Composed by the Czech composer Bohuslav Martinu in 1927, The Kitchen Revue is a ballet initially created for a sextet. This score was reviewed and tailored for an orchestra. This ballet, talking about the life of kitchen utensils, is divided in ten sections: 1. Prologue (Allegretto) 2. Introduction (Tempo de marche) 3. Danse du moulinet autour du caudron (Poco meno) 4. Danse du chaudron et du couvercle (Allegro) 5. Tango (Danse d'amour. Lento) 6. Duel (Poco a poco allegro. Tempo di Charleston) 7. Entracte (Lamentation du chaudron. Allegro moderato) 8. Marche funebre (Adagio) 9. Danse radieuse (Tempo di marche) 10. Fin du drame (Allegretto) The story focuses on the marriage of the Pot and Lid which is put at risk by the Twirling Stick, and the music features some strong jazz influences. Bohuslav Martinu (1890-1959) also wrote 13 other ballets, 15 operas and 6 symphonies and some orchestral and chamber music.

Ravel's multi-layered homage in Breitkopf UrtextIn his homage Le Tombeau de Couperin, Ravel is less specifically interested in Couperin than in French music of the late 18th century. In his preface, editor Jean-Francois Monnard explains how Ravel paid a moving and intensely personal tribute to the events of World War I with his multi-layered work. The orchestral version goes back to the original, eponymous piano suite (1914-17). Then, in 1919, the composer selected four pieces from this source, orchestrated them with all of his grace and artistry; the result provides a charming contrast to the pseudo-Baroque musical idiom, and places the pieces in a new and effective sequence. The work quickly gained great popularity immediately after the concertant world premiere, when the three dance movements of the orchestral suite were included in a ballet production.The underpinnings of Monnard's edition are provided by the most important sources. The preface features a great deal of information on the interpretation and performance history of the work. This is the fifth major Ravel work now available in print from Breitkopf Urtext.

Maxwell Davies' 'Das Rauschende der Farbe' (The Sound of Colour) is a reflection on the life and work of the German artist Paula Modersohn-Becker who died aged 31 in 1907. Maxwell Davies first got to know the artist's work whilst on a school exchange in Hamburg in 1951 and the composer has since written that Modersohn-Becker's work has influenced the way that he views the relationship between art and the landscape in which it is produced. This is a particularly significant statement for a composer whose music is often a response to the land and seascape of his adopted home in the Orkney Isles. Commissioned by the Bremer Philharmoniker and first performed by them in 2007, the 30 minute orchestral work in three movements is one of the key works by Maxwell Davies in recent years.

Jeder Kultur wohnt eine Moral inne, welche die menschlichen Handlungen bewertet und in zwei Kategorien einteilt: gut/schlecht, positiv/negativ usw. Der Titel HARTO - zu deutsch: satt, uberdrussig - bezieht sich auf das Unbehagen, das diese dichotomische Auffassung hervorruft: eine Auffassung, die gleichwohl in uns verwurzelt ist und gerade darum den Prozess Wahrnehmung Ausserung Kenntnis beeinflusst, ihm zugehort. Tatsachlich wird das musikalische Phanomen dualistisch konzipiert: Klang = Ton/Gerausch; Tonhohenanordnung = Konsonanz/Dissonanz, tonal/atonal; Struktur = symmetrischer Bau (Vordersatz/Nachsatz), das scholastische Ideal des Gleichgewichts, das seinerseits eine Symmetrieachse zur Voraussetzung hat. Diese Strukturierung des Materials ergibt sich aus dem fast ausschliesslichen Interesse des Komponisten an den expressiven Moglichkeiten des musikalischen Apparats. Die Motivation des Komponierens aus dem Drang, etwas Inneres ausdrucken zu mussen, erscheint mir jedoch heute der Grundlage zu entbehren und folglich auch unnotig. Die letztliche Daseinsberechtigung dieser Motivation liegt in der dualistischen Vorstellung, die beim Menschen zwischen Leib und Seele unterscheidet. Ein Bluff, Produkt kleinlicher Disputiersucht. Eine Analyse auf der Basis empirischer Logik stellt fest, dass es keine Seele gibt, sondern ein Nervensystem mit bestimmten Fahigkeiten, und dass nichts auszudrucken ist, weil Musik die Empfindungen des Komponisten nicht wiedergeben kann. sondern lediglich unbestimmte Eindrucke im Horer erzeugt. Da aber jede bewusste Wahrnehmung Erkenntnis ist, ware es nun die Aufgabe des Komponisten, Musik mit diesem Ziel, das heisst: Musik als Erkenntnismittel zu schaffen. Dies alles ist der Versuch, die Erkenntnistheorie von David Hume und anderen, spateren Epistemologen auf Musik anzuwenden. Der Beitrag des Empirismus zur Erkenntnistheorie wurde zwar in der wissenschaftlichen Forschung genutzt, fand jedoch in der Kunst kaum, in der Musik keinerlei Beachtung. Warum? Vielleicht, weil in der Musik noch immer der naive, >>expressive<< Komponist vorherrscht, den das elitar-bourgeoise Publikum verlangt und dem es applaudiert. Der Einwand, dass Kunst immer bourgeois war und es weiterhin ist, gibt zwar keine Losung, sollte aber auch nicht unterschatzt werden. Ich habe HARTO in zwei Teilen konzipiert, wobei jeder Teil im Verhaltnis zum anderen sowohl irgendwie das gleiche als auch das Gegenteil darstellt. Der Grund fur diese Zweiteilung des Werkes ist leicht aus dem vorhin Gesagten abzuleiten. Als Vorarbeit zur Komposition habe ich versucht, die historische dichotomische Gestaltung des Materials besonders hervorzuheben, und zwar durch eine Potenzierung jener Aspekte, die diesen -zweigeteilten<< Charakter in sich tragen. Ich habe also den Zeitverlauf lediglich als eine Folge von Spannungs- und Entspannungs-Einheiten betrachtet; ich habe Tonhohen-Anordnungen verwendet, die ausschliesslich auf Symmetrie beruhen; ich habe zweiteilige Strukturen aufgebaut, deren Halften durch eine Pause mit konstantem Wert geteilt sind; ich habe - je nach den Moglichkeiten des Orchesters - den Gerausch- oder Tonanteil des Klanges ubertrieben. Dieser Gedankengang wurde im Hinblick darauf realisiert, neue Anwendungsmoglichkeiten zu finden, die fur das Ziel einer Musik als Erkenntnismittel von Nutzen sein konnen.(Manuel Hidalgo).

Augus t 4, 1964 was commissioned by the Dallas Symphony for the 2008 celebration of President Lyndon B. Johnson’s centennial year. The 75-minute oratorio focuses on two events that came to a head on August 4, 1964, events that defined LBJ’s presidency: the discovery of the bodies of three slain civil rights workers in Mississippi, and the bombing of North Vietnam, which accelerated U.S. involvement in the Vietnam war. Gene Scheer’s thoroughly-researched libretto includes actual transcripts of White House phone conversations and government documents, as well as letters from the mothers of the slain civil rights workers.
