Commissioned by the Los Angeles Philharmonic for Gustavo Dudamel, Hartke's fourth symphony is a strikingly-powerful and emotionally-charged work. The solo organ part was written for and actually sketched out on the one-of-a-kind grand concert organ at Walt Disney Hall. Though it was originally conceived as a twenty-minute piece without vocals, Hartke surreptitiously came across the gorgeous translation of Lorca's poem, The Sleepwalking Ballad by late Irish Poet Michael Hartnett and masterfully set the text into a climactic finale with solo Soprano as composer Gustav Mahler had famously done in his own fourth symphony.

This beautiful tenor sax feature was originally written for the Jaco Pastorius Word Of Mouth Band, then recorded in 1986 by the Mintzer Big Band on Camouflage (DMP). Playable by proficient groups, it is set in a ballad feel, but includes a double-time section for the band and soloist. Mintzer says that this music is all about the feel and that execution of the actual notes is not too difficult. Rhythm section parts are partially notated with chords cued. Duration 5:20.

Written in the composer's characteristic expressive ballad style, this sacred cradle song is a precious portrait of the newborn Savior. Juxtaposing the manger scene with the holy child's future ministry among us permeates the song with meaning and a deep sense of awe. The chorus is a moment of worship that will bring power to the singing, making this music more than a performance. Inspiring poetry plus thoughtful music equals a truly memorable devotional anthem. Score and Parts (vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.

Bennington, VT composer Frederic Sharaf had written many solos for Mezzo-soprano with his wife Jane in mind. Our recently released Three Settings from Imitations by Robert Lowell (CF.V2498) was premiered by Jane in a competition in 1971, which allowed her to undertake a summer study program at Yale. After a lifetime in music and education, Jane Sharaf passed away in August, 2007. Frederic continues to compose, in part as catharsis, with a string of love ballads for Mezzo-soprano and piano, among his other works. Many of these ballads, including The Anniversary (above) and the Three Settings, were recently released on CD by Kara Cornell and Michael Clement. The duo also performed these works in Albany, in a concert entitled Gems of the Region: Music by Local American Composers. We are pleased to make available three more representative works by Frederic Sharaf for piano solo.

Harri Wessman's Pan and the Nymph Pitys (1979) for flute and guitar bears the first symptoms of his later style, the texture being softly dissonant. In an old mythological dictionary the composer found that Pan had had some love affair with an other nymph than famous Syrinx as well, with Pitys (greek pine-tree). So the listener may think of Pan in the vital A-sections and imagine the nymph in the languishing B-section and coda of the ABA form.Towards the Night (1978) for flute and guitar belongs to Wessman's previous world of tonal entertainment music. It is a melodious ballad, characterized by a short-long rhythm, a lot of seventh and altered chords and a passage, where the guitar takes the leed and plays the melody in tremolo.This product includes a playing score (folder, B4 sized).

Jacques Offenbach's more than 100 stage works are an endless treasure trove of vocal highlights with highly different musical moods and lyrical themes. To mark the 200th birthday of the great composer in 2019, which is at the same time the year of the 20th anniversary of the Offenbach Edition Keck OEK, the editor and Offenbach expert Jean-Christophe Keck has assembled a selection of arias. The four-part collection arranged according to voice category shows a rather unknown, romantic side of Offenbach. Apart from rediscovered works and first editions, however, the collection is not complete without some of his unrivalled hits. Apart from trouvailles from Les Bavards, Maitre Peronilla and Robinson Crusoe, the volume for mezzo-soprano also contains some of those crowd-pullers the composer wrote for his most famous star, the singer Hortense Schneider. But Perichole, the Beautiful Helen or the Grand Duchess of Gerolstein show definitely not only their burlesque side, but also their thoughtful one here. And in Fantasio's bitter-sweet Ballad to the Moon, Offenbach paints his own portrait as a melancholic in a jester's costume. Romantic Offenbach is aimed at fully trained and budding professionals as well as at Offenbach fans of every shade and colour, providing repertoire pieces for recitals, studies or private music-making.
