Par CANAT DE CHIZY EDITH. Le titre est évocateur: il s'agit de mouvement. Au fur et à mesure de mon travail s'est imposé de façon de plus en plus insistante la nécessité d'une musique en perpétuel mouvement. Une musique qui procède plus par mutation que par développement, une musique à multiples facettes, changeante, irisée, insaisissable. Je parle de nécessité car, en réalité, je ne sais pas trop pourquoi je suis amenée à une telle écriture. Cela relève d'une poussée intérieure, quasi biologique, où il s'avère impératif d'exprimer par là une puissante énergie. Mes dernières oeuvres en portent la trace: Siloël (ange de l'énergie), Hallel (louange), Exultet, Vivere, Moving. Ce propos n'est pas sans poser de problème. Car comment donner forme au jaillissement initial sans l'altérer. Si la facture est trop élaborée, le matériau reste inerte. S'il prend le pas sur la structure, l'oeuvre s'effiloche. Bref, il s'agit de rester sur la ligne de crête. Surtout, ne jamais se laisser enfermer ni par un système, ni par une forme, ni même par une idée: dès que l'un ou l'autre sont exposés, s'en échapper, quitte à y revenir, mais s'en échapper pour aller vers ce qui n'est pas prévu ou prévisible. Il en résulte une forme issue directement du matériau et des exigences de son évolution. Une forme souple comme une liane, épousant les pleins et déliés d'une courbe aux élans inattendus. Il en est ainsi de ma démarche personnelle: échapper à toute tentative de classification. Moving signifie mouvant, mais aussi émouvant. Autre difficulté: celle d'émouvoir en laissant tous ses droits à la logique sonore tout en l'imprégnant de son propre imaginaire. Emouvoir sans tomber dans le 'pathos'. Maurice Ohana disait: 'Méfiez-vous du sublime'. Car dans certaines situations, le pathos prend le pas sur la musique et l'étouffe. Il y a là aussi une très subtile alchimie à découvrir qui quelquefois nous dépasse et arrive quand on ne s'y attend pas. Cela peut s'appeler la grâce.

Par SCULTHORPE PETER. 'Conjuring images not just of the sounds and rhythms of the aboriginal residents but the natural ethos of the landscape as well, the score was as richly colourful as it was faultlessly performed.'Daniel Buckley, Tucson Citizen, 5 March 1991/ Répertoire / Quatuor à Cordes

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

The pieces in volume 4 of the 'Viola Recital Album? begin at the level of those in volumes 2 and 3 of the viola tutor and raise it to create little challenges in lessons. They can also be played to good effect in recitals.This delightful selection adds many fresh colours to the learner's repertoire, including an almost exotic flair in 'Danse Espagnole? (Bénoni Lagye), 'Capriccio Polka? (Salvador Leonardi) or 'The Temple Bells? (Amy Woodforde-Finden).Each piece is accompanied by duo version in which the teacher or an advanced learner can play the second part. There is also a piano part that can be played by the teacher or parents.- New recital pieces for the proven viola tutor- Well-known traditionals- Every piece in first position- Second viola part for duo performance- Piano accompanimentAll the pieces in the four 'Viola Recital Albums? represent welcome additions to the already varied repertoire of Egon Sassmannhaus's viola tutor 'Early Start on the Viola?.Kurt Sassmannshaus is the editor of many string editions in the Bärenreiter catalogue. He continues in the tradition of 'Early Start on String Instruments? founded by his father, Egon Sassmannshaus. The new editions mentioned here were developed by Kurt Sassmannshaus in conjunction with his wife Melissa Lusk and his son Christoph Sassmannshaus. / Alto Et Piano (Ou 2 Altos)

Par STRAVINSKY IGOR. Drawing on the composer’s transcriptions for violin (with Samuel Dushkin) and for cello (with Gregor Piatigorsky), Kim Kashkashian has produced a long-overdue viola version of this neoclassical masterpiece. The choice of movements from Stravinsky’s Pulcinella Suite differs between those for violin and cello - Kashkashian has in turn made a slightly different selection comprising Introduzione, Serenata, Aria, Tarantella, Toccata and Minuetto e Finale. A show-stopping addition to the repertory of modern viola music./ Répertoire / Alto et Piano

Score + Parties. Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. Bärenreiter's scholarly-critical edition of Brahms' popular Quintet in F minor for piano and strings contains everything a cutting edge Urtext edition is meant to offer. It presents a solid and wellresearched musical text based on Brahms' autograph as well as the first edition, and draws on the autograph of the two-piano version (composed six years later) for purposes of comparison. The edition also contains a discussion of the work's historical context and performance practice as well as a comprehensive Critical Commentary with an evaluation of the sources and alternative readings. The editor, Daniel Boomhower, deals with the conflicting readings between the string parts in the autograph engraver's copy and those found in small print in the first published score as well as in the separate parts for that edition. Relevant readings from the two-piano version appear in the appendix of the Critical Commentary. - New Bärenreiter Urtext edition - Exhaustive study of conflicting readings - Notes on performance practice (Eng/Ger) - Informative Foreword (Eng/Ger) and Critical Commentary (Eng)descriptive text to this edition will be provided on December 20./ Répertoire / Violon (2), Alto, Violoncelle, Piano

Par SUZUKI SHINICHI. FOR THE STUDENT This material is part of the worldwide Suzuki Method of teaching. Companion recordings should be used with these publications. In addition, there are viola part books that go along with this material. FOR THE TEACHER In order to be an effective Suzuki teacher, a great deal ongoing education is required. Your national Suzuki association provides this for its membership. Teachers are encouraged to become members of their national Suzuki associations and maintain a teacher training schedule, in order to remain current, via institutes, short-term programs and long-term programs. You are also encouraged to join the International SuzukiAssociation. FOR THE PARENT Credentials are essential for any teacher you choose. We recommend you to ask your teacher for his credentials, especially those relating to traning in the Suzuki Method. The Suzuki Method should be a positive one, where there exists a wonderful, fostering relationship between child, parent and teacher. So choosing the right teacher is of the utmost importance. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Pédagogie / Méthode / Alto et Accompagnement Piano

Par LUTHER ADAMS JOHN. The Light Within for ensemble is a companion piece to The Light That Fills the World, the harmonic colours of this new piece are more complex and mercurial than those of its outward-looking predecessor. Within this more introspective sonic space, the light changes more quickly, embracing darker hues and deeper shadows. / Date parution : 2023-10-31/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Chambre

The French titles and tempo markings in this four-movement, twenty-minute-long trio point to the composer's particular affinity to French culture. The 'Prélude? is followed by an impressive 'Invocation?, an homage to Schlee's highly regarded former teacher Olivier Messiaen in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of his birth. This movement, composed somewhat earlier than the others, was the departing point for the work. Amongst contemporary music one is not likely to find titles like those that were chosen for the final two movements: 'Allégresse? (exultation, joy) and 'Eglogue? (eclogue - a short pastoral poem). The titles give the music a lasting dramaturgical quality. They reflect the lyrical, serene atmosphere of this extraordinary masterpiece. / Violon, Violoncelle Et Alto

Par ZIMMERMANN BERND ALOIS. With this edition, Schott publishes the early two-movement string quartet by Bernd Alois Zimmermann for the first time. In a letter the composer wrote: 'I am still messing around with my quartet. This probably is the most concentrated work of composition - and the most abstract.' The string quartet belongs within the context of his early works which focussed on chamber music, unlike those of later years. Until 1945, he created a number of piano pieces and songs, a Suite for Violin and Piano as well as a String Trio (ED 7563)./ Répertoire / Quatuor à Cordes
