By the age of forty, Finnish composer Magnus Lindberg was one of the busiest concert composers in the world. His music avails itself of all manner of modern innovations, but there is a Neo-Classical orientation in his harmonies and formal design that makes his works appealing to a wide audience. The Quintet for Clarinet and Strings was comissioned by Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival and first performed in this festival in Finland in 1992. In the composer's own words: 'Despite its rather extended duration (almost 20 minutes) the work is in one continuous movement. Sections are based on either a static material composed of different scales giving the music an 'insect like' appereance, or on directional processes forcing the music to gradually change character or even physically pushing the music to extreme registers or speed.' This edition contains all the Parts.

With their wide range of differing moods these pieces concentrate less on the typical rhythm of the Tango but convey something of the demonic forces inherent in this dance. Unusual playing techniques like plucked strings, clusters from wrist to elbow and the use of the voice further emphasize the composer's 'sinister' intentions. Piano solo.

A three-movement piece which combines orchestral vocabulary with a variety of groove oriented music such as Latin, jazz, and American folk music. It can be performed either with any size string orchestra and winds, or with string sextet (2 violins, 2 violas, cello, bass) and woodwind quintet (flute, oboe, clarinet, French horn, bassoon). The first two movements, allegro moderato and lento, showcase the lyrical side of the saxophone. The third movement, allegro molto, involves a good deal of virtuosity and requires improvisational skills over modal chords.

Over the centuries the guitar was further developed into an instrument with four courses of strings - this is evident from early-16th-century tablature-books, the earliest known.

The arranger has chosen this distinctive, yet lesser-known Mozart rondo to reinforce spiccato. Definitely a composition oriented for performance. Puppet Music will also help to instill ensemble precision and rhythmic stability.

2nd version: Arrangement for Soli SS and upper strings 2 Vl, Va, Vc, Cb) Among his compositions, Franz Lachner, the long-serving Music Director of the Court of Munich and Director of the Royal Choir, left behind a considerable number of sacred works, including two settings of the Stabat Mater. The first Stabat Mater, op. 154, from 1856 was limited to a purely vocal ensemble (CV 70.037); the second, op. 168, from 1870 included strings and organ, in which the darker timbre was achieved through the absence of the violins. In its harmonic expression the second composition is especially oriented towards the, at that time, modern style of the North German School centred around Liszt and Wagner, but without ever exceeding a moderate degree of technical difficulty in the voice parts.
