Concerto grosso for trumpet, tenor trombone and chamber ensemble. Par SCHNEIDER ENJOTT. The concerto takes the historical figure of the brutal impaler Vlad Tzepesch (1431-1476) as its starting point and subsequently develops the myth into an overwrought and gruesome piece of work: 1: “Oderint dum metuant” is a raving Allegro with a Baroque ritornello structure and modern “Draculisms”. 2: “Luna su Tirgoviste” is a memoriam for the thousands of impaled victims who came to a violent end in today’s Târgoviste. 3: “Il ballo transilvano” confronts a naive waltz rhythm with aggressive polyrhythmic reinterpretations – in the manner of the stick and the carrot. 4: “Bacio di sangue” is Neo-Baroque horror music which has got out of hand, demanding extreme virtuosity from both soloists and ensemble.

Though not nearly as well-known as the 'London Trios ' these six delightful divertimentos are Haydn's first pieces of chamber music to expressly call for the flute. Straightforward and full of Haydn's esprit they are a treasuretrove for all lovers of music-making in the home. The stylistic variety of these cheerful pièces d'occasion surely reflects the fact that they are partly based on earlier models: Haydn's baryton trios as well as arias and otheritems from his opera 'Il mondo della luna' ('The World on the Moon').

10 duets. Par IGUDESMAN ALEKSEY. In his new collection, Aleksey Igudesman goes well beyond where his previous book, Violin and Cello and More left off. In the first book, the pieces were designed for beginners and intermediate players to have fun and be stretched. But here, no punches are pulled! In ?Danny Boy?, the cellist will be tackling double stops in tenor clef and in ?Pizzicato?, both players are faced with fiendishly fast sempre pizzicato. The book progresses through many styles, taking in Aleksey?s reinventions of famous pieces by Mozart and Beethoven, to an unashamedly virtuoso conclusion called ?Double Trouble?. Even Aleksey himself says ?it is not exactly easy to play?. You have been warned! Wonderful fun and very challenging pieces, ideal for concert encores. / Date parution : 2022-11-15/ Recueil / Violon et Violoncelle
