Rediscovering, studying and analyzing the musical art of Philipp Joseph Hinner means enhancing a piece of the eighteenth-century harp music mosaic. Hinner's work intrigues for its extraordinary simplicity, for its regularity and harmony; the ordered balance of the parts, symmetry and sense of proportion are essential elements for the author, and give character and unity to his work. The harp repertoire has long been overshadowed by the keyboard one, which boasts extensive solo and chamber literature, and consolidated for over two centuries. The rediscovery of the history of our instrument, however, is still recent and the research work in the field of harp music is still long.Hinner, with the apparent simplicity of his opus 10, can thus regain his role in the harp repertoire of the eighteenth century, as well as covering a considerable didactic value today. The part of the first harp undoubtedly presents characteristics of greater rhythmic and virtuosic complexity than that of the second, which consists of a continuous accompaniment interspersed with simple thematic imitated episodes. Furthermore in the composition are included arias such as O ma tendre Musette, a French popular melody of the 18th century (previously set to music by Pierre-Alexandre Monsigny), and <>, taken from the opera-comique L'erreur d'un moment ou la Suite de Julie by Nicolas Dezede, as well as themes from Gluck's Iphigenie en Aulide, which had been all used also by Hinner's first harp master, Francesco Petrini (1744-1819).Hinner's opus 10, originally written in separate parts for two harps, or harp and fortepiano, is presented here updated and completed with its score, for a thorough perception of the work.

Consolation - Like A Roselike Flower (Consolazione - Flos Ut Rosa) for Harp solo by Per Norgard (2002). Written for and dedicated to Tine Rehling. Programme note by the composer: The concept of Mary has a depth that transcends all religious persuasions. All over the earth symbols of the gentle and maternal are known. But the word 'Maria' is also associated - in sound - with the Latin word for the sea, mare, and she thus become the Star of the Sea, Maris Stella. In my 3rd Symphony the Maria motif is used in a hymn section in the second, and last, part of the work. The choral song “Flos ut rosa floruit” was composed directly in the context of the symphony, and themelody had a 'stamina' that carried it over into many later vocal and choral compositions, for instance the “Concerto for Harp No. 2 - through thorns” (2003) and the present Consolazione for harp solo , both works dedicated to Tine Rehling. .

Melodia for Solo Harp/ Alleluja Modo II - Wachet auf for Harp and OrganThis publication gathers together in these three pieces the only compositions by Santucci devoted to the harp, both as a solo instrument and in dialogue with the organ, his favourite instrument.The little Melodia per arpa, a simple piece having an apparently didactic purpose, does not show the date of composition but, judging by the handwriting of the manuscript, it probably dates back to the period between 1980 and 1990. No other information has reached us as to why the piece was composed.The two pieces Alleluja Modo II and Wachet auf, both dated 20 March 1993, composed for the unusual duo of harp and organ, are dedicated to Anna Maria Restani, first harp in the orchestra of the Teatro Comunale of Bologna from 1965 to 2002, and to her son Wladimir Matesic, organist and now teacher at the Conservatoire in Trieste. Gregorian chant is the protagonist of the first piece, evoking a Gothic and rarefied atmosphere. The second is instead a blatant tribute to Johann Sebastian Bach (right from the first bars the reference to Prelude no. 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier is clear), through one of his most famous chorales (Wachet auf, ruft uns die stimme), also used by Santucci for numerous other compositions, including Il corteo dei Magi [for trumpet, organ, orchestra and choir, 1986, ms.], still performed in the Christmas concerts in Bologna. (Giuseppe Monari).

«Sono stata un?arpista attiva per mezzo secolo. Come tutti i miei colleghi, ho dovuto affrontare le difficoltà create dalla leggenda che l?arpa non abbia né musica, né storia. Fortunatamente, nel corso della mia carriera, ho potuto constatare che questa diceria è infondata e ho cercato di mettere in risalto almeno una piccola parte dell?immenso repertorio antico e moderno di questo strumento considerato un Paria della musica.Il lavoro è stato piano e diretto per i libri che ho scritto sulla musica d?arpa italiana e svizzera, perché basato su precisi titoli e frontespizi; la ricerca sarebbe stata ugualmente scorrevole per i libri che non scriverò sulla musica d?arpa francese, tedesca, austriaca, britannica, boema, spagnola, portoghese e scandinava.Per la musica olandese il cammino è un po? diverso: i pittori, i trattatisti e gli storici sono i testimoni e le guide che aiutano a ritrovare gli usi e i costumi musicali nei quali l?arpa aveva una parte importante.Il concertista in cerca di pezzi potrà utilizzare così questo libro: dopo i trattati (capitolo II), i dipinti (capitolo III), la storia e la cronaca (capitoli IV-VII), autori e musiche (capitoli VIII e IX), biblioteche ed editori (capitoli X e XI), arriverà all?indice secondo le formazioni strumentali (capitolo XII).Potrà cominciare dal cercare, in quest?ultimo capitolo, gli Autori adatti al suo gruppo e al suo programma; ritroverà i relativi dettagli nei capitoli VIII e IX; otterrà i pezzi seguendo le indicazioni dei capitoli X, XI e XII; e buona caccia, buono studio, buone prove!Nel cercare di stabilire che cosa sia olandese o non-olandese nella musica antica è stata seguita l?abitudine corrente di considerare patrimonio comune dei Paesi Bassi l?arte e la storia anteriori alla separazione delle "Sette Province" nel secolo XVI; e specificamente olandese tutto ciò che accadde in quei coraggiosi territori da allora in poi.»
