Scored for SATB chorus and orchestra The Building of the House was written for the inaugural concert of the new Maltings concert hall Snape at the 20th Aldeburgh festival.

Missa Pro Defunctis-Cherubini owes his fame as a church composer primarily to the Requiem in C minor of 1817. It was held in extraordinarily high esteem by such composers as Beethoven and Schumann and served as a model for early 19th-century Requiem settings.Dispensing entirely with solo voices it captivates with its rigorous formal concentration and its restrained use of musical resources in both Choir and Orchestra.This Urtext edition takes into account not only the autograph score with spartitino (additional instruments written in by hand) but also the first edition and a copyist’s manuscript. Rounding off this exemplary Urtext publication is an informativeIntroduction and a Critical Commentary (Eng).

Dyson's sumptuous choral epic of 1938 subtitled ‘A Cycle of Poems’ charts man's journey through life and the afterlife using a collage of English poems. Quo Vadis is a work that in its aim design and achievement reaches for visionary heights. Right from the start Dyson's harmonic language and skilful orchestration are completely at the service of his beautiful and carefully crafted libretto. The composer fervently believed in the English choral movement's need for practical tuneful and lively music. Quo Vadis with its colourful orchestration and fine melodies demonstrates the effectiveness of this aestheticapproach. Arranged for SATB Chorus and Orchestra this major yet often overlooked piece lasts about 90 minutes in 9 movements.Sir George Dyson was a well-known English musician and composer of the 20th century. His compositions include a symphony in G major a violin concerto and a number of other works many of them for choir. Apart from his musical career Dyson was involved with the military during WWI his handbook on grenade-fighting techniques became the standard Army text for many years.

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 .

Heilig-Messe-Bernard of Offida 1604 1694 was a Capuchin monk whose saintly life and devotion to the sick and poor caused him to be beatified by Pope Pius VI on 19 May 1795. St. Bernard?s name day falls on the 11th of September (a Saturday in 1797) and it is generally thought that Haydn combined doing honour to the Capuchin monk with the production of a new Mass for his patron the day thereafter.Apparently later performances in Eisenstadt added horns to double the trumpets in the tuttis and just as in the previous Mass the clarinet parts were enlarged; it is almost certain that the new clarinet parts are either by Haydn or (shall we say) ?supervised? by him. As inthe Mass in Time of War conductors have the choice of two orchestrations: with or without doubling horns and with or without the supplementary clarinet parts.The Heiligmesse has always been one of Haydn?s most admired works. Its dignity its strength (we draw special attention to the extraordinary ?Gratias? with its brilliant contrapuntal writing) the subdued orchestral grandeur to which the B-flat trumpets contribute a silvery but unmartial weight all these have made it one of Haydn?s most serious and most deeply sensitive church works: its constant popularity in Viennese churches is quite deserved.Urtext from Joseph Haydn WerkeFull score (together with Missa Cellensis [Mariazellermesse] Hob.XXII:8; Missa brevis Sti Joannis de Deo [Little Organ Mass] Hob.XXII:7; Missa in Tempore Belli [Mass in Time of War] Hob.XXII:9) available for saleParts (BA4651) and vocal score (BA4651-90) available for sale

In preparing for publication the 1935 orchestral version of Britten's Te Deum in C it became clear that there were a number of discrepancies between the manuscript and the original 193 vocal score. Some of these were minor:different articulation and dynamic markings something Britten was later very fussy about but perhaps left unchanged on proof because of his relative inexperience at this stage of his career with the processes of musicpublishing. Others were more important: wrong pedal notes for example which Britten failed to notice on proof and which have been perpetuated in performances and recordings for nearly seventy years. These have been corrected inthe new edition of the vocal score and in the orchestral score (Britten clearly used the published vocal score to prepare his orchestral version). The two versions have been made consistent in other details - rehearsal cues andbar numbers for example - since Britten intended choristers to use the vocal score to perform the orchestral version. This would have been an easy task for these is little discrepancy in essential details between versions (arare departure occurs in bars 53 to 56 where the works 'Lord God of Sabaoth' are unaccompanied in the orchestral version but doubled by Organ in the original). Sustained Organ chords are often filled out with arpeggiated stringwriting while the spacing of chords is frequently much wider in the string version with melodies transposed into different octaves. Although harmony in both versions is identical voice leading is sometimes altered in the latterto make it better suited to the idioms of the instruments concerned.So although in essence the two versions are the same the soundworld explored in each is quite distinct. Britten's orchestral version should neither beviewed as an occasional piece nor considered solely a liturgical work like many of his choral pieces from the 1930s and 1940s it is equally at home in church and concert hall.

c-Moll-Cherubini's Requiem in C minor for SATB and Orchestra.Cherubini’s Requiem in C minor for mixed choir (without vocal soloists) and orchestra which is presented here in a critical new edition is among the most significant contributions to this genre in the 19th century. It was composed in Paris in 1816 and within a short time it became well known. Musicians such as Beethoven Schumann and Brahms held it in high esteem because of the work’s superior compositional construction orchestration mastery of form and the balance in proportion between text and music.

Cantata for string orchestra and chorus. Triptych represents the concatenation and re-orchestration of two extant works. Movement I was commissioned with funds from The RVW Trust for the inaugural concert of the Choir of London conducted by Jeremy Summerly in Christ Church, Spitalfields on 18th December, 2004 - the work, premièred as Threnody, was subsequently toured by the Choir to Jerusalem and the West Bank from 19th-26th December, 2004. Movements II and III, commissioned by Portsmouth Grammar School with financial support from the PRS Foundation, were premièred as And There Was a Great Calm in a contiguous version for lower strings and upper voices by the Portsmouth Grammar School Chamber Choir and the London Mozart Players in a concert at Portsmouth Anglican Cathedral on 13th November, 2005 conducted by Nicolae Moldoveanu. The title of this latter section is taken from Thomas Hardy's poem of the same name, written at the signing of the Armistice on 11th November, 1918 - a couplet from which is set, in a moment of tranquillity, in the final movement. Relatively new to living in New York, I am much more aware of the independent, vibrant cultural plurality that exists today - it's probably the single most dazzling facet of the City and is largely responsible for the infamous 'edginess' that pervades daily life there. With this in mind, I set to work on Threnody (movement I here) in 2004 - I wanted to write something that was relevant to the Israeli/Palestinian issue without losing that City 'edge'. The texts, in English, are excerpted from a variety of sources: William Penn, William Blake, the Psalms of David and Muhammad Rajab Al-Bayoumi, an Egyptian poet of the early twentieth-century. Fast and rhythmically influenced by the music of North Africa in its syncopations, this movement was the first composition that evolved entirely from my New York perspective. From the moment that the commission for And There Was a Great Calm (movements II and amp - III here) was offered, I knew the piece I was about to embark upon would end up being linked with Threnody in some way. I realized that what I had been aiming for in Threnody served as a template for this new piece, originally composed for a Remembrance Sunday concert. Musical works connected with commemoration or memorials are often suitably pensive and slow - I wanted to start with that concept, but to bring in some of the relentless urban rhythms that had been such a large influence on my life in the preceding two years. The result is that that the second movement is quiet and gentle (a moment of recollection), while the final movement is much faster and vibrant, returning to a more openly elated rendering of the start of Triptych (the texts here dealing with transmigration and the future). and nbsp - I gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Bruce Ruben and Judith Clurman, as well as that of my parents, with the collation of the texts.
