SKU: PE.HX9014

Composed by Monika Herzig. Jazz Ensemble; Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. HXmusic. Jazz; Swing. Score and Part(s). HXmusic #98-HX9014. Published by HXmusic (PE.HX9014).

Originally recorded by Monika Herzig and a cast of musical collaborators from around the globe on her 2016 album, The Whole World in Her Hands, Oh, Muddy Waters is a bluesy call-and-response between bass instruments and the whole ensemble. Monika has arranged the small group version for big band, with modest brass ranges, suggested piano voicings, and solo space for tenor sax and guitar (or piano). Solo transcriptions are provided that match the recording note-for-note. Laid-back, soft syncopations and a rich harmonic language bring to life a composition that builds on that initial bass riff. Top trumpet note: G5.

The composer writes, 'Quite some time ago I heard - through a conversation in a mobile phone - a wonderful concert of ringing church bells from an European capital. I found it very hard to concentrate about the conversation, because I was so engrossed by the chaotic world of bell sound. The night after, I dreamt that the sound of those low singing bells was rising up from a piano in a huge empty concert hall. That experience became the starting point for my piano piece, 'The Shadows of Silence'. But before the piece gets to the ringing bells it moves through a landscape of shadows - Shadows of the silence before the bells - Silence before the storm - Shadows of melodies which all the time leaves traces even in the short passages of storm. After the passage with the low ringing bells the shadows of silence returns melted in to a lament, which are sending two regards. One to two small beautiful - not very well known - bars by Mozart, and one to the sextet in my own opera, 'Under the Sky'.

Das Fragment Kyrie eleison fur Orgel im Fruhjahr 1980 fur Zsigmond Szathmary komponiert ist Fragment im fruher angedeuteten Sinn. Als Ausschnitt aus dem Labyrinth unserer musikalischen Moglichkeiten, als Teilausdruck von diesen. Vielleicht auch Beginn eines grosseren Zyklus.Zugleich Ruckerinnerung an meine musikalische Kindheit, als ich, die Pedale mit den Fussen kaum erreichend, auf einer Orgelbank sass in einem kleinen Dorf mit dem schonen Namen Odenspiel, improvisierend ohne Ende, traumverloren.Spater wurden Kirche wie Orgel zum Problem. In neuen Stucken nun Ausgang von einfachen Elementen (Ton und Farbe, Intervall und Cluster, periodischer und aperiodischer Rhythmus, Gestik und Feld), Versuch, entsprechend den Bedingungen der Orgel, Punkt und Linie zur Flache zu formen. Auch zu explosiven Ausbruchen.Die Tone zu Beginn und Ende bilden ein Halbtonintervall, zugleich ein stationares Tongewebe. Erinnerung eines alten Klagerituals? Versteinert als nicht mehr mogliches oder noch nicht wieder mogliches Kyrie eleison?(Friedhelm Dohl)Bibliography:Petersen, Birger: Neue Musik.

She's Madonna was a 2007 hit single for world pop mega-star RobbieWilliams. This up-beat single has a 1980?s electro/pop feel due to itbeing a colaboration with The Pet Shop Boys. A classic song from oneof today's biggest names in pop music.

She’s Madonna is de derde single van het album Rudebox van de wereldberoemde Britse popzanger Robbie Williams. Hij schreef het nummer samen met Chris Lowe en Neil Tennant, de Pet Shop Boys, en dat is goed te horen aande sound. De opvallende titel verwijst naar het gerucht dat Guy Ritchie - toen hij zijn vriendin verliet voor superster Madonna - zei: “I love you baby, but face it, she’s Madonna.” Peter Kleine Schaars maakte een vakkundig arrangementvan deze herkenbare hit.

Mit She’s Madonna, einer Hommage an die große Popdiva Madonna, die Robbie Williams zusammen mit den Pet Shop Boys aufnahm, gelang es dem Briten, an seine größten Hits wie Angel oder She’s the One anzuknüpfen. Peter Kleine Schaars bearbeitete den schönen, eingängigen Song aus dem Album Rudebox für Blasorchester.

Rudebox est un des grands opus de la méga-star Robbie Williams. Parmi la longue liste des artistes ayant collaboré cet album, on citera les Pet Shop Boys l’origine du titre She’s Madonna (en hommage Madonna), une splendide ballade électro-pop, chanson-phare de l’année 2007.
