Organ

Composed by Alan Hommerding. Sacred. GIA Publications #003106. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-003106).

Commissioned by an organist for the one-year anniversary of the death of a loved one, these two pieces are based on contrasting psalm verses: The Lord is near to the broken-hearted (Ps.34:18) and I will praise the Lord all my days, making music while I live (Ps. 146.2). Composer Alan Hommerding united these pieces with a common theme, and transforms it as the mourner's spirit is transformed by faith.

“Fren ch composer, Pierre Max Dubois (1930-1995) significantly contributed to the wind repertoire. Circus Parade Duo for Alto Saxophone or Clarinet and Drums was published in 1965 and remains prominent as a more unusual addition to the ensemble repertoire. Dubois' music is characteristically light-hearted with unusual harmonic and melodic textures. Circus Parade Duo reflects Dubois' compositional characteristics with a typical performance lasting about fifteen minutes. Dubois' work is suitable for advanced performers, addressing virtuosic features, such as complex rhythms, constant changes of time signature, chromaticism, and exploitation of the ensemble, amongst other aspects. Circus Parade Duo is essential to the advanced Alto Saxophone, Clarinet and Percussion repertoire as Dubois' work makes for an exciting, varied and enjoyable performance for players and audiences alike.&rdquo.

1870: a calm year for Wagner

Romantic period. Complete Works. 544 pages. Breitkopf and Haertel #BV 422. Published by Breitkopf and Haertel (BR.BV-422).

Wagner spent the year 1870 almost exclusively in the idyllically situated country house of Tribschen near Lucerne. He dedicated himself to artistic creation (Siegfried, Gotterdammerung). In March Wagner began seriously thinking about settling in Bayreuth in order to realize his festival idea. In July Hans and Cosima von Bulow were divorced, and Wagner was able to wed his life companion in Lucerne on 25 August. His reclusive life did not prevent him from taking active part in the events around him. To begin with, there were performances of his works, in particular the world premiere of Walkure in Munich. The main topic of the second half of the year was the Franco-Prussian War, which was heartily applauded by Wagner. The volume contains 273 letters, 50 of which are printed here for the first time, and 23 others published in their entirety for the first time.
