Requiem Trio. By Brotons Salvador. For violin, cello, piano. Chamber Music. The Requiem Trio was commissioned by the New York based Damocles Trio, and was written during the Summer of 2004. When I was thinking about the message of this new Trio, the catastrophic images of the New York terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 came to mind. I therefore decided to write a Trio as a tribute to the city of New York and to all the people that lost their lives on that tragic day. The four movements of the piece have titles taken from parts of the Requiem mass. Duration 20 minutes. Published by Brotons and Mercadal (Spanish import).

Signs, Games and Messages are series for solo instruments and small chamber ensembles. Each of the three notions refers to an essential factor in Kurtág’s music. Signs ties it with the composer's period of study in Paris as a young man, when he could not compose, merely put graphic signs on the paper. Games links with his nine-volume series for the piano with that title. Messages conveys the very personal content of these works, in that these short pieces are meant to be diary-entries and missives to musiciansand friends important to Kurtág. The collection – like the earlier five series for string instruments – does not form a coherent cycle. The pieces can be played individually or in various orders or mixed with from Signs, Games and Messages written for other instruments.

Traci ng the journey of a bottle carrying music, Miguel del Aguila’s MUSIC IN A BOTTLE is exhilarating and ravishing, yet equally poignant with sadness. The 10-minute work draws inspiration from post-minimalist textures and rich harmony. It is technically within the reach of intermediate to advanced students, as well as enticing for professional recitals.
Music in a Bottle portrays the symbolic journey of a bottle carrying a message across the oceans and finally sinking without its message ever having been delivered.The bottle and its journey represent to me our own selves and our own lives’ journey, and how when we die we take with us most of the memories within us, many of which were undisclosed to everyone else.The work is divided in 3 sections:I. The Bottle’s JourneyII. The MessageIII. The Bottle SinksMusic in a Bottle has been recorded by James Miltenberger on the Scotwood Music CD, “20th Century Dances and Improvisations.”â� ��” Miguel del Aguila.

Trotta's unique juxtaposition of texts from the past (Requiem?text in the?Liber Usualis) with the present (e.e. cummings poem?i carry your heart) results in a compelling, lush composition accessible to mixed choirs of all sizes. With optional oboe and solo or small group, i carry your heart?is appropriate for concert, festival, retirement or a special tribute. It is certain to be adored and appreciated by all. Highly recommend!.
This piece incorporates the Introit from the Requiem in the Liber Usualis in the men's voices using the text by E. E. Cummings. The women's voices have original music that soars gracefully about the plainsong. The middle section features the Requiem text, set simply in a homophonic style. The final section blends the two styles into a prayer of thanks and remembrance. This beloved E.E. Cummings text was commissioned in honor and loving memory of Dr. Ferris Ohl (1914-2017) in thanks for over four decades of service to the Heidelberg University Music department. Director of Choral Activities Dr. Greg Ramsdell sought to pay tribute to the rich legacy of Dr. Ohl by having a setting of the text that broadened the scope of the message i carry your heart to include those who have come before us and who live on in our song.   INSERT GRAPHIC HERE - I e mailed you on 5-14.

The inspiration for this piece came from the address of the person who commissioned the work: Morse Street, Houston, Texas. It pays tribute to the immense skill of the engineers who succeeded in submerging a wire across the Atlantic to send messages in morse code from America to Europe. This technical ingenuity provided the perfect source of material for a transatlantic musical message. This work explores the vast expanse of the Atlantic and makes use of Irish melodies to celebrate the point where the cable enters into the Atlantic Ocean.

Die Idee zu diesem Stück entsprang aus der Adresse des Auftraggebers Morse Street, Houston, Texas, welche an die schier unglaubliche Leistung erinnert, eine Leitung für die Übertragung gemorster Nachrichten quer durch den Atlantik zu legen. Dieser technische Triumph bot sich als Thema für eine transatlantische musikalische Botschaft an. Die Musik vermittelt die endlose Weite des Atlantiks und es erklingen - dem Ausgangspunkt des Unterfangens zu Ehren - auch irische Themen.

Morse Street, Houston, Texas, l’indirizzo della societ che ha commissionato questo brano, evoca l’incredibile prodezza tecnica realizzata nel 1866: la posa del primo cavo telefonico sotto-marino attraverso l’Atlantico che permetter la trasmissione dei messaggi in codice Morse. Il brano inizia con una descrizione dell’impressionant e distesa d’acqua dell’Atlantico. I temi dell’Allegro vivo ricordano i colori e i paesaggi irlandesi, punto di partenza di questa grande avventura tecnologica.

Chris tmas Musical The message of Christmas is a message of joy - and becomes the central theme that is woven throughout this 37-minute musical by Lloyd Larson. Easily learned, this work contains eight selections of both new and familiar carols and spirituals, including Keith Getty's powerful song, 'Joy Has Dawned. ' The work is dynamically arranged for SATB choirs and orchestra, and is filled with the joy of the season, which congregations will find appealing, as the message embraces the hope that we have in both the good days and the bad - that joy has dawned upon the world - giving us something to celebrate!

About the WorkThe text of this work is most often attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson, although it doesn't mirror his style, and no research credits an essay, book or letter with its source. Other individuals are occasionally suggested as possible authors, but equally unsubstantiated. Even whether the textis a poem or a quote seems unclear. But there is one thing that is without question: that this beloved text has inspired countless people and contributed toward a view of the world through eyes of hope, resilience, courage, beauty, and joy. Music for this text flowed more easily than about any text I have ever set. It has an emotional connection that is mystical, and after I read it for the first time, I immediately sat down and wrote this work without stop.Rehearsal NotesIn many cases, art is more expressive and reaches a wider range of human emotions when multiple artistic fields are fused together. Such is the case with choral music: the intertwining of literature, music, and very often dance, visual arts, and more. The story in choral music is often quite specific, much like film scoring. At times, the music is the picture frame (score) around the picture (text), while at others the music is the leading dramatic/emotional impetus.In the present case (My Farewell Wish), the text is sincere, innocent, heartfelt, and earnest. By all accounts, the message is altruistic, expressing selfless desire for another's present/future happiness. Capturing this message has a strong reliance on the performers to not only carry the emotional intent of the moment (a phrase of text or a measure), but the the energy and continuance of the message throughout.The use of the [o] vowel functions almost as instrumental interludes or underpinning of strings. The conductor may use the [o] as indicated in the score, or a [u] vowel, a hum (with [o] as the vowel inside the mouth), or all three at different times for different reasons. In an acoustical performance (no mic), the soloist and the ensemble are a reflection of each other's natural sound. And, even gentle, warm solo voices should have no trouble projecting.Two final thoughts: 1) the obbligato or added voice or two on high passages (m. 66) or a single note (final chord) will be best delivered by lyrical, pure voices with demonstrated control; and 2) the metronome marking of 80 bpm (mm. 1–81) was strongly considered and should be followed.About the ComposerZ. Randall Stroope is an American composer and conductor. His composition teachers were Normand Lockwood and Cecil Effinger, both students of the Nadia Boulanger, the famous French teacher (and student of Gabriel Fauré). Randall is the artistic director of two international summer music festivals, is an Honorary Board Member of the NationalAssociation of Italian Choral Directors, and has conducted in 25 countries. He has directed over 40 times at Carnegie Hall, and is a frequent conductor at other prestigious concert venues. Randall has 190 published works, and his music can be heard on Spotify, YouTube and other platforms, including his website (www.zrstroope.com).
