Paperback-The Rhyme Of Taigu is a lively and powerful work for full Orchestra. The piece explores the energy and spirit behind Japanese Taiko or 'fat drum' (Taigu in Chinese). As a result the Percussion plays a key role providing an aggressive drive throughout the whole work and often in competition with the brass particularly in the thrilling climax.

The Bohuslav Martinu Complete Edition III/1/5. Par MARTINU BOHUSLAV. “Incarnation” (1956), Bohuslav Martinu’s fourth piano concerto, follows an atypical two-movement structure. It was composed for Martinu’s friend Rudolf Firkušný, who played from a copy of the autograph until 1970, when the composition was first put into print. The next work, “Concerto in B flat major for Piano and Orchestra”, known under the name “Fantasia Concertante”, was to be Martinu’s very last concert work. The concerto in three movements, composed at the request of Swiss pianist Margrit Weber, is quite different from the previous work in terms of its compositional means. In this case, Martinu strongly influenced the edition of the work. The present volume of the Complete Edition of works by Bohuslav Martinu is based mainly on contemporary copies containing the composer’s own modifications. The edition presents numerous new findings about the genesis of both works./ Recueil / Orchestre

Par DUFOURT HUGUES. Il s'agit d'une oeuvre particulièrement représentative du genre de peinture qui a pris son essor pendant le Xe et XIe siècles sous le règne de la dynastie des Song du Nord (960-1127) et qui place la peinture chinoise sous le signe de l'unité retrouvée. Le style 'nordiste', inauguré par Ching Hao et Kuan T'ung se trouve porté à son point de tension extrême par Fan K'uan (fl. 990-1020) dont le Voyage par-delà les fleuves et les monts figure et résume la peinture des grands maîtres classiques de cette époque. L'art du trait calligraphique s'applique au traitement des parois et des surfaces, tout comme les rides en goutte d'eau servent à renforcer les effets de hauteur. Il existe, dans cette toile, une certaine contradiction entre l'éloignement des choses et le caractère abrupt d'un mur primordial qui s'impose avec une évidence absolue. On voit une imposante falaise rocheuse s'arracher d'un abîme et s'élancer jusqu'au ciel, comme un surgissement de l'inaccessible, surplombant un paysage escarpé que vient encore aiguiser le relief âpre et tourmenté de la végétation du premier plan. A la verticale, une broussaille de forêts lointaines semble agrippée aux sommets. Sur la droite, la chute vertigineuse d'une cascade tombant des hauteurs se déroule comme un ruban de soie. En avant-plan, un groupe de rochers laisse entr'apercevoir, plus bas, une caravane de mules dont le trait presqu'imperceptible laisse pressentir l'insignifiance de l'être humain face à l'immensité de la nature. On notera aussi le style sévère et dépouillé de ce paysage majestueux, son allure austère et solennelle qui souligne le caractère sacré des montagnes - la demeure des dieux - dans la peinture monumentale de paysage des Song du Nord. L'altitude est le véritable personnage de cette oeuvre célèbre, une peinture sur soie, d'encre et de couleurs légères, qui est conservée au Musée national du Palais de Taipei, à Taïwan. J'ai cherché à rendre ce sentiment plénier de la nature au grand orchestre, en sorte que l'articulation du souffle ne soit jamais interrompue par des notations accidentelles ou des velléités de développement. La pièce se déroule d'un seul tenant, comme une trame élémentaire, à l'image d'une continuité où toute interruption est arbitraire. Elle est parcourue d'un seul rythme enveloppant des tensions opposées - ascension et suspens, émergence et pesanteur. Une association instrumentale y domine, celle du pupitre des clarinettes allié à celui des trombones, avec des modes de jeu qui projettent les trombones dans l'extrême grave et diffractent le son de la clarinette en un tremblement de multiphoniques. Deux compositeurs, Ivàn Solano, clarinettiste, et Dominique Delahoche, tromboniste, ont bien voulu me guider dans cet inventaire des nouvelles ressources instrumentales. Il est difficile de parler de la forme de l'oeuvre, puisqu'il s'agit d'une transformation incessante, constitutive, à l'instar d'une forme-flux sans cesse renaissante et tendue vers un perpétuel effort d'intégration et de condensation. La forme n'est plus qu'une puissance obscure et négative qui se confond avec le rythme de la couleur ou de la masse. Une toile de fond 'd'harmonie-timbre', constamment dressée, suggère l'étendue et la profondeur, et figure, si l'on veut, une sorte de fond spatial qui serait l'espace même du paysage. Les seuls événements qui scandent le processus sont des 'coulées de forces' qui excèdent toute limite définie et suggèrent des régimes dynamiques variés. Ce Voyage par-delà les fleuves et les monts, d'après Fan K'uan, est l'objet d'une commande conjointe de l'Orchestre Philarmonique de Nice et du CIRM.

With the ?Concerto for Orchestra ? Henle inaugurates a series of affordable study scores based on the text of the Bartók Complete Edition. When Bartók received the commission to compose this piece from Serge Koussevitsky in May 1943 it meant not only financial support but also an important creative impetus for the gravely ill composer. By October the five-movement concerto which Koussevitsky enthusiastically dubbed ?the best orchestral work of the last 25 years ? was already complete. The first performances in the winter of 1944 45 were also very successful. Nevertheless Bartók was moved to set down an alternate ending which thecomposer who passed away in September 1945 would never be destined to hear. Bartók specialist Klára Móricz includes both versions in her edition and summarises the history and transmission of the ?Concerto for Orchestra? in a fascinating foreword. A brief commentary section provides information about the principles underlying the edition.

Carl Nielsen is now widely celebrated as Denmark’s greatest composer particularly for his symphonies which range from late Romantic explorations to more audacious neo-classicism in the later years. In the tone poem Pan and Syrinx Nielsen began to express some of his more adventurous harmonies and timbres which he then expressed more fully and in more abstract form in his masterpiece Fifth Symphony. Nielsen had an obsession with ancient Greece and its myths and the inspiration for Pan and Syrinx is drawn from Ovid’s Metamorphoses. The story concerns the chaste nymph Syrinx who is chased by Pan to the river’s edge where the river nymphs grant her request for assistance bytransforming her into water reeds. From the reeds Pan fashioned his original set of panpipes. Nielsen’s short work expresses the natural world the conflict between the male and female forces the anxiety of chase and transformation and the unsettled ending of the tale. Nielsen frequently chose it for performance when he created a program of his own works. The Orchestral colours are original and striking and display the composer’s restless inventiveness.
