for String Quartet op. 35a. Par SUK JOSEF. Josef Suk played second violin in the Bohemian String Quartet. Since 1914 the ensemble was obliged to perform the Austrian national anthem at the opening of every concert. Suk decided to supplement this obligatory piece with a work inspired by the ancient sacred Bohemian 'St. Wenceslas” hymn. The hymn's message - a plea for the well-being of the Czech people, directed at their patron saint - was immediately understood by the audience. The Bohemian String Quartet performed this single-movement Meditation for the first time on 27 September 1914 - the premiere of the version for string orchestra followed on 22 November 1914, played by the Czech Philharmonic. That same year the piece was published by Fr. A. Urbánek together with arrangements for piano and organ. This first Urtext edition, prepared by the Suk scholar Zdenek Nouza, is published in two scorings, one for string quartet (BA 9583 - study score TP 583) and another for string orchestra (BA 9584). The orchestral version differs in some details and has an added part for double bass. - First Urtext edition/ Répertoire / Quatuor à Cordes

Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. DOWANI 3 Tempi Play Along is an effective and time-tested method of practicing that offers more than conventional play-long editions. DOWANI 3 Tempi Play Along enables you to learn a work systematically and with accompaniment at different tempi. The first thing you hear on the CD is the concert version in a first-class recording with solo instrument and orchestral, continuo, or piano accompaniment. Then the piano or harpsichord accompaniment follows in slow and medium tempo for practice purposes, with the solo instrument heard softly in the background at slow tempo. Finally, you can play at the original tempo to the accompaniment of an orchestra, piano, or basso continuo. Allversions appearing on the CD were recorded live by renowned soloists, accompanists, and orchestras. There are no synthesised sounds in a DOWANI edition! / Niveau : Avancé / Accessoire / Violon

Par RHEINBERGER JOSEF GABRIEL. Rheinberger's concert overtures are completely beholden to the tradition of the genre established at least since the 1820s. The spread of this genre was favored in equal measure by the growth of bourgeois musical culture and the overwhelming model of Beethoven's nine symphonies, which sowed a certain perplexity and discouragement among composers of the next generation and led them to turn increasingly to the smaller single-movement genre in their orchestral music. Soon a generic distinction arose between two types of overture. One was the autonomous overture, whose character results from its specific introductory function. Rheinberger's Academic Overture follows in thissame line of tradition. The other type was the overture with subject-matter, in which the romantic inclination to recreate extra-musical material in music found an expecially fruitful field of exploration. Having originated as the opening item of an opera or play, the overture had, after all, long been accustomed to accommodating the contents of the work that followed. The concert overture on an extra-musical subject is in turn associated in particular with the works of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. Rheinberger too, closely modeled his opp. 11 and 110 on Mendelssohn's overtures./ Répertoire / Orchestre

Zum Nahmensfest des Bonapart produciret. Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. For the first time this work ascribed earlier to Joseph Haydn will be edited here under the name of his brother, Johann Michael Haydn, and based on the most reliable source from 1765 from the Benedictine monastery Göttwieg. There, in the course of a century the work was heard forty times for opening of the solemn High Mass, as also in 1809 on the name day of Emperor Napoleon, who spent a short time at the monastery following the battle of Aspern and Eßling. According to late baroque custom, the scoring consists of a soprano, alto, tenor, bass [each soli and tutti], two violins, two trumpets with timpani [ad libitum, corresponding to the purpose of the particular performance] and basso continuo. / Date parution : 2019-12-12/ Répertoire / Chant et Piano
