Carl Maria
von Weber's fame rests
mainly on 'Der
Freischutz'. The
unprecedented success of
this opera overshadowed
all his other works and
contributed to their
increasing fall into
oblivion. Certain works
such as 'Preciosa',
'Oberon', and
'Euryanthe', the
overtures, solo concertos
and piano sonatas, the
lieder and chamber works
enjoyed great popularity
and were widely known in
Germany and abroad as
late as the second half
of the 19th century.
However, any chance of a
revival of Weber's
influential and
substantial oeuvre was
wasted in the 1920s, when
a complete edition -
begun by Hans Joachim
Moser and with potential
contributors including
Wilhelm Kempff, Hans
Pfitzner, Max von
Schillings, Fritz Stein
and Richard Strauss -
failed after the third
volume.Ever since there
have been numerous
attempts to restart a
complete edition of
Weber's works, but as
this kind of project
would have required the
co-operation of scholars
from both sides of the
inter-German border, the
political situation after
1945 was not conducive to
any such enterprise.
Careful negotiations led
to the first tangible
steps in the 1980s. The
intention, right from the
beginning, was to place
Weber's work in context,
and not to separate his
musical output from his
influential work as a
writer, critic and
organiser in the musical
field, but to publish his
compositions together
with his letters, diaries
and other literary output
as the best way to
document the
cross-fertilisation
between his musical,
literary and practical
activities.Since the
German re-unification
both working-parties
concerned - at the
Staatsbibliothek zu
Berlin, and at the
Musikwissenschaftliches
Seminar,
Detmold/Paderborn - have
co-operated on the
complete edition of the
musical works (c. 45
volumes in 10 series:
sacred music; cantatas,
odes and other occasional
works; stage works;
lieder and vocal works;
orchestral works; chamber
music; music for piano;
piano reductions;
miscellanea, arrangements
and orchestrations; works
of doubtful attribution).
The diaries (6-8 vols.)
are edited in Berlin and
the letters (8-10 vols.)
and other writings (2
vols.) in Detmold. This
complete edition aims to
be a reliable basis of
scholarly debate as well
as for the authentic
performance practice of
Carl Maria von Weber's
music. Conforming to the
standards of recent
historico-critical
editions, the textual
material will be based on
all available authentic
sources, accompanied by a
detailed documentation of
the genesis and a list of
variants for each work.
The musicological
importance of the works
will be evaluated by
placing them in their
historical context, the
presentation of their
genesis, history and
Critical Commentaries.
The letters, writings and
diaries will be treated
as inter-related and
relevant to each other in
the commentaries,
therefore readers should
benefit from a wealth of
concise information and
cross-references.

This
, the ninth of a series
of books begun in 1983,
contains Brian Wren's 36
most recent hymns (2009
to 2012). It is nicely
presented and laid out in
a user-friendly way. The
hymns are divided into
five thematic sections:
Jesus from Cradle to
Cross; Easter Hymns;
Church and Mission;
Praise; and Metrical
Psalms. This last
section, rooted in
(though not bound by) the
Old Testament, is often
influenced by Isaac Watts
and will be of more use
to some than others; it
concludes with a
tremendous rendering of
Psalm 8; a paean of
praise which all will
love, set to a stirring
tune.
Each
section is prefaced with
a single page
introduction listing the
contents and, in some
instances, giving an
interesting insight into
Brian Wren's theology and
thinking which provides
food for contemplation.
Each hymn is printed in
words format with all the
necessary information for
inclusion in an order of
worship. Every hymn is
also printed with full
score music for
accompaniment interlined
with the words. The book
is slightly larger than
A5, and there are various
useful indexes.
The tunes range from
ancient to modern, some
very familiar, including
Candler (better known as
Ye Banks and
Braes). A number are
of a metre where
alternative tunes are
available. Those tunes
which are new vary in
ease of use; some will be
readily picked up, others
would prove challenging
for occasional use in a
small congregation but
could be used as music
group items.
These are hymns which
need to be read as a
whole and require
thought. The words are
chosen with care and
notable as much for those
not used as those
included e.g.: 'Christ,
untameably alive,/
breathe your life upon us
- / Compass, Governor and
Guide, / with us and
beyond us,/ Sky and
Sunlight, / spreading
Vine./ Spring of Living
Water,/ Truth and Wisdom,
Way and Word,/ here, and
then hereafter.' These
hymns will be useful in
worship as either sung or
read pieces, and will
also prove an invaluable
resource for private
devotion.

