UPC: 038081562148. English. Traditional Sea Ballad.

Clamoring to join the sea song craze? Here's an exceptionally well-prepared traditional sea ballad that is equal parts authentic and enjoyable. Dating back to the mid 1700s, this rollicking nautical adventure (probably from England or Scotland) tells the story of a ship's captain who spots a mermaid in the distance. Since mermaids were thought to bring bad luck, the whole crew panics! A chorus of sailors, a captain, the chef, and a parrot take turns expressing their woe---often in a comedic way. Singers will quickly be hooked, so directors can sink into the educational merits to uncover many hidden treasures. View the arranger's intro video for even more history and teaching ideas.

Composed by Hanspeter Kyburz. Chamber music; stapled. Kammermusik-Bibliothek (Chamber Music Library).

World premiere: Berlin, (Festspiele), September 9, 2004 (Quatuor Diotima)

Music post-1945; New music (post-2000). Score and parts. Composed 2003/2004. 118 pages. Duration 20'. Breitkopf and Haertel #KM 2500. Published by Breitkopf and Haertel (BR.KM-2500).

ISBN 9790004502730. 9 x 12 inches.

Hanspeter Kyburz works with three fundamental formative principles in his String Quartet. Soloistic, polyphonic and integratively i.e. homogeneously structured tutti runs alternate with one another, whereby the form does not follow a fixed pattern. Multifaceted correspondences and motivic relationships result from the interplay of the individual sections. The work was given its much-applauded first performance on 9 September 2004 at the Berliner Festwochen. The composer radically revised his quartet after the first performances. From January 2005 onwards, all concerts featuring the work will be based on this new version.

Adapted lyrics honor the bond of friend to friend.

George Frideric Handel is considered England's first and foremost composer of oratorios. Above all, the Messiah is regarded as the epitome of sacred music and in German-speaking countries it is also one of the most often performed works in the genre. The version of the Messiah which is most often performed today is a combination of various versions. Consequently, the present critical edition by Ton Koopman contains all the surviving alternative versions of the solo movements. A concordance makes it possible to assign these movements to those various performances of the work conducted by Handel between the Dublin premiere in 1742 and the London concerts which took place up to 1759. In accordance with the wishes voiced by many choral conductors and singers, the vocal score is available in separate English and German versions. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.5505600.

Practical , timeless advice abounds in this jaunty contemporary choral with texts lifted from Renaissance-era poetry and a translation of ancient verse. The opening melody winds around the tonic triad before the B section breaks into colorful contemporary harmony in a chorale setting. Light, yet legit.
