The Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky (1839-1881) was self-educated to a large extent but went on to become one of the ?Mighty Five? which also included Balakirev, Cui, Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov. Today he is considered the innovator of Russian music par excellence. He composed Pictures at an Exhibition in 1874, inspired by ten pictures produced by his then recently deceased friend, the Russian architect and artist Victor Hartmann. The French composer Maurice Ravel made an orchestration of Mussorgsky?s composition in 1922 which is now more well-known and more performed than the original piano suite. For his transcription of Pictures at an Exhibition, Tohru Takahashimade use of the original piano composition by Mussorgsky. The Great Gate of Kiev, issued here separately, is probably the best known melody from this classical masterpiece. De Russische componist Moessorgsky (1839-1881) componeerde Pictures at an Exhibition (Schilderijententoonstelling) in 1874. Zijn inspiratiebron vormden tien schilderijen van de hand van zijn overleden vriend Victor Hartmann,een Russisch architect en kunstenaar. De Franse componist Maurice Ravel maakte in 1922 een orkestratie van Moessorgsky’s compositie - deze is bekender en wordt meer uitgevoerd dan de oorspronkelijke pianosuite. Voor zijn ¬transcriptievan Pictures at an Exhibition gebruikte Tohru Takahahsi echter de originele compositie van Moessorgski. Dit afzonderlijk uitgegeven deel, The Great Gate at Kiev, is waarschijnlijk het bekendst.Obwohl der russische Komponist Modest Petrowitsch Mussorgski hauptsächlich als Komponist von Opern und Liedern bekannt ist, schrieb er auch eine Anzahl von bedeutenden Klavierwerken, wie zum Beispiel die weltberühmte Suite Bilder einer Ausstellung, die vielen besser in der Orchestrierung von Maurice Ravel bekannt ist. Für seine Transkription von Bilder einer Ausstellung griff Tohru Takahashi jedoch auf die ursprüngliche Komposition von Mussorgski zurück. Der separat veröffentlichte Satz Das große Tor von Kiew ist daraus der wohl bekannteste Teil, der immer wieder gerne gespielt und gehört wird.Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) est considéré comme le grand innovateur de la musique russe. Il a réalisé ses plus grandes créations dans le domaine lyrique, mais n’a jamais manqué de composer des oeuvres pour piano dont le célèbre cycle Tableaux d’une Exposition. Dixième et dernier tableau de la suite, La grande porte de Kiev est certainement le mouvement le plus connu du public. Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) è considerato il più grande innovatore della musica russa. Ha realizzato le sue più grandi creazioni nel campo della musica lirica, ma ha anche composto opere per pianoforte tra le quali il celebre ciclo Quadri di un’esposizione. Decimo ed ultimo quadro della suite, La grande porta di Kiev è certamente il movimento più conosciuto dal pubblico.

The Golden Age is a programmatic composition in four movements. I Overture For the Netherlands, the seventeenth century was a period of great flourishing in the fields of economy, culture and politics; thus it is called the Golden Age. Overseas trade boomed, and the Dutch East India Company (known as the VOC by the Dutch) was founded and expanded to become a powerful -and, at the time - modern enterprise. II ¡Adiós españoles!(Farewell, Spaniards!) In 1567, the Spanish army invaded, led by the Duke of Alva. There was a fierce resistance against the Spanish tyranny; toward the end of the sixteenth century, the Dutch proclaimed theRepublic. However, the Spanish continued the war. Only with the Treaty of Münster in 1648 did the Dutch get their much sought-after independence. This was also the end of the Eighty Years’ War. III Rembrandt’s Night WatchThe field of culture, particularly literature, painting, sculpture, architecture, the art of printing, and cartography developed fast. It was in the Golden Age that the celebrated painter Rembrandt van Rijn created his famous Night Watch. IV The Admiral Overseas trade entailed the colonization of large areas in Asia, from where precious products that yielded lots of money were brought in. Surrounding countries were also involved in such practices. Colonizers poached on each other’s territories in the literal and figurative sense - in this context the Anglo-Dutch Sea Wars are legendary. The fourth movement starts with the English patriotic song Rule Britannia, after which the Dutch Admiral Michiel de Ruyter makes the English change their tune; one can even hear the roaring of cannons. When the smoke of battle has cleared, a small fragment of a Dutch song about Michiel de Ruyter appears, followed by a fitting closing. The Golden Age is een programmatische compositie in vier delen. Overtureverklankt de Gouden Eeuw, voor Nederland een periode van grote bloei. Dan volgt ¡Adiós españoles! over het einde van de Tachtigjarige Oorlog.Rembrandt’s Night Watch beschrijft de ontwikkeling op cultureel gebied: in de Gouden Eeuw schilderde Rembrandt van Rijn zijn beroemde Nachtwacht. Deel vier, The Admiral, begint met Rule Britannia,waarna de Nederlandse admiraal Michiel de Ruyter de Engelsen een toontje lager laat zingen, er is zelfs kanongebulder te horen. Dan klinkt een fragment van het Nederlandse liedje dat aan Michiel de Ruyter is gewijd, waarna een passendslot volgt.The Golden Age ist eine programmatische Komposition in vier Sätzen über das so genannte “Goldene Zeitalter“ in der Geschichte der Niederlande. In dieser Periode erlebte das Land eine Blütezeit des (Übersee-)Handels, der Kultur und Politik, es befreite sich von der spanischen Herrschaft, brachte Kunstwerke wie Rembrandt’s Nachtwache hervor und entwickelte sich zu einer Kolonialmacht. Die Aufmerksamkeit der Zuhörer ist bei Kees Schoonenbeeks spannender musikalischer Geschichtsstunde garantiert!Après une guerre qui dura 80 ans, l'Espagne reconnut finalement l'indépendance des Provinces-Unies néerlandaises, qui devinrent alors l’une des plus importantes puissances maritimes et économiques du XVIIe siècle. Cette période est connue sous le nom de Siècle d’or (The Golden Age) et correspond une phase de développement exceptionnel des Pays-Bas tant sur le plan colonial et militaire que sur le plan culturel, intellectuel et artistique. Dopo una guerra che durò 80 anni, la Spagna riconobbe l’indipendenza delle Province-Unite olandesi che divennero potenze marittime ed economiche del XVII secolo. Questo periodo è conosciuto con il nome di Secolo d’Oro (The Golden Age) e corrisponde ad una fase di sviluppo eccezionale dei Paesi Bassi sia sul piano coloniale e militare, sia sul piano culturale, intellettuale e artistico.

