La renommée de Carl Maria von Weber repose principalement sur , Der Freischütz '. Le succès sans précédent de cet opéra éclipsé tous ses autres travaux et a contribué à leur chute de plus en plus dans l'oubli . Certains travaux tels que , Preciosa ', , Oberon , et , Euryanthe ' , les ouvertures, concertos en solo et sonates pour piano , des lieder et chambre oeuvres jouissent d'une grande popularité et ont été largement connus en Allemagne et à l'étranger aussi tard que la deuxième moitié de la 19ème siècle . Cependant , toute chance d'une renaissance de Weber et influentoeuvre considérable a été perdu dans les années 1920 , quand une édition complète - commencé par Hans Joachim Moser et avec les contributeurs potentiels, y compris Wilhelm Kempff , Hans Pfitzner , Max von Schillings , Fritz Stein et Richard Strauss - a échoué après le troisième volume .Depuis , il ya eu de nombreuses tentatives pour relancer une édition complète des oeuvres de Weber , mais que ce genre de projet , il aurait fallu la collaboration de chercheurs des deux côtés de la frontière inter- allemande , la situation politique après 1945 n'était pas propice à une telle entreprise . Négociations approfondies ont conduit aux premières mesures concrètes dans les années 1980 . L'intention , dès le début , était de placer l'oeuvre de Weber dans son contexte, et ne pas se séparer de sa production musicale de son travail influent comme un écrivain , critique et organisateur dans le domaine musical , mais de publier ses compositions avec ses lettres, journaux et d'autres la production littéraire comme le meilleur moyen de documenter la fertilisation croisée entre ses activités musicales , littéraires et pratiques .Depuis la réunification des deux - groupes de travail allemands concernés - à la Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin , et au Séminaire Musikwissenschaftliches , Detmold / Paderborn - ont coopéré sur l'édition complète des oeuvres musicales ( c. 45 volumes de la série 10 : sacré musique - cantates , des odes et des autres travaux occasionnels- oeuvres scéniques , lieder et des oeuvres vocales - oeuvres orchestrales , musique de chambre , musique pour piano - réductions pour piano - Miscellanea , arrangements et orchestrations , des oeuvres d' attribution douteuse ) . Les journaux (6-8 vol.) Sont édités à Berlin et les lettres (8-10 vol.) Et d'autres écrits ( 2 vol. ) À Detmold .Cette édition complète vise à constituer une base fiable de débat scientifique , ainsi que pour la pratique de la performance authentique de la musique de Carl Maria von Weber . Conforme aux normes d'éditions historico-critiques récentes , le matériau textuel sera basé sur les sources authentiques disponibles , accompagnés par une documentation détaillée de la genèse et une liste de variantes pour chaque travail . L'importance musicologique des travaux sera évaluée en les plaçant dans leur contexte historique , la présentation de leur genèse , l'histoire et les commentaires critiques . Les lettres , les écrits et les journaux seront considérés comme interdépendants et pertinente à l'autre dans les commentaires , donc les lecteurs devraient bénéficier d'une foule de renseignements concis et renvois . / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Instruments Divers

Par CHARPENTIER MARC-ANTOINE. Marc-Antoine Charpentier fut un des plus féconds et plus remarquables musiciens de la fin du XVIIe siècle. Il a laissé une oeuvre considérable de musique religieuse. Il se distingue par la personnalité qu'il affirme dans les différentes formes de ses compositions. Il a écrit de nombreux psaumes, des motets pour les principales fêtes liturgiques, des leçons de Ténèbres, des Oratorios et Histoires Sacrées. La plus grande partie de ces oeuvres sont encore manuscrites et constituent le précieux fond des MELANGES, conservé à la Bibliothèque Nationale dont est extraite la Messe de Minuit pour Noël, à 4 voix, ftûtes et violons. Voici les Thèmes de Noël employés pour construire cette Messe: Kyrie: Joseph est bien marié... - Or, nous dites - Marie... - Une jeune pucelle... Gloria: Les Bourgeois de Chartres... - Où s'en vont ces guays bergers... Credo: Vous qui désirez sans fin... - Voici le jour solennel de Noël... - A la venue de Noël... Sanctus: O Dieu que n'étais-je en vie... Agnus: A minuit fut fait un réveil... Note de l'éditeur: Il a été jugé opportun de procéder à une révision de cette oeuvre, excellemment restituée d'ailleurs par H. Letocart, mais où de nombreux passages du texte original, d'écriture anormale, demandaient un travail d'élucidation et de mise au point. Cette nouvelle édition, revue par Edmond Marc comprend le Credo qui n'existait pas précédemment. / classique / Répertoire / Choeur et Orgue

