The first public performance took place in 1828 at the Vienna Musikverein, again four years later it was published posthumously by Diabelli. With this piece, Schubert ended a personally unsuccessful year 1820 in which he was plagued by a compositional crisis and even received a warning for slandering the authorities. The lyrical and multi-layered piano accompaniment of Schubert's original is interpreted in a colorful way in the arrangement by Hans Zender for an orchestra with instruments such as marimba, glockenspiel, mandolin and celesta, thereby giving the piece a special appeal. The choral score with piano part can also be used for this arrangement.

The Sechs Evangelien-Motetten (Six Gospel Motets) were composed by Johann Nepomuk David in 1957/58 and published as single editions by Breitkopf & Hartel in 1958. By this time, he was professor of music theory and counterpoint at the conservatory in Stuttgart. This later period of his composing activities also expresses itself in the music: demanding counterpoint is connected with expressive chromaticism and wide-range dynamic differentiation in these six settings of gospel texts. Compared to the almost simultaneously composed and published Sechs Evangelien-Motetten by Siegfried Strohbach (ChB 5360), the settings by David are of a higher difficulty level and therefore more suited to chamber choirs and other ambitious ensembles.CD:Vokalensemble per sonare, cond.
