Char les Camilleri (1931 - 2009) was a Maltese composer. As a teenager, he composed a number of works based on folk music and legends of his native Malta. He moved from his early influences by Maltese folk music to a musical form in which nothing is fixed and his compositions evolve from themselves with a sense of fluency and inevitability. He composed over 100 works for orchestra, chamber ensemble, voice and solo instruments. Camilleri's work has been performed throughout the world and his research of folk music and improvisation, the influences of the sounds of Africa and Asia, together with the academic study of European music, helped him create a universal style. Camilleri is recognized in Malta as one of the major composers of his generation. He died on 3 January 2009 at the age of 77. His funeral took place two days later at Naxxar, his long-time town of residence. Flags across Malta were flown at half-mast in tribute to him. Just like Bach's 6 suites for cello solo, these 6 arabesques are composed of a number of distinct movements which follow the suite principle. The melodies in these 6 arabesques are influenced by Mediterranean folk music.

Captivated by the playing of famed Franz Liszt pupil Eugen d'Albert during the 1883-1884 concert season, Peter Ilyitch Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) began work on Concert Fantasia. After an arduous composition process, on which the composer himself remarked, I stopped playing around and came up with something... but it still sounded too poor and unoriginal... Tchaikovsky laid aside Concert Fantasia and began sketching out his Third Orchestral Suite. He eventually returned to and finished Concert Fantasia in June of 1884, with the surprising addition of the second movement Contrastes. Originally composed as the first movement of his Third Orchestral Suite but ultimately rejected, Tchaikovsky reservedly added it as a second movement to Concert Fantasia. While recognizing and wishing to use the movement for its own merits, he still harbored doubts and added an alternative solo cadenza to the end of the first movement in case Contrastes was to be omitted. The Russian Musical Society under the direction of Max Erdmannsdörfer premiered the work in 1855. In the two decades after its debut, Concert Fantasia received many performances but disappeared from the repertoire until it underwent a revival in the latter part of the 20th century. Instrumentation: 3.2.2.2: 4.2.3.0: Timp.Perc(2): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): [Solo Piano].

This volume marks the 40th volume of Liszt's published piano works for two hands. The free arrangements and fantasies created in the second half of the 1830s accurately represent the composing skills of the already mature, celebrated piano virtuoso that Liszt was by that time. The themes of Trois morceaux de salon (the first work of this volume) are derived from Swiss and Spanish melodies in the first two movements, respectively. The third movement, on the other hand, quotes Giovanni Pacini's opera Niobe. Following this ''trilogy'' melodies from Bellini, Donizetti, Meyerbeer, and Mercadante's major operas appear. Examples include reminiscences and fantasies based on Ipuritani, Lucia di Lammermoor, Les Huguenots, and Il giuramento. To the best of our knowledge, the latter has not appeared in print anywhere so far.

As Ruth Crawford's work is filled with the pungent echoes of the half-step and its partner, the major seventh, Ingolf Dahl turns naturally to the modal flavor of the whole-step and minor seventh. This huge work, a 20th-century classic,is in four movements: the first is an exciting sonata-allegro exposition marked Allegro energico, which is followed by two interior fantasies on the openning theme of the sonata-allegro movement, and is copped by a lyrical Adogio cantabile e Coda, which gently concludes the work with tender reflecitions of the cantabile second theme of the first movement. 1981 piano competition, studios, colleges, libraries, professional.