Faroese poems set to music by Peter Bruun Martin Ødegaard Hugi Gudmundsson Svend Hvidtfelt Nielsen Britta Byström Gavin Bryars and Alwynne Pritchard. Preface: The Faroese word 'Innlit' has many meanings such as insight enlightenment perspective and understanding. It symbolises what this project is about. Since it's creation in 1998 commissioning of new vocal music has been one of the main objectives for the vocal ensemble MPIRI. We wanted to actively contribute to the Faroese repertoire of vocal sheet music and until now MPIRI has commissioned more than 50 musical pieces. Before this project however only from Faroesecomposers. With 'Innlit' we wanted an external perspective and put together a collection of poems by Faroese writers all written in the new millennium. In 2011 together with Edition Wilhelm Hansen we invited selected composers from the Nordic region and Britain to compose music using these texts and the result is a CD together with this corresponding book of sheet music published by Edition Wilhelm Hansen. A more poetic translation of the word 'innlit' is 'the colour of what is inside'. We hope that this music can help reflect the colour of Faroese culture.

5 Continents. Cette collection par Gwyn Arch de dix chansons folkloriques peut-être petit, mais cinq continents sont représentés au sein de ces 76 pages, et chaque continent.Du Mexique (Amérique du Sud) vient de La Cucaracha (le cafard), une chanson populaire en langue espagnole avec une mélodie mémorable et Cielito Lindo qui est tré par les Mexicains comme une sorte d'hymne national alternative. Le continent africain est représenté par une chanson à partir de la Tanzanie, Malaika, et une autre Afrique de l'Ouest se réjouir dans le titre Jikela Emaweni hamba sia. Les deux chansons ont été associés à la célèbre chanteuse sud-africaine et militant des droits civiques Miriam Makeba, et de nouvelles paroles (en anglais) ont été fournis par Stuart Smith. En Russie (Europe) musique folklorique est étroitement liée à la vie du village et ses traditions. Kalinka est la rêverie d'un jeune homme sous un pin, tandis que le bouleau Little était un symbole de la beauté en Russie soviétique. Le quatrième continent est l'Asie. S'il ya une chanson juive connue par les Juifs et non-Juifs, il doit être Hava Nagilah. Tum Balalaika est également un traditionnel yiddish, mais il est d'origine juive russe. Le Folkmusic des Maoris de Nouvelle-Zélande (Océanie) est principalement associée à la guerre chants appelé Haka, mais Hine e Hine et Pokarekare Ana révèlent l'influence des colons milieu du 19e siècle britanniques. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Piano

Bridges was an outstanding humanitarian and writer, whose poetry has inspired me before in The Voice of Desire, a song-cycle for mezzo-soprano and piano. This short, fast-tempo setting aims to emulate the swift, fleet-footed rhyme and metre of the two-verse poem, with its unobtrusive but telling reference to 'man in his hasty days'. J.W. Commissioned by the Chapter of St Paul's Cathedral to mark the 90th birthday of HM The Queen, generously supported by the Boltini Trust. Performed at the National Service of Thanksgiving for HM The Queen's birthday at St Paul's Cathedral, London, on Friday 10th June 2016 in the presence of HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. Music by Judith Weir, Master of the Queen's Music, words by Robert Bridges, Poet Laureate in the year HM The Queen was born. Duration c. 3½ minutes I LOVE ALL BEAUTEOUS THINGS words by Robert Bridges OM (1844-1930) Poet Laureate 1913-30 I love all beauteous things, I seek and adore them - God hath no better praise, And man in his hasty days Is honoured for them. I too will something make And joy in the making - Altho' to-morrow it seem Like the empty words of a dream Remembered on waking.

