The concerto has always seemed an especially attractive medium to me, not necessarily because of its expectations of virtuosity (although flaunting it when you've got it certainly has its place), and emphatically not because of the perception of a concerto as a contest, but because so much of what I write feels song-like; I'm very much at home with the age-old texture of melody and accompaniment. I hope, before I move on, to have the opportunity to write concertos for all the major instruments, and perhaps some of the rarer ones as well. The oboe is not only one of the major instruments, it is one of my favorite instruments. I've always loved its sound, but since moving to New York I have gotten to hear and, in some cases, know some extremely fine oboists who broadened my appreciation of the instrument's possibilities. I especially remember a concert, probably in the late 1960's, in which Humbert Lucarelli played a Handel concerto, filling out large melodic leaps with cascading scale passages in a way that raised the hair on the back of your neck, somewhat in the way that John Coltrane's sheets of sound did. The sweeping scales in the second movement of my concerto were definitely inspired by Bert Lucarelli's performance. The first, third and fifth movements of the Concerto for Oboe and Orchestra are song-like, whereas the second and fourth have strong scherzo and dance qualities, including a couple of sections that sound like out-and-out pirate dances to me. The hymn-like tune at the beginning of the middle movement was originally begun as a vocal piece to be sung by my wife, son and daughter at my brother's wedding, but I couldn't come up with good works for it, so it ended up as an instrumental chant. The opening and closing of the concerto make use of the oboe's uniquely soulful singing. I had not heard Pamela Woods Pecha's solo playing in person when she approached me about writing a concerto, but I had heard her fine recording of chamber music for oboe and strings by the three B's (English, that is: Bliss, Bax and Britten) with the Audubon Quartet. I actually already had some oboe concerto ideas in my sketchbooks; although I didn't end up using any of those earlier ideas, it's interesting that most of them tended to share the general feeling and tonality of the eventual opening of the concerto. The work was completed on October 13, 1994. I hate the compromises involved in making piano reductions -- perhaps I would feel differently if I were a more accomplished pianist -- so I often decide to make piano reductions for four hands rather than two. My good friend Jon Kimura Parker is a terrific sight-reader, and I roped him into coming over to my place on February 17, 1995, to help me accompany Pamela on the first read-through of the piece. The first performance of the work took place on July 21, 1995, at the American Music Festival in Duncan, Oklahoma, with Mark Parker conducting the Festival Orchestra.

In composing Puszta, Jan Van der Roost wrote folk dances related to Slavonic folk music. Its character and sounds are comparable to the Hungarian and Slavonic dances by Brahms and Dvorak and to the Hungarian Rhapsodies by Liszt. All the melodies, however, are newly composed, not adapted from existing dances.

Voor zijn werk Puszta schreef Jan Van der Roost volksdansen in de geest van de Slavische volksmuziek. Het karakter en de klank zijn vergelijkbaar met de Hongaarse en Slavische dansen van Brahms en Dvorák, en met de Hongaarserapsodieën van Liszt. De melodieën zijn echter nieuw gecomponeerd en dus geen arrangementen van bestaande dansen.

Puszta< /I> von Jan Van der Roost, ist mit der slawischen Volksmusik verwandt. Klang und Charakter erinnern an die ungarischen und slawischen Tänze von Brahms und Dvorák, sowie die ungarischen Rhapsodien von Liszt. Die Melodien sind jedoch keine Bearbeitungen bestehender Tänze, sondern wurden neu komponiert.

C’est en associant les caractéristiques de la musique traditionnelle slave son talent de compositeur que Jan Van der Roost a créé une suite de quatre danses originales tziganes pour Orchestre d'Harmonie. L’orchestration, fine et légère, est d’une grande richesse sonore. Myriam Mees a arrangé deux des quatre tableaux pour Orchestre d'Accordéons. Puszta est une œuvre dansante et expressive, empreinte d’une vivacité de caractère que l’on retrouve dans les Danses hongroises de Brahms, les Rhapsodies et Danses slaves de Dvorák ou encore les Rhapsodies hongroises de Liszt.

The Adagio refers directly to Mozart's Adagio h-Moll fur Klavier KV 540. Goehr's Adagio at first follows the harmonic and motivic events of the original, while the repetitions of the two parts allow latitude for own variations and developments. The tempo increases, texture and sound are getting denser. Against the background of the original work by Mozart, Goehr draws a musical self-portrait in a subtly differentiated instrumentation, based on his own understanding.

The work explores something of how we might experience winter. The title is a play on words and the normal meaning of reels as dances infects both the first movement, with its lilting triplet rhythms, and the last movement which incorporates a vigorous reel-like unison melody that unfolds as part of a series of energetic episodes. The song of the second movement is a long singing line given to the cello, and the ensemble here, as elsewhere, is coloured in the percussion by the use of a steel pan.John Casken.

This elegant and nostalgic piece depicts gentle snow falling as twilight fades on a winter's eve. The legato theme is heard in several sections, featuring a flowing accompaniment with modal shifts as players alternate between F-sharp and F-natural. Rich harmonies, slurs, and sustained pedal-tone pitches allow students to work on playing with good tone and bow control. The contrasting staccato section sparkles like snowflakes in the golden sun, with easy meter changes and a playful syncopated feel. In a quiet finale, the piece ends with a soft diminuendo reflecting the last rays of sunlight, vanishing over the darkening horizon.

De jonge staat Israël kent, door zijn wijze van ontstaan, een grote verscheidenheid van volksmuziekstijlen. Deze Israëlische suite bevat een aantal voorbeelden hiervan. Het eerste deel heet eenvoudig Liedje van Yossy (Nigun shellYossy). Deel twee gaat over Jij en ik (At vaâ??ani). Het arrangement laat hier een dialoog horen tussen de eerste en tweede partij. Mayim, het derde deel van de suite, is een dans die het grote belang van waterin Israël onderstreept.

Der junge Staat Israel kennt, durch seine Entstehungsweise geprägt, viele Arten der Volksmusik. In dieser Israeli Suite können Sie diese Vielfalt hautnah miterleben. Der erste Teil, Nigun shell Yossi, heiÃ?t einfach Yossyâ??s Lied. Der zweite Teil erzählt von den Menschen: At vaâ??ani - Du und ich. Zwischen den ersten und zweiten Stimmen wird die Beziehung zwischen zwei Menschen zum Ausdruck gebracht. Mayim, der dritte Teil, ist ein Tanz, in dem Israels Wassermangel geschildert wird.

La longue histoire de la musique traditionnelle juive se traduit en un répertoire de chansons particulièrement riche et varié. Ces chansons sont associées la religion, lâ??histoire, aux fêtes et cérémonies juives. Les mélodies réunies dans cette suite reflètent cette grande diversité des sujets et, par leur caractère, embrassent une large palette de sentiments, du chant de lamentation au chant de joie.

The B.A.C.H. motif has been known and used for centuries, but enjoyed a great revival in the late 19th century as composers paid homage to the composer J.S. Bach. It derives from the German nomenclature, and is expressed in standard notation as Bb-A-C-B.

The Fantasia And Fugue On B.A.C.H. is one of the most famous Organ works of Franz Liszt (1811-1886). The piece was intended for the inauguration of the famous Ladegast Organ at Merseburg Cathedral, but sadly, it wasn't finished in time. Liszt then revised the work in 1870 and produced the version that survives today. A well-loved piece, no organist's library iscomplete without it.
