Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Après que les premières esquisses en eurent été jetées sur le papier dès 1815, il fallut attendre jusqu’en 1824 pour parvenir à la conclusion de la dernière symphonie achevée de Beethoven. Avec son Finale étendu, dans lequel interviennent solistes et chœur avec leur appel à la fraternité, pour former un pont avec la cantate symphonique, elle présente une rupture dont l’effet se fit fortement sentir dans l’histoire de la symphonie tout au long du XIXe siècle. Le thème principal de l’Ode «An die Freude» («À la joie») de Friedrich Schiller est devenu l’une des mélodies les plus populaires de toute la musique classique et constitue aujourd’hui l’Hymne européen. Basée sur le texte musical de l’édition complète des œuvres de Beethoven et accompagnée d’une nouvelle préface, cette toute récente édition fait état du stade actuel de la recherche beethovénienne. Avec cette édition d’étude, ce texte est maintenant accessible à tous à peu de frais et dans un format maniable. / Date parution : 2020-07-04/ Répertoire / Orchestre Symphonique

Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. Volume 9 of the new Urtext edition of Schubert's lieder contains lieder composed during the spring and summer of 1816, some of which follow upon series started in 1815. They are available in separate books for high, medium and low voice. The volume was completed by the eminent Schubert scholar Walter Dürr who passed away at the beginning of 2018. It was in 1816 that Schubert completed his settings of Ossian's songs and added lieder on texts by Johann Georg Jacobi, Johann Peter Uz and Matthias Claudius. Also included are the lieder from the Grob family songbook. In summer 1816 Schubert produced his first settings of poems by Christian Friedrich Daniel Schubart ('Grablied auf einen Soldaten” and 'An mein Klavier”), the author of the words to one of his most famous songs 'Die Forelle”/ 'The Trout” (see Volume 2)./ Répertoire / Basse et Piano

As a continuation of the new Urtext edition of the Schubert lieder, Walther Dürr has now edited volume five for high, medium and low voices. Volumes 1 to 4 of this edition contain mainly lieder which Schubert himself saw into print (in his own choice and order) and in the fourth volume works from the last two years of his life are included. The lieder in volume 5 onwards are strictly presented in the order of Deutsch's Thematic Catalogue which means that in principle they are arranged chronologically. The lieder in volume five were composed in the years 1811 to 1814. The first - 'Hagars Klage' (D 5), dated 30 March 1811 - is also his first complete surviving song. The first eleven lieder are evidence of his early studies (1811-1813/14). During this period Schubert immersed himself in Johann Rudolf Zumsteeg's ballads and lieder and wrote Italian arias during his composition lessons with Antonio Salieri. He also composed a single strophic song ('Klaglied', D 23), which - the only one of these songs - was published shortly after his death in November 1830 as op. 131, 3. His apprentice work, as it were, was the major ballade 'Der Taucher' (D 77) which was composed between 1813 and roughly the beginning of 1815. Probably not by chance, his first complete opera ('Des Teufels Lustschloss', D 84) was written at the same time. He also set fourteen poems by Friedrich von Matthisson exploring the principle of the strophic lied. - Excellent new engraving based on the 'New Schubert Edition'- Foreword by Walther Dürr discussing the history the works' composition and transmission, together with a list of sources for each song (Ger/Eng)- English translation of the song texts by Richard WigmoreContents:Hagars Klage, D 5 / Leichenfantasie, D 7 /Der Vatermörder, D 10 / Klaglied, op. post. 131, 3 - D 23 / Misero pargoletto, D 42 (high voice only) / Totengräberlied, D 44 / Die Schatten, D 50 / Verklärung, D 59 / Pensa che questo istante, D 76 (medium and low voice only) /Der Taucher, D 77 / Son fra l'onde, D 78 (high voice only) /Adelaide, D 95 / Trost.

Music from the last movement of the Ninth Symphony. Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. The European Hymn is the hymn not only of the European Union but of Europe in a broader sense. The melody has been taken from the Ninth Symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1823. In the last movement of this symphony Beethoven set music to the 'Ode to Joy' by Friedrich von Schiller from 1785. This poem sprang from Schiller's idealistic vision of men who become brothers – a vision Beethoven shared with him. In 1972 the Council of Europe adopted Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' as its anthem. The well-known conductor Herbert von Karajan was commissioned to arrange three instrumental versions – for solo piano, wind orchestra and symphony orchestra. Without words, in the universal language of music, the anthem is an expression of the idealistic values of freedom, peace and solidarity which Europe stands for. In 1985 the heads of state and government adopted the hymn as the EU's official anthem. It does not replace the national anthems of the member states, but rather celebrates common values as well as unity in diversity. The score of this offical anthem is exclusively available from the Schott publishing house./ Répertoire / Orchestre

Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. Brahms? elegy Nänie op. 82, based on the poem by Friedrich von Schiller, was composed in 1880/81 following the death of the painter Anselm Feuerbach, whom Brahms greatly admired. In contrast with the poem, Brahms? Nänie ends full of hope: after earthly decline, beauty can live on in art. As in his Deutsches Requiem op. 45, in Nänie Brahms creates a musical connection between mourning and consolation in an incomparable way. Inspired by the model of classical Roman-Greek laments, the work adopts the classical verse form chosen by Schiller ? surely alluding to Feuerbach?s classically-inspired art.Scored for mixed chorus and orchestra, we are publishing the work in a modern Urtext edition. One or more harps can be used ad lib. The primary source is the first printed edition of 1881. The latest scholarly discoveries as well as practical requirements have been taken into consideration. Performance material is available on sale as well as a vocal score, based on Brahms?s original vocal score, but in a revised performing version. / Date parution : 2023-06-02/ Répertoire / Choeur Mixte SATB et Piano

Tiefe Stimme / Low Voice. Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. Continuing the new Urtext edition of Schubert’s Lieder, editor Walther Dürr now presents Volume 6, for Low Voice. While volumes 1 to 4 of this series contain mostly Lieder that Schubert had published during his lifetime, volume 5ff. contain the remaining songs which are presented basically chronologically in the order of their Deutsch catalogue number. The Lieder in this sixth volume were composed during the period between autumn 1814 and spring 1815. With “Nachtgesang” (D 119) and “Trost in Tränen” (D120) Schubert turns to the“Strophenlied” in its stricter sense for the first time. He develops an interest in this form parallel to his first involvement with Geothe. Schubert, during this period an assistant teacher at his father’s school, orientated himself towards the so-called “Berliner Liederschule”, particularly the songs of Johann Friedrich Reichardt. By the beginning of the year 1815 he drew his inspiration mainly from the texts of Theodor Körner; however he regularly still produced settings for the poetry of Goethe and Schiller. - Based on the Urtext of the “New Schubert Edition” - Newly engraved, clearly presented musical layout - Foreword by Walther Dürr on the history and genesis of the work as well as an explanation of the sources for each individual lied (Eng/Ger) - Includes English translations of lieder texts by Richard Wigmore/ Répertoire / Vocal et Piano

Arrangements of familiar pieces for two flutes were very popular in the romantic era. This enabled works which were current at that time to be played in salons and at home. Folk songs, opera arias, piano and concert pieces were arranged by such figures as Giuseppe Gariboldi, Kaspar Kummer and Ernesto Köhler. Elisabeth Weinzierl and Edmund Wächter have selected and arranged the most beautiful and best-known pieces for this edition making these melodies accessible even to the less experienced musician. / 2 Flûtes Traversières
