Th
e first version of
“Dardanusâ€,
which was performed at
the end of 1739, was
composed apparently in
only six months and marks
a particularly productive
phase in Rameau’s
career. In a period of
only six years five of
his major works were
performed at the Acadmie
Royale de Musique in
Paris. The theme is
taken from Greek
mythology: The opera
describes the war between
Teucer (the future
founder of Troy), his
Phrygian people and the
army of Dardanus.

This
humorous little vignette
for string quartet was
composed in 1979 and was
originally intended to be
published by Piedmont
Music, the ASCAP division
of EB Marks Classical.
For reasons unknown,
however, it remained in
manuscript form until
2021, when a copy of the
composer's autograph
parts was discovered in
the archives of a
completely different Alan
Shulman piece. This newly
engraved Latham Music
edition therefore
represents the first
publication of Shulman's
delightful work, as well
as the first full score.
As the title suggests,
this is a medium-slow
rag, or cakewalk in a
loose AABA form. The
bluesy and graceful main
melody is introduced by
the first violin in a
call and response
exchange with the rest of
the ensemble. The
restatement of the
primary theme is led by
the second violin, with
the entire ensemble
playing pizzicato, having
the effect of playful
mockery. In the B
section, the first violin
earnestly reasserts the
stately grace from the
opening however, the
cello is clearly becoming
restless and decides to
take over the lead just
before the final reprise.
The lighthearted ending
again has the first
violin doing its best to
bring the tune to a
refined conclusion, but
the rest of the group
still has mischief in
mind. After a couple
moments of seeming
confusion, the ensemble
regroups at last and
plays the final riff with
resolute emphasis. If
you're looking to add a
light moment to a recital
program, or looking for a
short, medium level
contest piece that
players and audiences
alike will enjoy, this
little miniature is an
ideal choice!

Glorious
Hill may be performed by
a male choir.Text by Pico
della Mirandola
(1463-1497) from De
Hominis
Dignitate.Glorious Hill
was commissioned by the
Hilliard Ensemble and
first performed by them
at its summer Festival of
Voices in Lewes, Sussex,
in August 1988. It was
the first piece I wrote
for the ensemble and I
focused on the singers'
unique ability to move
with ease from early
music to tonal music of
the present day. There
were techniques which I
asked for which I hardly
needed to notate - the
staggered breathing of
the two tenors to supply
a continuous unbroken
held note for example -
and the piece moves
between passages for solo
voices and sections of
highly chromatic
homophony, almost as if
the music were switching
between the 12th century
of Perotin and the 16th
century of Gesualdo. Each
of the four voices is
given its own solo
passage, sometimes
accompanied, sometimes
quietly supported by the
other voices.The title,
Glorious Hill comes from
the name of the
small-town Mississippi
setting of Tennessee
Williams' Summer and
Smoke. I wrote the music
for the 1987 production
of this play at the
Leicester Haymarket
Theatre, the first time I
had written any
incidental music for the
stage. Williams makes
very specific demands in
terms of music and there
is one particularly
powerful scene, the
penultimate one,
throughout which music
and atmospheric sound
effects are continuous.
The principle character
Alma argues passionately
about the vital
importance of human
choice with the man to
whom she has, too late,
admitted her love. I
watched this section
every night throughout
the 4 week run of the
play watching the
different ways in which
the actress, Frances
Barber, played the scene.
There is a powerful
emotional and
philosophical connection
between the imagery of
this scene and a passage
from the Renaissance
philosopher Pico della
Mirandola's Oration on
the Dignity of Man which
forms the text of
Glorious Hill. This
passage has been
described as one of the
few passages in
Renaissance philosophy to
treat human freedom in a
modern way. The text,
which is sung in Latin,
is addressed by God to
Adam before the fall from
grace.Gavin Bryars.

Henri
Vieuxtemps was a
remarkably productive
composer who wrote seven
violin concertos, concert
etudes, two viola sonatas
and a dozen or so chamber
works, yet the bulk of
his output consists of
works for violin and
piano. Vieuxtemps's
favorite musical form was
the then-fashionable
fantasy on themes from
well-known operas, of
which he left us quite a
number. The Romance
originally composed for
violin and piano is based
on a theme from Stanislaw
Moniuszko's national
opera Halka (Jontek's
famous aria 'Szumia jodly
na gór szcycie'
[The firs sough on the
mountain top.]). The
present edition is based
on Zdzislaw Jahnke's 1952
edition. This work gives
the player the
opportunity to display a
beautiful tone and
proficiency in both the
left and right hand; it
is also a marvelous
exercise in rubato
playing.

Lasting 27
minutes, Kalevi
Aho’s String
quartet no. 4 (2021) is
in four movements. The
first, Nocturne, begins
with a hazily muted
melody dominated by the
interval of a minor third
on the second violin.
Though the first movement
begins in nocturnal mood,
there is also some more
forceful music around the
middle. The second
movement, Allegro
capriccioso, is quick
with quirky rhythms. At
times tempestuous, it
faces the players with
the biggest technical and
virtuoso challenges. The
following Largo is slow.
A couple of times in the
first half it is
dominated by soft,
mysterious harmonies. The
tempo marking of the
virtuosic closing
movement is Presto,
leggiore. The movement
begins with quick,
flickering,
will-o’-the-wisp-l
ike music. It later
builds up to an extremely
violent climax dominated
by tremolo figures on the
second violin and thick
chords on the other
instruments. The
flickering music of the
beginning returns at the
end, before dissolving
into silence.

product includes the full
score (A4) and the parts
(B4).

'san-Baptis
te Duvernoy (1800-1880)
was a French pianist,
composer, and professor
of piano at the
Conservatoire de Paris. A
composer of more than 300
works, he is primarily
known for his studies,
including the opus 176
Elementary Studies, which
were written for
beginner's lessons on the
piano. Duvernoy's studies
intentionally lack
technical sophistication
making them a suitable
complement to Czerny
etudes. The lack of
technical rigor allows
students the latitude to
focus on expression,
lyricism and tone
production...With clearly
notated articulation and
dynamic markings, the
student has the
opportunity to experience
music making on a number
of levels...Looking at
the music itself the
quality and mindfulness
of Schott's typography is
self-evident. Through
careful spacing, most of
the studies fit well on a
single page.--American
Music Teacher.
