Third Part Of The Orchestral Triptych Triduum-Symphony: ‘Vigil’ (19...(+)
Third Part Of The Orchestral Triptych Triduum-Symphony: ‘Vigil’ (1997) is the last of three interrelated works forming Triduum commissioned by the London Symphony Orchestra the other works being The World’s Ransoming for cor anglais and orchestra and the Cello Concerto (both 1996). All three relate to the historical events and religious liturgies of the Easter Triduum namely Maundy Thursday Good Friday and the Easter Vigil. The symphony’s first movement ‘Light’ deals with the promise of a glimmer of light in the darkness. The central movement ‘Tuba insonet salutaris’ (Sound the trumpet of salvation) is based on the Exsultet melody sung at the Easter Vigil described by Mozart as probably the mostbeautiful ever written. The final movement ‘Water’ opens savagely but subsides towards the presentation of two conflicting principal materials a wild ecstatic dance followed by a slower more mysterious texture leading to a climax and a luminous floating close.

Fantasia In C Minor Op.80 (Choral Fantasy)-This volume contains two of Beethoven's most unusual highly innovative and original works: the Concerto in C Major Op. 56 for piano violin cello and orchestra; and the Fantasia in C Minor Op. 80 for piano chorus and orchestra.To this day the 'Triple Concerto' remains part of a rare breed in the literature--a fascinating symphonic framework of interaction between the classical orchestra and a trio of intimately interdependent soloists. The work remains a favorite vehicle of the great Beethoven specialists with numerous recordings by legendary performers.The 'Choral Fantasy' is a rarity in the Beethoven canon of ensemble music uniting thevirtuoso display of a semi-improvisational solo piano with the vocal and instrumental richness of chorus and orchestra. Said to have been composed under great time pressure the Fantasy concludes with an extensive choral setting of a text by an unknown poet: 'Schmeichelnd hold und lieblich klingen' ('Flatteringly lovely and fair are the sounds of our life?s harmonies...Accept gladly the gifts of beautiful art...').Reprinted from the authoritative Breitkopf & Härtel editions this volume offers musicians and music lovers an inexpensive high-quality full score of two exceptional works.

New York is the city which fascinates and inspires Ruders. Time and again he goes back there to work. 'Manhattan Abstraction' (1982) subtitles - a symphonic skyline for large orchestra - was conceived there. Ruders’ Brittish colleague Oliver Knussen defines the piece as: - a performance of an extraordinary Morden-Times-like construction. It is a sort of symphonic sculpture which in the composer’s own words words propels forth from one particular inspiration: the New York profile as seen from Liberty Island one icy cold January day with it’s open clear sky and dazzling sun light. 'Manhatten Abstraction' appears as an amalgam of some of the compositorical habits foundin present pieces. For instance are present here compositorical ideas and melodic loans from 'Capriccio Pian’e Forte' 2nd String Quartet(1979) 'Four Compositions' (1980) and 2nd Piano Sonata(1982). The question at hand is mainly concerned with the enhanced elaboration of Ruders’ use of the classic English change-ringing system: a permuting method pre-determining the order of tone-appearances and /or tone groups; a serial technique in other words. In spite of the rigidly fixed material Ruders somehow manages to chisel out a personal expression by way of emphasising contrasting elements already existing within the material itself. The spiky repetitive sections form a counterpart to a more human violin-solo. This dialectical tension is - as hinted by the title - a symphonic abstraction of a fascinating metropolis; the most beautiful and the ugliest. The subtitle: a symphonic skyline reflects the musical erection of the Manhattan profile which under the clear sky materializes into the most powerful and compelling man-made sculpture on earth. Thus 'Manhattan Abstraction' is a homage to as well as a vision of this giant contraption of concrete glass and chrome.

Jeg har ogsÃ¥ i dette stykke forsøgt at introducere stærke følelsesmæssige udtryk ved brug af instrumentale farver og tonale virkemidler. Titlen Hush er forbundet med et slags â€indre digt†jeg har haft i tankerne medens jeg komponerede. Da jeg jo ikke er digter i ord er det ufuldstændigt og utilstrækkeligt i sin form men derfor alligevel meget godt beskrivende for stykkets væsen. Det lyder nogenlunde sÃ¥dan her i mit hoved:Hush little heart- hush.!!was time running too fast or did the hours sometimesseem long? Were your beats too many or were they too few in the end?Hush little heart- hushdid you see too little or did you sometimes see too much? was life too small or was it sometimes larger than life?was your thirst quenched or did you end up drained?hush hush little heart- hush!! Don't be afraid maybe you knew all the time:that one day you would have to be still-or maybe you didn't?Is that why you were beating so fast?hush hush little heart-hush - be comforted 'cause even as you feel so small Your very existence is strange and beautiful - so hush hush be comforted be still my beating heart.
