Charles Gounod composed this Requiem under the impact of the death of his four-year-old grandson, Maurice. According to information handed down, while finishing the details of this work he was overtaken by death. It was published posthumously in various constellations by his pupil, Henri Busser, but the only complete version from the pen of Gounod is the version for large orchestra, which is published here for the first time in a critical edition. Gounod's Requiem, unlike many contemporary settings of the Mass of the Dead, is not characterized by darkness and terror. Rather, with all of its trepidation - expressed through a marked chromaticism - an atmosphere of hopeful expectation, of trust in the grace and equity of the divine judge predominates. This confidence finds its expression in the choice of the fundamental key of C major, which is rather unusual for a requiem. The work was given an impressive performance on the occasion of the first anniversary of Gounod's death in the Parisian church of Sainte-Madeleine under the direction of Gabriel Fauré and it was highly acclaimed by the contemporary press. Score and part available separately - see item CA.2731500.

Spring has finally arrived. The days grow longer, birds prepare to nest, trees turn green and plants begin to bloom as nature wakes up from her winter sleep. This, and the fact that the composer’s third grandson was born in the spring, were the inspiration for Spring Song.

Het is voorjaar! De dagen worden langer, de vogels bouwen hun nestjes, bomen hullen zich in het groen en alle planten beginnen te bloeien. Kortom: de natuur ontwaakt uit haar winterslaap. En precies in dit jaargetijde zag ook hetderde kleinkind van de componist het levenslicht. Lente en nieuw leven: voor Jan de Haan twee prachtige inspiratiebronnen voor zijn nieuwe werk Spring Song!

Es ist Frühling. Die Tage werden länger, Vögel bauen ihre Nester, die Bäume schlagen aus und alle Pflanzen beginnen zu blühen. Kurz gesagt: Die Natur erwacht aus ihrem Winterschlaf. Der Frühling und der glückliche Umstand, dass just zu dieser Jahreszeit sein dritter Enkel das Licht der Welt erblickte inspirierte den Komponisten zu seinem Stück Spring Song.

C’est le printemps : les jours s’allongent et la nature sort de son sommeil hivernal. C’est toute l’effervescence du printemps qu’exhale Spring Song. En outre, cette ravissante pièce célèbre également la naissance du troisième petit fils du compositeur, né au printemps.

E’ primavera: la natura si risveglia, gli uccelli preparano i nidi, gli alberi e le piante cominciano a fiorire. Uno spettacolo che la natura ci regala puntuale ogni anno. Spring Song trasuda di questo splendore e vuole essere per Jan de Haan un benvenuto al mondo al suo terzo nipote, nato appunto in quella che è per molti la stagione più bella dell’anno..
