The New Essential Companion. Henrik Wiese, the internationally renowned orchestral and solo flautist, has spent four years compiling what promises to be the definitive guide to audition repertoire for students preparing for a seat in a professional orchestra. He has worked with his own students in Salzburg as they engaged in auditions, as well as with other professional players and his teaching colleagues at the conservatorium. He sourced repertoire lists from job advertisements past and present and referred to other audition lists such as those of Baxtresser and Wye. Considerable research has gone into the differences between existing editions of the chosen pieces even, surprisingly, from twentieth century composers such as Prokofiev and Stravinsky. 'The Flute Audition” then looks at practical matters such as page turns and metronome markings. Wiese comments, for example, that Hindemith's own recording takes a passage from 'Symphonic Metamorphoses” markedly slower than in the score. The result of all this painstaking research is the most comprehensive collection of international audition pieces yet published in a single volume. 'This is an excellent collection of orchestral excerpts for the next generation of young musicians. You can use it to prepare for auditions anywhere in the world. Whether it's for an opera house, symphony or chamber orchestra, everything you need is here.'/ Recueil / Flûte Traversière

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Johann Sebastian Bach’s 'Magnificat' BWV 243 was composed in its first form in E flat, right at the beginning of Bach’s period in Leipzig, possibly for the Visitation of Mary on July 2, 1723. Its performance on Christmas Day 1723 is well documented. Following a Leipzig tradition, Bach wrote four extra Christmas movements for this occasion.Only in the 1730s did Bach arrange the 'Magnificat' into the well-known version in D; the orchestration was slightly altered, particularly improving the considerable practical performance problems encountered in the E flat major version. Our critical Carus edition by Bach expert Dr. Ulrich Leisinger contains the version of the 'Magnificat in D', based on Bach’s autograph score. For Christmas performances the extra movements are available separately (Carus 31.243/50). / Date parution : 2023-08-12/ Répertoire / Solo SSATB, SSATB et Orchestre

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach's original setting of the Magnificat in E-flat major written for Christmas vespers in 1723 includes four inserts, placed at the end of the score, to give a dramataic representation of the Nativity. Although the later D major version is most often performed today, this earlier E-flat major version stands on its own merits with many attractive features which disappeared with the downward transposition.

Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. This edition of Franz Schubert's 'Magnificat” D 486 is based on the composer's autograph score and is the first to make use of his authorised performance material. It offers alternative readings that make the performance practice of Schubert's day accessible to today's performers. This entertaining large-scale 'Magnificat” was composed in September 1815. The edition is based on the Urtext from the 'New Schubert Edition” and offers an informative Foreword with editorial notes in German and English. The original figured bass numerals found in Schubert's score have been modernised in all performance material and meticulously adapted to meet the demands of today's performers./ Répertoire / Voix et Orchestre
