Op. 38. Par ELGAR EDWARD. This is the best of me, wrote Edward Elgar after the final measure of his Dream of Gerontius. Premiered in 1900, in Great Britain the work has long been a standard work in the repertoire of large oratorio choirs. Elgar?s moving, poetic setting of the eponymous poem by Cardinal John Henry Newman is about a dying man and his journey beyond death to God. Before the eyes of the listeners, a musical image of the soul is created which flies past mocking demons to God with its protecting angel at its side, is allowed to look at him briefly, then faces the purgatorial fire of salvation confident and comforted. The work is a real rarity in the history of oratorio, and for large choirs it is a thrilling alternative to the established repertoire of Requiem settings. Its popularity is thanks to the suggestive, often sensuous power of the music, the great choral scenes of the demons and the Angel, and the three impressive solo parts. All previous editions were reprints based on the historic first printed materials, which are inconsistent. By contrast, Carus has produced a modern, newly-engraved edition, compatible in all sections, which takes all the sources into consideration and evaluates the autograph manuscript in detail. For this edition the complete orchestral material is available on sale, and the vocal score and full score contain both English and German singing texts. The full score is also available digitally. / Date parution : 2022-05-31/ Répertoire / Solistes, Ch?ur SATB et Orchestre

Edward Fairlie's Storm and Urge is a significant work for wind band and portrays a journey of emotional turbulence. The title comes from the German 'Sturm und Drang,? a literary and musical movement of the late 1700s which focused on extremes of emotion. Opening with a simple and reflective theme, we are then taken through a range of emotional settings from uncertainty to resistance, and then calm resolve and self-knowledge. With a variety of textures and vivid imagery, this is a masterful work for the contemporary ensemble. / Ensemble A Vent Partition

Edward Elgar's Salut d'amour is one of those pieces by the British composer that has a particularly haunting melody. The short work also had a special significance for the composer. Caroline Alice Roberts had been having piano lessons with Elgar since 1886. Their teacher-pupil relationship soon blossomed into love and they became engaged in 1888. It was in this year that Elgar composed 'Salut d'amour? for his bride, initially with the German title 'Liebesgruß?. They got married in 1889 and the work was published at the same time. We are now publishing this moderately difficult, immortal classic in the original versions for Violin and Piano, Violoncello and Piano (HN 1189) and Piano solo (HN 1190). / Violon Et Piano

Christmas fiddlers can draw on a rich and varied repertoire. This collection spans seven centuries, from the boisterous medieval Song of the Ass to contemporary tunes like Sleigh ride, taking in such traditional carols as Away in a manger and O little town of Bethlehem along the way. There is music in The Christmas Fiddler from England, Wales, France, Germany and North America.Of course Christmas time is not only a religious festival. Much of the music here - the Welsh carol Deck the hall, the 'fireside' movement from The Four Seaons, the modern classic Chestnuts roasting on an open fire - is as much a celebration of the ancient secular festival of the Winter Solstice.The arrangements in this collection can be performed as solos or duets, or by larger ensembles. The keyboard accompaniments are there for a multitude of purposes, from concert performances to playing at home- and the violin accompaniments will be invaluable for those Christmas busking sessions.The full range of traditional fiddle repertoire is now at your fingertips! Using these generous collections, you can create your own ceilidh, barn dance, jazz club, Sarajevo street-café or Gypsy gathering. Some of this music is familiar, some more exotic, but all of it is absolutely authentic, faithfully arranged and, above all, hugely enjoyable. Each title in the series is available in two formats: the violin edition (with an optional easy violin part and guitar chord)- or the complete edition, which also includes both keyboard and violin accompaniments. Either format is hugely flexible, which means the music can be played as solos, duets or trios as well as with larger ensembles. Edward Huws Jones has travelled extensively researching fiddle-playing traditions. In each book he explains the background of the particular musical style, giving his own suggestions for a lively performance. And to help recreate the spirit of the music, every book in the series is beautifully illustrated. / Violon Et Guitare

Creation 04/11/2018 - Cologne (Germany), Philharmonie - Anaïs Gaudemard (harp) Sponsor Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Philharmonie de Paris Dedication to Anaïs Gaudemard Notice Nighthawks is a work for solo harp. When Anaïs Gaudemard [1] asked me to write this work, she wanted to integrate it into a program on the theme of birds. I immediately thought of the work Nighthawks (1942) - or Night Birds - by the American realist painter Edward Hopper (1882-1967). Inspired by this work, I designed the piece in one piece as a trip to the heart of this painting. Hopper projects there a snapshot of American daily life. The scene takes place at a late hour of the night and several atmospheres emerge from it. Indeed, the eye is at the same time attracted by this dark, deserted, and immaculate street of an American downtown; intrigued by the frozen situation of the four characters inside a brightly colored diner; and hypnotized by the glare of the huge bar window. Contrasting with the darkness of the street, the light from this neon-lit window is striking. It thus separates the two atmospheres of the painting. The view of the spectator through it is from outside to inside the bar. The absence of an exit door gives the impression that the characters are isolated and their solitude is further reinforced by this glass which surrounds the illuminated stage - as if they were under a bell . Inside the diner, a man seen from behind is eating; a couple stand side by side (the man smokes; the woman is dressed in red); a server is busy. We don't know anything about them. What are they doing at such a late hour? Where is the exit? What are they discussing? Do they know each other? I wanted to musically conceive this scene from the viewer's point of view, as if we were caught up, sucked into the very interior of the painting. The introduction - Mysterious, dark - sounds the twelve strokes of midnight and plunges us into the darkness of this typically American street. From this nocturnal atmosphere is born a strange song - almost padded with xylophonic sounds - as if we could not hear it distinctly through the luminous glass which separates the street and the bar. Caught up in this bright light, we pass through the window and gradually return inside the diner by means of a hypnotic loop repeated tirelessly, as if we were entering a state of trance - Hypnotic. It is the underlying tension of this frozen situation of the characters that I wanted to represent in the central passage - Rhythmic and pulsed. Then, we come out of this feeling of hypnosis by passing through the bar window again and rediscover the nocturnal atmosphere of this deserted and immaculate street - Hypnotic - Mysterious. Camille Pepin [1] Creator and dedicatee of the piece Hurry What a simply beautiful work here! Camille Pépin, born in 1990, had a career marked by dance and composition. But we discover here quite simply an artist, who invites us to the contemplation of a work of the painter Edward Hopper. Having worked on composition and orchestration with Thierry Perrine as well as with Thierry Escaich, Guillaume Connesson and Marc-André Dalbavie, she has forged an original language which allows her here to bewitch us both by her music and by contemplation of the painting. We can judge by the interpretation of this piece on YouTube that we will listen to while looking at the painting. Of course, you can also listen to the work as it is: it is sufficient. But with the painting ... Daniel blackstone Music Education n ° 128 (Jan-Feb 2020)
