This piece was inspired by a variety of music such as Broadway musicals, French cancan, and circus marches. A special rhythm pattern called “Ipponjime” (or “Sanbonjime”) is played by the percussion (3 + 3 + 3 + 1) in the first four measures.This is how people freely clap their hands when ceremonies or parties end in Japan. This custom of clapping hands reflects Japanese people’s spirit to readily move on to the next step. As the infectious work comes to its exciting conclusion every player shouts “yeah!”ensuring you will definitely hear rapturous applause!

Aan dit werk liggen diverse muzikale inspiratiebronnen ten grondslag, zoals Broadwaymusicals, de Franse cancan en circusmarsen. Een Japans ritmepatroon komt in de eerste vier maten naar voren in het slagwerk. Het centrale deel bevatsolo’s voor xylofoon en piccolo, die in de smaak zullen vallen bij uw publiek, zeker wanneer de solisten al improviserend een aantal technische staaltjes laten horen. Indien gewenst kan de instrumentatie worden gewijzigd. Na hetsologedeelte komt het eerste thema terug en volgt er een opbouw naar een opwindend slot, waar iedere speler “yeah!” roept. Met wat aanvullende showelementen zal het applaus nog uitbundiger zijn.

Zu diesem Werk ließ sich der Japaner Takamasa Sakai von einer breiten Palette an unterhaltsamen Musikstilen inspirieren, wie z.B. Broadway-Musicals, französischem Cancan und Zirkusmärschen. Aufregende Soli für Xylophon und Piccolo, Gelegenheiten zur Improvisation, ein traditionelles japanisches Klatsch-Rhythmusmuster sowie ein spannendes Finale sind die Zutaten zu einem Stück, das dem Publikum mit Sicherheit den im Titel versprochenen Applaus entlocken wird!

Applause! (“Applaudissements”) s’inspire de divers styles musicaux tels que les comédies musicales de Broadway, le célèbre French cancan et plusieurs airs de marches de cirque. Le développement est surprenant, rafraîchissant et plaisant la fois pour les musiciens et le public.

Applause! s’ispira a diversi stili musicali quali le commedie musicali di Broadway, il celebre cancan e marce circensi. Lo sviluppo è sorprendente, fresco e piacevole per i musicisti ed il pubblico.

Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Edited by Ulrich Leisinger. Arranged by Hans Schellevis. This edition: urtext edition. Paperback. Barenreiter Urtext. Classical. Vocal Score. KV 427. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA09188_90. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA09188-90).

ISBN 9790006565108. 27 x 19 cm inches. Key: C minor. Text Language: Latin. Preface: Ulrich Leisinger.

Mozart's magnificent unfinishedGreat Mass in C minor K. 427is impressive not only for its monumentality and musical beauty but for its fragmentary state which has fascinated scholars and performers for decades.

Working together with the International Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg, Barenreiter now presents a new edition of this work, reflecting the cutting edge of scholarship while doing justice to the needs of performers.

High scholarly standards, the completion and reconstruction of movements: this pioneering publication incorporates all this in order to come as close as possible to the work itself:
- TheKyrieandGloria, both of which survive complete in Mozart's hand, are edited in accordance with scholarly standards.
- The first two sections of theCredohave been meticulously completed by the editor Ulrich Leisinger, drawing on original Mozart compositions e.g. the ariaDeh vieni non tardarfromThe Marriage of Figaroand paying attention to a stylistically appropriate and transparent sound.
- TheSanctusandBenedictus(with theHosanna), which are either incomplete or survive only in secondary sources, have been reconstructed by the editor.

Sections without any known sources are left out in this edition. Rounding off the publication is an extensive Foreword (Ger/Eng).

The first performance of Ulrich Leisinger's new edition was given in April 2019 in the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg by the Hamburg State Philharmonic Orchestra and the ChorWerk Ruhr under the baton of Kent Nagano. The first Austrian premiere took place in Salzburg on August 2019 in the Great Hall of the Mozarteum, with Andrew Manze conducting the Salzburg Camerata to rousing applause from audience and critics alike.

The C-minor Mass reconstruction by Helmut Eder on the basis of the New Mozart Edition (BA 4846) is still available: the score and performance material are on hire, the vocal score is on sale.
