Johannes Snoer is not one of the most remembered harpists today, but his didactic work was really important and can still be useful today.
For didactic purposes, he also published collections of simple pieces by great composers transcribed for harp.
Among his transcriptions there is the Adagio from Sonata n. 5 in C minor, op. 10 no. 1, by Ludwig van Beethoven, subject of this edition. The original musical text has been left unchanged, only the ornamentation has been written in full and the harp fingerings and indications relating to the movement of the pedals have been added. The work brings the dedication to Mr. H. Rutters, probably a relative of his wife Antoinette.

John Stanleyâ??s 30 Voluntaries (translatable as preludes), published in three collections as opp. 5, 6 and 7, are among the best known organ works of the 18th century. These free-style compositions were received with great appreciation by his contemporaries; the first volume, published in 1748, immediately achieved canonical status and encouraged other composers to write similar collections. The pieces, of easy to medium difficulty, are for manuals (alternatively, they can also be played on the harpsichord) and comprise two movements, slow and fast, many of which are characterized by a certain rhythmic energy and richness of color, expressed through the use of solo registers such as cornet and trumpet, with multiple echo effects, here adapted and transformed into piano, forte, and playing near the sound board effect, limiting, or rather modifying, their results.

«Sono stata un?arpista attiva per mezzo secolo. Come tutti i miei colleghi, ho dovuto affrontare le difficoltà create dalla leggenda che l?arpa non abbia né musica, né storia.
Fortunatamente, nel corso della mia carriera, ho potuto constatare che questa diceria è infondata e ho cercato di mettere in risalto almeno una piccola parte dell?immenso repertorio antico e moderno di questo strumento considerato un Paria della musica.
Il lavoro è stato piano e diretto per i libri che ho scritto sulla musica d?arpa italiana e svizzera, perché basato su precisi titoli e frontespizi; la ricerca sarebbe stata ugualmente scorrevole per i libri che non scriverò sulla musica d?arpa francese, tedesca, austriaca, britannica, boema, spagnola, portoghese e scandinava.
Per la musica olandese il cammino è un po? diverso: i pittori, i trattatisti e gli storici sono i testimoni e le guide che aiutano a ritrovare gli usi e i costumi musicali nei quali l?arpa aveva una parte importante.
Il concertista in cerca di pezzi potrà utilizzare così questo libro: dopo i trattati (capitolo II), i dipinti (capitolo III), la storia e la cronaca (capitoli IV-VII), autori e musiche (capitoli VIII e IX), biblioteche ed editori (capitoli X e XI), arriverà all?indice secondo le formazioni strumentali (capitolo XII).
Potrà cominciare dal cercare, in quest?ultimo capitolo, gli Autori adatti al suo gruppo e al suo programma; ritroverà i relativi dettagli nei capitoli VIII e IX; otterrà i pezzi seguendo le indicazioni dei capitoli X, XI e XII; e buona caccia, buono studio, buone prove!
Nel cercare di stabilire che cosa sia olandese o non-olandese nella musica antica è stata seguita l?abitudine corrente di considerare patrimonio comune dei Paesi Bassi l?arte e la storia anteriori alla separazione delle "Sette Province" nel secolo XVI; e specificamente olandese tutto ciò che accadde in quei coraggiosi territori da allora in poi.»

Harp

SKU: FG.55011-885-0

Composed by Lotta Wennäkoski. Classical, contemporary. Part. Fennica Gehrman #55011-885-0. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.55011-885-0).

Whizzing, growling and rattling – you can produce all kinds of sounds with the harp, not just the fairy-tale shimmer and glissandos that you first think of. Lotta Wennäkoski composed Sigla for harp and orchestra (2021-2022) in close collaboration with the harpist Sivan Magen, to whom the concerto is dedicated. The title of the concerto, Sigla, has different meanings in different languages. In Italian, it means a jingle; in Icelandic, it means sailing; and in Tagalog, spoken in the Philippines, it means vivaciousness or enthusiasm. Wennäkoski has not specifically referenced these in the movements of the concerto as such, but she does allow that the various meanings of the word may be identified with the music according to the listener’s perception.

The recording of the work (Ondine ODE1420-2) was premiered with the Gramophone award as the the best release in the contemporary category in October 2023.

This product is the solo part.
