Dedicated to Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz, String Quartet No. 1 in F Major, Op. 18, No. 1 was finished on June 25, 1799 with some revisions thereafter. Beethoven initially felt it to be a work in progress and commented that he had not yet learned to write quartets properly. Despite his perfectionism, only minor changes were made after the premier performance. The opening of this Allegro finale pays homage to Mozart with its wild swirls in the solo voices followed by a response of the whole ensemble. As the movement develops, the ensemble plays what we later discover as Beethoven's true voice. Like the first movement, the last movement affords the ensemble dramatic dynamic changes and driving motor devices. The virtuosity required of the players makes this the most challenging of any of the movements in the quartet.

The Little Negro was originally composed by Claude Debussy (1862-1918) for piano in 1909. The purpose was to write a great work that could also played by children. Eugène Bozza made the piece even more accessible in 1984 by arranging it for wind quintet. The Little Negro is marked Allegro and begins with a theme modelled on ragtime music, a style which was very popular at the time of composition. Jazz influences, the C major key signature, 2/4 meter and upbeat features make for an exciting and accessible piece for all the ensemble. Bozza's arrangement of Debussy's The Little Negro for a wind quintet made up of flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon and horn is a thrilling addition to the repertoire.

Cellist and composer David Popper published the CELLO CONCERTO No. 5 in C major, Hob. VIIb:5, in 1899 as a completion of stetches supposedly made by Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809). Due to more recent scholarship, the work is now believed to have been written by Popper himself. A blend of technical exploration and melodic charm, the concerto has become a familiar staple of the cello repertoire. It consists of three movements: 1. Allegro moderato, 2. Andante, and 3. Allegretto vivace. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 2.0.0.0: Str (4-4-3-3-3 in set): Solo Cello.

Textures is a rhythmic and driving composition from composer Bill Calhoun. It contains shifting meters and ostinato bass lines underneath jaunty melodic material. There is a respite from the angular textures during a luscious, slow, lyrical section that features a beautiful violin solo. The pointed textures return for a dramatic finish.Textures is an original composition for string orchestra set in B minor . In its introduction, which alternates between 4/4 and 6/8, the piece begins with an ostinato bass rhythm that sets the time for the other voices to add, creating an interesting texture . Continuing in its bright tempo, the main theme is introduced in 5/4, which eventually becomes the unifying feel of this section . This rhythmic motif trades back and forth between the violins, violas and cellos before moving into a full chorus finishing in 5/4 . There is a brief return to a tutti treatment of the introductory 4/4 to 6/8 material as it moves into a melodic 3/4 middle section . A solo violin begins this dance-like theme . After a short ritardando and closing fermata, this section moves into a return to the opening Allegro, though slightly quicker . First is the return to its A-theme, then using the introductory material to transition into its dynamic ending .

Though the work bearing this title is a portrait of childhood, it is a childhood quite different from the purely gameplaying and dreamlike childhood that is customarily represented. The childhood described here is carrying the seed, in all its purity, of all positive and negative qualities to be found the fully-grown men: a childhood both angelic and diabolical, and indeed very close to Henry James' The Turn of the Screw which was the direct inspiration for this monodrama.Its growth follows the innumerable sudden changes, turns and contrasts of the unsophisticated spirit. There is hardly any development at all, as each idea gives birth to the next or rejects the previons one, being object to every impulse, every tempest, every flux, every fear and delight. After a dreamlike introduction, in which two simple melodies stand out, comes a sudden awakening, Allegro, stamped all over with lavish and forever regenerating dynamism. A sudden halt leads a kind of outburst from the most simple folklore is singing, in regular, repeated notes. Again the question mark leads us to another melody, Tranquillo, of a sweet tempo, but brilliantly decorated with counter-point, its cursive traits leading this time to a kind of roguish march (Vigoroso).Yet soon there emerges a melancholic chant, Largo, in the Cromorne's timbre, and then, in the highest register of the Trumpet there reappears like a metamorphosed memory, the theme of the second movement. Passing other episodes, we come to Tempo giusto, insistent and glorious, interrupted by other passionate figures, cut off by unsettling silent moments and taken up again in always accelerating volleys.

The title makes refference to the Corpus Christi in Sevilla, which is the last topic in the first book of the Iberia Suite by Albeniz. Some measures from this work are quoted textually close to the end, and other fragments are paraphrased in a different context. For this reason, the score must be performed as an independent work or inmediately after Albeniz's piece, but never before! If the work is played together with the work of the Iberia Suite, the meter of the Allegro must be the same that the one in Albeniz's work. It happens the same with the quoted measures in the Coda. The score only can be played with a piano provided with a 3rd pedal, because the first section is based on the resonances that the pedal produces.

The opening (and closing) sections are energetic and rhythmic with some syncopation, while the center section is a little slower and more expressive with lyrical melodies and flowing lines.

Georg Goltermann (1824-1898) left a plethora of works for his instrument, including seven cello concertos which still play an important role in the cello literature of today. In addition, he composed a large number of character pieces, including romances, reveries, nocturnes and serenades. Rooted entirely in the romantic spirit of their time with regard to style, they are relatively short pieces of medium difficulty. It is not least due to its melodic and harmonic catchiness that the rather easy Reverie in G minor Op. 92/2 enjoys great popularity both in lessons and in concerts. The expression marking 'Allegro appassionato' refers to the fundamental character of the piece which demands, in particular, an expressive vibrato rich in modulation.