The
poetry on which this
composition is based is
the Ballad of External
Life (the Ballade des
äußeren Lebens) from
the pen of Viennese
author Hugo von
Hofmansthal (1874-1929).
He is known for, amongst
other things, his
libretti for the works of
Richard Strauss (Der
Rosenkavalier, Ariadne
auf Naxos, Elektra)
and as founder of the
Salzburg Festival. Von
Hofmansthal was one of
the last of the German
Symbolists. Central to
this literary movement
was the unification of
the internal and external
worlds. The search for
meaning was a cornerstone
of this fin-de-siècle
movement.In the
Ballade des äußeren
Lebens (Ballad of
External Life), the
meaninglessness
ofexistence is expressed
in restricting,
oppressive
metaphors—an
ambience that is
reflected in the music.
Ultimately, man is
capable of establishing
order from seeming chaos.
The poet expresses this
powerfully in a
non-rhyming line of
poetry: ‘And yet, he
who says “evening”
says much, A word, from
which profundity and
sorrow flow’.This
composition follows the
overall structure of the
ballad, which is written
in terza
rima—interlocking
three-line rhymes.The
choral work can be
performed by a chamber
choir, but also by a much
larger ensemble. The
parts are mainly in four
voices (SATB), although
there are also six parts
(SAATBB). One chord is
arranged for eight
voices.The composer
conducted this work at
its première, to open
the 2013 International
Choir Biennial in Aachen.
The choir was comprised
of four chamber choirs:
Aachen Youth Choir,
Carmina Mundi, Aachen
Chamber Choir and Aachen
Madrigal Choir.
Het dichtwerk
waarop deze compositie is
gebaseerd, de Ballade
des äußeren Lebens
(Ballade van het
uiterlijke leven), is
geschreven door de in
Wenen geboren schrijver
Hugo von Hoffmansthal
(1874-1929), die onder
meer bekend is als
librettist van Richard
Strauss (Der
Rosenkavalier, Ariadne
auf Naxos, Elektra)
en medeoprichter was van
de Salzburger Festspiele.
Von Hoffmansthal behoorde
tot de laatste
vertegenwoordigers van
het Duitse symbolisme.
Deze stroming stelde zich
ten doel de innerlijke en
uiterlijke wereld met
elkaar te verenigen.
Zingeving vormde een van
de hoofdthematieken
binnen deze fin de
siècle-cultuur.In de
Ballade des äußeren
Lebens wordt
dezinloosheid van het
bestaan verwoord in
beklemmende metaforen -
een atmosfeer die in de
muziek wordt
weerspiegeld.
Uiteindelijk blijkt de
mens toch in staat te
zijn orde te scheppen in
de schijnbare willekeur.
De dichter benadrukt dit
in zijn enige versregel
zonder rijm: Und dennoch
sagt der viel, der
“Abend” sagt. De
compositie volgt in
hoofdlijnen de structuur
van de ballade, die in
terzinen is opgebouwd.Het
werk kan worden
uitgevoerd door
kamerkoor, maar ook door
een veel grotere
bezetting. De zetting is
voornamelijk vierstemmig
(SATB), maar er zijn
tevens zesstemmige delen
(SAATBB). Een enkel
akkoord is zelfs
achtstemmig.Het werk ging
onder leiding van de
componist tijdens de
Internationale
Chorbiennale Aachen 2013
als openingswerk in
première. Het koor was
samengesteld uit vier
kamerkoren: Der Junge
Chor Aachen, Carmina
Mundi, Aachener
Kammerchor en Der
Madrigalchor Aachen.
Die Dichtung, auf
welcher diese Komposition
basiert, ist die
Ballade des äußeren
Lebens aus der Feder
des gebürtigen Wiener
Schriftstellers Hugo von
Hoffmansthal (1874-1929),
der unter anderem als
Librettist von Richard
Strauss (Der
Rosenkavalier, Ariadne
auf Naxos, Elektra)
und Mitbegründer der
Salzburger Festspiele
bekannt ist. Von
Hoffmansthal gehörte zu
den letzten Vertretern
des Deutschen
Symbolismus. Diese
literarische Richtung
machte sich zur Aufgabe,
die innere und die
äußere Welt miteinander
zu vereinen. Sinngebung
bildete eine der
Hauptthematiken innerhalb
dieser
Fin-de-Siècle-Strömung.
In der Ballade des
äußeren Lebens wird
die Sinnlosigkeitdes
Daseins in beklemmenden
Metaphern formuliert -
eine Atmosphäre, die
sich in der Musik
widerspiegelt.
Letztendlich scheint der
Mensch doch imstande zu
sein, Ordnung in der
scheinbaren Willkür zu
schaffen. Der Dichter
betont dies
nachdrücklich in der
einzigen Verszeile ohne
Reim: Und dennoch sagt
der viel, der Abend“
sagt. Die Komposition
folgt in ihren
Hauptzügen der Struktur
der Ballade, die in
Terzinen geschrieben
ist.Das Chorwerk kann von
einem Kammerchor, aber
auch von einem viel
größeren Ensemble
aufgeführt werden. Der
Satz ist hauptsächlich
vierstimmig (SATB), aber
es gibt auch
sechsstimmige Teile
(SAATBB). Ein einzelner
Akkord ist gar
achtstimmig.Das Werk ging
unter der Leitung des
Komponisten während der
Internationalen
Chorbiennale Aachen 2013
als Eröffnungswerk in
Premiere. Der Chor setzte
sich aus vier
Kammerchören zusammen:
Der Junge Chor Aachen,
Carmina Mundi, der
Aachener Kammerchor und
der Madrigalchor
Aachen.

America -
The sweet land of
liberty: Home to a people
who long to experience
life to the fullest; home
to a people willing to
offer and endure what
freedom demands. In the
aftermath of the
senseless and appalling
terrorist attacks on
Oklahoma City, New York
City and Washington D.C.,
we are once again
reminded that just as the
benefits of freedom touch
all of our lives, so does
the cost. As valiant as
our efforts are to defend
all that we hold dear, we
are now more aware than
ever, that it takes
Divine intervention to
give us the wisdom and
the courage to protect
all that we hold sacred.
This is a nation that
boldly proclaims her
trust in God. We are
sustained in the present
and assured of the future
by the proof of the past.
God has blessed America;
God does watch over His
children; God will lead
His people. We hold to
this truth: the temporal
and vulnerable will soon
give way to the Immortal
and Invincible... There
is a sweet land of
liberty yet to come, a
homeland that will never
be corrupted or
diminished by hatred and
fear. It is a promised
land made possible by a
just and gracious God -
the One true God: the God
of all that was, the God
of all that is, the God
of all that will be.
Great is His love; Great
is His care; Great is His
faithfulness.
