Johann Matthias Sperger, no doubt the leading double bass player of his time, was born on 23 March 1750 in the Lower Austrian town of Feldsberg (today Valtice, Czech Republic). After studying in Vienna and occupying various posts in Pressburg and Eberau, he was hired by Grand Duke Friedrich Franz I of Mecklenburg-Schwerin for the Duke's court ensemble in Ludwigslust. There Sperger died on 13 May 1812, a highly esteemed man. His extensive compositional oeuvre (which includes 45 symphonies, chamher works, church music and concertos) found its climax in his works for double bass solo. His 18 concertos, sonatas and chamber works for various instrumental comhinations off er the soloist gratifying musical tasks both from a musical as well as a technical point of view. The Adagio for Double Bass and String Quartet was composed around 1796/97, no doubt for the composer's own use. The autograph belongs to the Landesbibliothek Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (class. no. Mus. 5179). The work is based on thematic material from the second movement of Anton Franz Hoffmeister's Double Bass Concerto No. 3. The relationship between the two works and the mutual influence of both composers is plainly visible.In order to allow a performance of this charming little work without a string quartet, we are also offering a version with piano accompaniment (DVfM 8109) as well. Since the original solo part was written for a double bass tuned in thirds and a fourth (Viennese tuning: A-D-F sharp-A), it was necessary to arrange the enclosed for the solo tuning customary today: F sharp-B-E-A. The editor and publisher wish to thank the Landesbibliothek Mecklenburg-Vorpommern for its permission to print this first edition. Klaus Trumpf, Munich, Spring 1997 Klaus Trumpf

As the title of this piece implies, Dance of Salome is a seductive-sounding piece with a Middle Eastern feel. Composer Joseph Compello has crafted a serious musical work for intermediate intermediate string players, with infectious melodic figures and incessant rhythms. This work will do a wonderful job of highlighting the strengths of your budding ensemble. Perfect for contest or festival performance.
The Dance of Salome is a concert piece for a young string ensemble. The music should convey an atmosphere of antiquity; and, it should also be bold and aggressive. The middle, contrasting section beginning at m. 42 should be played legato without losing the persistent rhythmic drive.The following may be new to young players:1. Counting for the echoing figure which first appears at mm. 9-10. The two echoing figures are separated only by an eighth rest.2. Slurring eighth notes in groups of two.3. Hooked bowing.4. Eighth notes grouped in a 3+3+2 pattern appear throughout the piece, the first time at m. 21.5. The meter change at m.40.6. A≥ mm. 57 and 63. E≥ at m. 63.This arrangement has been recorded by Carl Fischer. The performance is available online free of charge. Thank you for choosing this composition. I hope you and your students enjoy performing it.Joseph CompelloGlen Arm, Maryland.

This book belongs to our collection of single issues from the ten-volume Gesualdo edition, which presented the composers complete works for the first time in a text-critical and practical version (with German prose translations of the vocal texts and aids for the pronunciation of the Italian). The single editions offer the most beautiful madrigals and sacred choral works in the customary editorial quality at a reasonable price.Tristis est anima mea (My Soul Is Sorrowful) was drawn from the 27 Responsories for the Passion Week which were published in their entirety in Vol. 7 of the Complete Edition (DV 4777). The bold expressiveness and imaginative interpretation of the text are brought to bear with particular compellingness in this motet by the princely Renaissance composer. Tristis est anima mea was included in 1998 in the list of optional contest works of the Fifth German Choral Competition.