Sing Pop A Cappella is a collection of a cappella arrangements of fantastic pop songs old and new, by renowned teacher, singer and director Gitika Partington. Her arrangements are used by choirs across the UK, and she emphasises that being able to read music is not necessary. Rewarding and enjoyable, Book Three continues her project to bring people together through the power of song.What's great about Gitika Partington's Sing Pop A Cappella series is how she understands that to make great music or to sing a great song, it's not necessary to be able to sight-read. It may be useful, but she has learned that there are other ways to communicate music, namely through ear training, repetition and gesture. Her arrangements, five of which appear in this book, have enabled youth and community choirs to spring up across the country, making singing truly and universally accessible. Included in this book are wonderfully rich a cappella arrangements of Ain't No Sunshine by Bill Withers, Black Is The Colour Of My True Love's Hair, Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up, Adele's Rolling In The Deep and a huge favourite, Sway (Quien Sera). Vocal scores for these innovative and enjoyable arrangements are included in standard notation, although Partington recommends learning by ear as something equally beneficial. To aid with this, the accompanying download card includes five tracks of audio for each song. One features a full performance demonstration while the other four each focus on either soprano, alto, tenor or bass. The easy download of these tracks makes learning efficient and fun, as you are able to listen wherever you are.The great thing about a cappella singing is that it can be done anywhere, with limited resources, with members who don't necessarily have any musical training. Partington has created a book that can be used by a cappella choirs who love pop music that sounds great and will thrill audiences. Sing Pop A Cappella is not just a songbook, though, it also includes an extensive introduction by Partington, as well as performance tips for each song and information on voice care and learning the tunes. It's a personal book for Partington, who is passionate about the power of music to bring people together, and enthusiastic about getting people who wouldn't believe they had the confidence or ability, to sing pop!Sing Pop A Cappella is a brilliant book for choirs of any type or size who would enjoy singing five incredible pop tunes without accompaniment. The fantastic sound of a group of people singing a well-known song in a completely new and interesting way is something that Gitika Partington knows well, and something that she wants to impart to groups across the country. Songs like this were made to be sung, so pick up Book Three and Sing Pop A Cappella! / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Piano

Britten's Jubilate is written for SATB choir and Organ accompaniment.Benjamin Britten's birthday (22nd November 1913 Lowestoft) falls on St. Cecilia's Day a happy augury for the career of one of Britain's greatestcomposers. Essentially a vocal composer Britten won international fame for his operas and song-cycles. He never abandoned the principles of tonality and was a 'modern' composer who reached a mass audience and a conservative whoseoriginality no radical would sensibly deny. He shared with his predecessors Parry Vaughan Williams and Holst an intense interest in works for amateurs and children. His brilliant gifts as a pianist and conductor coupled withhis virtuosic inventiveness also led him to compose music for great performers such as the cellist Mstislav Rostropovich and the singers Galina Vishnevskaya Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and Janet Baker.The greatestpersonal influence on his music was the Tenor Peter Pears for whom he composed many operatic and vocal roles. In 1948 Britten Pears and Eric Crozier founded the Aldeburgh Festival now one of the most respected established fornew English music. In 1952 he was made a Companion of Honour in 1965 received the Order of Merit and in 1976 the year of his death he became the first composer to receive a life peerage.Oxford University Press wasBritten's first publisher. In the early 1930s A Boy Was Born and the Simple Symphony brought him great critical acclaim and launched his compositional career. Oxford is delighted to present some previouslyunpublished pieces in collaboration with the Britten Estate. These include the Double Concerto for Violin and Viola premiered at Snape by the Britten-Pears Orchestra under Kent Nagano in June 1997; Two Portraits forString Orchestra premiered on BBC Radio 3 in December 1995 by the Northern Sinfonia under Martyn Brabbins; The World Of The Spirit the full version first performed in 1938 on the BBC Home Service the abridged

Par TALLIS THOMAS. Au XVIe siècle fut une période de bouleversements religieux en Angleterre. De la réforme protestante de Henry VIII par le biais ardent mais éphémère catholique renouveau du Queen Mary au retour de l'anglicanisme à l'époque élisabéthaine, il aurait fallu une diplomatie avisée pour un catholique romain comme Thomas Tallis, simplement rester en vie. En fait, il est devenu le compositeur le plus respecté de sa génération et est maintenant reconnu comme l'un des plus grands compositeurs du pays. 2005 est le cinq centième anniversaire de la naissance des Thomas Tallis et son génie est célébrée dans cette collection d'anglais-texted musique sacrée, sélectionnés et édité par Jeremy se fournir une source inestimable d'Introïts et les hymnes pour les chorales.

Par PITTS ANTONY. The Naxos Book of Carols is collection of both the very old and the very new. Commissioned by the leading international classical music label, Naxos, these twenty-four arrangements of traditional and original carols tell the Christmas story - from the hope of Advent and the message of the Angels, to the humble birth of the baby in Bethlehem and the coming of the King of kings. This collaboration between Naxos and Faber Music has brought this volume, containing all 24 carols in four narrative sequences, in new arrangements for SATB choir with minimum divisi. There is a good mix of accompanied and a capella (even the latter have optional accompaniments) and there is practical guidance on how the carols may be used by congregations, as well as choirs with varied resources. The original CD, performed by the award-winning choir Tonus Peregrinus and directed by the composer Antony Pitts, is included within the book making it incredible value for money. / Choral Music / Recueil / Voix Mixtes
