Joseph Phibbs' Trio Semplice for Piano Trio.Trio Semplice was written for and is dedicated to the Schubert Ensemble as part of their innovative Chamber Music 2000 series. My principal aim in writing this piece was to explore - on a modest scale - the whole concept of musical simplicity: short clearly presented ideas often involving repetition rhythmic regularity and a high degree of textural transparency scored for a small conventional chamber group. This type of simplicity is more technical than psychological however; although the work will hopefully still provide a number of challenges in performance for each of the three players. The work hasthree short movements: a slow opening movement featuring a gently rising dialogue between the violin and piano; a flowing central movement with a flexible tempo marking contrasting a persistent figure in the violin with rapid figuration in the piano finally giving way to a slower cello passage; and a rapid almost mechanical final movement with both cello and violin playing pizzicato. - Joseph Phibbs

Private studio teachers school string programs and Suzuki teachers preparing for recitals will welcome these tasteful piano accompaniments for the violin viola and cello editions of Volume 1of Brian Wicklund’s American FiddleMethod. Acknowledged as the most widely used fiddle method in the country Wicklund became aware of the increasing demand for a parallel piano accompaniment series and engaged his friend Bob Walser to take on the task of writingit. Collaborating closely with Wicklund Walser was encouraged to adhere to the chord progressions suggested in the original books but given leeway to add interesting variations in rhythm and harmony. The result is a book ofarrangements that welcomes pianists to the jamming circle. Piano playing teachers parents and siblings can now join in the fun and fiddle tunes can be featured in concerts and recitals with the support of an accompanist. Inaddition principals of accompaniment learned by playing these arrangements can be applied to accompanying other tunes the voice or other instruments. The American Fiddle Method itself provides the beginner with the elementsneeded to become a proficient fiddler. Based on many years of teaching experience the author introduces concepts and techniques that yield solid results. This method encourages creativity in the student by including variations ofthe tunes to illustrate how they can serve as a basis for improvisation.

Elena Firsova's Frozen Time for Piano Quartet.This was commissioned by the Schubert Ensemble for their project to create contemporary repertoire for teenage children hence quite a simple texture is used. It was written in 1999 and the premiere was given by pupils of the Purcell School in the Wigmore Hall in May that year. The musical material first appeared in 1996 with the short piano piece Evening Music. However I was so preoccupied with this material that soon after I made an orchestral version of the piece. I then composed the Chamber Concerto No.5 for cello and strings based on the same musical idea but with a completely different development. When Ireceived the commission for a Piano Quartet I returned again to this idea for I decided that its quasi-romantic material treated in a contemporary manner would be ideal for the purpose and could ease the young musician’s path to contemporary music. - Elena FirsovaCommission made possible by Bain & Co.

David Matthews's Y Deryn Du (The Blackbird) for Piano Quartet.The Blackbird for piano quartet was written in 1998 and is based on the Welsh folksong Y Deryn Du. In the song the blackbird gives advice to a young man in search of a wife. After rejecting the first three of the bird's suggestions he willingly accepts the fourth the bailiff's daughter. So in this instrumental setting the tune appears appropriately four times: on the viola then the cello then the violin and piano in canon. - David MatthewsCommission made possible by Mrs Elizabeth Salmon.

Piers Hellawell's A White Room for Piano Quartet.a white room was the second short piece to be commissioned by the Schubert Ensemble for Chamber Music 2000. It was written in spring of 1999 during the composition of Inside Story a double concerto for the 1999 BBC Proms. a white room complements its predecessor in that it is a hushed scherzo rather than a slow aria; the latter type was by 1999 becoming rather prevalent among Chamber Music 2000 commissions and the Schubert Ensemble suggested that I tackle the challenge of writing 'easy' fast music. It turned out to be a challenge indeed; my solution to creating rapid movement using players of unknown technique wasto employ ostinato repetition of simple fragments largely using open strings - materials of a sort that in any case feature in my wider musical language. In addition I supplemented the rhythmic drive by percussive drumming on piano and cello (also aspects typical of me).These features add up to a sound picture in which rhythmic momentum predominates over line - though a chorale fragment persistently tries to establish itself. The title a white room indicates that this piece is an uncluttered space a location in sound perhaps free of the more exotic images in Hall Of Mirrors. - Piers HellawellCommission made possible by Keith Nimmo.

Par ARENS BARBARA. Nothing succeeds like success! The great popularity of Barbara Arens? One Hand Piano (EB 8646) has encouraged the composer to produce a further collection of pieces for left or right hand alone. The forty pieces are playful, lyrical, haunting or romantic; in tango, waltz, or gavotte dance rhythms; in rock, celtic, jazz and film music styles? A very special feature: the four one hand pieces by Nikolas Sideris, Alison Mathews, Garreth Brooke and Clemens Christian Poetzsch adding a further contemporary depth to the collection. Original one hand pieces by C.P.E. Bach, Abbé Vogler, Farinelli, Mandyczewski, and Sartorio and arrangements of folk songs and a cello suite by Max Reger will prove a welcome and satisfying challenge to all those wanting to improve their weaker hand, or who are temporarily or permanently only able to play with one hand. / Date parution : 2022-11-15/ Recueil / Piano
