Par ADES THOMAS. In Three Studies from Couperin, Thomas Adès empathetically reworks three pieces by the Baroque composer into music that is distinctively Adès without dismissing the source material. The basic structures of harmony and duration in ?Les Amusemens?, ?Les Tours de Passe-passe?, and ?L?Âme-en-Peine? remain unchanged, but the retouching of rhythm, texture and orchestral colours reveals an enthralling music that could be no other composer. The Three Studies has earned critical praise and popularity, having received over 200 public performances in more than 20 countries since its 2006 premiere. ?Three Studies from Couperin, looks at the music as if through a kaleidoscope, the shattered pieces of the original tumbling around like glinting fragments of coloured glass.?

Par OKPEBHOLO SHAWN E.. Although Zoom! by Shawn Okpebholo was commissioned by the US Air Force Band, its title refers less to the speed of supersonic fighter jets than to the brand of telecommunications software that allowed digital reunions between isolated loved ones during the 2020 pandemic, and to the race for a life-saving vaccine. The seven-minute piece for strings and percussion evokes the glimmers of hope and joy that manage to survive in times of darkness. Zoom! received a streaming premiere, performed in December 2021 by the strings and percussion of the US Air Force Band under the baton of Col. Don Schofield. This score is published as part of the Peters Contemporary Library, with parts available on hire. / Date parution : 2022-09-07/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Chambre

Par RHEINBERGER JOSEF GABRIEL. Rheinberger’s string quartets, his string quintet and his nonet for winds and strings were often performed and were very successful works during his lifetime. Their density, but also the delicateness of the scherzo movements are in the tradition of Schumann and Mendelssohn and these traits are combined with Rheinberger’s sense for the clear, defined structure of the movements and solid contrapuntal writing. The octet for winds and strings is published here for the first time and the nonet, which is actually a reworking of this octet that Rheinberger undertook some twenty years later, is also published in this volume. Rheinberger made major changes from the original octet and headded two new movements to the nonet. Both works show especially the interest and pleasure which he derived from the variety in the differentiation of colors in ensemble playing. The Thema mit Veränderungen op. 93, which until now has been known as a work for string quartet, is published here with the double bass part which Rheinberger later added./ Répertoire / Ensemble de Chambre
