Par DE HAAN JACOB. Pacific Dreams describes the experience of Miguel, a traveling composer from Spain who, feeling somewhat alienated from his homeland, is wandering through an area of Sydney known as The Rocks. At a small outdoor market in a typical street of this oldcolonial neighbourhood, he discovers a print of William DeShazos painting 'Pacific Dreams' Portrayed in the painting is the surf of one of the exotic islands in the Pacific. Next, with the impressive Sydney Harbour Bridge looming over the narrowstreets of The Rocks, he envisions sultry Pacific beaches. Suddenly a theme he once composed about the lakes in Japan comes to him. Is it the Asian influences present in cosmopolitan Sydney that bring this theme to mind? Or perhaps the waters aroundSydney, over which he could sail to Tahiti? He is uncertain. Could this same theme be used to create a new composition about his feelings for the metropolis Sydney? How then to work his Pacific Dreams into the mix? Miguel is certainly no fan ofHawaiian music. Mayby he could use the vocabularies of islands like Hawaii and Tahiti, their beautiful vowel combinations being sung ad libitum by a mixed choir. With these ideas and his newly purchased print of 'Pacific Dreams', he boards the Metroat Circular Quay. He has a final glimpse of the harbour and the Sydney Opera House as the train races into the ground. On to the hotel! To work! He must compose!Maestoso : Miguel is impressed as he gazes upon the Sydney Harbour Bridge. And yet, hewants to go away from this city. Away, to an exotic island in the Pacific. Steady Rock : In the Rocks, musicians are playing at a square. Miguel basks in the atmosphere but at the same time he is fantasizing about Hawaii and Tahiti. Andante Lamentoso :In his hotel room, Miguel is feeling sad and lonely in this big city. He takes comfort in his 'Pacific Dreams'. Allegro : Miguel boards the boat that takes him from Darling Harbour to Circular Quay. In his mind he is traveling on to Hawaii. Or is ithome, where the bolero is playing? He is pulled back to reality by the skyline of Sydney. / Niveau : 3 / Répertoire / SATB

Sing, Choirs! is a library in miniature. It contains many of the Christian church's popular traditional anthems, including at least one example that will be suitable for each of the major services of the year. A number of Anglican chants (Psalms, Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis) are included, set out in a way that should enable those who are unfamiliar with the style to perform them easily. The selection of movements from the Mass can be used to enrich the music of the liturgy in services. Many of the works in Sing, Choirs! are presented in their original form, such as Bruckner's Locus Iste and Mozart's Laudate Dominum . Others are arrangements, adaptations or longer pieces, abridged to bring them into the scope of a useable anthem, including choral arrangements of Handel's Largo , the Ave Marias by Schubert and by Bach and Gounod, and Franck's Panis Angelicus amongst many others. This collection has practicability as a priority. The Organ parts can be played on either the Piano or the Keyboard. Much of the music in Sing, Choirs! will be suitable for special occasions, making this an indispensable volume for choirs singing at weekly church services, weddings, funerals and in the concert hall. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

Jan Dismas Zelenka's Te Deum in D for SATB and Orchestra.Two settings of the Te Deum by Jan Dismas Zelenka have been survived: the Te Deum in D major ZWV 145 of ca. 1724 and the present Te Deum a due cori in D major ZWV 146 which was composed in 1731. Whereas the Te Deum ZWV 145 is scored for five voices (?soli e tutti?) and an orchestra including two trumpets and timpani the setting of the Te Deum a due cori which includes five soloists and two four-part choirs as well as four trumpets and timpani and soloistic flauti traversi is magnificently realized in a more decisive manner. The large solemn scoring suggests that the work was composed for aworship service on the occasion of the birth of the Electoral Princess Maria Josepha of Saxony.

Over the years, the need for a new edition of Mahler's Symphony #2 became apparent for several reasons. First, many new sources for this work have become accessible since 1970, when Erwin Ratz completed the first critical edition of this symphony, the most significant being Mahler's personal reference score in which he recorded changes to be made (his last entries were made in September 1910). The second reason was the significant strengthening of the editorial standards of the critical edition in recent years. The music is now computer-generated. Previously, changes to the score could be made only by retouching the film of old engravings. Computerizationalso ensures a concurrence between the score and performance materials. Editorially, the new edition benefits from expanded texts that describe and assess the source materials, document and explain the editors' decisions and provide detailed information on the work's origin, the history of the published scores, performance practices, etc. Over the past five years, Renare Stark-Voit and Gilbert Kaplan, editors of the new edition of Symphony #2, have identified, evaluated and analyzed every significant source, and as a result of their work a substantial number of errors have been corrected. (Reinhold Kubik, taken from the preliminary note) Oh believe, my heart, oh believe:Nothing is lost with thee!Thine is what thou hast desired,What thou hast loved, what thou hast fought for!(Gustav Mahler in the Finale of Symphony #2) / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Piano

The supportive movements Panda creates also contribute to flow, dynamics, phrasing and pitch and leads to a homogene choir sound. Tom Johnson is a conductor and violinist and has worked with Panda and her method 'From Voice and Physique to Choireography' for quite some years now.

Roland C30 Digital Harpsichord including stool. Experience the elegance of baroque music.While producing authentically exquisite centuries-old harpsichord sounds and drawing inspiration from 21st century ingenuity the Roland Classic Series C30 Digital Harpsichord uses digital technology to enhance playability and expressiveness. Whether you are a virtuoso or a novice the C30 makes it possible for you to spend as much quality time as you want with the harpsichord. Taking up little space the styling of the C30 is modelled on the virginals. With an authentic wooden cabinet and a high-quality mahogany finish the traditional and simple styling will beright at home in a classic or modern interior. The period styling is enhanced by stained glass on the stand and the decorative panel on the keyboard lid. The C30 can easily switch between the built-in French and Flemish types of harpsichord. Both of these have four dispositions— 8’ I (back eight) 8’ II (front eight) 4’ (upper octave) and lute (buff mute) — and each disposition has its own dedicated selection button. You can play with a single disposition or layer more than one. The C30 also has an excellent fortepiano sound and has two admirable sampled organ options - 8' flute (ideal for solo accompaniment) and 8'+4' Principal which is ideal for use with a choir. The digital C30 doesn’t need tuning and you can simply switch the pitch from a=440 to baroque (415 Hz) and French baroque (392 Hz). If for ensemble playing you need to match the C30 to other instruments fine pitch adjustments can be made. You can easily take the C30 with you to group rehearsals and live performances. Even if the temperature and humidity vary you can be sure that the pitch will remain accurate. Time-consuming maintenance is a thing of the past. Now you can just turn on and play. As well as equal temperament you can select Werckmeister Kirnberger Vallotti and Meantone tuning
