Though a
piano can always be
included, it is not an
essential requirement for
the performance of these
settings: in some of the
carols, two violins or
two flutes are quite
sufficient, especially if
voices are used as well.
The following
combinations are
particularly suitable for
domestic music-making,
whether or not voices are
included as well:one
violin and piano,two
violins and piano,two or
three violins,violins and
recorders,two concert (C)
flutes (and an alto
flute) and - as the ideal
combination for
shepherds' songs -
flutes, violins, cello
and piano.Performing
groups and music schools
have the advantage of a
wider choice of forces
and the possibility of
varying the
instrumentation within
the individual carols and
verses. Thus large and
small combinations can
alternate, strings and
flutes can play in turn,
and finally the piano can
be used by itself or to
reinforce other
instrumental
combinations, in which
case the cello can be
added, too.The pieces are
graded in increasing
order of difficulty; the
first carols are chosen
so that they can be
mastered by violinists
after as little as 4 to 6
months of learning their
instrument. The choise
and sequence of the
carols in this book, and
also their keys, were
determined, amongst other
factors, by their
suitability for the start
of violin tuition, both
in first and in third
position, so that these
carols make an especially
good supplement of
Christmas music to the
violin method of Fritz
and Gottfried Scharlach
(with its principle of
starting with the third
position). The
progressively increasing
difficulty of the carols
has resulted, for
example, in the three
Advent carols (nos.
23-25) being placed later
in the collection.The
editor hopes that these
carols will be much
played and sung, and thus
help to fill the
Christmas season with joy
and splendour.Fritz
Scharlach, Salzburg,
December 1972
Our
beautiful Christmas
carols, old and new, are
presented here in
settings, ranging from
the easy to the more
difficult, for various
combinations of voices
and instruments that may
be available in domestic
music-making or for a
Christmas concert.

Writ
ten in 2009 for an event
to celebrate the
Bicentenary of the birth
of Charles Darwin,
The Last Dance is a
musical reflection on
contemporary questions
about the survival of our
planet. It begins with
energetic, even frenetic,
material exchanged
between the instruments.
This is interspersed with
moments of respose that
are gradually extended,
until the piece concludes
with a quiet final
section with solo first
violin playing high above
the other instruments, an
ending open to many
different
interpretations.

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

two-movement string
quartet by the popular
young Estonian composer
Erkki-Sven Tuur (b. 1959)

influences. The most
pronounced ostinato
tendencies are in the
first violin, which
repeats the same motif
for several bars while
the other instruments
accompany it with their
own recurring motifs.
Released on the BIS

dedicated to the memory
of a friend of Tuur's,
