Le présent volume contient quatre ouvertures indépendantes. Alors que les ouvertures de de La Fiancée de Messine 'de Schiller, de Jules César' de Shakespeare et de Goethe 'Hermann et Dorothée révèlent références littéraires et dramatiques dans leurs titres, l'Ouverture du Festival du vin du Rhin chanson a son contexte dans les festivals de musique contemporaine à laquelle chorales et sociétés musicales se sont réunis pour faire de la musique ensemble. Toutes les ouvertures ont été composées à l'époque de Schumann à Düsseldorf. / Orchestre

Par CANAT DE CHIZY EDITH. Besançon, la 'Ville du temps', m'a inspiré le titre de cette, pièce pour grand orchestre, commande du Festival de Besançon pour la finale du Concours International des Jeunes Chefs d'Orchestre. D'un ostinato rythmique obsédant marquant le début de l'oeuvre, jusqu'au temps suspendu de la fin, la partition explore les diverses dimensions du temps, utilisant de complexes superpositions rythmiques menées au paroxysme, les ruptures, les suspensions, les silences, etc... De la scansion parfois insupportable et inexorable du temps à la dimension du 'hors-temps' se crée ainsi une texture animée de courants divers et de dynamiques fluctuantes, ponctuée de brusques impacts. Cette réflexion sur le temps en révèle toute la relativité et prend racine dans mon propre univers où ce questionnement est continuellement présent.

Il est incertain si le thème de la chorale de 'Variations Haydn' est en fait de Haydn. Il est certain, cependant, que les Variations sont caractéristique du style orchestral mature de Brahms et son sens strict de la forme. Avec ' Ouverture académique ', le compositeur / Orchestre

Par BORBOUDAKIS MINAS. Constellation by Minas Borboudakis is a 14-minute work for orchestra (4 Horns in F, Timpani, 3 Percussion, Strings – Sampler). 'The first version of Constellation for octet was written in 2002 when Gidon Kremer asked me to write a new piece for the sextet of the Kremerata Baltica during a series of performances of my works in his festival in Lockenhaus', says the composer. In the version for orchestra, glissandi spread out from a single note phrase by phrase. The four horns, placed stereophonically in pairs to the right and left of the conductor, create explosions of sound through repetitive lines and motivic escapades. The premiere took place on 7 January 2011 at the Tonhalle Zurich by the Tonhalle-Orchester Zurich under the baton of Constantinos Carydis. The score (EP 12575) is available for sale as part of the Peters Contemporary Library. The performance material can be hired. / Date parution : 2022-09-07/ Répertoire / Orchestre

Par CASABLANCAS BENET. Shade and Darkness, lasting some 12:30 minutes, was co-commissioned by the Centro Nacional de Difusión Musical and the Festival Internacional de Música y Danza de Granada. The work is inspired by Turner's famous painting of the same name, subtitled 'The Night Before the Flood', although this does not imply any programmatic or even less descriptive intention, beyond the composer's admiration for the painter, and for the richness of tones and chiaroscuro, subtlety in the treatment of pictorial matter, and the dynamism and emotional force present in his work, to whose depth John Ruskin alludes: 'Nuance is in Turner, first of all, a beautiful aid to the great impression to be conveyed, but it is neither the source nor the essence of that impression; it is little more than a visible melody... preparing the feelings for the reading of the mysteries of God.' The score, generous in expressive contrasts, explores the ductility and richness of possibilities of the strings, with a very diversified use of textures, densities and colours. The formal arrangement describes a wide ternary arc, consisting of two slow and often static sections - not without ominous foreboding - and a more lively central part, punctuated by occasional turbulence and dazzling flashes of timbre, culminating in a powerful climactic process. In the final bars the four voices of the classical quartet fleetingly emerge, as a tribute to Günter Pichler, founder and member of the Alban Berg Quartet, to whom the score is dedicated, and who conducted the premiere of the work in front of the Joven Orquesta Nacional de España on 24 and 25 June 2014 at the Auditorio Nacional de Música in Madrid and in the Patio de los Mármoles del Hospital Real in Granada. / Date parution : 2022-03-15/ Répertoire / Petit Orchestre

19 Bände im Versand-Schuber. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Awarded with the German Music Edition Prize 'Best Edition' 2008.

A MUST for everyone who is passionate about Bach´s music! No group of works in Johann Sebastian Bach?s output is as wide-ranging as the cantatas. This is hardly surprising considering that for over five years Bach was required to compose a work, or at least re-work an existing one, for every Sunday and festival of the church year, as well as for numerous secular occasions such as council inaugurations, school and university celebrations and royal birthdays. Unfortunately, not all cantatas have survived. However, over 200 sacred and secular works exist and form a corpus of works suitable for all possible occasions. This rich musical heritage is still as relevant today as it was then. Bärenreiter?s unique edition, which encompasses more than 11, 000 pages, includes all cantatas together with the motets, chorales and sacred songs in the Urtext of the ?New Bach Edition? (NBA Series I and III). As a special extra, the recently rediscovered aria ? Alles mit Gott und nichts ohn ? ihn ? is also included. Only available here is an additional volume with an introduction (German/English) by Christoph Wolff and an index.
