Par CASABLANCAS BENET. Shade and Darkness, lasting some 12:30 minutes, was co-commissioned by the Centro Nacional de Difusión Musical and the Festival Internacional de Música y Danza de Granada. The work is inspired by Turner's famous painting of the same name, subtitled 'The Night Before the Flood', although this does not imply any programmatic or even less descriptive intention, beyond the composer's admiration for the painter, and for the richness of tones and chiaroscuro, subtlety in the treatment of pictorial matter, and the dynamism and emotional force present in his work, to whose depth John Ruskin alludes: 'Nuance is in Turner, first of all, a beautiful aid to the great impression to be conveyed, but it is neither the source nor the essence of that impression; it is little more than a visible melody... preparing the feelings for the reading of the mysteries of God.' The score, generous in expressive contrasts, explores the ductility and richness of possibilities of the strings, with a very diversified use of textures, densities and colours. The formal arrangement describes a wide ternary arc, consisting of two slow and often static sections - not without ominous foreboding - and a more lively central part, punctuated by occasional turbulence and dazzling flashes of timbre, culminating in a powerful climactic process. In the final bars the four voices of the classical quartet fleetingly emerge, as a tribute to Günter Pichler, founder and member of the Alban Berg Quartet, to whom the score is dedicated, and who conducted the premiere of the work in front of the Joven Orquesta Nacional de España on 24 and 25 June 2014 at the Auditorio Nacional de Música in Madrid and in the Patio de los Mármoles del Hospital Real in Granada. / Date parution : 2022-03-15/ Répertoire / Petit Orchestre

Composed in January-February 1875, ?árka is the third symphonic poem in Smetana's six-part cycle Má vlast (My Fatherland). He first published it in a version for piano-duet issued by publisher Urbánek in 1880. The score of the first edition did not appear in print until 1888, four years after Smetana's death.Owing to the many errors in the first edition, Hugh Macdonald has based this new edition on the autograph score with annotations by Adolf Cech, who conducted the premiere on 17 March 1877. The autograph and print of the piano-duet version served as additional sources. - Classical masterpiece of Czech music in a new scholarly-critical edition - Follows on from Hugh Macdonald's Urtext edition of Vltava (The Moldau) - Detailed Foreword by Smetana expert Olga Moj?í?ová (Eng/Cz/Ger) and Critical Commentary by the editor (Eng) / Orchestre

Beethoven is presumed to have completed his 5th Symphony in early 1808- today, it is one of the most famous works of classical music of all. Its nickname 'Fate Symphony? was given to it posthumously by Beethoven's biographer Anton Schindler- a title which no longer plays a role in modern-day Beethoven scholarship. Based on the recently published musical text of the Beethoven Complete Edition and supplied with a new preface by editor Jens Dufner, one of the most vibrant and stimulating orchestral works of the standard repertoire is now available in a practical format for travel, study or the concert hall. / Conducteur De Poche

Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. One of Haydn's most famous symphonic movements, this selection will give your students a chance to develop a refined, 'Classic' style of playing. It seems like Haydn included everything in this movement---a delicately beautiful main theme, wild, minor-keyed outbursts, military percussion, and a solo trumpet fanfare. No wonder the London audiences went crazy over it! Arranged with the young orchestra in mind, all string parts are in first position. A great introduction to a too-often neglected style. / Ensemble Music, Miscellaneous, Scores / Répertoire / Orchestre

The 'Linz Symphony 'is included among Mozart's best. The first movement is cheerful and buoyant in mood, yet retains an air of dignity and poise reflective of a true master of the genre. Richard Meyer's full orchestra arrangement of this classic is a terrific addition for any concert or contest. (5:20) / Orchestre

Enjoy this fabulous arrangement of the beloved and classic overture, perfectly set for early full orchestra. (5:45) / Orchestre

Clara Wieck?s sincerest wish was that her future husband, Robert Schumann, turn his extraordinary genius toward the larger and more challenging task of composing orchestral music. Confiding in her diary in 1839, just one year before her marriage, she explained that ?it would be best if he composed for Orchestra: his imagination cannot find sufficient scope in the Piano?? In the years that followed their marriage Robert Schumann continued to devote much of his attention to Piano music, but he also found the time to comply with his beloved Clara?s wish by creating a number of musical pieces composed specifically for Piano and Orchestra. Although Schumann?s genius is most in evidence in his masterful solo Piano compositions and superb lieder, his lively and provocative imagination manifests itself with equal aplomb in the works composed for Piano and Orchestra. The same compelling romantic and lyrical qualities that captivate lovers of Schumann?s Piano music are evident in these compositions. Three of his finest are presented here in full score, including the A Minor Piano Concerto, one of the most popular and frequently performed concertos ever written. All demonstrate his remarkably innovative approach to music, diverting substantially from the classic models of the day, and display his immense creativity as well as his warmth and sensitivity. Included in this collection of Schumann?s compositions for Piano and Orchestra are: Piano Concerto In A minor, Op. 54 (published 1846) Concertstück, Op.92 (Introduction and Allegro appassionato; published 1852) Introduction and Allegro, Op. 134 (published 1855) These three works by one of the greatest masters of romanticism will delight musicians, music lovers and students, as well as devotees of Schumann. Pianists will be especially pleased to have these appealing Schumann works in one convenient edition available at an affordable price.
