for voice and string quartet. Par HUMMEL BERTOLD. Bertold Hummel schrieb das vorliegende Ave Maria für seinen Sohn Martin, der dieses Stück auch in Begleitung des familiären Streichquartetts musizierte, wovon eine noch erhaltene Bratschenstimme zeugt. Die zweiteilige Komposition verbindet eine terzverwandt angelegte Dur-Moll-Tonalität mit modaler Harmonik. Prägendes Element der Begleitung ist eine absteigende, phrygische Tonleiter, die im Verlauf des Stückes die Richtung wechselt und auch Transformationen ins Dorische bzw. ins Moll erfährt. Der zweite Teil („Sancta Maria...“) greift die Musik des Anfangs wieder auf und führt zu neuen Kombinationen des musikalischen Materials.

20 Easy to Intermediate Pieces from four Centuries. Par NEUMANN EVA-MARIA (Arr.). Making music in a quartet uniquely nurtures young string players’ musical development, ensemble playing, listening to each other, and intonation. So, what could be more obvious than introducing the scoring of this genre, often referred to as chamber music’s supreme discipline, as early as possible. Indeed, composers have all along advised the classical string quartet’s outstanding compositions, but they are hardly easy to play for beginners. Here, with the present collection, is where Eva-Maria Neumann comes in. The two volumes include A total of 20 easy to intermediate arrangements of pieces from Bach to Bartók, together with specifically composed ones in string-quartet friendly keys - Reading scores and individual parts - additionally, individual part for violin III instead of viola - Tips on warming up, intonation, bowing, fingering, tempos, dynamics, and playing musically - Specific instructions for the individual pieces - Lists of supplementary original literature The pieces are also effective as scored for chorus./ Recueil / Quatuor à Cordes

The latest volume of Chamber Music for Violoncellos contains four sacral works, two of which were arranged for cello quartet by the editor of the series, Árpád Pejtsik. Both Angelus!, Liszt's piano piece of ethereal beauty, and the Kyrie of Mozart's Requiem, an irresistibly surging four-part fugue, are magnificent when played with the immensely rich sound of the four cellos. The second part of the volume contains a pair of inspired works by two prominent cellists and composers of the 19th century: Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Fitzenhagen's Consecration Hymn and Friedrich Grützmacher's Ave Maria. While an instrumental skill of at least intermediate level is required for playing the upper parts due to the use of higher positions, the lower parts can be performed by beginner cellists. The editor has assisted the appropriate interpretation of the works by providing the fingering and bowing. / 4 Violoncelles
