Par ROSSINI GIOACHINO. La 'Petite Messe solennelle' est le plus beau travail ces dernières années de Rossini. Il a composé entre 1863 et 1864 à l'âge de 71 ans à titre de commission pour la comtesse Louise Pillet-Will pour la consécration de sa chapelle privée, où le travail a reçu sa première représentation en Mars 1864. Avec le 'Stabat mater', la masse est l'une des oeuvres sacrées mostimportant du compositeur.
L'instrumentation inhabituelle avec deux pianos et harmonium est tout à fait conforme à la tradition du clavier napolitaine du 18ème siècle qui a été cultivé en France à l'époque de Rossini. Il forme un contraste frappant avec le style des compositions sacrées de grande envergure comme l'a écrit, par exemple, Liszt et Bruckner. Rossini a expliqué qu'il a écrit la version orchestrale tard du travail datant de 1867 de crainte que s'il ne le faisait pas, d'autres compositeurs pourraient orchestrer la masse trop lourdement dans les accords ultérieurs.
La réduction pour piano par Andreas Kohs est très idiomatique et préserve en grande partie le caractère charmant de l'instrumentation inhabituelle.
- Basé sur le Urtext de la série 'oeuvres de Gioachino Rossini'
- Avant-propos en deux langues (anglais / allemand)
- Avec une part d'harmonium séparée et une partie de pianos I et II
'... Il est très difficile d'imaginer quelqu'un arriver à un texte plus savante, précis et pratiquement utile que cela.'
(Classics aujourd'hui Juillet 2010)
'Aucun compositeur dans la première moitié du 19e siècle a connu la mesure du prestige, la richesse, succès populaire ou de l'influence artistique qui appartenait à Gioachino Rossini. Ses contemporains l'ont reconnu comme le plus grand compositeur italien de son temps. Ses réalisations jeté dans l'oubli le monde de l'opéra de Cimarosa et Paisiello, la création de nouvelles normes par rapport auxquelles d'autres compositeurs devaient être jugés. C'est à la fois Bellini et Donizetti taillé styles personnels est indéniable, mais ils ont travaillé dans l'ombre de Rossini, et leurs personnalités artistiques ont émergé dans la confrontation avec ses opéras. Pas jusqu'à l'avènement de Verdi était Rossini remplacé au centre de la vie de l'opéra italien. '

Saint Francois D'Assise is an opera in 3 acts by Olivier Messiaen. This volume is focused on the Act II – 6. Le Prêche Aux Oiseaux which depicts a moment when he preached to the birds in Assisi. Saint Francis gives the birds his benediction to which they answer by a Concerto. Based on the life of Saint Francis of Assisi this opera is set in Italy and is composed as per below: Act I: 1. La croix 2. Les laudes 3. Le baiser au lépreux Act II 4. L’ange voyageur 5. L’ange musicien 6. Le prêche aux oiseaux Act II 7. Les stigmates 8.

Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was a French organist and composer passionate about Ornithology and one of the most important composers of his century.

?The Glagolitic Mass? one of the 20th century masterpieces of sacred music has a very complex genesis and constitutes an intricate editorial challenge. This new critical edition presents two different versions of the work in two separate volumes (B/5-I BA 6862 und B/5-II BA 6863): the ?September 1927? version which the composer completed before the first rehearsals and subsequent premiere in Brno and the version he partly reworked for the first Prague performance in April 1928. This second version was then revised further and published after Janacek?s death by Universal Edition Wien in 1930. Known as the ?final authorised version? it has been newly edited for thispublication which is based on the engraver?s copy of the score prepared by Janacek?s regular copyist Václav Sedlacek. The new Barenreiter edition also contains an informative preface (Cz/Eng/Ger/Fr/Ru) as well as detailed critical commentary. The ?September 1927? version can be seen more as a supplement and appears without text commentary.