Opus III is proud to announce that we are now the exclusive distributor for North America and Asia of Concertango, by Luis Serrano Alarcón. A 25 minute work exploring musical fusion on multiple levels through the contrast of symphonic winds to a jazz trio (piano, bass, drums). Both groups are independent at times followed by a merge into a single unique musical force. The alto saxophone soloist stands as the uniting musical element between the two groups. The omnipresent and uniting musical force is the tango and, in particular, the works of Astor Piazzolla. Luis Serrano Alarcón has transformed the rhythms, ensemble settings and stylistic idioms into a powerful artisticstatement that communicates to all. A highly effective work for mature ensembles.

Pulcinella was commissioned by the Taiwanese euphonium player Tzu-Hsiang Lin. Lin is a renowned soloist and teacher and a Besson Euphonium Artist. He teaches euphonium at Taipei National University of the Arts, National Taiwan University of Arts, Shih Chien University and National Kaohsiung Normal University. Pulcinella continues SparkeÂ’s series of euphonium solos named after characters of the Italian commedia dellÂ’arte and opens with a long and expressive minor melody for the soloist over a brooding accompaniment. This is taken up briefly by the piano and is extended by the soloist after a change of key. A cadenza, accompanied by fragments of the main melody leads to a complete change of mood, tempo and tonality, introducing a Vivo section starting with a perky syncopated tune for the soloist. The piano then uses elements of this new tune to introduce a change of key, where the soloist introduces a more lyrical second subject over a pulsing accompaniment. The piano then takes this up and changes key to reintroduce the original Vivo melody, which leads to a short and acrobatic coda to bring the work to a spectacular close.

Deze twee Duitse dansen komen uit een serie van twaalf menuetten, tevens Duitse dansen, die Ludwig van Beethoven in 1795 schreef. Dit was in zijn ‘Weense tijd’, ter gelegenheid van het gerenommeerde ‘Ball der Gesellschaft der bildendenKünstler’. Dit bal was een belangrijke maatschappelijke gebeurtenis dat ieder jaar in Wenen plaatsvond. Hij legde hiermee een belangrijke basis voor de ontwikkeling en populariteit van de Weense wals. Van twee dansen uit dezeserie creëerde Philip Sparke een ‘dansend’ werk voor blaasorkest.Diese zwei deutschen Tänze“ stammen aus einer Reihe von 12 Menuetten sowie 12 deutschen Tänzen, die Ludwig van Beethoven 1795 - in seiner Wiener Zeit - für den renommierten Ball der Gesellschaft der bildenden Künstler“ schrieb. Dieser Ball war ein wichtiges gesellschaftliches Ereignis, das jährlich in Wien stattfand. Mit seinen Tänzen legte Beethoven einen wichtigen Grundstein zur Entwicklung und Popularität des Wiener Walzers. Ludwig van Beethoven quitte Bonn, sa ville natale, l’automne 1792, pour tenter sa chance dans la Vienne impériale. Il a vingt-deux ans. En plus des cours avec Haydn, il travaille avec Albrechtsberger et Salieri, et réussit se forger une solide réputation de pianiste virtuose.Le bal annuel, organisé par la Caisse des pensions des artistes des Beaux-Arts de Vienne, était alors un événement très prisé de la haute société viennoise. cette occasion, les grands compositeurs de l’époque comme Haydn, Kozeluch, Dittersdorf ou Eybler, étaient sollicités pour écrire de nouvelles musiques de danse. En 1795, Ludwig van Beethoven composa une série de Douze menuets et Douzeallemandes, une danse villageoise, en vogue en Bavière et en Autriche, et qui donnera naissance la célèbre valse viennoise, la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Originellement pour orchestre, Beethoven en réalisa une réduction pour piano, également plébiscitée par le public. Philip Sparke a choisi d’arranger deux danses de cette série en prenant le soin de conserver le caractère coloré et rustique des pièces originales.
