Par PORTER COLE. All aboard for Cole Porter's saucy and splendid musical romp across the Atlantic! When the S.S. American heads out to sea, etiquette and convention head out the portholes as a comically eclectic cast of characters sets off on the course to true love. Peppering this hilariously bumpy ride are some of musical theatre's most memorable standards, including 'I Get a Kick Out of You,' 'You're the Top,' 'It's De-Lovely,' and of course, 'Anything Goes.' All of the music in this edition has been newly engraved for easier reading, and additional original Cole Porter lyrics have been added to match revisions applied to several of the songs during major Broadway revivals in recent decades. Titles: I Get a Kick Out of You * You're the Top * Easy to Love * Friendship * It's De-Lovely * Anything Goes * Public Enemy Number One * Blow, Gabriel, Blow * Goodbye, Little Dream, Goodbye * Be Like the Bluebird * All Through the Night * The Gypsy in Me * Buddie, Beware. / Miscellaneous, Scores, Songbooks / Recueil / Voix et Piano

In 1774 Gluck had committed himself to supplying six stage works to the Académie Royale de Musique in Paris. This job he fulfilled partially by reworking works which had already been premiered in Vienna, such as 'Orfeo ed Euridice? (BA 5845-90).In the case of 'Alceste? which was premiered in 1776 and which was the prototype of the so-called reform opera, the composer created a completely new version. The libretto was translated from the former Italian into French and was altered at the same time, but also the music was fundamentally changed: Gluck newly composed the recitatives and rearranged, enlarged or cut scenes. The initial rejection of the work by the audience caused him to further alter the third act, for example by adding the character of Hercules as Alceste's saviour. In this form the opera finally became a big success.The Bärenreiter vocal score has been carefully revised, corrected, newly engraved and brought up to Bärenreiter standards.- Revised and newly engraved Urtext edition based on the Gluck Complete Edition- French libretto with singable German translation- Preface (Ger/Eng/Fr)- Idiomatic, uncluttered piano reduction / Chant Et Piano

Paris Version Of 1779. Par GLUCK CHRISTOPH WILLIBALD. Christoph Willibald Gluck's opera in four acts about the Curse of the House of Atreus is based on a tragedy by the classical Greek dramatist Euripides. The mythological plot about the siblings Iphigenia and Orestes is characterized by hatred, ritual sacrifice, and murder and was especially popular during the 18th century. The premiere of Gluck's opera in 1779 was immensely successful. Bärenreiter now presents a carefully edited and corrected piano reduction that was newly set to meet Bärenreiter's current quality standards. An informative preface (Ger/En/Fr) supplements the edition, which also includes all appendices of the score volume the edition is based on, as contained in the Gluck Complete Edition (GGA)./ Répertoire / Chant et Piano
