Three Movements For Improvising Oboe, Soprano Sax, Viola, Cello. Par LIEBMAN DAVID. It is natural as we age to contemplate the finality of passing on, if not personally, then certainly as an effect from others around you whom have left this space. Having to endure the passing of family and friends is of course very trying. This is especially true when the perception is that someone 'passed before their time” though there are those of us who believe in fate implying that the Force works in its own mysterious way. In some ways I can subscribe to that concept, but for me when someone passes early, say in their fifth or sixth decade of life, it is 'before their time.” Composers often commemorate passings with music as a means to mourn and as well to celebrate the life of an individual who meant something to them. Such is the nature of this piece. Movement 1 - Past uses as source material themes I wrote for my mother Frances and father Leo when they passed - movement 2 - Present centers around a choral ('Prayer for Mike”) I wrote for my dear friend, saxophonist Michael Brecker when he passed a few years ago. This same period also saw the passing of other friends and associates whom I had known for years, all way too premature, beginning with JF Jenny Clarke and Bob Berg, Hans Gruber, Thomas Stowsand, David Baker, James Williams, Dennis Irwin, John Stubblefield. The final movement - ­Future is a requiem of sorts for all of us still here. With its improvisational character, it is meant to suggest the positive implications of living life to its fullest./ Recueil / Hautbois, Saxophone Soprano, Alto et Violoncelle

Par LOCKE MATTHEW. Edited by Michael Tilmouth No comprehensive collection of British music would be complete without reference to the outstanding achievement of Matthew Locke, most idiosyncratic and arguably the most original of Restoration composers before Purcell. This first of two chamber music volumes contains duos for two bass viols, the consort of two viols, the Little Consort and the Flat Consort of rugged chromatic music. First published in 1971, reprinted with corrections 1975./ Répertoire / Divers

Dense movement structures dialogizing in pairs and a darkened overall sound are what Mozart, Schubert and Brahms already thought to be fascinating in the genre of string quartet. Following this tradition, the composer and violist Brett Dean created 'Epitaphs', an homage to five recently departed colleagues and friends to each of whom is dedicated one movement of the 20-minute work. It was premiered at the Cheltenham Festival 2010 by Dean and the Australian String Quartet. / Quatuor A Cordes

Par KRAUS JOSEPH MARTIN. The first volume of the new scholarly edition contains the complete chamber music without a keyboard instrument. The most important group of works comprises the string quartets, 10 of which have survived. They were composed during the 1770s, whenHaydn was developing this class of music. The differing balance between such contrasting musical elements as entries in imitation, courtly melody, swift changes of tempo and unexpected modulations gives each of the quartets its special charm. Thefact that six of them were published in 1784 as Krauss 'Opus 1' by the publisher J. J. Hummel shows that the composer himself was convinced by his quartets. With the Flute quintet this volume alsocontains another key work in Kraus’s chamber music. Composed in Vienna about 1783 and also issued in manuscript copies, this work was printed by Ignaz Pleyel in Paris in 1799./ Répertoire / Ensemble de Chambre

Par ADES THOMAS. In Three Studies from Couperin, Thomas Adès empathetically reworks three pieces by the Baroque composer into music that is distinctively Adès without dismissing the source material. The basic structures of harmony and duration in ?Les Amusemens?, ?Les Tours de Passe-passe?, and ?L?Âme-en-Peine? remain unchanged, but the retouching of rhythm, texture and orchestral colours reveals an enthralling music that could be no other composer. The Three Studies has earned critical praise and popularity, having received over 200 public performances in more than 20 countries since its 2006 premiere. ?Three Studies from Couperin, looks at the music as if through a kaleidoscope, the shattered pieces of the original tumbling around like glinting fragments of coloured glass.?

Par BRITTEN BENJAMIN. Benjamin Britten wrote his 'String Quartet in F' in April 1928, shortly after he began lessons with Frank Bridge. He was fourteen at the time and it is thought that this piece was set as a homework exercise by this new teacher.This set of parts is in four parts./ Répertoire / Trio ou Quatuor à Cordes

Par VAUGHAN WILLIAMS RALPH. 'Quartet In C Minor' is in four movements with a total duration of about 25 minutes. The opening Allegro is similar in style to Dvorak in its lyricism, though there is a darker, more brooding atmosphere towards the close. It is tempting to detect a hint of folk-song in the theme of the Andantino, played by the viola, but that may be stretching hindsight too far. The movement has a wistful melancholy that carries over into the following Intermezzo, a song-like episode containing some of the most virtuosic writing in the work. The last movement is a theme and six variations with a fugal ending. The theme is ballad-like with a suggestion of 18th-century elegance. Modality creeps into the second Adagio variation and there is rhythmic exhilaration in the succeeding Presto. What can be admired in this attractive quartet is its conciseness. This String Quartet was his first major composition of any kind./ Répertoire / Trio ou Quatuor à Cordes

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.

Par VAINIO JENNAH. Composer Jennah Vainio sees End Credits for string trio (2016) as a portrayal of a person's inner mind: 'It is a beautiful, tender and introvert snapshot of a moment, a journey into the thoughts of a person. The work can be visualized by a video edited by myself. It is filmed shot by my father on an 8-mm film during a train trip in Germany in 1972. My grandfather briefly appears on the film, at the time the same age as I am now. As human beings and parts of the nature we are a links in an endless continuum - the train tracks reaching out to an eternity symbolise all this.' The video file for projection during the performance can be downloaded with the link provided with the score. This product includes the full score and the separate parts. Duration: c. 6' / Date parution : 2022-12-12/ Répertoire / Trio de Cordes

The study of string instruments should include ensemble playing at the earliest possible stage. There is much to be gained from the playing of duets. Each player learns how to listen to the other, and in a short time develops an awareness of balance, musical phrasing, intonation, and tone quality. This type of training is excellent preparation for participation in large groups. These four volumes of duets for two violins will help fill the need for early ensemble experience in the public schools. They should be used in string classes as a supplement to any of the standard string methods. They will also encourage music making outside of the school, with parents or with other students. These duets are ideal for recitals in the public schools and in public school festivals. They may be played by two performers, or by multiple performers on each part, with or without piano accompaniment.
