A work for four cellos based on J. S. Bach?s Suite n.5 for solo cello. It is part of the 'Transformation' series that attempts to transport Bach?s oeuvre into the modern era to convert Bach?s writing into that of today. The work is composed of four successively played parts. Though the sonority is completely different each part is closely related to Suite n.5.Part 1 Densité (density): each semiquaver from the beginning of the prelude is extended to form dense chords.Part 2 Chant (song): a new melodic line emerges from different transpositions of the Sarabande?s melodic lines.Part 3 Tempus fugit: fragments from the Courante pass quickly while the Gigue?s basic rhythmis repeated relentlessly.Part 4 Dans le temps qui s?étire (as time stretches): the Fugue subject from the second half of the Prelude appears about ten times bringing various developments.

28 Klavierduos Miet Sehr Leichter Primopartie. Par STRECKE KERSTIN. Dear piano-playing children and Tio fans. Sweet little Tio is sitting all alone at the piano! But he's a bit confused, since the new book in front of him is called 'Tio for Two.' Who will play with him and be accompanied by Tio? 'Tio for Two' is particularly easy for Player One and is lots of fun to play. You place both thumbs on C as usual and now you're ready for take-off! The pieces newly written by Kerstin Strecke are short and the time you spend with Tio goes by in a flash. Playing piano four-hands for the first time is a wonderful experience - thanks to Tio!/ Recueil / Piano 4 Mains

Three Rags for Clarinet Quartet. Par JOPLIN SCOTT. Qui dit Scott Joplin, dit ragtime. Surnommé « le roi du ragtime », ce pianiste et compositeur américain (1868?1917) a écrit une bonne centaine de rags, parmi lesquels les célèbres « Maple Leaf Rag » et « The Entertainer ». Ce genre musical se reconnaît aisément : une mélodie syncopée accompagnée d?une ligne de basse régulière au rythme simple. Comme ces deux éléments sont en partie décalés et, parfois, se contrarient même, la musique swingue beaucoup. « Rag » signifiant « lambeau », le terme « ragtime » provient donc de cette impression de déchirement entre mélodie et ligne de basse. La plupart des rags sont écrits pour le piano. Ils ont joui d?une immense popularité au tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles, principalement grâce à Joplin lui-même. Après sa disparition, l?ère du ragtime en tant que courant dominant s?acheva. Les années 1970 ont connu un regain d?intérêt pour Scott Joplin, surtout grâce au succès cinématographique The Sting (L?Arnaque), dont la bande sonore comprend plusieurs de ses compositions, y compris « The Entertainer ». Les trois rags rassemblés dans cet arrangement ne comptent pas parmi les plus connus de Joplin, mais ils sont incontestablement de haut niveau. / Date parution : 2022-01-18/ Répertoire / 4 Clarinettes

During his time Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No.4 was continually dogged by criticism that it was work desperately seeking a style. Critics said the Fourth did not seem know where it was coming from or knew which way it was going. Concert goers who were swept away by the lyrical beauty of the Second and storming brilliance of the Third were expecting Rachmaninov's Fourth Concerto to have that similar emotional impact. Nevertheless there is a wonderful rhythmic tautness to this outstanding piece. The finale contains some of the Fourth's most attractive music. This particular work is a reduction for 2 pianos where the music's potency isn't compromised by it's lack ofan orchestra.
