ISBN 9781491160114. UPC: 680160918713. Key: F# minor. English. Sir Rabindranath Tagore.

Richard Hageman (1881-1966) was a born into a family of musicians. As a pianist, he performed concerts from the age of six, and his mastery of this instrument is evident in the intricate accompaniment of this piece. After coming to America, (originally as accompanist to touring French singer Yvette Guilbert), he worked for a period of years as a conductor and pianist for the Metropolitan Opera in New York. It was during this period of time that he composed Do Not Go, My Love for solo voice, originally dedicating it to the operatic tenor, George Hamlin. Hageman's later career included work in Hollywood, first as a conductor, but later as a film-score composer and actor. Do Not Go, My Love is well-known among classical soloists, and many recordings exist. The SSA version of this American standard brings a vocal classic to younger singers who might not yet possess the dexterity to perform the original solo. Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was an Indian polymath; someone who possesses deep knowledge and understanding of many disparate subjects. Tagore's expertise included the visual arts, music, and poetry. Tagore won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913, contributing to his receiving knighthood from King George V in 1915, but Tagore renounced his knighthood after the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre. There are five Tagore museums in Bangladesh and three in India; at least three universities bear his name. Do Not Go, My Love is taken from The Gardener, a collection of poems translated from Bengali by Tagore and published in 1915. Number 34 in the collection, and taken by itself, the poem might be interpreted as someone watching over the deathbed of a lover or child; however, the larger narrative woven through The Gardener suggests a romantic relationship being clung to by the speaker.  .

Zoltán Kocsis (1952 - 2016) was not just a phenomenal pianist. He was also regarded as a musical 'polymath' whose genius embraced the activities of a composer, conductor, editor, instrumentalist, and arranger. In the last capacity, he added some 150 works to symphonic, chamber, song and piano repertoire. He gladly adapted music of the turn of the 20th century, as appears from his transcriptions of Richard Strauss, Ravel, Rachmaninoff, Enescu, and above all, Debussy. (Many of these are distributed by Editio Musica Budapest.) 'In Debussy's case, (...) I was always interested in works that offered possibilities beyond the bounds of the piano, possibilities for orchestration.Just as with Liszt it was often possible to see that certain of his works had been written for piano for publication purposes, so with Debussy it is clear that mainly his song accompaniments exceeded the bounds of possibility for the piano,' Kocsis stated in one interview. Perhaps that recognition also encouraged him to arrange the popular piano work Valse romantique (1890) for clarinet and piano. The arrangement superbly pinpoints the sensitive, almost ingratiating tunefulness of the Waltz, adding a piece that sounds great and is rewarding to perform to the clarinet repertoire.

Mit dem unlängst verstorbenen Zoltán Kocsis betrauert die Nachwelt nicht nur einen phänomenalen Pianisten, sondern auch einen 'Polyhistor der Musik': Sein außergewöhnliches Talent entfaltete sich ebenfalls in seiner Tätigkeit als Komponist, als Dirigent, als Herausgeber und nicht zuletzt auch als Arrangeur und Bearbeiter organisch. Durch letztere Aktivität bereicherte er die symphonische, Kammer-, Lied- und Klavierliteratur um etwa einhundertfünfzig Werke. Sehr gern adaptierte er die Musik aus der Zeit der Wende zum 20. Jahrhundert, wie auch seine Richard-Strauss-, Ravel-, Rachmaninov-, Enescu- und vor allem Debussy-Transkriptionen belegen. (Mehrere davon werden auch von unseremVerlag vertrieben.).

Libretto: Michael Hall (UK) Duration: 95' Composed: Completed 2007 Bruce Wolosoff Music CAST: Queen Elizabeth I of England (mezzo); Dr. John Dee, notable scholar and polymath (baritone); Madimi, a spirit conjured up in Dee's black mirror (soprano). SYNOPSIS: The opera, in 6 scenes, alternates between Queen Elizabeth's private study and the 'skrying' room in John Dee's house in Mortlake where he would invoke the spirits to appear in his black mirror. The three strong, archetypal roles are very evenly balanced and reveal the tensions and interplay between Dee, who is genuinely seeking the secrets of the universe, the Queen, who is obsessed with money, power and control, and Madimi, who promises to be the most forthcoming of the 70 odd spirits Dee contacted in his black mirror.

