Firewalk is a piece for young string orchestra designed to teach pizzicato playing to the developing string player. All too often, pizzicato is treated simply as an effect or percussive accent to a passage. With this piece, pizzicato becomes the melody, harmony and rhythm. It calls for the player to use dynamics and phrasing while playing pizzicato. This work is adapted from incidental music I composed for a production of The Birth of Merlin, a play by William Shakespeare. The piece is dedicated to Helen Borgers, who directed this production by the Bard in the Yard Shakespeare Company in Long Beach, CA. The material for Firewalk comes from a section in the play where the characters are dancing a devilish tango with ethereal spirits. The music features jaunty rhythms, dynamic contrasts, and a dramatic climax. Firewalk is a diverse addition to any concert program.

The C Minor Mass K. 427 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is a fascinating work. But to speak of the Mass is inaccurate, for basically it is no more than a musical torso, full of enigmas and problems, yet full of magnificent music. It is hardly surprising that attempts have been made to create a performable version of Mozart's fragment since the 19th century. Depending on the date of reconstruction and background of the arranger, these attempts sound quite different, and often the individual style of the respective arranger can be clearly discerned. Now Frieder Bernius and Uwe Wolf have published a new edition of the Mozart mass which attempts to produce a performing version whilst maintaining the greatest respect for the available material, and without obscuring Mozart's musical manuscript with their own contributions. The joint version by Wolf, a renowned musicologist, and Bernius, an expert in historically-informed performance practice, is based on a thorough knowledge of Mozart's compositions, his notational habits, and church music practice of Mozart's day. At the same time it fully meets the requirements of today's performance practice. As well as the paperback full score, we are publishing a high-quality clothbound full score including a Facsimile Supplement with selected reproductions of the sources. A first recording of this version, with the Kammerchor Stuttgart and the Barockorchester Stuttgart conducted by Frieder Bernius, is also available. Score and part available separately - see item CA.5165100.
