1. Arrival Dream 2. Snow Squalls 3. It Happens 4. East Wind 5. A Clearer Memory The contrasting aspects of nature are a major theme in the work of Rhian Samuel, and in her song cycle Spring Diary for baritone and piano she responds passionately to its vernal magic. Beginning in dream and ending in memory, the five movements of the collection are a dramatic response to the turning season in Wales, conveyed through the fine detail of its characteristic weather and landscape as observed by the poet Anne Stevenson. Premiered at London's City University, Spring Diary is excellent material for graduate singers and pianists, who will draw inspiration from its vivid and assured word-setting and substantial and evocative keyboard part.

Best known for his settings of spirituals and influence on Dvorák, Henry T. Burleigh was a celebrated baritone, and a prolific composer of original works. FROM THE SOUTHLAND is a suite of six atmospheric scenes of the American south, inspired by Black musical and cultural traditions. FROM THE SOUTHLAND is within reach of intermediate pianists and artistically suited for professional recitals.In 1835, Henry T. Burleigh’s maternal grandfather purchased his own release from slavery for the sum of $50, and traveled north out of Maryland to begin a new life as a free man. He established his family in Ithaca, NY, and then moved to the bustling lakefront city of Erie, PA, where three decades later his grandson Henry would be born and raised.For Burleigh, the “Southland†that inspired this collection of piano sketches was a distant place that could not have been more different from the physical world he knew, up there in the northern snowbelt. And yet these southern landscapes and vignettes must have been intensely present in his consciousness, absorbed through the stories and songs he first learned at his grandfather’s knee.The music of the South – the spirituals and work songs he heard as a child –would travel with Burleigh throughout his long and illustrious musical life. Even as he progressed through his early classical training, his career as a baritone soloist in Erie’s churches and synagogue, his move to New York to study at the National Conservatory of Music, and his rise to national prominence as a concert soloist, these ancestral melodies stayed firmly centered in his musical identity.When he wrote From the Southland, his only composition for solo piano, Burleigh was just beginning his career as a composer. The art songs that would establish him as one of America’s best known composers in the genre were still to come. And so were his iconic arrangements of spirituals that would bring the songs of slavery onto concert stages around the world, transformed into timeless and uniquely American music.These little piano sketches bring together all the things that made Burleigh the musician he was – the lush, late-romantic style of his time; a broad vision for American music; and a profound respect for his heritage, a memory of the world his grandfather left behind, and a love of the music he brought with him.

These twelve piano miniatures, of increasing difficulty, are a magical distillation of Ming Wang’s long-desired encounter with the Alpine landscape: Rustling Brook, Two Marmots, Colourful Clouds, The Cricket and the Butterfly, The Day the Snow Fell, Lullaby, Mountain Song, Eternal Ice, Ptarmigan’s Song, Dancing Wind, The Valley of Echoes and Ice Pellets. Written mostly in the conventional manner but also incorporating playing techniques and sound effects frequently used in New Music, they are an ideal introduction to the composer’s sound world – a mixture of European contemporary language and Asian colour. Detailed performing instructions, with added fingering by pianist and teacher Przemek Dembski, help to make these brief, unique works a joy for pupil and teacher alike.

Micantia is the Latin word for ‘things that are twinkling/shimmering/shining/sparkling, ...’.. The inspiration for this piece is found in many sudden observations of beautiful sceneries like sunbeams shining through clouds, snow crystals in winter time or icy landscapes. In a way too hasty world, the piece is meant to slow down a little and give you a moment of reflection on how mesmerizing the world is around us.

This suite was written in the style of traditional Russian folk music, but does not use existing melodies or themes as its basis. The colourful and varied work contains a number of surprising turns, but also familiar sounds. After the introduction, a kind of Trepak follows ? a fairly quick dance with attractive themes. The second movement (Garovot) is predominantly slow and conveys some melancholy, although, during a more dynamic passage the passion flares up again. Finally, the Troika takes us along in a reindeer sleigh through a grand snowy landscape. This is a wonderful tribute to the music of Eastern Europe in the style of some of the great Russian masters.Net als Rikudim, Puszta en Balkanya, eveneens van de hand van Jan Van der Roost, is deze kleurige en gevarieerde suite geschreven in de stijl van traditionele Russische muziek, zonder dat bestaande melodieën of thema’sals basis hebben gediend. Tanczi bevat een paar verrassende wendingen, maar ook vertrouwde klanken. Na de inleiding volgt een soort Trepak: een tamelijk snelle dans met fraaie thema’s. Het tweede deel (Garovot) isoverwegend langzaam en ademt enige melancholie, al laait tijdens een dynamischer middengedeelte de passie weer op. De Troika neemt ons ten slotte mee in een rendierslee door een weids sneeuwlandschap. Een werk vol afwisseing!Wie seine Werke Rikudim, Puszta und Balkanya schrieb Jan Van der Roost diese Suite im Stil russischer Volksmusik, ohne dabei bestehende Melodien oder Themen zu verwenden. Melancholie, aber auch feuriges Temperament, Virtuosität neben sehr vertrauten Momenten und melodischer Ausdruck neben würzigen Rhythmen: Das alles steckt in der Seele russischer Musik. Diese klangfarben- und abwechslungsreiche Suite wartet mit einer Reihe überraschender Wendungen auf, enthält aber auch vertraute Klänge.Cette suite colorée et variée contient des cheminements surprenants dans un paysage sonore caractéristique de l’ me musicale russe. L’introduction est suivie d’une danse rapide qui s’apparente au Trepak ; les thèmes sont accrocheurs. Le second mouvement, Garovot, est lent dans l’ensemble et quelque peu mélancolique. Pourtant, la passion renaît dans un passage plus animé. Enfin, Troika nous emmène pour une promenade en traîneau tiré par des rennes travers un vaste paysage enneigé.Questa suite colorata e varia contiene cammini sorprendenti in un paesaggio sonoro caratteristico dell’anima musicale russa. L’introduzione è seguita da una danza veloce simile al Trepak; i temi sono combattivi. Il secondo movimento, Garovot, è lento e malinconico. Ma la passione rinasce in un passaggio più animato. Infine, Troika ci accompagna in una passeggiata su una slitta trainata da renne attraverso un paesaggio innevato.