English-German-French-Dutch.

The Last Friend of Napoleon is based on a true piece of Dutch history. In October 1813, when Napoleon was beaten after his unsuccessful Russian campaign, the French withdrew from the Netherlands. At the beginning of 1814, the whole country had been liberated except for the town of Delfzijl, still occupied by French troops. This programmatic work is about political and military stubbornness, chasing dreams, and about love always following its own unequalled way. Being one of the most acknowledged composers of today, Dirk Brossé has created an epic work that depicts a dramatic story, using the full range of the symphonic band resulting in challenging brass passages, a widerange of percussion and a lot of strong, beautiful and melodic material.

The Last Friend of Napoleon is gebaseerd op een waargebeurd stukje Nederlandse geschiedenis. Als Napoleon in oktober 1813 na zijn mislukte Russische veldtocht wordt verslagen, trekken de Fransen zich terug uit Nederland. Begin 1814 is heel het land bevrijd, behalve de plaats Delfzijl, die nog bezet wordt door Franse troepen. Dit programmatische werk gaat over politieke en militaire stijfkoppigheid, over het najagen van dromen en over de liefde, die altijd haar eigen, onnavolgbare weg gaat. Dit werk van Dirk Brossé, een van de meest gerenommeerde hedendaagse componisten, vertelt een dramatisch verhaal door middel van volledig symfonisch blaasorkest waarin koper, eenscala van slagwerk en vooral veel prachtig melodisch materiaal de hoofdrol spelen.

The Last Friend of Napoleon basiert auf einer wahren Episode aus der niederländischen Geschichte. Als Napoleon im Oktober 1813 nach seinem erfolglosen Russlandfeldzug geschlagen wurde, zogen sich die Franzosen aus den Niederlanden zurück. Anfang 1814 wurde das ganze Land befreit, mit Ausnahme der Stadt Delfzijl, die noch von französischen Truppen gehalten wurde. Dieses programmatische Werk handelt von politischer und militärischer Starrköpfigkeit, vom Verfolgen von Träumen, und darum, dass die Liebe immer ihren eigenen Weg geht. Dirk Brossé, der zu den bekanntesten zeitgenössischen Komponisten zählt, stellt mit diesem epischen Werk eine dramatischeGeschichte dar. Er verwendet hierfür das große Spektrum des Sinfonischen Blasorchesters: Er hat anspruchsvolle Episoden für die Blechbläser, eine große Bandbreite für Schlagwerk und zahlreiche wunderschöne Melodien geschaffen.

The Last Friend of Napoleon est basé sur une histoire vraie néerlandaise.Alors que Napoléon est vaincu après sa campagne infructueuse en Russie en octobre 1813, les Français se retirent des Pays-Bas. Au début de 1814, le pays entier a été libéré l’exception de la ville de Delfzijl, toujours occupée par les troupes françaises. Cette œuvre programme aborde l’entêtement politique et militaire, la poursuite de rêves, et l’amour qui suit toujours son propre chemin. De l’un des compositeurs les plus reconnus de nos jours, cette œuvre épique de Dirk Brossé met en musique une histoire dramatique. Il profite pleinement de la palette complète d’un orchestre d’harmoniesymphonique, ce qui entraîne des épisodes stimulants pour les cuivres, une grande variété de percussion et une abondance de matériau mélodique magnifique et puissant.

The Last Friend of Napoleon (L'ultimo amico di Napoleone) si basa su un episodio di storia olandese. Dirk Brossé ha creato un'opera epica che descrive una storia drammatica, utilizzando tutte le potenzialit della banda che si esprimono in impegnativi passaggi degli ottoni, nell’ampia gamma di percussioni e in molto materiale bello e melodico.
