Music for unaccompanied choir features very little in the works of the violin virtuoso and composer Louis Spohr (1784-1859), although he used the chorus to great effect, particularly in his early Romantic operas. Now, Clytus Gottwald has transcribed three of Spohr's songs with piano accompaniment for five-part mixed choir. The texts are by Goethe, Amalia Schoppe, and Uhland. Spohr's music, stylistically typical of a period of musical transition with its indefinable qualities, offers in a special way starting points for Gottwald's technique of arranging, influenced as it is by contemporary music. Gottwald's transcriptions of songs and instrumental works for vocal ensemble, distinguished by their highly sophisticated sound, have become firmly established in choral repertoire throughout the world in recent years.

Still no Meistersinger year

According to Wagners plan, 1862 was to have been the Meistersinger year. Although the libretto was completed in January, its musical setting dragged on and was ultimately postponed. Among the reasons for this were his relocation to the town of Biebrich am Rhein, his crushing financial concerns, the constant flow of summer visitors from near and far, his temporary invalidity of several weeks following a dog bite...All of this can be read in detail in the letters which also include Wagners artistic successes of that year: In Frankfurt, he conducted his Lohengrin for the very first time (twelve years after the first performance!); he introduced the Meistersinger Overture in Leipzig and organized concerts with scenes from his operas in Vienna. Of far-reaching biographical import are his complete amnesty he was once again allowed to return to his native Saxony as well as his further distancing and ultimately final separation from his wife Minna.

Still no Meistersinger year.

The Bohemian composer Jan Dismas Zelenka was a double bass player and church music composer at the Saxon court of the Elector August the Strong and his son Friedrich August II. In the years after 1721 he composed an extensive repertoire of Catholic church music together with the Kapellmeister Johann David Heinichen. These works, together with the Dresden operas composed by Johann Adolf Hasse in quick succession from 1731 onwards, established the reputation of the Saxon court as one of the most important musical centers of the late Baroque period. Zelenka composed this psalm setting De profundis in D minor ZWV 97 in 1724 on the death of his father, including a concluding Requiem verse. This was later replaced by the lesser doxology so that the work can be performed in the office of Christmas week. Both endings are included in this new edition. Three trombones, used as an independent instrumental group, give the work a special tonal color. Score available separately - see item CA.4006400.

This transcription for violin by Fritz Kreisler is what made Poldini internationally famous.

In the Final Analysis takes its inspiration from various speeches given by both John and Robert Kennedy. The composer was moved by the Kennedys’ idea of a strong, diverse, and cooperative society. John Kennedy’s commencement speech at the American University in 1963 was especially inspirational and the piece takes its title from the following passage:For in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all  inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s futures. And we are all mortal.The introduction sets the tone of the piece and is reminiscent of the “Americana” feel of composers like Aaron Copland. The main theme enters in Violin 1 at m. 7.Throughout the piece, this material is presented in different situations and moods, reflective of the diverse society spoken of by the Kennedys. A lyrical “B” section appears at m. 23 and later at m. 48 in a slightly different orchestration. The introductory material returns at m. 63 and leads to a vibrant coda which brings the piece to a close.In the Final Analysis was commissioned by Victor Fernandez and the Booker Middle School Orchestra.
