Weake
ned by a series of
chronic illnesses and
aware of his impending
death, Shostakovich looks
back on his life in
Symphony No.15 inA major,
op.141. The work opens
with cheerful
reminiscences from his
youth, featuring
quotations from his early
works and allusions to
Rossini. But already by
the second movement, a
funeral march rich with
self-quotation, the mood
changes. In the cantabile
movement which follows,
one hears the murmuring
ghosts of the past. With
echoes of Richard Wagner,
the eerie finale
ultimately instructs the
listener to remain
fearful through its
crumbling tonality. This
volume is part of the
revised and corrected new
edition of all 15
symphonies by Dmitri
Shostakovich published by
Boosey & Hawkes and
Sikorski as large format
study scores for optimal
legibility. All scores
and the related
orchestral parts have

typeset, and the

Written
for the Hilliard Ensemble
and the strings of the
Norwegian Chamber
Orchestra, the composer
sets two texts from St.
Columba about the power
of the human voice. The
work is divided into two
parts in line with the
texts, with string
orchestral episodes
preceding each. Despite
some divisi in the string
writing, The Voice of St.
Columba promotes the
clarity and directness of
the texts through its
simplicity. Part one,
'Colum's Voice', is a
description of the
extraordinary physical
and magical power of St.
Columba's voice, and its
revelatory qualities are
observed in part two, 'On
Hinba'.

'Acquainted
with Night', is a cycle
of six songs, for alto
and strings, harp and
timpani. The texts are
all concerned with
different aspects of
night. The first song,
'Lullaby' to a poem by
Beaumont and Fletcher,
seeks to evoke the
'care-charming' powers of
sleep. The second, a
setting of Robert Frost's
'Acquainted with the
night', is concerned with
the lonely world of a
strange city at night and
the music is
characterised by an
insistently repeated
figure in the
accompaniment. The third
song contrasts the
calmness of the night
with the turbulence in a
lover's mind - the poem
is by the Earl of Surrey.
'Out in the dark' a poem
by Edward Thomas, is the
text of the fourth song.
It is in the form of a
scherzo and deals with
the mystery and
strangeness of night,
and, as the poet puts it,
the 'might' of night. It
is, as the poet says, a
hymn to night and the
chordal nature of the
accompaniment suggests
this quality. This song
leads directly into the
last, which is in fact a
reprise of the opening
'Lullaby' so completing
the cycle.

gnised as one of the

Williams incidental music
for Gilbert Murray's
English translation of
Euripides Iphigenia in
Tauris is now available
for purchase. A preview
of the production

remarked of Vaughan
Williams musical setting:
This music is no
experiment in style. It
would seem, rather, as
though the composer had
disclaimed all styles and
all schools, and found
direct inspiration in the
material of the poet's
inspiration, and the
result is something of
undeniable beauty. .

A memorable
musical competition
commissioned by the
emperor Joseph II took
place on 7 February 1786
as part of a festival in
the orangery of the
Schönbrunn palace. A
German Singspiel ensemble
performed Mozart’s
“Schauspieldirektor
†whilst Antonio
Salieri’s
“Prima la musica e
poi le parole†was
performed by the Italian
court singers and
musicians. This charming
opera satire belongs to
the genre of
“metamelodrammaâ
in which the opera
itself becomes the
subject of the action.
The people who are part
of an opera production,
for example the
librettist, composer and
prima donna, appear as
characters on the stage
and are presented in a
humorous self-reflection.
In this ‘theatre
about theatre’
Salieri parodies the
music from Giuseppe
Sarti’s
“Giulio
Sabino†in his
insert arias, thus
playing on the music
which was totally
familiar with the
audience of the time. By
reflecting on the
musical-dramatic style of
that period and
discussing whether
‘the word’
or ‘the
music’ should take
priority, this
masterpiece is considered
to be an early forerunner
to Richard
Strauss’s
“Capriccioâ€.<

the score is published as

There are several
alterations regarding the
libretto text, stage
directions, articulation,
ornamentation, etc. which
have been incorporated

“Giulio

Brahms
composed his Triumphlied
for eight-part chorus,
solo baritone and
orchestra as a direct
reaction to the victory
of the German army in the
Franco-Prussian War of
1870/71 and the
consequent founding of
the German Empire.
Similar to the German
Requiem completed shortly
before, Brahms himself
compiled the text from
the Bible, in this case
from Chapter 19 of the
Book of Revelations.
Because of the somewhat
melodramatic tone of the
composition and the
nationalistic background
to the works genesis, in
recent years the
Triumphlied has seldom
been heard in concert
halls. Unlike
overly-patriotic
occasional works such as
Richard Wagner's
Kaisermarsch, the
Triumphlied is true
Brahms and is a musically
rich composition. This
study edition takes the
musical text from the
Brahms Complete Edition
(HL 51486030), thereby
representing the highest
scholarly precision. The
Appendix contains an
exciting new discovery, a
previously-unknown early
version of the 1st
movement in C major,
which was only
rediscovered in 2012 in
Bremen.

This is the
full score of Aheym For
Orchestra , composed by
Bryce Dessner , best
known as the guitarist of
The National, but also an
acclaimed composer in his
own right. If so desired,
this work can be
performed with Strings
alone: the Wind and
Percussion instruments
are optional. Composed in
2009 for the Kronos
Quartet for their
performance in Brooklyn's
Prospect Park for the
Celebrate Brooklyn!
festival, Aheym (meaning
'homeward' in Yiddish)
was directly inspired by
his parents' migration to
Brooklyn. The score in
this edition was first
performed by the London
Sinfonietta at the
Southbank Centre in
London on the 9th of
October 2012. The work
lasts around 8 minutes
and isfilled with dynamic
tempo changes, a mix of
staccato and smooth
playing and all-round
excitement. It's a
fantastic piece to play
and the genius
composition will keep
audiences on their
toes.
