Joseph Horovitz. Suite of five pieces for brass quintet: two trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba. Full Score. This work was composed in 1964 at the request of the well known American tuba player Roger Bobo. It was soon taken into the repertoire of the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, who gave the first BBC broadcast. The first recording was on Pye records, by the Hallé Brass Ensemble. Since then it has become a regular repertoire piece and recorded as well as broadcast all over the world. The Suite consists of five movements, all illustrating aspects of the Burlesque Theatre, Music Hall, circus and cabaret, so popular at the end of the 19th century and into the 20th. The titles of the short movements are: Soubrette Song, Trick Cyclists, Adagio Team, Soft Shoe Shuffle and Les Girls. The five orchestral brass instruments (two trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba) are exploited in a chamber music manner, but the cumulative effect has a theatrical quality in keeping with the title. / Scores

L'histoire de la composition de ce travail est venu de passer est bien connue et bien documentée: rencontre de Bach avec Frédéric le Grand et l'histoire de la 'thème royal' que le roi de Prusse 'daigné jouer' sur un pianoforte et qui Bach était d'exécuter dans une fugue.La séquence des mouvements individuels de la composition, cependant, a été incertain jusqu'à présent. Après un examen approfondi théorique de ce problème dans son livre 'Johann Sebastian Bach Opfer Musicalisches '??, l'éditeur présente aujourd'hui ses résultats sous la forme d'un volume toilé. L'ensemble correspondant des pièces est également disponible (ED 20525). / Scores

Arnold Schönberg is the central figure in the musical world of this century. His musical significance was already apparent during his life-time, but his posthumous influence has increased immensely. His work paved the way for ground-breaking changes in musical perception. This complete edition aspires to be equally indispensable for research as well as for performance. The edition is published in two series: series A in folio format contains all completed works, all piano scores prepared by the composer himself and all unfinished works suitable for performance - also fragments (large scores) which are better suited to be printed in such a format. Series B, in quarto format, contains early versions, sketches, ideas and fragments as well as genesis and a Critical Commentary. / Scores

Compilation. Second volet de la collection 'Live With, Jouez avec', la série des grands standards nous projette dans une dimension rarement atteinte sur le plan de la qualité, tant du point de vue du CD Audio, que des partitions.

Pour réaliser ce CD, nous avons apporté un soin tout particulier à l'enregistrement 'Live' d'un véritable orchestre totalement acoustique... En ce qui concerne les partition la mélodie est développée pour chaque instrumentiste, ainsi que le solo correspondant qui est écrit pour ceux qui ne désirent, ou ne connaissent, pas l'improvisation. Chacun pourra y trouver son plaisir, d'autant plus que le volume réalisé est d'un niveau très abordable pour l'ensemble des instrumentistes. / Rép International / Recueil / Scores
